How recipes work

A recipe turns a reusable workflow into a simple set of inputs and outputs. Start with a community recipe and make it your own in Fuser.

1. Choose a recipe

Find a workflow for the result you want. Review what it does and how to use it before opening it in Fuser.

2. Make it your own

Check the recipe’s available inputs. Add your own text or media where supported, or start with the saved defaults.

3. Run and refine

Run the recipe in Fuser and review the result on your canvas. Adjust any available inputs when you want to try another direction.

Ways to use the storyboard maker

Use a visual version of a story brief to plan, explain, and review short sequences before developing them further.

Plan a short film sequence

01

Turn a rough sequence of character actions into a storyboard image that helps organize the beats of a short film.

Prepare a pitch concept

02

Use a storyboard image to communicate the basic progression of a scene when presenting an early film or animation idea.

Develop comic scenes

03

Translate a brief narrative into a visual sequence that can support early planning for a comics or illustrated story project.

Review scene progression

04

Inspect how a story moves from one action to the next, such as a character attempting something, encountering a setback, and reacting.

Shape animation ideas

05

Use a storyboard image as an early planning reference for animated scenes built around clear physical actions.

Explain a story to collaborators

06

Share a visual interpretation of a written brief so collaborators can discuss the intended sequence before production work begins.

Frequently asked questions

It turns a rough story brief into a storyboard image. The saved example depicts a frog wizard waking on a lily pad, catching a fly, falling into the water while trying to catch another, and emerging wet and annoyed as the fly laughs.

It is suited to filmmakers, animators, comic creators, illustrators, and anyone planning a short visual sequence. It is most useful when the story can be described as a series of actions or scene beats.

Describe the main character or subject, the important actions, and how the sequence ends. The saved brief uses a simple action-driven scenario with a frog wizard, a lily pad, flies, a fall, and a final reaction.

Yes. Story Brief is the exposed text input, so you can replace the saved frog-wizard scenario with your own sequence in Fuser. The resulting storyboard will be based on the new brief rather than the saved example.

The recipe description calls for a rough story outline and visual reference. The saved example shown here includes a Story Brief input and a storyboard image output; use the input options available in Fuser when preparing a new version.

It demonstrates a storyboard image based on a compact narrative with several connected actions and a clear ending reaction. It is an example of the saved default setup, not a live generation or a guarantee that every new brief will be represented identically.

Short, concrete sequences with identifiable actions are a practical fit, such as a character attempting a task, encountering a mishap, and responding to it. More abstract or highly detailed production requirements may need additional planning beyond this storyboard image.
