Comic script format · original worked example
An annotated four-panel comic script example
Number pages and panels, describe what can be drawn, and separate dialogue, captions and sound effects. This fictional sports scene illustrates formatting; it is not a completed AI-generated comic or psychological treatment advice.
Page 1 · Panel 1
WIDE SHOT — The basketball court before a free throw. The clock shows the final minute. CAPTION: The game is close.
Why: Establish a drawable setting, visible stakes and a distinct caption.
Narrative function: Setup
Page 1 · Panel 2
MEDIUM SHOT — Fictional athlete Ari holds the ball, looking toward the rim. ARI: One shot at a time.
Why: Use a named speaker and short dialogue; make the player's action clear.
Narrative function: Action
Page 1 · Panel 3
CLOSE UP — Ari releases tension in their shoulders, fixing their gaze on the basket. SFX: EXHALE
Why: Describe a visible change rather than an invisible thought.
Narrative function: Reaction
Page 1 · Panel 4
WIDE SHOT — The ball leaves Ari's hands while the coach watches from the sideline. COACH: Stay with your routine.
Why: End on a visible moment. This is narrative illustration, not clinical guidance.
Narrative function: Reveal

Dialogue-space reminders
Dialogue-like source text receives a production note to preserve the line and leave balloon space.

Frequently asked questions
Does the tool rewrite my dialogue?
The local split preserves source text. The optional AI instruction also asks the model to keep spoken lines verbatim, but review the result before production.
How long should the pasted script be?
Use one short scene, comic page, or vertical episode chunk. Breaking long chapters into smaller decisions produces more useful beats.
Does local splitting require an account?
No. Local sentence and paragraph splitting runs in the browser. The optional AI pass may follow the free endpoint's normal limits.
Can I use Japanese, Korean, or Chinese scripts?
Yes. Local splitting recognizes common CJK sentence punctuation, and the AI instruction asks the model to keep the input language.
What is the standard comic script format?
Number pages and panels, describe one visible action per panel, attribute dialogue to named characters, and mark captions and sound effects separately. See the original annotated example below the interactive tool.
Where can I download a comic script template?
