Cinematic Script Writer

What this skill does

Create professional cinematic scripts for AI video generation with character consistency and cinematography knowledge. Use when the user wants to write a cinematic script, create story contexts with characters, generate image prompts for AI video tools (Midjourney, Sora, Veo), or needs cinematography guidance (camera angles, lighting, color grading). Also use for character consistency sheets, voice profiles, anachronism detection, and saving scripts to Google Drive.

Cinematic Script Writer is part of the Developer Tools category — developer tools that help your agent write, review, debug, and ship code. You can install it on its own or alongside other developer tools skills from the OpenClaw catalog.

How to install Cinematic Script Writer

The easiest path is via the OpenClaw Easy desktop app — one click, no terminal required:

1. Download OpenClaw Easy for macOS or Windows (free, one-click installer, ~30 seconds).
2. Open the in-app Skills panel.
3. Search for cinematic-script-writer and click Install.
4. The skill activates automatically when an incoming message matches its description.

Install from the command line

If you already run the OpenClaw CLI, add Cinematic Script Writer with a single command:

openclaw skills add cinematic-script-writer

This pulls cinematic-script-writer from ClawHub and installs it into ~/.openclaw/skills/cinematic-script-writer/. Restart the OpenClaw gateway afterwards so the new skill is discovered.

How to use Cinematic Script Writer

Once installed, Cinematic Script Writer activates on its own: when an incoming message on WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Feishu or Line matches the skill's description, your OpenClaw agent loads it and runs the workflow. You can also trigger it explicitly by describing the task in chat. No extra configuration is required after install.

Turning video into a finished short

Cinematic Script Writer works with video. Getting from there to something postable is a separate job: ViralMint — an open-source video pipeline — reframes to vertical, cleans the audio, cuts dead air, burns animated captions, and exports a version sized for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts.

It runs as an MCP server, so an OpenClaw agent can drive it from the same chat you already use: ask for a short, and the render comes back finished. See how to connect a video pipeline to your agent.

Manual install (advanced)

If you prefer manual installation:

1. Click the Download .zip button above to grab cinematic-script-writer-1.4.6.zip directly from our S3 mirror.
2. Unzip into ~/.openclaw/skills/cinematic-script-writer/ (create the directory if it does not exist).
3. Restart OpenClaw Easy (or the OpenClaw CLI gateway) so the new skill is discovered.
