GIF Storyboards with ChatGPT and Three.js: How to Save on Seedance

Executive TL;DR30s read

Opus helps create 3D storyboards and GIF references in Claude or ChatGPT before spending money on the Seedance video model.

Interestingly, Opus helps save a lot on Seedance. Previously, such 3D storyboards were animated in Blender; now it is enough to build and animate a scene directly in Claude or ChatGPT through a Three.js skill. It is cheaper and simpler to first agree on motion and composition with a client.

You can quickly create storyboard references for future videos made with AI video models. It should be easier than generating full 3D graphics.

No special prompts are needed: just ask to recreate the default western scene. The cowboy fell like a sack of manure, but you get the idea.

So, before spending money on Seedance:

  1. Generate a text prompt and script with timecodes in ChatGPT.
  2. Turn it into a GIF and edit it until the result is right, asking to save it in mp4 format.
  3. Take the prompt, GIF, and image references to the video model.

Why it matters

Analysis

Prototyping motion and composition before using expensive video generation reduces waste and makes client feedback faster and cheaper.
