Its ​​AI Script Generator​​ eliminates writer's block. Input a brief description (e.g., “A historical figure explaining their legacy”), select a tone (formal, humorous), and let AI craft a compelling script. It will structure scenes, suggest dialogues, and even recommend visual styles (e.g., cinematic, anime)

For example, a script about a “lonely cat working odd jobs” might include scenes of the cat washing dishes or sweeping streets—complete with emotionally resonant narration. Edit the AI-generated script freely or let this tool auto-sync it with your uploaded photos.
