Overview

This skill creates professional cinematic scripts tailored for AI video generation, combining story building, character consistency, and cinematography expertise. It exports structured assets and can save complete projects to Google Drive for organized delivery. Use it to produce ready-to-render scripts, image prompts, and production guides with era-accurate details and voice consistency.

How this skill works

You provide a story context, characters, and desired style or genre; the skill generates story ideas and a full cinematic script with shot-by-shot directions, camera movements, lighting, and color grading. It builds character reference sheets and voice profiles, enforces environment consistency, and flags anachronisms. The tool also produces image prompts formatted for AI video tools and can save the entire project into a Google Drive folder structure.
