Make a viral-style Character: deadpan, absurdly dressed, built around one haircut. Give them a gang, a World and a Series, then put them in your own clips: pick a clip, choose who's starring, press Make. Fame is not included. Sitcoms and cartoons are. Make a Character • Le Bob: a sculpted bob, sharp tailoring, a knowing half-smile. • Wacky: photoreal and absurd, crazier across the board. • More styles: Neo-Rococo, Mirrorball, Neon Après, Orbit, or upload a style picture of your own. • Roll a Character with zero input. Hair, face, outfit and colours get decided for you. • Not right? Redraw, go Wilder, or make a rival. • Character reference sheets help them stay recognisable from Clip to Clip. Put them in a Clip • Start from a Template: dance, boxing, walk-ins and more. • Or bring your own clip, choose the seconds to use, and check the available take length in the app. • Choose who's starring. Want the whole gang? Each one is its own take, made from the same moves. • Customize prompt on a finished take: change the setting, outfit, weather, props or camera, all at once. Each version is a separately priced new take. • Only use clips you have the rights to, with people who agree to AI processing. Give them a series • Write a Story from one sentence with the AI Director: Scenes first, then Episodes. • Film a Scene or a whole Episode. A series carries its Cast from Episode to Episode. • Your cat pays rent? That is a sitcom. Or make a cartoon Pick a Look for your World: flat primetime-style cartoon ink, clay, pixel art, painterly fantasy, watercolour and more. All Characters are AI-generated. Clips, Images and Stories are made with AI, so results vary: you review the takes and choose what to Film. A plan unlocks Clips and Film. Images and Story pictures use Credits. 17+.
