Describe your idea
Say what the Reel is about, pick a style, a platform and a length.
Free tool
Go from a one-line idea to a shot-by-shot plan for Instagram Reels, TikTok or YouTube Shorts. No sign-up needed.
Your shot list will appear here: a hook, the middle, and a closing call to action, each with a camera angle and timing.
Say what the Reel is about, pick a style, a platform and a length.
Get a hook-to-call-to-action storyboard with framing and timing for every shot. Edit anything.
Copy it as text, or save it to StillToReel to sketch, preview as an animatic and share for feedback.
Yes. Generating, editing and copying a storyboard is free and needs no account. You only sign up if you want to save it as a reel in StillToReel.
It depends on the length. As a guide, a 15 second Reel works well with about 4 shots, 30 seconds with about 6, and 60 seconds with 8 or so. The generator picks the beats that matter most for the runtime you choose.
Start on the most interesting moment within the first second or two, and put the payoff in a few words on screen. Viewers decide almost immediately whether to keep watching, so the hook should never be a slow introduction.
Absolutely. Rename shots, rewrite descriptions, change durations, remove shots or add your own. Treat the result as a first draft that already has the structure in place.
Your storyboard becomes a reel in your workspace, with every shot, note and duration in place. From there you can add sketches or reference images, play it as an animatic and share a review link.
No. The generator builds the shot list from proven short-form structures, so the same idea always gives the same storyboard and nothing is sent anywhere until you choose to save it.
