## What is Spark Story?

Spark Story is a collaborative pre-production tool for virtual production. It lets teams write scripts, build 3D scenes, plan shots, and export everything to set — all from a web browser.

## Where Spark Story fits in the ecosystem

Spark Story is the starting point of the Lightcraft virtual production pipeline:

1. **Spark Story** — Write, design scenes, and plan shots in pre-production.
2. **Jetset** — Capture camera tracking and composites on set using an iPhone or iPad.
3. **Autoshot** — Bring tracked data into Blender, Unreal, After Effects, or Nuke for post-production.

Scenes built in Spark Story export directly to Jetset, carrying over assets, camera positions, and locators.

## High-level workflow

A typical Spark Story workflow follows these steps:

1. **Write** — Create or import a Fountain or Final Draft formatted screenplay.
2. **Build scenes** — Arrange 3D assets, set up lighting, and position cameras for each scene heading.
3. **Plan shots** — Record camera moves, organize shot lists, and share previews with your team.
4. **Export to set** — Generate USDZ files and QR codes so Jetset can load your scene on an iPhone or iPad.

## Who this documentation is for

This documentation is for anyone using Spark Story, including directors, cinematographers, producers, and virtual production supervisors. No prior 3D experience is required — the guides start from account creation and build up to advanced scene editing.
