Inclusion rule. The six checkpoints every intake record is read on. Order. The order the checkpoints appear on every record.

1Where the two intakes part

Both take a pasted script, both accept a video to break down or recreate, and both say the text stage costs nothing: DramaSo's storyboard is free, TrendShort's Studio charges nothing on entry. DramaSo's beat sheet is drawn from a viral clip; TrendShort breaks scenes into shots, beats and visual prompts.

Automatic extraction
