Watch it work.

Screenplay to a finished board: your character and location references carried into every shot, 3D blocking, an animatic and one-click export. Start with the overview, then work through the step-by-step guides.

Three manuals, updated for 1.12.2: the User Guide (every view, every export, the assistant, and AI Agents (MCP) — NUVAR is its own MCP server for Claude Code, Cursor or the Codex CLI), the Tool & Settings Manual (EN / DE), and the 8-step Workflow.

Full overview

Screenplay to finished board, start to finish, in one sitting.

Step by step

Four short guides that walk through each stage of the pipeline.

01 · Script → Storyboard

Script to storyboard

Paste a screenplay and let NUVAR break it into acts, layers and shots — with descriptions ready for image generation.

02 · Characters

Give every shot the right references

Build a character once and reuse it as a reference so the same person shows up across all your shots.

03 · 3D pre-viz

Block your shots in 3D

Set up the scene in 3D to nail framing and camera angles, then paint over the blocking to finish the frame.

04 · Animatic & export

Animatic, cutaways & export

Play your board as an animatic, auto-place cutaways, and export to Premiere, After Effects and PDF.

Feature highlights

Short looks at what sets NUVAR apart: references that ride along, real camera coverage, and one-click color grading.

Feature · Characters

References on every shot

Build a character or a location once, tag it, and NUVAR sends those reference images with every generation — batches included.

Feature · Coverage

Shoot like a film crew

Cover each moment from multiple angles — master, close-up, over-the-shoulder, reverse — instead of a slideshow.

Feature · Grading

Color grade in one click

Drop on a LUT, push the look, add grain or a VHS vibe — or just hit Auto. DaVinci-style grading, built in.
