Many bloggers and live streams on the market are teaching you how to make comic dramas, saying you must catch this trend. In the end, they are either selling courses or taking on apprentices. During live streams, they even hide their prompts vaguely, as if you’ve touched their lifeline. A few recorded lessons cost you 599, one-on-one comic drama production costs you 13,800, I saw a live stream charging up to 50,000. Good heavens, are users this easy to exploit these days?

First, here are the full sets of prompts:

Step 1: Prompts for Generating the Story:

Please help me expand the XXX idea into a short drama literary script with a duration of about 30 minutes, totaling 10 episodes, 3 minutes per episode. Requirements:

1. Possess an extremely strong short drama rhythm, including a complete structure (introduction, development, climax, conclusion). There must be clear conflicts and unexpected climax twists.

2. Within the internal structure of each episode, you must follow the “Short, Flat, Fast” principle. There must be no nonsense or invalid empty shots.

3. “Golden First 3 Seconds” Rule: The first 3 seconds of each episode must be strong plot. For example, a slap, a highly impactful line of dialogue, or an action scene. Do not open with scenery or walking.

4. “A Twist Every 30 Seconds, A Climax Every 1 Minute”: A single episode script is approximately 600-800 characters. Within this length, it must contain at least one complete structure. Character dialogue should be straightforward and heartbreaking, use less subtext, and output emotions directly.

5. “Hook” Ending: The last 10 seconds of each episode must throw out an unknown suspense or an impending conflict. Absolutely do not resolve things perfectly at the end of a single episode; plot resolutions for crises should be placed at the beginning of the next episode.

6. Emotional Pull: Push the protagonist to the bottom in the early stage, making the audience feel strong “anger” and “sympathy”. Then the protagonist fights back from a desperate situation, bringing huge “release”.

7. Strong Setting (Golden Finger): Such as rebirth, system, mind reading, hidden richest man, hidden war god, etc. This makes the protagonist’s “counter-kill” reasonable and extremely satisfying.

8. Describe the scene atmosphere of each act in detail (e.g., cold and damp basement), lighting effects (e.g., high contrast, Tyndall light).

9. Refine character appearance features, core actions, and progressive emotional changes.

10. Please output in professional script format, including [Scene], [Time], [Characters], [Action Description], and [Dialogue].

Step 2: Prompts for Generating Character and Scene Reference Images:

Please analyze the script above and extract all appearing characters and core scenes. Write a set of prompts for AI painting for each character, requirements include: Three-view drawing (front, side, back), solid color background, character setting sheet, full body long shot, realistic cinematic texture, extremely detailed clothing fabric and facial feature descriptions. Write a set of prompts for each scene, requirements include: Scene concept art, physical lighting description, material details, and cinematic-level camera perspective.

Step 3: Prompts for Generating Storyboard Scripts:

Please help me convert this into a storyboard script based on the script.

Rules are as follows:

1. Divide into multiple segments, the total shot duration of each segment is controlled within 15 seconds (timestamps calculated from 0s, e.g., 0-3s, 3-6s). Each segment is composed of 4-5 shot groups.

2. Dialogue from the script must be accurately assigned to the corresponding shots.

3. When encountering emotional climax points, use more close-ups or push-ins; when encountering battle scenes, increase shot density, and extremely refine battle actions, weapon collision feedback, and camera movement methods.

4. The storyboard must have sufficient director mindset, perfectly coordinating the connection of shot groups such as character actions and emotional climaxes.

5. At the end of each major segment, must fixedly add this suffix: Realistic movie, 35mm film shooting, rich film grain. The picture is full of real physical texture, refusing cheap digital skin smoothing. High dynamic range, deep shadows. Video does not show subtitles, video does not show music.

6. Write it out in the format below, format reference as follows:

Segment 1

Plot Description: In the war-torn ruins, dense GPT mechanical legions surge like a tide. 豆包 moves through the enemy formation alone, wielding a long blade to奋力 slaughter surrounding mechanical soldiers.

Shot 1 [0-3s]: Long shot, overhead shot, war-torn Chongqing ruins scene

Shot 2 [3-6s]: Full shot, level shot, dense GPT mechanical legions advancing forward in the ruins

Shot 3 [6-9s]: Medium shot, tracking shot, 豆包 shuttles at high speed through the enemy formation

Shot 4 [9-12s]: Close-up, side shot, 豆包 wields a glowing long blade to cut off two mechanical soldiers

Shot 5 [12-15s]: Close-up, action tracking, mecha sparks flying, 豆包 lands and rolls

Day or Night, xx style, Video does not show subtitles, Video does not show music

Story Generation Tools: 豆包，use Gemini if conditions allow

Operation Demo: First generate a story based on your own ideas, for example, I’ll take the popular rebirth revenge on the market as an example, input my own idea: A man tried to please his idealized crush in every way in his past life, although they eventually married, the idealized crush always cheated with her own true love, treating the man as an ATM and a tool. Eventually the man was persecuted to death by the idealized crush’s family, and didn’t even get a good reputation. He is reborn, in this life he not only wants to revenge all the dirty villains, but also slowly torture them, letting them feel pain and despair. Finally, the man not only cleaned up all the villains, but also achieved success and fame, winning the beauty.

Get the following story:

Input the Step 1 prompt and continue the dialogue:

Browse through, the plot has many satisfaction points, of course you can modify it according to your ideas

Next copy the Step 2 prompt, extract the characters and scenes appearing in the novel, use drawing tools to produce these assets for backup.

There are many characters appearing inside so I won’t screenshot them, just for demo, then we separately copy these characters’ three-view prompts into the image generation tool (豆包，即梦，if conditions allow use MJ and 香蕉)

Character prompts need appropriate modification, remove close-up shots, you can follow me, for example:

Full body long shot. A 28-year-old Chinese male, business tycoon, deep facial contours, cold and肃杀 feeling between eyebrows, black hair combed back meticulously. Wearing custom dark purple dark pattern silk suit, fabric has delicate satin reflection and hand embroidery details, inner wear charcoal cashmere vest. Solid dark gray background, realistic cinematic texture, 8k ultra HD, Hasselblad lens shooting

Pick one to download, then use this prompt to generate a four-view: Generate reference character facial close-up and character full body three-view (the leftmost is the character facial super large close-up, the right side places the character front full body shot, side full body shot, back full body shot, on one screen), pure white background

Suddenly have a Hu Ge vibe, but definitely won’t pass, can convert to line art input: Convert to color pencil sketch

Follow this method, generate four-views for all characters and convert to line art for backup;

Follow the same method for scene prompts, no need to convert to line art

Generate all your character and scene asset images and save for backup (AI generated character faces are all similar, if you want characters to look rich and full, put more effort into modifying them);

Next we copy the Step 3 prompt, generate a storyboard script that can directly output video

Copy the prompt into 即梦：Format reference like mine:

Night, Realistic movie, 35mm film shooting, rich film grain. The picture is full of real physical texture, refusing cheap digital skin smoothing. High dynamic range, deep shadows. Video does not show subtitles, Video does not show music.

• Shot 1 [0-3s]: Close-up, overhead shot. 沈修@Image’s leather shoes step on the luxurious marble floor, beside the feet is a pile of luxury shopping bags dropped by 林婉清 while acting coquettishly.

• Shot 2 [3-7s]: Close-up, push-in. 林婉清@Image holds 沈修’s arm with both hands, eyes looking up coquettishly, lips moving slightly: “Xiu, the Gu Cheng project really only lacks this ten million.”

• Shot 3 [7-10s]: Close-up, level shot. 沈修 expressionless, eyes like ice, slender fingers take out a signed check from the suit pocket.

• Shot 4 [10-13s]: Close-up, slow motion. 沈修 tears the check into shards in front of 林婉清，expressionless. Paper scraps fall like snowflakes on 林婉清’s shocked face.

• Shot 5 [13-15s]: Medium shot, low angle仰拍。沈修 sneers: “This money, if I use it to feed dogs, the dogs will still wag their tails at me.” Then turns and walks into the darkness.

• I didn’t upload the video here, my account is working on other videos, always queuing.

• Alright, viewers, if you still have no clue, have read a bunch of materials but haven’t taken the first step, hope this article helps you. If there’s anything not detailed enough or places you don’t understand during the production process, welcome to the comments section, I will answer one by one.
