Think beyond
a single take.

Pick a director, a genre and a theme. Cast from your vault. Series takes the idea from a one-line premise to a treatment, a cast, the sets and a storyboard — the same faces in every episode.

A premise in. A season out.

Three pickers and a sentence. Series writes the treatment, proposes the cast from your vault, builds the sets and boards the first episode — each step editable before the next one runs.

“The Lease” — six episodes. A man moves into an apartment that seems to remember someone else. Each episode is one neighbour, one favour, one thing he should not have agreed to. Long lenses, doors half open, nobody explains.

A director for every story

Directors are ways of seeing, not names. Pick one and the treatment, the sets and the board all inherit its habits.

From premise to board, in order.

Each stage is editable before the next one runs. Nothing is rendered until you say so.

From one line to a six-episode outline in the director's voice — logline, arc, an episode list. Edit any sentence; the rest re-plans around it.

The board

Eight panels.
One episode.

The storyboard is where Series hands off to Cinema. Every panel is a shot with its set, its cast and its camera already chosen — click one and it opens in Cinema, filled in.

Each of the eight panels carries a set, the cast in it, and a camera — wide, two-shot, close-up, insert. That is exactly what Cinema needs.

The same faces,
every episode.

Cast is pinned to the series. Recast a role and every panel that role appears in re-boards; the sets stay exactly where they were.

@you · lead@Mara · neighbour@Oliver · landlord@The apartment 4B@Hallway@Corner Bar
  1. 1

    Pin a face to a role

    Pick from the vault — your twin or a saved character. The role keeps that face for every episode.

  2. 2

    Recast without re-boarding by hand

    Change who plays the landlord and every panel with the landlord re-boards. The sets, the shots and the cut stay.

  3. 3

    Render when the board is right

    Treatment, cast, sets and board are ⚡ 20 together. The episode is ⚡ 420 and only runs when you press it.

A season,
not a gamble.

Three ways Series keeps a long project from drifting.

Faces never drift

Cast is pinned to the series, not the shot. Episode six looks like episode one because it is the same twin.

Sets persist

The apartment in E1 is the apartment in E4 — same room, same light, same door that sticks.

Nothing renders early

Treatment, cast, sets and board are cheap and editable. The ⚡ 420 episode only runs when you press it.

Episode one is a sentence away.
