Previs & pitch · Lookbook builder

Pitch your film
— before you make it.

  • Drop in your script and get a board for every scene, built from real film frames.
  • A pitch trailer runs $5k–50k and weeks of work — the lookbook gets you there in an afternoon.
  • Go from script to a scene-by-scene visual pitch, ready to put in front of a producer.
  • Sell the vision long before the shoot, without a previs budget.

Moodboard builder

Build the look — scene by scene.

  • Find your references without leaving the board — search the library and drop frames straight in.
  • Arrange them by scene, sequence or look, and see the whole film in one view.
  • Share one link with your DP, your designer and your client — everyone sees the same film.
