Director's Console

Director's Console is a self-hosted workspace for filmmakers and AI artists who want to develop shot prompts, generate media through ComfyUI, and organize the results by project.

• Cinematic prompts: Build live-action or animation briefs around camera, lens, lighting, movement, and style choices, using presets or individual controls.
• AI prompt enhancement: Refine text or use an image as a description, reference, or starting point with a compatible LLM; attached images require a vision-capable model and go to the selected provider.
• Shot workflows: Generate images and video, edit, or upscale through ComfyUI workflows while keeping each shot's parameters, versions, notes, and output history together.
• Parallel rendering: Send work to multiple local or remote ComfyUI nodes and track each job's progress.
• Project gallery: Compare, rate, tag, and search media, reuse files as workflow references, or recover compatible workflow settings from PNG metadata.

The application is open source under the MIT License and runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux through a browser interface. Rule-based prompt authoring doesn't require an LLM provider or a render node. Rendering requires ComfyUI with the models and custom nodes needed by the chosen workflow, which determines the available generation and editing capabilities.

Optional AI enhancement supports compatible local servers and external providers such as Google AI (Gemini). Using an external provider sends prompt context and any attached images to that service. The application has no built-in authentication or authorization and is intended for a trusted, access-controlled private network.
