imagine being able to create your own animated characters that stay perfectly consistent throughout your videos all with the help of AI sounds pretty awesome right well that's exactly what we're going to cover today if you're someone who's looking to create animated cartoons kids stories or even short films this video is going to be super valuable for you we're going to learn how to use halo.com a textto video AI model to create consistent animated characters I'll break everything down step by step so even if you're a complete beginner you'll be able to follow along and create
something amazing step one creating your story the first thing we need is a story that will serve as the foundation for your animated video you can easily create a simple story using any AI tool like chat GPT or Bing AI don't worry this part is super easy go to chat GPT and type a prompt like this give me 10 prompts to create a short kid story with two main characters a boy named moo and a girl named Freya chat GPT will give you 10 different story ideas that cover various Adventures themes take your time to
look through the ideas and pick the one you like best once you have chosen a prompt tell chat GPT to write the full story based on your choice in just a few seconds the AI will generate a complete story for you for this example I selected the friendly monster a short story where Mo and Freya meet a cute friendly monster once you have the story it's important to remember that our main focus is on making sure Mo and Freya look the same in every scene of your animation consistency is key here so let's move on
to how we can achieve that step two describing your characters now that we've got the story we need to create detailed descriptions of our characters to make sure their appearance stays the same throughout the video to help with this I'll share two methods for developing detailed character descriptions the first method involves using chat GPT we can input our story script and ask chat GPT to analyze it based on the story's context chat GPT can generate detailed descriptions of each character open chat GPT in a new browser tab keep in mind this will be our main
chat GPT tab then copy The Prompt I've provided in the video description and paste it into the chat GPT now copy the story script you just created and paste it into chat GPT The Prompt will instruct chat GPT to analyze the script and generate detailed descriptions for each character such as their facial features age clothing and other details this is key because every time we use Mo and Freya in a scene Chad GPT will automatically add these details to ensure consistency in the second method we will search for 3D cartoon characters on Google look for
copyright free images or pngs with transparent backgrounds so you can use them without any legal issues once you find characters that match the style or appearance you want download them if you prefer you can use an AI tool to generate your own characters but make sure there saved as PNG files with transparent backgrounds you can remove the background from your image by using the website remove. DG now we have the images of Mo and Freya after you remove the background of the character images it's time to upload them into chat GPT then chat GPT will
analyze these images and generate detailed descriptions of the characters here is how you can do it let's start with freya's image open the new chat GPT Tab and there's an option to upload files upload Freya Image First Once freya's image is uploaded copy the specific prompt from the video description and paste it into chat GPT along with her image hit enter chat GPT will now give you a detailed description of freya's character based on the image this will serve as the foundation for all future prompts related to her appearance in the story next we'll do
the same for moo upload Moo's image into chat GPT copy The Prompt for Mo from the description paste it into chat GPT and hit enter chat PPT will generate a detailed prompt for moo just like it did for Freya now we have character prompts for both Mo and Freya and we're ready to move on to the next step step three setting up character consistency we're now going to take these character descriptions and make sure chat GPT understands that every time Mo and Freya appear in the story they should use those exact details to keep them
consistent throughout the animation here's what you'll do first copy prompt 4 from the video description and paste it into the main chat GPT tab but before hitting enter go back to the tab where you generated Moo's description copy all of Miko's details and paste them together with prompt for in the main tab by doing this you ensure that every time Moo's name appears in the script chat GPT will automatically include those specific details this helps maintain consistency in the character's appearance and behavior throughout the entire video repeat the same steps for Freya and any other
main character in your story this will lock in the consistency for all the characters throughout the script step four generating the video in h now comes the exciting part creating the video we'll use Minimax a text to video tool that can take the prompts we've created and turn them into animations here's how to do it go to the haly website it's free for now but it may change in the future once you're there click the second green button to access the video creation workspace now we have to create prompts to generate video for that copy
the first scene of your story and go back to the main chat GPT tab paste the scene into chat GPT and let it generate a detailed prompt that includes both moo and freya's appearance as well as the environment of the scene once you have the prompt you're ready to bring it into haloi copy and paste the generated prompt into haloi in the video description section and click generate video and wait for the magic to happen the video will take a couple of minutes to generate but once it's done you'll have a short animation now let's
take another scene from the story to check if the character remains consistent follow the same steps as before copy the second scene from the story and paste it into the main chat GPT tab let chat GPT process the scene and provide a detailed prompt including character details once chat GPT gives you the prompt copy it and paste it into the haloi text Box review The Prompt to ensure everything looks correct if there's anything to change or improve modify the prompt before proceeding finally click create to complete the process look these videos look incredible and the
best part is that the characters stay consistent in all of them if you ever want to change your characters like updating their outfits or adding new features you can easily do that by adjusting the prompts we created in chat GPT and that's it by following these steps you'll be able to create animated videos with characters that stay consistent from start to finish I hope you found this tutorial helpful if you did please give the video a like and share it with others who might benefit from it and don't forget to subscribe for more AI videos
