AI 영화 사전 제작 도우미

MicrocosmWorks builds AI assistants that parse screenplay PDFs or Final Draft files to automatically extract every scene's cast members, locations, props, special effects, time of day, and estimated duration, then generate a production stripboard organized by location clustering and cast availability to minimize shooting days. The system identifies scheduling conflicts, weather-dependent scenes, and child actor hour restrictions, proposing optimized shooting orders that reduce company moves and overtime. What typically takes a line producer 2-3 weeks of manual breakdown is completed in hours with AI-generated first drafts.

MicrocosmWorks deploys AI image generation models fine-tuned on cinematic composition to produce storyboard frames from scene descriptions, including character blocking, camera angles, and lighting mood that match the screenplay's narrative tone. Directors can iterate on frames using natural language direction like 'make this a low-angle shot' or 'add rain to the exterior,' rapidly exploring visual approaches before committing to physical production resources. The AI-generated storyboards serve as effective communication tools for pre-production meetings at a fraction of the cost of traditional storyboard artists.

MicrocosmWorks trains budget estimation models on historical production cost databases, union rate cards (SAG-AFTRA, IATSE, DGA), and location-specific crew rates to generate detailed budget estimates broken down by department, accounting for factors like the number of speaking roles, VFX shot complexity, night shooting premiums, and distant location logistics. The system produces budget comparisons across different production strategies — for example, comparing practical effects versus CGI, or local versus distant location shooting — so producers can make informed trade-offs. Budget estimates are generated in industry-standard formats compatible with Movie Magic Budgeting and Hot Budget.

MicrocosmWorks implements risk analysis modules that flag scenes requiring stunts, pyrotechnics, animals, minors, nudity riders, licensed music, brand appearances needing clearance, and VFX shots that exceed budget norms, generating a risk register with mitigation recommendations for each item. The system also identifies dialogue that references real people, brands, or events that may require legal review, and flags scenes set in jurisdictions with restrictive filming permit requirements. This early risk identification prevents costly surprises during production at development rates of $15-$35/hr for the pre-production assistant setup.

MicrocosmWorks builds casting assistant features that extract detailed character profiles from the screenplay — including age range, physical descriptions, accent requirements, and character arc complexity — then match these against talent databases and agency rosters. The AI considers factors like schedule availability, rate compatibility with the production budget, chemistry with already-cast roles, and the actor's genre track record. The system generates shortlists with side-by-side comparisons and can even predict audience reception by analyzing social media following and recent project reception for each candidate.
