Why Most Productions Skip Storyboards
Nobody on Your Team Can Draw
And a storyboard artist is €500 a day. Most indie and mid-size productions skip storyboards entirely because the cost doesn't fit the budget.
Too Slow to Keep Up
By the time a traditional storyboard is done, the script has changed. Hand-drawing or digital storyboarding takes days for a feature-length script — and the result is already out of date.
Disconnected from Production
A PDF storyboard doesn't update when the shot list changes. It doesn't link to your timeline. It's a static artifact that goes stale immediately.
From Script to Storyboard
Six steps from script to storyboard. Mergi helps with each stage, passing structured output through the pipeline.
Script Input
YouUpload your screenplay or paste a treatment. The system accepts standard screenplay formats, plain text, or structured outlines.
Script Analysis
MergiMergi reads your script and maps every scene, beat, and character detail — narrative structure, locations, props, wardrobe, and everything downstream needs.
Shot Planning
MergiMergi plans the shots — composition, camera movement, transitions. Each beat becomes a visual plan informed by directing techniques and visual grammar.
Technical Specs
MergiMergi adds technical specs — lens, lighting, camera movement, color temperature, and depth of field. Every decision includes technical reasoning.
Generation
MergiMergi generates the frames. Creative and technical specs become optimized GenAI prompts. The right model is selected for each shot type — multiple options per shot.
Consistency Review
MergiMergi checks every frame before it reaches your board. A 5-point consistency check flags and regenerates any shots with character, wardrobe, lighting, coverage, or quality issues.
Built for Production-Ready Storyboards
Shot List Generation
Automatically generates a detailed shot list from your script with shot type, description, technical notes, and reasoning for every entry.
Film Craft Knowledge Built In
Each shot is informed by directing techniques, visual grammar, and genre conventions — matching your scene's emotional intent with established filmmaking craft.
Multi-Model Generation
Mergi selects from 35+ active AI models per shot based on the visual requirements. Character-heavy scenes use different models than landscapes.
5-Point Continuity Check
Storyboard frames can pass through Mergi's AI-assisted review so issues are flagged for iteration before they become part of the board.
The 5-Point Continuity Check
The biggest challenge with AI-generated storyboards is consistency. Mergi runs an AI-assisted review across every frame before it reaches your board.
Character Consistency
Mergi verifies that character appearance — face, build, age, distinguishing features — remains consistent across every shot they appear in.
Wardrobe & Props
Mergi checks that clothing, accessories, and props match the script notes and remain continuous within each scene, including across shot-reverse-shot sequences.
Lighting Conditions
Mergi ensures lighting direction, color temperature, and intensity match the established setup for each scene. Catches impossible lighting shifts between cuts.
Scene Coverage
Mergi validates that the shot list provides complete coverage — establishing shots, key moments, reactions, and transitions are all represented.
Technical Quality
Mergi evaluates generation quality — composition adherence, prompt fidelity, artifact detection, and resolution consistency across all frames.
Issues are flagged and regenerated with AI assistance — less manual QA effort.
