This Cinematic AI Film Workflow Changes Everything!
Try Topview → https://www.topview.ai/?via=khalil Can GPT-6 Astra build a complete AI mini drama from scratch with very little direction? I put it to the test inside Codex using the Topview plugin, GPT Image 2.5, and Seedance 2.5—and the result actually surprised me. I started without a story, characters, or a location. I asked the agent to research the microdrama format, develop an original concept, write a roughly 60-second episode, and build the assets needed to produce it. Then I watched it work inside Topview Canvas. In this walkthrough, you’ll see the AI filmmaking workflow from research and scriptwriting to character references, image generation, dialogue, video continuity, and the finished vertical episode. I also ran a MiniMax H3 Max version along the way to see how the same story held up with another model. This wasn’t zero human input. I made decisions about resolution, voices, references, and generation settings. The experiment was how much of the production work I could hand off without manually prompting every asset and shot. The finished episode is “The Daughter They Erased.” I’d still tighten some pacing and performances, but getting from a blank slate to this result changed how I think about working with AI agents.
