So, as an ordinary person, how can you use AI to quickly create such idiom story videos? AIbase will continue to share practical tutorial steps with you, teaching you how to make such works step by step.

Suitable Audience

Individuals or teams interested in traditional culture, educational content creation, and new media operations, especially those hoping to explore new forms of content creation in the fields of children's education and cultural heritage.

Difficulty Level

Moderate. Requires the ability to use AI story creation tools, as well as basic skills in video editing and content promotion.

Operational Process Method

Story Creation:

Use AI tools (such as GPT) to create or adapt idiom stories. Let's take the idiom "The Tortoise and the Hare" as an example, and ask KIMI to generate a short story script suitable for children. To prevent the generated story script from being too long, it's best to limit the length of the generated script in your instructions. As shown in the image below, the script length is limited to around 150 words, with the instruction part extracted from the image.

Storyboard Design:

After generating the text story, the next step is to design the storyboard, including visual descriptions of each scene and AI painting prompts. Let's continue with the idiom "The Tortoise and the Hare" to generate storyboards.
This operation is also very simple. First, input the storyboard instruction in the KIMI dialog box. The specific instruction is as follows:

After inputting the instruction, then input the idiom story script for the "The Tortoise and the Hare," and the storyboard will be generated. The result is as follows:

AI Painting Production:

Use tools that can generate AI images (such as Midjourney, JIMENG, Tencent Yuanbao, etc.) to generate images based on the storyboard prompts.
In this case, we directly choose to use Tencent Yuanbao to generate 3D cartoon-style images, which are relatively fast and have good effects. Below, we directly let Tencent Yuanbao generate a series of images based on the generated text storyboard prompts.
It's important to note that to ensure a consistent character style, it's best to fix the animal image and style type for each prompt, such as the white rabbit and green turtle in the prompts, and the 3D cartoon style. The generated effect is as follows:

If the characters are not consistent, you can adjust the prompts to achieve the desired effect.

Video Editing and Voiceover:

Import the AI-generated images into a video editing software, add background music and voiceover, and create a short video. The operation is simple: import the series of images generated above into the video editing software, add text subtitles, background music, etc.
