Three minutes and seventeen seconds of anime, with no animation studio.
A music video is the hardest thing to justify on a release budget: it is a short film with a fixed delivery date and no direct revenue attached. We built this one as a generative production — storyboarded like a film, rendered like a film, but with the shoot replaced by a pipeline. The result is a continuous narrative across 27 scenes, cut to the track.

The full edit
The complete 3:17 cut. This web version carries no audio track — the visual edit is timed to the song, which is delivered separately to the artist.
Selected scenes
Eight of the twenty-seven. Continuity of character, apartment, light and colour is held across the whole film — that is the part generative video usually fails at, and the part the storyboard stage exists to solve.
How it was made
- 01
Track and timeline
The song is transcribed and timed first, so every scene has a bar range to live in and the edit is locked to the music before any image exists.
- 02
Storyboard with gpt-image-2
Twenty-seven scenes, each approved as a still frame — character design, apartment layout, palette and lighting fixed before motion.
- 03
Motion with seedance-2.0
Each approved board becomes a shot, re-rolled until the camera move and the physics match the intent. Specific shots were run through kling-v3-omni-video instead.
- 04
Edit, grade, master
Cut to the track, colour graded for a consistent look across the film, and mastered in the ratios the release needed.
What this means for a label
- A full narrative music video without a shoot or a location budget
- A visual language that no stock library or template can supply
- Boards approved before render, so surprises happen on paper
- Delivery on a release timeline rather than a production one
- Vertical and square cuts from the same masters for social
- Extra scenes and alternate edits without going back to camera
