AI filmmaking for shorts, features and series

Make your film.
Scene by scene.

Develop your screenplay, cast your characters and shape each shot in one AI production workspace. Keep your references, takes and edit decisions together as your film evolves.

• Your script, cast and shots together
• Review and compare takes
• Continue in your editing software

Develop a script and 2K storyboard stills in a one-time guided evaluation with up to 150 introductory credits. No credit card required. Generation limits apply; the allowance does not renew. It also includes one free, watermarked 5-second video shot at 720p. More video and audio need a membership or a credit pack.

Start your script & storyboard See how it works

The work behind every shot, kept together.

Compare takes, prepare production documents, gather scene feedback and organize files for your editor as you build the film.

• A still-take similarity score for review. Score supported still takes against your character references on a 0–100 scale, where 70 passes and 85 is strong. Compare takes side by side in Dailies, and include an Identity Consistency Report with the production export.
• Keep the production documents with your film. Twelve sections built from your project: contacts, schedule, scene breakdown sheets, call sheets, a day-out-of-days, a budget estimate, props, costume, sound cues, blocking, lighting cues and director’s notes. Review and export the book as PDF with the production package.
• Continue the edit in your own software. Prepare timeline files for Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro and DaVinci Resolve with available source media, stems, captions and production documents. Check relinking after import; grades, framing, titles, transitions and audio fades may need to be rebuilt.
• Review the planned emotional pace. Watch the cut as an animatic, trim it, compare scene timing with the planned beat structure and request reviewable pacing notes.
• Gather feedback on your scenes. Share cloud-saved scene footage or stills and available image alternatives. Reviewers comment without an account. The preview follows scene order and excludes the manual timeline, soundtrack, titles and final grade.

Choose how each scene comes to life.

Write, cast, generate and edit in the same workspace. Choose from the engines available on your plan, with the generation charge shown before you start.

Seven stages, one project

1. Develop the script: Work from a brief, an outline, photos or your own draft. Refine scenes, dialogue and structure before spending on footage.
2. Define the visual direction: Cast the characters, build the sets and choose the camera, lens and film-stock look. Use material you have permission to upload.
3. Plan the production: Break the script into shots and organize the production book. Select an engine and generation settings for each shot.
4. Generate and select takes: Generate footage from the project references and scene direction. Inspect each take for motion, continuity and unwanted artifacts; keep the takes you want to edit.
5. Build the sound: Generate or import dialogue, music and effects, then place them against the picture. Check source rights and voice permissions.
6. Shape the edit: Arrange selected clips, adjust pacing and build the cut. Keep project material together as the sequence develops.
7. Validate the delivery: Prepare the media, timelines and production documents, then open the package in the editing or delivery environment you intend to use.

The backlot

• 430 ready-to-cast characters. 300 animated characters and 130 photoreal actors, each with a multi-view turnaround, expression sheet or physique chart, plus 61 talent profiles. Matching a library character does not start a new reference-generation job; scene images and footage still use credits.
• 449 locations. 169 photoreal location plates and 280 animated-world sets across 26 cities and biomes. Each animated set is scouted in four shots, and eateries, homes and bookstores have night versions.
• 1,665 asset presets. 333 props, 333 vehicles, 333 wardrobe pieces, 333 animals, 333 set dressing pieces, ready to place in a scene. Any hero prop can get a six-angle turnaround for Prop Identity Lock.

Make room for the story you want to tell.

Make an independent movie, short film, series episode or experimental work on your own terms. The optional story method helps you explore character, choice and connection during preproduction. You can create without it and begin directly with your screenplay.

1. Choose your intention. Decide what you want to explore and what you want the audience to leave thinking about.
2. Find a throughline. Name what changes from the beginning to the end of the scene.
3. Give someone agency. Explore what a character wants, what stands in the way and which choice matters.
4. Earn connection. Let action, consequence and relationships carry the emotional turn.
5. Protect trust. Treat real people with care. Check facts and permissions when your story draws on their lives.

Kama muta offers one way to review moments of connection in a script. Editorial scores guide revision; audience response still needs to be tested. Read the optional method or start your script and storyboard. For company production, explore Lumier Studios.

A workspace for the film you keep developing.

Lumier brings scene planning, character references, alternate takes and production documents together. It fits creators who want to direct each scene and continue refining the edit in their own software.
