What is DramaClaw
DramaClaw is an industrial-grade AIGC video production tool, mainly targeting multi-type video creation scenarios such as AI short dramas, comic dramas, novel promotion videos, and commentary dramas. Based on the self-developed Lingshan AI large model, the tool provides a one-stop pipeline from script import to final video output, focusing on deterministic production. Through a virtual 3D director world, it ensures high consistency of characters, scenes, and narrative style over long-form content, saying goodbye to the gacha randomness of traditional AI video.
Main Features of DramaClaw
-
Intelligent Script Parsing: Automatically identifies chapter structure, extracts characters, scenes, and props, and supports file upload or text pasting.
-
Asset Library Management (Shrimp Pond): Centrally manages characters, scenes, props, and voices, and supports character image generation, voice configuration (IndexTTS2), and three-view appearance design.
-
360 Panorama and Director World: Generates source images, back views, and 360 panoramas for core scenes, and builds an interactive virtual 3D film set.
-
Automatic Storyboard Planning (Shrimp Lens): Intelligently plans episodes and automatically generates complete scripts with speakers, dialogue, and visual descriptions.
-
Line Art to Rendering (Shrimp Director): First outputs line-art sketches to confirm composition, then generates final rendered images, supporting foreground/background layering and character placement.
-
Video Composition Output: Composites storyboards, voiceovers, and visuals into a complete video, supporting multiple style switches.
How to Use DramaClaw
- Create a Project: Visit the DramaClaw official website https://dramaclaw.ai and create a new project, then enter the project name.
- Import Script (Shrimp Material): Upload a novel file or paste script text, select a visual style, and click Start Import.
- Extract Assets (Shrimp Pond): Enter the Shrimp Pond asset library, click "Auto Extract" to identify characters, scenes, and props; generate avatars for characters, configure voices, and set protagonist identities.
- Build Scenes: Generate 360 panoramas for recurring core scenes, and build a director world when necessary to lock spatial coordinates.
- Generate Storyboards (Shrimp Lens): The system automatically plans episodes and generates scripts, including speakers, dialogue, and visual descriptions.
- Confirm Line Art and Rendering (Shrimp Director): At the shot stage, first view the line-art sketch, and after confirming the composition is correct, generate the rendered image and execute final video composition.
- Export the Final Video: After composition is complete, export the final video, or obtain the open-source code on GitHub for local secondary development.
Core Advantages of DramaClaw
- Deterministic Production: Establishes a spatial coordinate system through the director world, completely solving the problem of character and scene inconsistency across shots.
- Extremely Low Cost: Comprehensive production cost is compressed to about 20 yuan/minute, reducing the cost of creative validation to the level of a breakfast.
- Open Source and Free: The core code has been open-sourced on GitHub, supporting secondary development and customization, breaking down commercial barriers.
- Fully Automated Workflow: From script parsing to final video output, no complex prompts are needed; creators only need to focus on creativity and decisions.
- Industrial-Grade Standards: For scenarios such as animated dramas, advertising, and otome games, the output quality meets the delivery requirements of commercial projects.
