The prompt behind it.

Original prompt
Create a ~5 min creepy short film about AI going rogue. I asked for it to use Z-Image to create the character and locaton ref images and MiniMax H3 with **built-in audio** for the video, all made using my Video Builder. Then I went to bed.
    
    **Claude made everything:**
     the story, characters and dialogue; the character and location images; all 45 scene prompts; a 3-cue score with MiniMax Music 3; and the final edit.
    
    **What it used:**
     my custom nodes were 
    **read-only**
    , so it could read and call them but not change anything. It created a project folder to store everything it created along with notes and a full readme with its full process. It chose my Video Builder's own Z-Image and MiniMax H3 2-pass routes, its latent continuation to keep characters in place across cuts, and its stitch for the edit. It also set up Whisper and voice analysis to check its own renders and re-roll bad takes. So it would actaully review each scene after it was rendered and if it found issues it would re make the prompt and re-run it till it looked good.
    
    **After that**
     I just watched the preview and had Claude make edits (some examples): someone looking at the camera instead of the kid, cloned faces in a crowd, a character teleporting between scenes, a mouth moving when it shouldn't. Claude fixed them all.
    
    **H3 tips it figured out:**
    - Tags like `<pause>` sometimes get spoken out loud. `<breath>` works.
    - "Soft" or "gentle" wording can flip a male voice to female.
    - Give each silent character their own "lips pressed together" line.
    
    
    All rendered locally, about 8–10 minutes per scene. Happy to answer questions!
    
    Note: I did bring the final edit into Capcut and Added a color filter overlay and one transition to one spot. That is the ONLY post that I added.

    For anyone who has a graphics card that can run Minimax H3 (16gb of vram minimum recomeneded)
    My GitHub page is here: https://github.com/vrgamegirl19/comfyui-vrgamedevgirl
    
    Right now, there is a Main version and a Beta 2.0 version. I recommend starting with Main for now, as that's what I used for this and it works well, while Beta 2.0 still has some bugs and is primarily intended for beta testing at the moment.
