SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Storyboarding social content is time-consuming and error-prone when translating ideas into shot-by-shot visuals across platforms. This skill automates the creation of detailed storyboards and shot lists, ensuring alignment with platform specs and retention-driven storytelling.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Shot-by-shot storyboard generation for TikTok, Reels, YouTube Shorts, and UGC campaigns
  • Platform-specific framing, timing, and safe-zone guidance to maximize cross-platform compatibility
  • Visual Output: storyboard rendered on a design canvas with per-shot metadata and a structured layout
  • Script structure guidance (hook, value delivery, CTAs) and variable shot types (CU, MS, WS, POV, B-roll)
  • A/B testing plan and production notes to streamline shoot-day execution
  • Canvas-driven output enabling generation of per-shot images via the media canvas system
  • Clear alignment with platform specs, retention principles, and creative formulas for hooks

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a shot-by-shot storyboard for a TikTok or Instagram Reels campaign?

Yes, you can generate storyboards for YouTube Shorts and UGC ads. The skill applies platform-specific constraints and retention-driven storytelling principles to ensure your visual output aligns with the required formatting and safe zones for each social video platform.

What is the process for translating a video concept into a structured shot list?

To start generating storyboards, you need a video concept, target platform, and duration. Additionally, the skill requires a YAML frontmatter block in the SKILL.md file containing the name and description, while optional scripts, references, and assets can be added to refine the output.

Can I generate individual images for each shot in my social video storyboard?

Yes, you can generate individual images for each shot. The skill utilizes a canvas-driven output system that enables the generation of per-shot visuals via the media canvas system, alongside detailed production notes and an A/B testing plan to streamline shoot-day execution.

What are the limitations when using automated storyboarding for cross-platform social videos?

A limitation of automated storyboarding is that it relies entirely on the provided concept and platform specs. While it outputs framing and timing guidance, it cannot account for physical location constraints or talent availability during actual shoot-day execution.
