About FrameThrower
FrameThrower is the world's largest library of film stills for inspiration, learning, and making movies faster. Find movie screenshots and cinematography references with AI-powered visual search. Explore lighting, composition, colour and shot size, then organise your references into lookbooks and export PDF boards for pitches and production.
Built for filmmakers and advertising creatives, FrameThrower indexes frames by lighting, lens character, shot size, colour grade, time of day and who is in the shot, so you can search the way you would describe a shot out loud. Save references to lookbooks and export PDF boards or ZIP files.
FrameThrower also offers a REST API, an MCP server for Claude and ChatGPT, an npm SDK and a ComfyUI node for bringing cinematographic references into creative workflows. Built by senior filmmakers and advertising creatives.

Can the REST API or npm SDK be used to search the film still library from a custom production tool?
Carmen Ruiz
Does FrameThrower’s AI search understand natural language prompts like warm handheld close up at night, and can it filter results by lens character?
Ravi Menon
Can free users export PDF lookbooks, or is that limited to a paid plan?
