I've been reading Korean comics(manwha) for over 6 years and I always thought "this would be really cool if X series got turned into an anime" so I attempted that idea-little did I know how expensive and time consuming that thought was. btw the story is 'Noble Lady Reformation Guide' check it out, story isn't too bad
Tech stack is mainly Seedance 2.0 for image and video gen, everything else is your routine video production stack(storyboarder, shotcut, davinci resolve, etc). While I personally think it turned out all right there's clearly plenty of faults and room for improvements.
Like the pacing is too fast, the story doesn't feel compelling enough, characters feel flat, etc. Human taste, shot selection, and emotional build up was something gemini,claude, chatgpt couldn't accomplish.
Also the voice acting is atrocious. Eleven labs consistency is not good for long clips and the fact that I can't have child voices(understandably so) limits so much of the work. Just means I need real voice actors
That said this was really fun(and expensive) to learn the film/anime production process. I wouldn't be surprised if we could get AOT/JJK level animation in 5 years with AI.
Happy to talk about feedback on the cold open, resources/recommendations you have on being a better director/screenwriter, or the production pipeline and how you can create your own anime(hint it's a lot of work/money)
