Tell it as a story. In hand-drawn ink.

Give it a story or a message. The agent writes it, casts the characters and acts it out in black ink on white, with faces, poses, thought bubbles, props and a narrator.

How it works

One prompt. Here’s everything the agent does.

Give it a story idea, or a message to tell as a story. It writes it, casts the characters and acts it out in black ink on white, with a narrator and light, playful music. Planning to the storyboard takes a few minutes, and a 30-second story costs about $0.20 in AI, music included.

The Last Blank Page
  1. Writes the story

    Who it’s about, what goes wrong, the turn and the lesson, in short scenes of 3–7 seconds.

  2. Casts the characters

    Original characters, each with its own hair, glasses or tie, kept the same in every scene.

  3. Writes the script and plans every scene

    Each scene gets its poses, expressions, bubbles and props, with hard cuts inside a sequence and fades between them.

  4. Draws what the story needs

    Anything beyond the kit (a van, a rocket, a pet) is drawn by AI illustrators in the same ink style.

  5. Writes the animation for every scene

    A scene writer per scene, all in parallel, writes real motion graphics (sometimes 3D), compiles it and looks at stills of its own scene.

  6. Checks its own work

    Text that’s too long, timing against your chosen length, then a director’s review of every scene’s stills, fixing what’s clearly wrong.

  7. You approve the storyboardYou

    A sketch, title, length and narration for every scene. It stops here until you approve, or ask for changes in plain words.

  8. Voices it and times every word

    The voice you picked reads the script, then speech-to-text times each word so the visuals land on it.

  9. Adds the music

    Light, playful music by default: composed by AI, or a free Creative Commons track with its credit.

  10. You watch it and ask for changesYou

    It plays right away in the app. Say what to change, for the whole video or one scene; only what changed is rebuilt.

  11. Export, and get your publish kitYou

    Export renders a 1080p MP4. Publish writes your titles, descriptions with chapters, hashtags and three thumbnails, ready to paste.

Tips

Get a better first draft

1
Give it a turn

Who it’s about, what goes wrong, the turn and the lesson make a story worth watching.

2
Name the characters

“Sam” and “neighbour Mia” become a cast with fixed looks.

3
Direct the acting

“Make Mia wave as she walks in” changes that scene only.

Kinisma vs whiteboard & doodle tools

VideoScribe and Doodly give you a hand-drawn library; you still build and time every scene. Vyond animates characters, but you assemble each shot.
