Previs Pro has updated its Animatics feature with AI-powered video generation features. 

A new feture called Video Style Grade transforms fully animated sequences into stylised clips using generative AI.

It’s similar to Previs Pro’s existing Style Grade for static images, enabling users to render animatics in distinct visual styles – from painterly and hand-drawn looks to photorealistic previews. The aim is to help creators better communicate tone and art direction in early pre-production.

Video Style Grade was introduced in Previs Pro 3.

It transforms traditional storyboards into moving sequences combining timing, pacing, and camera movement with character and prop animation. Previs Pro says it provides cinematographic control impossible to achieve with prompted AI.

The feature gives filmmakers the ability to preview the blocking, rhythm and flow of a scene before cameras roll, bridging the gap between storyboard and full previs.

“With Video Style Grade, users can now go beyond motion,” said Ian Lynch-Smith, founder of Previs Pro. “You can visualise your entire sequence in the aesthetic of your film – from gritty realism to ink – all while keeping your camera work, timing, and direction intact. This is a unique advantage Previs Pro brings to animated AI generated video – it’s about extending creative control, not replacing it.”
