AI System for Storyboard Generation
Storyboarding is a mandatory stage of any video project: film, advertising, animation, presentation. Manual work by an illustrator on a typical 30-second spot (15–20 frames) takes 1–3 days. AI system generates rough storyboard from script in minutes while maintaining character and environment consistency.
System Architecture
Script Parser: LLM (GPT-4o) parses script into scenes, extracts: location, characters present, action, camera angle, lighting, mood. Output format — structured JSON describing each frame.
Visual Generation:
- Stable Diffusion XL + ControlNet (depth, pose) for frame generation
- Character consistency via IP-Adapter + LoRA adapter for specific project
- Environment consistency via style transfer and negative prompts
- Aspect ratios: 16:9, 4:3, 2.35:1, vertical 9:16
Annotation Layer:
- Automatic frame captions (action, dialogue, technical note)
- Movement direction arrows for camera movement
- Export to PDF, Final Draft, Celtx
Development and Refinement
3–4 weeks: Character consistency module setup (LoRA), script parser development, web interface with drag-and-drop frame editing.
Application
Advertising agencies, animation studios, independent filmmakers. Especially valuable for pitch presentations — rapid visual concept representation to client before production begins.
