3 Minutes to Make Animated Videos with AI & ChatGPT

ChatGPT will generate all sorts of stories and scripts for you, as long as you know how to write good prompts.

A good story can’t go without a theme. If you have no idea what story your video is going to tell, first, you should ask ChatGPT for some suggestions. You can input a query like what are the 10 stories children/teenagers/YouTubers love. Pick a story theme that interests you most.

Have a theme in your mind? Ask ChatGPT to generate a story directly. Instead of entering queries like generating a story about [story name], try entering queries like generating a story about [story name] in kid’s tone, or generating a story about [story name] in 200 words. Adding some requirements to your query will always increase the chance that you may love the story generated by ChatGPT.
