How do I make a drama series with AI?

Write or paste the first episode, choose a style and a language, and set the characters to speak. oVideo builds the storyboard, animates the scenes and gives you the episode. For the next part, start a new story with the same characters.

Will the characters look the same in every episode?

Yes. Each character is designed once and keeps that look in every scene. You can use the same characters, or your own photos of them, for the next episode so the cast never changes.

Can the characters speak their own lines?

Yes. Choose dialogue mode so characters say their lines, add a narrator, or use both, and give every character their own voice.

Can they speak in a dialect?

Write the lines the way you want them said. The voice speaks the text you give it in English, Turkish, Spanish, German, French, Arabic or Russian.

How long can an episode be?

15, 30, 45 or 60 seconds for TikTok and Reels, or 3 and 5 minutes for longer episodes.

Can I paste a full episode script from ChatGPT?

Yes. Paste the script with its scene notes and character descriptions. oVideo follows it, and you can change any scene before the episode is made.

Can I see it before I pay?

Yes. You see the storyboard, with the characters and the first scenes, before paying. Making every scene and the final video needs the Creator plan, from $40 a month ($30 billed yearly).

Can I make it realistic or animated?

Both. Realistic and Cinematic Live look filmed; 3D Cartoon, Pixar, Anime and Comic Book give an animated series.

Write episode one, or paste the script ChatGPT wrote. oVideo builds the scenes, gives every character a fixed look and their own voice, lets them speak their lines, and animates the episode. For the next part, reuse the same characters so the cast stays the same across the whole series.

Why series work

People come back for the next part

Short drama series grow because every episode ends on a question. The hard part with AI is keeping the cast the same from one part to the next; oVideo designs each character once and lets you use them again, so episode three still looks like episode one.

You write

The episode and its cliffhanger
Who says what
The look and the language
The length of each part

oVideo keeps

The same faces in every episode
A voice for each character
Scenes, camera and music
One video per episode

How it works

From idea to video in three steps

01
Write the idea
Type one line, paste your script or paste the full prompt ChatGPT wrote for you. Pick the style, the language, the length and who speaks.
02
Check the storyboard
oVideo writes the scenes, designs the characters and draws each scene. Change any scene, regenerate an image or give each character a voice.
03
Create the video
Every scene is animated and voiced, music goes underneath, and you get one finished video to post or edit further.

Better results

How to keep viewers hooked

End every episode on an unanswered question, then open the next one with it.
Keep the cast small: three or four main characters are easy to follow on a phone.
Write dialogue the way people talk, dialect included, and let the characters speak it.
Use the same style and the same characters for every episode of one series.
Number the parts in the title so viewers can find the next one.

Ideas

Series people make

Relationship drama. Betrayal, secrets and second chances, one twist per episode.
Family and village dramas. Local stories in local dialect, with a cast the audience gets to know.
Comedy series. A fixed group of characters in a neighbourhood, a new mess every part.
Fan concepts. A teaser for the season that never came, or a trailer for your own show.

Prompts

Drama series prompts people use

Shaped like the prompts people type into Story to Video most often, shortened and with the names changed. Copy one, swap in your own characters, and keep the length to 15, 30, 45 or 60 seconds, or 3 or 5 minutes.

Episode 1, 60 seconds
Episode 1 of a realistic family drama, vertical 9:16: Lina hears her stepmother whisper on the phone that Lina must never know the truth. A message from an unknown number says: open the drawer. End on the drawer opening.
Revenge drama, 3 minutes
A 3 minute realistic drama in Spanish: a soldier comes home after three years and finds his wife has been seeing his older brother. He leaves, meets a doctor who changes everything. Characters speak, short narrator links.
Romance series intro, 45 seconds
A 45 second cinematic intro for a romantic drama series: two strangers keep meeting at the same café, each time one of them almost speaks. Warm narrator, soft piano.
Next episode, 60 seconds
Episode 3 of the same series: keep Maryam in her beige blouse and her mother in a black abaya. Start where episode 2 ended, add one new secret and end on a cliffhanger.
