Every A.I. artist knows this feeling! Here is my complete workflow & learnings for creating this 3-minute film! ...
I had SO many learnings about
@BytedanceTalk Seedance 2.0 while creating this piece! Most important: there is a HUGE difference in quality between Reference Mode and Startframe Mode. Somehow the quality drops if you use only one image in Reference Mode. So I burned through a lot of credits finding this out.
@TapNow_AI has both, so it was easy to switch to Startframe Mode. But this is something you really need to know about Seedance 2.0.
I started by writing the script. Then I jumped into startframe generation.
@TapNow_AI has ALL the models, so I used OpenAI Sora (yes, the good old Sora) to create the initial characters. My process is always to generate a couple of characters with video models! For me, the characters look much more realistic when generated with Sora instead of Google Nano Banana.
Then I iterate with Nano Banana on still frames from these initial video gens and use the output as startframes again. I repeat this process for each scene.
This was made entirely on TapNow with Seedance,
@OpenAI Sora, and
@Google Nano Banana 2 / Pro.
Huge THANKS to Justin Bässler who worked with me on this can recommend following this guy, more is coming from him!
But one big question: how do you guys stay organized on open canvas systems? Even though you can group elements and Tapnow has great features for that, I feel lost after the first 100–200 gens.
