The editable shot plan

Every beat has a job.

This 18-second plan has timed directions and narration. It is a storyboard, not a rendered result.

  1. 01
    0–4.5s

    The first spark

    A translucent jellyfish rises through deep-blue water; keep the subject above the lower caption line.

    Sample narration“An idea begins beneath the surface.”

  2. 02
    4.5–9s

    The journey

    Hard cut to a red passenger train winding through a snowy alpine forest at blue hour.

    Sample narration“Then takes the long way around.”

  3. 03
    9–13.5s

    The opening

    Cut to a coral-pink peony opening underwater with ivory ribbons drifting around it.

    Sample narration“Somewhere, it starts to open.”

  4. 04
    13.5–18s

    The invitation

    Return to the opening jellyfish in deep-blue water to make a visual loop; hold the question clearly.

    Sample narration“Where could yours go?”

Good to know

Before you start.

Can I change the example?

Yes. The hook, subject, narration and scene directions are starting points. Change any of them in the draft before you generate.

Is the storyboard a finished video?

No. It shows the format and sample copy. Your video depends on the model you choose and the edits you make.

Does this guarantee views?

No format can. Use the structure to make a clear, original short, post it, and learn from how your audience responds.
