What problem does it solve? Directing a scene for AI video generation requires deciding shot size, angle, focal length, camera movement, blocking, and cross-shot continuity, and ad-hoc choices produce clips that drift in identity, break the axis, or fail to cut together. This Skill turns a scene's intent, characters, and space into an executable shot plan and storyboard with explicit continuity anchors. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Shot Decision Rules: Enforces function-before-size, one dominant movement per shot, axis-of-action conservation, and first/last-frame continuity contracts. - Storyboard Sheet Compression: Packs a shot plan into a single N-grid storyboard image with a panel manifest, usable directly as a storyboard reference for video generation models. - Reference Library Routing: Routes on demand to cinematic language, blocking and staging, continuity bible, prompt lexicon, 100+ shot recipes, and 20 director style modules. - Use Case: Given a 22-second scene of a courier delivering a letter, produce a beat sheet, a 15-column shot plan with risk grading, and a 5x5 storyboard grid that a video model can expand into clips. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to break this scene into shots and produce a storyboard sheet with shot sizes, lenses, movements, and continuity anchors for each beat.
