Create an AI short drama from a story idea
Organize your story, characters and storyboards in SekoTV Drama Studio. Review images, video and voice in stages, starting with one clear story idea.
A starting point you can adapt
Replace the story, names and references with your own. This is a writing example; copying it does not create assets or generate video.
A young book restorer discovers a letter addressed to herself ten years ago, hidden inside an old book. The story takes place in a bookshop on a rainy night and has only two main characters. Start with one 15-second episode, divided into 3 shots of about 5 seconds each: finding the letter, questioning its origin, and deciding to find the sender. Keep narration brief and add no subplots. Prepare the script, character references and storyboard first; review them before generating video.
Step by step
On desktop, open the creation homepage and choose Drama Studio. To continue an existing story, open it from My Space.

Make the story explicit
Describe the protagonist, goal, conflict and ending in the Drama Studio input. Specify the total duration and number of shots: for example, 15 seconds across 3 shots of about 5 seconds each. Check the selected mode and Multi-episode setting before submitting. Keep Multi-episode off for a single episode. Three story beats do not automatically mean three shots, so check the returned plan.

Review the script and character relationships
Read the story outline, art style, subjects, scenes and storyboard in the plan. Request specific changes while the plan is editable. If the product says a plan can no longer be edited after video generation, create a copy before revising it.

Turn the story into shots you can review
Check each shot description, spoken line, background sound and duration. If there are too many shots, simplify the plan around the essential events while retaining existing subjects and scenes. Open the video workspace and Editor to inspect clips. In Seedance Omni mode, several planned shots may be organized into one generated clip.

Test a few important shots first
Select a shot in the Editor and compare its reference thumbnails and names with the @subject references in the video prompt. Review the model, aspect ratio, duration and displayed credit cost before generating a small selection. Changing one shot within a combined clip may require regenerating the entire clip; allow for retries before continuing.

Watch the result in story order
Play the whole sequence in the Editor. Check transitions, appearance, movement, dialogue and sound. When satisfied, choose Export and follow the available options. Formats and access depend on the current product interface.

Limitations
A single generation does not guarantee a complete drama ready to publish. Review and revise individual shots.
Character consistency requires reference material and manual checks. Repeating a name is not a guarantee of continuity.
Models, parameters, credit costs and export access depend on the current product interface.
