[Install instructions](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/inference-sh/skills/refs/heads/main/cli-install.md) ``` infsh login # Generate a storyboard panel infsh app run falai/flux-dev-lora --input '{ "prompt": "storyboard panel, wide establishing shot of a modern city skyline at sunset, cinematic composition, slightly desaturated colors, film still style, 16:9 aspect ratio", "width": 1248, "height": 832 }' # Stitch panels into a board infsh app run infsh/stitch-images --input '{ "images": ["panel1.png", "panel2.png", "panel3.png"], "direction": "horizontal" }' ``` ## Shot Types Abbreviation Name Framing When to Use **ECU** Extreme Close-Up Eyes only, a detail Intense emotion, revealing detail **CU** Close-Up Face fills frame Emotion, reaction, dialogue **MCU** Medium Close-Up Head and shoulders Interviews, conversations **MS** Medium Shot Waist up General dialogue, action **MLS** Medium Long Shot Knees up Walking, casual interaction **LS** Long Shot Full body Character in environment **WS** Wide Shot Environment dominant Establishing location, scale **EWS** Extreme Wide Shot Vast landscape Epic scope, isolation, transitions ### Generating Each Shot Type ``` # Close-Up — emotion focus infsh app run falai/flux-dev-lora --input '{ "prompt": "close-up shot of a woman face showing concern, soft dramatic lighting from the left, shallow depth of field, cinematic film still, slightly desaturated", "width": 1248, "height": 832 }' # Medium Shot — dialogue scene infsh app run falai/flux-dev-lora --input '{ "prompt": "medium shot of two people talking across a table in a cafe, warm afternoon light through windows, natural composition, cinematic film still, 35mm lens look", "width": 1248, "height": 832 }' # Wide Shot — establishing infsh app run falai/flux-dev-lora --input '{ "prompt": "wide establishing shot of a futuristic laboratory interior, dramatic overhead lighting, long corridor with glass walls, sci-fi atmosphere, cinematic composition, anamorphic lens style", "width": 1248, "height": 832 }' ``` ## Camera Angles Angle Effect When to Use **Eye Level** Neutral, natural Default for most scenes **High Angle** Subject looks small, vulnerable Showing weakness, overview **Low Angle** Subject looks powerful, dominant Authority, heroism, threat **Bird's Eye** God-like overview Maps, establishing geography **Worm's Eye** Extreme power, awe Architecture, towering figures **Dutch Angle** Unease, disorientation Tension, madness, action **Over-the-Shoulder (OTS)** Viewer positioned with character Conversations, POV ## Camera Movement Movement Description Emotion **Pan** Camera rotates horizontally (on tripod) Scanning, following, revealing **Tilt** Camera rotates vertically (on tripod) Revealing height, power **Dolly** Camera moves toward/away from subject Intimacy (in), distance (out) **Truck** Camera moves laterally Following alongside, revealing **Crane/Jib** Camera moves up or down vertically Grand reveals, transitions **Zoom** Lens focal length changes (camera stays) Focus shift, dramatic emphasis **Steadicam/Gimbal** Smooth handheld tracking Immersion, following action **Handheld** Deliberate camera shake Urgency, documentary feel, chaos **Static** Camera doesn't move Stability, observation, tension In storyboards, indicate movement with arrows drawn on panels. ## Continuity Rules ### The 180-Degree Rule Imagine a line (axis) between two characters in conversation. The camera must stay on ONE side of that line. ``` Character A Character B ●─────────────────● / \ / CAMERA ZONE \ / (stay on this side) \ 📷 📷 📷 Camera 1 Camera 2 Camera 3 ``` **Crossing the line** confuses the viewer about spatial relationships. Only cross intentionally (with a neutral shot in between or a visible camera move). ### Match on Action When cutting between two angles of the same action, the action must continue seamlessly: ``` Panel A: Hand reaches for door handle (medium shot) Panel B: Hand grabs door handle (close-up) ↑ Action continues from same point ``` ### Eyeline Match When a character looks at something, the next shot should show what they're looking at, from their approximate point of view. ``` Panel A: Character looks up and to the right Panel B: The object they see, framed from slightly below-left ``` ### Screen Direction If a character moves left-to-right in one shot, they should continue left-to-right in the next. Reversing direction implies they turned around. ## Panel Layout ### Standard Formats Layout Panels Use For 2x3 (6 panels) 6 per page Detailed scenes, dialogue 3x3 (9 panels) 9 per page Action sequences, montages 2x2 (4 panels) 4 per page Key moments, presentations Single 1 per page Hero shots, critical moments ### Panel Annotation Format Each panel should include: ``` ┌────────────────────────────────────┐ │ SCENE 3 — SHOT 2 │ ← Scene and shot number │ │ │ [Generated image here] │ ← Visual │ │ ├────────────────────────────────────┤ │ Shot: MS, eye level │ ← Shot type and angle │ Movement: Slow dolly in │ ← Camera movement │ Duration: 4 sec │ ← Estimated duration │ Action: Sarah opens the letter │ ← What happens │ Dialogue: "This changes everything"│ ← Any spoken lines │ SFX: Paper rustling, clock ticking │ ← Sound effects │ Music: Tension builds │ ← Music cue └────────────────────────────────────┘ ``` ## Storyboard Workflow ### Step 1: Shot List Before generating images, write a shot list: ``` SCENE 1 — OFFICE, DAY 1.1 WS - Establishing shot of office building exterior, morning 1.2 MS - Sarah walks through office, carrying coffee 1.3 CU - Sarah's face, notices something on her desk 1.4 ECU - An envelope on the desk, unfamiliar handwriting 1.5 MS - Sarah picks up envelope, opens it 1.6 CU - Sarah's eyes widen as she reads 1.7 ECU - Key phrase on the letter (insert text) ``` ### Step 2: Generate Panels Use consistent style across all panels: ``` # Establish a consistent style prompt suffix STYLE="cinematic film still, slightly desaturated, warm color grade, 35mm lens, shallow depth of field" # Panel 1.1 — Wide establishing infsh app run falai/flux-dev-lora --input "{ \"prompt\": \"wide shot of a modern glass office building exterior, morning golden hour light, people entering, $STYLE\", \"width\": 1248, \"height\": 832 }" --no-wait # Panel 1.2 — Medium shot infsh app run falai/flux-dev-lora --input "{ \"prompt\": \"medium shot of a professional woman walking through a modern open office, carrying coffee cup, morning light through windows, $STYLE\", \"width\": 1248, \"height\": 832 }" --no-wait # Panel 1.3 — Close-up infsh app run falai/flux-dev-lora --input "{ \"prompt\": \"close-up of a woman face looking down at her desk with curious expression, soft office lighting, $STYLE\", \"width\": 1248, \"height\": 832 }" --no-wait ``` ### Step 3: Assemble Board ``` # Stitch panels into rows infsh app run infsh/stitch-images --input '{ "images": ["panel_1_1.png", "panel_1_2.png", "panel_1_3.png"], "direction": "horizontal" }' infsh app run infsh/stitch-images --input '{ "images": ["panel_1_4.png", "panel_1_5.png", "panel_1_6.png"], "direction": "horizontal" }' # Then stitch rows vertically for full page infsh app run infsh/stitch-images --input '{ "images": ["row1.png", "row2.png"], "direction": "vertical" }' ``` ## Style Consistency Tips - Use the **same style suffix** across all panels (lens, color grade, lighting) - Use **FLUX LoRA** if you need consistent characters across panels - Keep the **same aspect ratio** for all panels - Generate **more panels than you need** and select the best - If a panel doesn't match the style, regenerate with adjusted prompt ## Common Mistakes Mistake Problem Fix Crossing the 180-degree line Confuses spatial relationships Stay on one side or use neutral shot All same shot type Visually boring, no rhythm Vary between CU, MS, WS No establishing shot Viewer doesn't know where they are Start scenes with WS or EWS Too many shots per scene Pacing drags 5-8 shots per scene is typical Inconsistent style between panels Looks like different projects Use same style prompt suffix Missing annotations Panels are ambiguous Always note shot type, movement, action ## Related Skills ``` npx skills add inference-sh/skills@ai-image-generation npx skills add inference-sh/skills@ai-video-generation npx skills add inference-sh/skills@video-prompting-guide npx skills add inference-sh/skills@prompt-engineering ``` Browse all apps: `infsh app list` Weekly Installs4.5KRepository[inferen-sh/skills](https://github.com/inferen-sh/skills)GitHub Stars159First Seen6 days agoSecurity Audits[Gen Agent Trust HubPass](/inferen-sh/skills/storyboard-creation/security/agent-trust-hub)[SocketPass](/inferen-sh/skills/storyboard-creation/security/socket)[SnykFail](/inferen-sh/skills/storyboard-creation/security/snyk)Installed onclaude-code3.5Kgemini-cli3.2Kcodex3.2Kamp3.2Kgithub-copilot3.2Kkimi-cli3.2K --- *Source: https://skills.yangsir.net/skill/sm-storyboard-creation* *Markdown mirror: https://skills.yangsir.net/api/skill/sm-storyboard-creation/markdown*
