Who it is for
Built for every type of creator
Why start with a storyboard template
- Reduce planning time — A storyboard template gives you pre-defined structure so you spend less time setting up frames and more time developing your creative vision.
- Learn from proven formats — Templates follow established storytelling structures — three-act narrative, commercial beats, social hooks — so your storyboard starts with a solid foundation.
- Consistent output across projects — Using a storyboard template ensures consistent frame counts, shot types, and pacing across projects, which is especially useful for agencies managing multiple clients.
- Onboard new team members faster — New collaborators can start contributing immediately when the storyboard template provides clear structure and expectations for each scene.
Available storyboard template types
- Film and short film templates — Pre-structured storyboard templates for narrative projects with scene breakdowns, establishing shots, dialogue sequences, and climactic beats.
- Commercial and ad templates — Storyboard templates built for 15-second, 30-second, and 60-second ad formats with hook, problem, solution, and call-to-action frames.
- Social media video templates — Templates optimized for vertical and square formats. Designed for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts with attention-grabbing openings.
- Pitch deck and presentation templates — Visual storyboard templates for investor pitches, client presentations, and concept decks. Structured to communicate ideas clearly and persuasively.
Core workflow
What you can do with Storyboard templates
From early concept through client-ready handoff, every storyboard template step lives in one connected workspace.
04
Core capabilities
01Step 1
Templates for every format
Start with a storyboard template designed for short films, commercials, social videos, pitch decks, or training content. Each template has pre-defined frame structures.
02Step 2
AI-generated custom boards
No template fits? Describe your project and AI generates a custom storyboard layout with scene breakdowns, shot descriptions, and visual direction.
03Step 3
Fully editable frames
Every storyboard template is a starting point. Add, remove, reorder, and regenerate frames. Change prompts, adjust visuals, and make it yours.
04Step 4
From template to final cut
Templates connect to the full M Studio workflow. Generate images, create video, add audio, edit on the timeline, and export — all from your starting template.
All steps connect — changes in one stage cascade through your entire project without rebuilding from scratch.

How it works
From script to screen in six steps
M Studio builds a film shot by shot, and you direct every shot — this is the whole path, start to finish.
- 01
Start a film
Start from a one-line brief, or import a screenplay PDF and build straight from the pages you already wrote.
- 02
Add your script
Scenes, action and dialogue laid out shot by shot — editable line by line before anything renders.
- 03
Add your characters
Add each character once with a reference image so the same face carries across every shot in the film.
- 04
Build the storyboard
Your script breaks into shots on a canvas. Reorder, reframe and re-prompt any shot until the board reads right.
- 05
Make the video clips
Turn approved storyboard pictures into video clips one shot at a time, then layer voiceover, music and sound effects.
- 06
Export the cut
Take the finished cut out as an MP4, MOV or WebM, up to 4K on Professional and up, ready for the edit or the pitch.
There is no length cap in the editor. Because films are made shot by shot, how long a film can run comes down to how many video clips your plan includes — not a limit in the tool.
