For filmmakers and creators

Pitch the spot before you shoot it.

Bring an idea, a script or your meeting notes. Leave with a vision, a script, a cast that looks the same in every frame, and a storyboard anyone on your project can open from one link.

  1. 01MeetingHad a creative call? Drop in the transcript and the idea gets pulled out of the talk.
  2. 02VisionTone, look and references, gathered on one page you can edit.
  3. 03ScriptYour vision becomes a screenplay, scene by scene. Or bring your own script.
  4. 04CastConsistent characters pulled from your descriptions, or upload your own.
  5. 05StoryboardEvery shot drawn, four takes to pick from, video clips made right on the board.
  6. 06LinkOne shareable link for your whole team. No sign in, nothing to download.
  7. 07On setShoot with the board in your pocket. Change a shot and every phone updates on its own, within seconds.

From the first meeting to the set

One tool for the whole road from idea to shoot day.

prePro.Studio is pre-production in one place. Every step hands its work to the next, so you never copy a thing between apps. Here is the whole trip, in seven steps:

  1. The meetingHad a creative call with the client, the director and the team? Upload the transcript and start seeing it right away. Send it to the team and iterate quickly.
    Start here
  2. The visionTone, look and references, gathered into one document you can edit.
  3. The scriptThe vision becomes a screenplay, scene by scene.
  4. The castCharacters are found in the script. Pick each look once.
  5. The storyboardEvery shot drawn, with images and video clips made in place.
  6. The linkSend your team one link. No account needed to open it.
  7. On setChange a shot on the day. Everyone on the link sees it: the board updates on its own, within seconds, no reload.

The app

This is what you will be working in.

Five steps, one project, nothing to copy between apps. These are real screens from real projects, not drawings of the app. Each one is a close-up of the part of the screen that does the work.

01 / Vision

The vision

Talk the idea through with the assistant, or paste your meeting notes. The tone, the look and the references land in one document you can edit like any other.

02 / Script

The script

The vision becomes a properly formatted screenplay, scene by scene. Already have a script? Bring it, and keep your wording if you want to. You can download the screenplay.

03 / Cast

The cast

Every character, location and prop is found in the script. Pick each look once and it is used in every shot.

04 / Director's treatment

The shot list

Each scene becomes shots, with the camera, the light and the image and video prompts written for you. Read it, change any word.

05 / Storyboard

The storyboard

Every shot drawn, four takes to choose from, video clips made in place. Share it with one link.

What you leave with

A clean scriptThe story pulled out of the conversation; the side talk left behind.
A formatted screenplayIndustry-standard layout, ready to download.
Character profilesFound in your words, with looks, roles and relationships.
Character imagesPortrait options for each character; pick one.
A complete shot listEvery shot the story needs, with camera notes.
Image and video promptsWritten for every shot, so the frames and clips make themselves.

Built for the way you work

You have the idea. Now everyone can see it.

Showing a client or a crew what you mean used to take days of sketching, or a team and expensive tools. Describe the ad, the music video, the short film or the YouTube video, and walk in with a board instead. No design skills, no production team.

Walking into the pitch today

A description they have to picture for themselves

"So it opens in a kitchen, early, soft light. She fills the bottle at the tap, and we go really close, you can see the dew on the steel. Then she drinks, clips it to her bag, and she's out the door. Can you picture it?"

Five people in the room, five different kitchens.

A real example, made in prePro.Studio

One 30-second spot, start to finish

A real project made in prePro.Studio: “Harbor: Morning Ritual”, a commercial for a steel water bottle. Read left to right: what goes in, the character it found, and the shots it drew.

In :: the brief
INT. KITCHEN - MORNING

A hand turns the tap.
Water fills the Harbor
steel bottle. Dew beads
on the cold steel.
MIRA drinks, clips the
bottle to her bag and
heads out.
Paste a script, a brief, or talk it through with the assistant.

3Medium: Mira drinks
4Insert: clip to the bag
Four shots, two of them with a second take, same Mira and same bottle in each. Every shot comes with its camera notes and a video prompt.

The character system

Characters that stay consistent.

When you talk through a concept, you naturally describe your characters: how they look, what they wear, who they are in the story. prePro.Studio picks those details up for you. It then makes portrait options for each character. Pick the one that matches your vision, and that look becomes the reference for every shot they appear in.

Mira, chosen look

One chosen portrait (blue border), then the same Mira in four shots of the Harbor storyboard: drinking, clipping the bottle to her bag, and her hand at the tap in two takes.

Found for youCharacters pulled from your transcript or script, with descriptions, roles and relationships.
Portraits to choose fromSeveral image options for each character, made from those descriptions.
Locked across every shotOnce you pick a look, it stays the same in every frame.
Built into every promptCharacter references go into each shot's image prompt automatically.

Not only characters

Same place. Same product. Every shot.

Characters are only part of it. Every location and every object that matters gets its own reference card too, just like a character. Pick the look once, and every shot that uses it is drawn from that card. Here are four real storyboards.

Storyboard 1 of 4 · Product spotHarbor: Morning Ritual
CharacterMiraHer face, hair and clothes, chosen once.
LocationThe kitchenThe room, the tap and the morning light.
ObjectThe Harbor bottleThe exact steel bottle the spot is selling.
Every shot is drawn from these cards

Shot 2: dew on the steel

Shot 4: clipped to her bag

In a product spot the product has to look like the product in every frame. Without a reference card, each shot would draw its own idea of "a steel bottle". With one, all four shots show the same bottle.

Your material, every step

Bring your own references. On every step.

prePro.Studio does not ask you to start from nothing. Whatever you already have, the stills you love, the actor you cast, the place you scouted, goes straight into the project and shapes every shot after it.

Vision board
Your style references

Drop in stills, frames from films you love, a mood board. Say what you like about each one and it is kept as a reference for the whole project.

Cast
Your own characters

Already cast the lead, or drew the character yourself? Upload the photo or the art, and that is the look every shot uses.

Locations
Your location scouts

Scouted the real place? Upload the photos and they become the location reference, so the board is set where you will actually shoot.

Storyboard
Your notes on any shot

Add an image in the storyboard chat to show what a shot should look like, and change it in plain words.

Nothing is locked to what the AI made.Swap any look for your own image at any step, and the shots you make from then on are drawn from it.

Collaboration

Built for teams. Ready for the set.

Bring your producer, DP, client or co-creator into the same project. On the day, the light moves or the client wants a closer shot: swap it in the studio, and everyone on the link sees the new board. It updates on its own, within seconds, no reload.

Questions, answered

15 answers. Pick a topic, then open any question.
Who is it for?

Anyone who makes video: commercials, music videos, short films, YouTube and social, skits, product demos and explainers, even a dream you want to see. Solo or with a crew.

What do I need to get started?

Nothing but your idea. Start a Creative Meeting where you collaborate with AI to develop your vision, or upload an existing transcript from a brainstorm session. We'll transform it into a complete visual storyboard.

What if I don't have a meeting transcript?

No problem. Start a Creative Meeting with our AI agent who will guide you through the process. They'll ask thoughtful questions about your project, help develop your vision, and generate the creative brief for you.

What if I already have a script?

Perfect. Share your script with our Creative Writing Agent and they'll format it to work with our system. Let them know if you want to preserve the original wording, though they'll always offer thoughtful insights to enhance your vision.

What file formats can I upload?

You can paste text directly, or upload a PDF, Word (.docx), plain-text (.txt) or subtitle (.srt, .vtt) file up to 10 MB. We accept raw transcripts from any recording tool, messy conversation, tangents and all.

How long does it take?

It depends on the length of your material and how many shots it becomes: a short script moves quickly, a long one takes longer. You'll see the progress as each step completes.
