Best Practices

Nano Storyboard Best Practices

Reference Image Tips

Use a clear, well-lit image of your subject, preferably front-facing or at a 3/4 angle. Simple backgrounds allow for more creative scene variations and better results.

9-Grid Story Structure

Organize your story logically: Panels 1-3 (Top Row) for introduction and setup, Panels 4-6 (Middle Row) for development and climax, and Panels 7-9 (Bottom Row) for resolution and conclusion.

Story Continuity Guidelines

Ensure each scene logically connects to the next, maintaining consistent time, location, and mood. Actions should lead naturally from one scene to another, using visual cues to reinforce flow and avoiding jarring jumps.

Camera Transition Best Practices

Avoid jump cuts by not cutting between similar angles. Adhere to the 180-degree rule and vary shots between wide, medium, and close-up. Match action by cutting during movement and ensure every cut is motivated by the story. Vary pacing—longer for emotion, shorter for action.

Aspect Ratio Strategy

Use 9:16 for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts. 16:9 is best for cinematic presentations on YouTube. Note: 1:1 aspect ratio is not supported for story videos.

Scene Generation Tips

The AI generates scenes one by one based on each grid panel, matching visual content while maintaining character consistency. Camera angles should progress naturally through the narrative.
