# Script

Turning a story into reviewed shots, reference assets and generation prompts. The Add node menu calls it Script · storyboard.

**Use it for:** Turning a story into reviewed shots, reference assets and
generation prompts. The Add node menu calls it **Script · storyboard**.

**What it can do:** Break down the script, let you edit/reorder shots, prepare
Character/Scene/Prop images, set global style, and synthesize image/video prompts.

**Inputs:** Connected text plus your local script, and optional image references.
The preparation flow is **confirm shots → prepare assets → synthesize prompts**.

**Outputs:** Reviewed workflow data and separate ordinary Image/Video workflow
groups. Its workflow-group link identifies the derived groups; dragging it
does not create arbitrary downstream generators. Download Script exports an
Excel XML `.xml` workbook containing script, assets and shots.

**Try it:** Enter a short harbor story, break it into two shots, review the
action/camera/dialogue, choose images for referenced assets, then synthesize
prompts. On the selected Script node, use **Generate shots** or **Generate videos**
to choose scope and create the corresponding workflow group.

**Remember:** Creating the workflow group does not itself generate paid media.
Edits can make asset/prompt preparation stale; refresh the affected stages.
Use Script for preparation and Storyboard for a table of shot images/videos.

### Watch the setup
