What one episode needs
The same people from start to end
Main characters and sets get reference pictures first, and every frame follows them.
The beat sheet comes before the pictures
Each beat's job, framing, and line is written first, and you can change it.
How it is made
Read the bible and the beat sheet
Who stays the same, each beat's dramatic job, and every line come first.
Then pictures, voices, and the cut
Reference pictures, stills, voiced lines, and the score, with the chosen shots joined into a vertical episode.
Romance, suspense, comedy, and tearjerkers
A drama with a twist ending
One idea, with the hook, the turn, and the close made into motion shots.
The next episode of a series
The same characters, wardrobe, and sets, carried into the next episode.

Questions
What do I need to start?
A premise: who it is about, what happens, and how it ends. The beat sheet and every line are written from it.
Is every line voiced?
Yes. One line per speaking beat, in that character's voice.
What does the finished episode look like?
One vertical 9:16 MP4 episode. It joins the hook, turn, and ending shots, each animated from its image, with the voiced lines, score, and subtitles.
Can I use my own photos or voice?
Yes. Up to four face, costume, or location photos become the references for the images, and a clean single-speaker recording can become a character's voice.
