Sora 2 Storyboard is designed for creators who need connected scenes, consistent characters, and smooth narrative pacing in one generation workflow.
This page targets practical search intent around Sora 2 Storyboard prompts, scene planning, and production use cases, so teams can move from concept to publishable video faster.
Sora 2 Storyboard works best when you need continuity between shots instead of isolated clips. Typical workflows include ad concepts, social storytelling, product narratives, and pre-visualization for commercial shoots.
High-performing prompts separate scene intent, camera behavior, and transition logic. Write each scene as a clear instruction set with a consistent visual anchor and explicit motion language.
For growth and content teams, Storyboard mode improves speed-to-publish by producing campaign-ready narrative clips without rebuilding each shot manually.
This is especially useful for iterative ad testing where format variants need shared brand style, pacing, and visual continuity.
Create coherent storylines by defining multiple scenes in order with smooth transitions. Sora 2 Storyboard maintains consistent visual style and elements across all scenes for professional-quality output.
Generate videos up to 25 seconds with configurable scene durations. Choose from 10s, 15s, or 25s total length options, with Pro users able to create extended 25-second videos.
Upload reference images to guide the generation process and ensure visual consistency throughout multi-scene videos. Perfect for maintaining character identity and visual style across sequences.
You define a sequence of scenes, each with its own text prompt and optional reference image. The model processes the entire sequence as a connected narrative rather than isolated clips. It reads ahead to understand where the story is going, so lighting, color grading, and composition evolve naturally from one scene to the next instead of resetting.
Storyboard maintains an internal representation of every visual element introduced in earlier scenes. When a character, object, or environment reappears in a later scene, the model references this representation to preserve clothing, facial features, props, and spatial layout. The result is continuity that would normally require manual compositing in traditional video editing.
Yes. Upload a reference image at the start and the model locks onto that identity. Hair color, outfit details, body proportions, and even subtle features like jewelry or tattoos carry through every subsequent scene. This persistence holds even when the camera angle, lighting, or background changes dramatically between shots.
Each scene boundary supports configurable transitions. You can request hard cuts for fast-paced edits, smooth dissolves for dreamlike sequences, or match-on-action cuts where movement in one scene carries into the next. The model interprets these instructions and generates intermediate frames that bridge the two scenes seamlessly.
Individual clips have no shared context — colors drift, characters change appearance, and lighting mismatches require heavy correction. Storyboard treats the entire sequence as one coherent project. It also saves significant time: planning five connected scenes in Storyboard takes one generation cycle, whereas five separate clips require five cycles plus manual editing to unify them.
A single Storyboard generation supports multiple connected scenes within the total duration limit (up to 25 seconds for Pro users). You can split that into as many scenes as needed — two long scenes or five short ones. The model allocates time per scene based on your prompts and balances pacing so no individual scene feels rushed or overstretched.
Both. A global reference image sets the overall visual identity — character appearance, art style, color palette. Per-scene reference images override specific elements for that scene only, such as a new background location or a costume change. This layered approach gives precise control without requiring you to re-describe every detail in every prompt.
