How to Draw Storyboard Characters (With AI in Studiovity) 🎬

Creating characters for a storyboard can feel intimidating, especially if you’re not an artist. The good news: you don’t need to be a skilled illustrator to bring your storyboards to life anymore. With AI-powered tools like Studiovity, character design for storyboards has become faster and more accessible.

Traditional Way vs AI Way

Traditionally:

  • Sketch rough figures (stick figures are fine).
  • Add expressions, body posture, and props.
  • Redraw every frame for new scenes or actions.

With AI in Studiovity:

  • Write your script.
  • Let AI auto-generate characters and scenes in storyboard panels.
  • Customize details like actions, expressions, or camera angles.
  • Instantly sync characters with shot lists and breakdowns.

Why Use AI for Storyboard Characters?

  • Saves time: No need to draw each scene manually.
  • Consistent look: Characters stay uniform across panels.
  • Accessible to non-artists: You can focus on storytelling, not sketching.
  • Integrated workflow: Studiovity links characters to props, dialogue, and locations.

Final Thoughts

You don’t have to be an illustrator to visualize your story. With AI storyboarding in Studiovity, you can generate characters, scenes, and entire boards directly from your script — speeding up pre-production while keeping your creative control intact.
