The challenge
Short video rewards stories people come back to. Until recently, a series with recurring characters needed a film crew for every episode. The question we set out to answer: can generative AI carry a real series, with the same faces, the same world and a new episode each week, in ninety seconds or less?
Our contribution
Operal Studio works like a small writers’ room and production team. We write the series bible, design the characters and define the look before anything is generated. Each episode then gets a script, a shot list, generated picture, voice, sound and music, an edit with captions, and a human review before it is published. Every film is labelled as AI-assisted.
The outcome
Demo productions for four organisations, each in its own style: a 3D mascot series for SixrCricket, a cinematic trailer concept for Amouage, a thriller trailer for Stashhouse, and nature shorts with Pori the fox for the Porini Foundation. The films on this page are demos and pilots; we do not report audience figures for them.
