## Who uses stills for storyboards?

### A practical starting point

Storyboard artists can use the still to assess a proposed shot before allocating time and credits to motion.

## Questions about shot planning

### How should I describe the frame?

A shot brief can use 20,000 characters. State camera height, focal subject and lighting; a clear silhouette gives you a better starting point to inspect.

### Can I remove the scene behind my subject?

Request a transparent background. With Sunburst at 2K or 4K, ask for subject isolation without scenery or shadows; an edit prompt must also request extraction.

### Which settings should I check?

Use 1K for 27:16 or its portrait counterpart 16:27, and also for 9:8 or 8:9. Other ratios allow higher resolution. Review the credit quote and your plan access before generating.

### How many credits does GPT Image 2.5 use?

GPT Image 2.5 draws between 10 and 30 credits per run, depending on the model and length chosen in the form.

### What limits should I check before using GPT Image 2.5?

Generated output from GPT Image 2.5 can contain visual, audio, or factual errors. Review each result before publishing, and upload only material you are authorized to use. Where the form accepts a reference image, supported files are JPEG, PNG, WebP up to 30 MB each.

### What happens to the files I upload to GPT Image 2.5?

An upload is stored against your own account, not pooled with other people's. Deleting the account removes it: the control is in Settings under Security, the request is confirmed by email, and the erasure removes the stored objects it owns. How long anything else is kept, and which processors handle it, is stated in the privacy policy.

### Can I use what GPT Image 2.5 makes commercially?

Every paid plan includes a commercial licence for what GPT Image 2.5 makes; the free tier is for personal use.
