1How this tool boards a script

TrendShort calls its storyboard the control layer: one page holds shot order, duration, characters, action, prompts and the status of each frame. First and last frames are settled for a shot before its video is made, shot images can be replaced with manual uploads, and each shot carries a visual-direction line.

What the storyboard comes back as: Panels plus lists

The storyboard page connects shot order, duration, characters, frame status, action, landing result, and generation prompts in one place.
