= Storyboard & Panels =

== Overview ==
The '''Storyboard & Panels''' feature in [[ACT3AI|ACT 3 AI]] lets you visually map out your story before or during production.
It automatically generates or imports storyboard frames for each [[Scene|scene]] and [[Shot|shot]], linking them directly to your [[Script_Editor|script lines]] and [[Timeline|timeline]] in the [[Editor|Editor Workspace]].

You can create storyboards manually, import them from design tools, or generate them using AI models like [[Google_Veo_3|Google Veo 3]], [[Runway|Runway Integration]], or [[Wan|WAN AI Integration]].

== Key Features ==
* '''Script-Linked Panels:''' Every panel is tied to a [[Shot|shot]] or [[Scene|scene]] in your script for perfect continuity.
* '''AI Panel Generation:''' Create storyboard frames instantly from [[Shot_Prompting|shot prompts]] or scene descriptions.
* '''Drag-and-Drop Layout:''' Rearrange panels within scenes or across acts.
* '''Multi-View Support:''' See script text, shot data, and panels side-by-side.
* '''Export Options:''' Download as PDF, image sheets, or upload to collaboration platforms.

== How to Create Storyboards ==
# Open your project in the [[Editor]] and switch one column to '''Storyboard & Panels''' view.
# Select a [[Scene|scene]] or [[Shot|shot]] in the [[Outline_Panel|outline panel]].
# Click **+ Add Panel**:
## '''Manual Upload:''' Import PNG, JPG, or SVG drawings from your local files.
## '''AI Generate:''' Choose a render engine ([[Google_Veo_3]], [[Runway]], [[Wan]]) and enter your visual prompt.
## '''From Script:''' Let ACT 3 AI auto-generate from the corresponding [[Script_Editor|script lines]].
# Arrange panels in sequence and link them to their respective shots.

== Panel Editing ==
* Rename panels for clarity (e.g., "CU – Hero's Eyes").
* Add [[Camera_Directions|camera movement]] or [[Lighting_Notes|lighting notes]] to each panel.
* Attach [[Reference_Images|reference images]] or [[Location_Assets|location assets]] for production planning.
* Delete or replace panels without affecting the [[Script_Editor|script]].

== AI-Generated Panels ==
* AI generation consumes [[Credit_System|credits]] based on resolution and model.
* Models:
** [[Google_Veo_3|Google Veo 3]] – Realistic/photographic previews.
** [[Runway|Runway Integration]] – Stylized/experimental looks.
** [[Wan|WAN AI Integration]] – Fast low-latency previews for collaboration.
* Adjust prompt style, camera angle, lighting, and tone for each shot.

== Collaboration ==
* Co-edit storyboards in real time with your team.
* Comment directly on panels to suggest changes.
* Lock panels once approved to prevent accidental edits.

== Exporting ==
* Export entire storyboards as:
** PDF – Printable, client-ready format.
** PNG/JPG sheets – For quick sharing.
** Linked media – Embed in [[Documentation|documentation]] or [[Pitch_Decks|pitch decks]].
* Maintain script-panel links on export for easy reference.

== Tips for Best Results ==
* Keep panels clear and focused on one action or moment.
* Maintain visual continuity – ensure characters, sets, and props match across panels.
* Use panels as a communication tool between writers, directors, and production teams.

== Troubleshooting ==
* '''Panel not linked to shot''' → Drag the panel thumbnail onto the target shot in the outline.
* '''AI result off-target''' → Refine your [[Shot_Prompting|prompt]] or change the render engine.
* '''Missing assets in export''' → Ensure all panels are approved and saved before exporting.
