Storyboard
A storyboard is a film planned shot by shot — each scene's framing, action and length in order. In AI video it is the way past the clip-length limit: several clips with one look, played as one cut.
Because engines render seconds at a time, a two-minute piece is a dozen scenes. The storyboard keeps continuity: a shared look, recurring characters, a deliberate rhythm of wide, medium and close shots.
On eroq
Cinema is a storyboard tool: a Story of scenes (a place, a time, a cast) holding shots with their dialogue, rendered shot by shot with takes, re-renders and reordering, up to 100 shots per film, cut on the Editor's timeline, exported as one MP4 and publishable with a cover. The API renders a whole storyboard with POST /v1/films/{id}/render.
Questions
How many scenes can a storyboard have on eroq?
Up to 100 shots per film, grouped into scenes, with up to 4 takes per render and the last 8 kept to choose from.
Do all the scenes share the same look?
Yes — the director's rack is set once for the film and folded into every shot, which is what keeps a dozen separate renders reading as one piece. A scene or a single shot can still change it with Override film settings (a night scene in a day film). Camera move and length stay per shot, the cast per scene.
Can I render a whole storyboard in one call?
Over the API, yes — POST /v1/films/{id}/render queues every scene as its own async job, charged per scene. In the studio, Render in Cinema's Story renders a shot, a scene or the whole film (missing shots, changed ones or all), billed shot by shot, so an empty wallet stops cleanly between two shots.
