Script to shot-by-shot frames
Describe a scene and get a sequence of framed shots — wide, medium, close-up — instead of one image. Each frame is a real composition you can drop into a board and reorder in Flow.
AI Storyboard Generator
A storyboard is the visual plan for a film, ad, or animation — the sequence of shots drawn out before anything is filmed, so everyone can see the story shot by shot. Traditionally that means hours of sketching. An AI storyboard generator renders each frame from a text description, keeps the same characters and setting across the sequence, and lets you reorder shots on a canvas. PonPon goes one step further: the same frames you plan with can be generated into real video, so your storyboard becomes the first cut of the actual film.
Features
What you can do
Consistent characters and sets
A storyboard only works if the hero looks the same in shot 1 and shot 8. PonPon locks character identity and setting across the whole sequence so the board reads as one scene.
Direct the camera per shot
Specify angle, framing, and movement for every frame — establishing wide, over-the-shoulder, low-angle hero shot. Plan the visual language of the scene, not just what happens in it.
From board to moving animatic
Turn static frames into a moving animatic: animate each shot and play the sequence in order to feel the pacing before you commit to a full shoot.
Storyboard becomes the film
Unlike a sketch you throw away, every PonPon frame can be generated into video. Your storyboard is the first pass of the real movie — plan and produce in the same place.
Get started
How to use
1
Write your scene or script
Start with the action — what happens, where, and to whom. A short scene description or a script excerpt is enough to break into shots.
2
Break the scene into shots
List the shots in order with the camera for each ("Shot 1: wide establishing", "Shot 2: close-up reaction"). Numbered shots keep the board in sequence.
3
Define your cast once
Describe the main character and setting up front and reuse them so identity stays consistent across every frame of the board.
4
Generate and arrange frames
Generate each shot, then arrange them in reading order in the Flow canvas. Reorder, swap, or regenerate any frame until the sequence flows.
5
Turn the board into an animatic
Animate the frames into moving shots to preview pacing, then generate the full scene as video when the board is approved.
Showcase
Built for creators
Whether you're a solo creator, an agency, or a brand — every model adapts to how you work.
Shot 1 — Establishing wide
Shot 1: Wide establishing shot of a lone figure entering an empty dojo at dawn, long shadows, calm before action.
Shot 2 — Character medium
Shot 2: Medium shot of a character at a rain-streaked bus stop at night, contemplative, cool tones.
Shot 3 — Detail insert
Shot 3: Close-up insert of hands pouring coffee, warm afternoon light, shallow depth of field.
Shot 4 — Over-the-shoulder
Shot 4: Over-the-shoulder two-shot of characters facing off, camera pushing in, rising tension.
Shot 5 — Low-angle hero
Shot 5: Dramatic low-angle hero shot of a character standing tall against the sky.
Shot 6 — Resolving wide
Shot 6: Wide resolving shot, a figure walking toward a sunset horizon, calm restored.
Who it's for
Use cases
Film & video pre-production
Block out a scene shot by shot before a shoot — angles, framing, blocking — so cast and crew arrive with the whole sequence already visualized.
Ad & commercial boards
Pitch a commercial as a real visual board instead of a text treatment. Clients approve a storyboard they can actually see, with the right product and talent in frame.
Animation & anime planning
Plan an animated sequence or anime clip frame by frame, holding character designs steady across every shot before animating.
Pitch decks & concept boards
Drop a generated shot sequence into a pitch to sell a concept on sight — a board communicates tone and story in seconds where a script takes minutes.

FAQ
Questions & answers
What is an AI storyboard generator?
It's a tool that turns a script or scene description into a sequence of visual shots — your storyboard — without drawing. PonPon generates each frame, keeps characters consistent across the sequence, and lets you arrange shots on a canvas.
Can I turn a script into a storyboard?
Yes. Break your script into a numbered shot list, generate each shot, and lay them out in order in PonPon Flow. You get a shot-by-shot board you can reorder and revise instantly.
How do I keep the same character across every frame?
Define the character once and reuse them as a reference so identity stays locked — the same face, wardrobe, and setting appear in every shot of the board.
Can the storyboard become a real video?
Yes — that's the difference. Every frame can be animated into a moving shot and generated into a full scene, so your storyboard is the first cut of the actual film, not a sketch you throw away.
Do I need to know how to draw?
Is the AI storyboard generator free?
Yes. Free daily credits cover frame generation. Start on the canvas and see pricing for larger projects and higher-volume plans.
