📝 Script to Video: Full Workflow

Script to Video is a 3-step guided workflow that turns any written script into a fully produced video with consistent characters, voiceover, and visuals across all scenes.

Go to Workflows → Script to Video to begin.

💡 Tip: Each sentence maps to one scene. Break your script into clear sentences for the best results.

📝  Script to Video: Adding Your Script

In Step 1, you have several options for adding your script:

• You can paste or type directly into the text box.
• Upload a screenplay file using the "Add your screenplay" tab.
• Use the AI Script Writer to generate a script from an idea, or
• Click any Suggested Script card below the input area as a starting point.

Set the language from the dropdown at the bottom left, then click Next. If your scenes don't match your script as expected, make sure each distinct idea has its own paragraph. The AI Script Writer output can be refined by adding context about tone, genre, and audience.

🎨  Script to Video: Setting the Style

In Step 2, you control how your video looks.

• Select an aspect ratio (9:16, 16:9, or 1:1 with platform icons shown for each).
• Choose a video style: AI Video (recommended for the most creative output), AI Storyboard, or Upload your own media to every scene.
• Select a visual style from the grid. Toggle Custom Styles to define your own visual direction beyond the presets.

👥  Script to Video: Finalizing Cast

In Step 3, define the narrator voice and create characters that appear consistently throughout the video.

• Select a Country Accent and Narrator Voice from the dropdowns.
• For each auto-detected character, click "Click to Edit" and Save to create AI Characters - you can also change the filled in details: name, age, gender, ethnicity, a detailed visual appearance description (hair, face, build), clothing, and actor voice settings.
• You can create new characters or objects from scratch, pick from the Characters Library, or
• Upload a reference image of your character and use it throughout the video.

The more detail you provide in Visual Appearance, the more consistent the character will look across scenes.

💳  Script to Video: Generate Options & Credit Costs

Click on the 'Finalise Video' button to choose from three output types.

1. You can generate 'Storyboard' - still images/visuals for the animated video first. (Then, scene-by-scene generate motions and lip-syncs)
2. You can choose 'Preview Video' - generate the first 25 seconds with full motion & lip-sync. (To check if this aligns with your vision)
3. Generate the Full Video with everything end-to-end. (Visuals, Motions, Lip-syncs for all the scenes)

📹  Script to Video: Storyboard Output

After generating, Atlabs crafts your characters first, then builds scenes around them. Progress is shown as a percentage with status messages like "Crafting your characters..." Each script sentence becomes a scene with your defined character appearing consistently.

The storyboard has the same layout as Idea to Video - Edit Video, Export, Translate, Music, Captions, and Characters in the top bar. Motion generates automatically in the background incase, you opted for 'Generate Video' option.

If a scene doesn't match a script paragraph, edit the image prompt in the Visual tab.
