Write what happens and get it back as a short 3D animated scene, with the stylized characters, soft lighting and saturated color of an animated feature. Good for story ideas, pitches, kids' content and social clips.
How to make a 3D cartoon clip
- Describe the scene: the character, the setting and one clear action.
- Attach a character image (optional) to keep your own design.
- Pick the shape and length: 16:9 for video, 9:16 for shorts and reels.
- Choose a resolution: 480p for drafts, 720p or 1080p for the final.
- Generate.
Tips
- One action per clip. "The fox slips on the ice and lands on its tail" works better than a whole story.
- Name the emotions. Expressive faces are the point of this style; say how the character feels.
- Draft at 480p, then render the version you like at a higher resolution.
- Longer stories: make several short clips with the same character description and cut them together.
