Pip and the Lighthouse, a bedtime story made with EasyVid from a short story idea. Turn the sound on.

An AI animated story maker turns a story into an animated video. Give EasyVid a one-line idea or a story you wrote, and it plans the scenes, designs the characters and places, writes the narration, and generates every scene in the style you pick.

An animated story only works if it feels like one story. In EasyVid each character is designed once, as a character card, and reused in every scene they appear in, so the fox in the first scene is the same fox at the end. The places in the story are kept the same way.

Use it as an AI story video generator from a short prompt, or paste a story you already wrote: EasyVid splits it into scenes without changing your words. It works for bedtime stories, kids' stories, fables, and any short tale you want told with pictures.

How to make an animated story with AI

From an idea or a finished story to an animated video in five steps.

1

Start a project

Pick Classic Mode for a narrated story built scene by scene, or Director Mode for characters who speak their own lines with lip sync.

2

Describe the story or paste your own

One or two sentences is enough: who it is about, where it happens, and what goes wrong. Or paste a story you wrote and click Fix formatting to turn it into scenes.

3

Choose a style and shape

Pick 3D animation, anime, cartoon, claymation, or digital art, or describe a style of your own. Choose vertical, square, or landscape.

4

Generate the script and storyboard

EasyVid writes the narration, creates a card for each character and place, and generates every scene with the same characters in it.

5

Animate, voice, and render

Regenerate any scene you want to change, animate the scenes, pick a narrator voice, subtitles, and music, then render your story.

AI Animated Story Maker FAQ

What is an AI animated story maker?

It is a tool that turns a written story or a short idea into an animated video. EasyVid writes the narration, designs the characters and places, generates each scene, and adds a voice and subtitles, so you get a finished story video without drawing or animating anything.

Can I turn my own story into an animated video?

Yes. Paste your story into the script editor and click Fix formatting. EasyVid splits it into scenes and finds the characters and places without changing your story or your words. Use stories you wrote or have the rights to.

Will my characters look the same in every scene?

Yes. Each character gets a character card with a reference image, and that card is used in every scene the character appears in. Places work the same way, so a lighthouse or a bedroom looks the same each time the story returns to it.

Can I use my own character drawing?

Yes. Attach a drawing or photo of your character to your story prompt, or upload it to the character's card, and EasyVid uses it as that character's reference image.

Can I make bedtime stories and kids' stories?

Yes. Choose the Narrated Story type, describe the story, and pick a soft style such as 3D animation, anime, or cartoon. The Pip and the Lighthouse video on this page was made this way.

What animation styles can I choose?

3D animation, anime, cartoon, claymation, and digital art. You can also describe a style of your own in words, or upload an image and EasyVid matches its look.

Who narrates the story?

An AI narrator voice that you choose from a list of voices. You can listen to each one, switch voices, and regenerate the audio until it sounds right. Narration also works in other languages, including Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Japanese, and Korean.

Can the characters talk to each other?

Yes. In Director Mode, characters speak their own lines and their mouths move with the words. In Classic Mode, stories are usually told by a narrator.

How long can an animated story be?

Videos can be up to 10 minutes long on any paid plan, which is room for a full bedtime story or a short episode.

Can I post my animated stories on YouTube?

Yes. On a paid plan you can use your videos commercially, including on monetized YouTube channels. Export vertical (9:16) for Shorts and Reels or landscape (16:9) for YouTube.
