Choose your shot-list type

Each card preloads the generator with pacing, aspect ratio, and production rules for that use case.

Install as an Agent Skill

Same workflow package for ChatGPT, Codex, Claude, Cursor, Kiro, and OpenCode. Download SKILL.md

  1. Download the SKILL.md package from this page (or copy the skill file).
  2. In ChatGPT, open your custom GPT or Skills / Projects area that accepts standalone skills.
  3. Upload or paste the ai-shot-list-generator skill so the name and description can activate it.
  4. Ask for a shot list from a script or idea; ChatGPT should pick up the skill when relevant.

How it works

  1. Paste a script excerpt, scene, or concept and pick a video type.
  2. Set duration, aspect ratio, style, shot count, and production method.
  3. Generate a structured shot list with continuity and AI prompts.
  4. Download CSV, Markdown, JSON, or SKILL.md—or send the plan to TheFluxTrain.

Use cases

  • Convert a product ad script into a 30-second shooting plan
  • Build a YouTube or Shorts shot list with hooks and CTAs
  • Plan UGC ads with problem, product, proof, and offer beats
  • Create AI-film shot lists with consistent character prompts
  • Install the workflow as a skill in ChatGPT, Claude, Codex, or Cursor

What you get in every shot

Each row is built for production—not a vague beat summary. Continuity and AI video prompts sit beside classic camera fields so the same plan works for live crews and generative pipelines.

  • Shot size, angle, and camera movement
  • Subject, action, and composition notes
  • Dialogue / VO, sound, and transitions
  • Continuity locks and model-ready AI prompts

The generator sends only the concept and options you submit to our API. Downloads and SKILL.md copy stay on your device. No account is required to generate.
