Use case guide

See your novel as a movie before writing the screenplay.

Adapting a novel into film starts with understanding how the story works visually.

Every chapter is already a scene, waiting to be found.

SceneFlow helps authors transform chapters into cinematic scenes — experimenting with structure, pacing, and visual storytelling to build an interactive movie blueprint before screenplay development ever starts.

Find the scenes in your chapters

A novel already knows where its scenes are.

SceneFlow helps identify the visual scenes, action beats, dialogue moments, character introductions, and natural act breaks hiding in your prose — making screenplay development much easier once you start writing it.

Before you write the screenplay

Visualize it. Then write it.

Visualize the movie. Find pacing issues. Experiment with structure. Then begin writing the screenplay with the confidence that comes from having already watched it work.

How SceneFlow works

From chapters to a prompt for the whole adaptation.

You create editable scene mockups from a chapter, arrange them on a cinematic timeline, and precisely control framing, camera movement, pacing, transitions, characters and their voices, and every other creative decision.

Instead of repeatedly rendering expensive AI video, you iterate on a lightweight mockup until the adaptation is finalized — then export a structured prompt for the entire movie, ready to generate with AI.

  1. 1 Upload a script
  2. 2 AI converts it into editable scenes in SceneFlow
  3. 3 Refine
  4. 4 Export a prompt to generate the full movie with AI

AI-generated feature-length movies are coming soon — SceneFlow is built to be a key part of that future.
