Problem
Indie filmmakers often spend hours manually breaking down scripts into detailed shot lists, creating storyboards, and coordinating with crew, which delays pre‑production and consumes limited budgets.
Solution
ShotKraft offers an AI‑driven platform that converts a screenplay PDF into a formatted shot list that is 70–90% ready for shooting within minutes. Users retain full creative control, editing each shot, adding custom fields, and generating AI‑created storyboard images for every scene. The web‑based tool enables real‑time collaboration, allowing crew members to view, comment on, and export the shot list as PDF or CSV. A free Basic tier provides up to 10 auto‑generated scenes and limited script uploads, while paid plans unlock unlimited generation, advanced export options, and priority support.
