Example Output
Storyboard Frame 3/8 — "Product Reveal"
[Frame shows a medium close-up shot of a woman in her 30s with dark curly hair and a navy blazer, eyes widening with subtle surprise as she looks at a glowing laptop screen. The laptop screen casts soft blue light on her face. Background is a modern minimalist office, slightly out of focus. Warm overhead lighting with cool screen bounce.]
Camera: Static medium close-up, slight zoom in indicated by converging arrows.
Transition: Cut from Frame 2 (wide shot of her walking to desk).
Audio note: UI chime sound effect, subtle music swell.
Style: Clean digital storyboard illustration, confident line work, limited color palette (navy, warm skin tones, blue screen glow). Frame border with "F3" label in top-left corner. Movement arrows showing slight lean-in of character toward screen. Small note box below: "Hold 2 seconds — this is the emotional beat before the product demo." --ar 16:9 --v 6.1
Tips for Best Results
- 💡Generate all frames in a single session if possible and reference the character description identically each time — AI consistency drops significantly between sessions
- 💡Include camera movement arrows and transition notes in your prompt to make the storyboard actually useful for production, not just pretty pictures
- 💡Use "--seed [number]" in Midjourney to maintain more consistent character appearance across sequential frames
