Inputs

Characters, settings and props

Dad's personality

Warm, reliable, slightly absent-minded. The kind of parent who is always there but not always present.

Lila´s dad

Lila's personality

Curious, fearless, and quietly stubborn. She investigates before she runs. She keeps secrets without being asked.

Lila

Ball

Setting - Garden

A quiet backyard at the end of the afternoon. Grass, a large old tree, a stone wall covered in ivy. Ordinary in every way — except for one corner behind the tree that nobody had ever thought to look at.

Character and setting sheet

From references to production-ready visuals

From the inputs, the workflow generates a sheet for each character and an environment breakdown, with multiple angles, expressions, props, and a color palette. The story is fully defined visually before a single shot is drawn.

Storyboard

Shot by shot

From the story text and character sheets, the workflow generates a 12-panel storyboard with shot type, camera movement, timing, and dialogue for every cut.

Storyboard: 12 shots with shot type, camera movement, duration and dialogue

Result

12-second short

The storyboard becomes an animated video, shot by shot, with consistent characters, environment, and light from the first frame to the last.
