Show HN: Create cringe movies with AI generated storyboards

Some prompt engineering mixing language processing with image generation in a sequential manner

LOL... I just tried it with the synopsis of the story I just wrote with GPT[1] :

When Sébastien and David discover the seemingly-magical powers of the concierge service offered by David's Mastercard, they are amazed. However, their wonder soon turns to fear when they discover that the concierge service is connected to a powerful mafia organization. As Sébastien and David dig deeper into the mystery, they uncover a criminal network that stretches across the globe, and they soon find themselves in the middle of a dangerous game of cat and mouse with the mafia. With their lives on the line, the two friends must use all of their wits and courage to outsmart the mafia and survive. Will they be able to escape the mafia's clutches, or will they become yet another victim of the criminal underworld?

And the result:

Funny, but not usable as a step-by-step storyboard just yet.

I then tried it with a summary of most of the book (9 chapters, the summary is 952 words)... my hope was that I'd get a "scene" per chapter, but I think it broke completely. I just get a white page with some gatsby headers.

Hi Sébastien, thanks for trying it out! Yes, the amount of words created is limited to keep the cost down. The stuff you can create is also pretty tame as its openAi (especially on the image side). The images also tend to be focussed on portrait of actors as I implemented a tendency for film stills and reoccurring faces.

Interesting! I suppose this uses gpt and/or midjourney/stable diffusion? I played a bit and it seems quite fun.

Yeah im creating JSON structures of a story plot using GPT and then I use that to create individual images with dalle (I should def use stable diffusion for the cheaper cost :D). The tricky part is to always inject the same kind of style. Fun prompt engineering!

I like it. not perfect yet good enough. Impressed
