LudovicCreator · x · 2026-08-29
A detailed workflow showcasing how to turn a character sheet into a 4K ProRes animation using a combination of Midjourney V8.2, Topaz Labs, and Seedance.
The Stack:
- Ideation & Character Sheet: Generated with Midjourney V8.2, utilizing the new Edit Image model to lock facial features across the grid.
- Upscale: Topaz Labs Bloom 2 for image upscaling.
- Animation: Seedance 2.5 to generate 720p video (cover via Dreamina AI).
- Final Output: Starlight 2.6 for upscaling to 4K / 30fps / ProRes 10-bit.
Inspired by community tests on the GenIArtFr Discord, this pipeline addresses character consistency. The author notes that prompts and settings will follow.
