Generate or change a scene synopsis

How to automatically generate or manually edit a scene synopsis directly within the Script tab

Written by Egor Dubrovsky

In the Script tab, you can automatically generate a synopsis for a specific scene or for all script scenes at once using the AI-driven Automatic AI Synopsis tool. You can also manually change it at any time.

Note: AI Scene Synopsis requires a Director's Cut plan and uses Dude Coins.

  • With the script. In the Script tab, select Export, select Include scene synopsis, and then select PDF. Each synopsis appears in the file next to its scene. See Export script to PDF.
