What is AI Micro-Drama Series Maker?

AI Micro-Drama Series Maker plans, produces and localises whole seasons of vertical (9:16) micro-dramas: short episodes with the same cast, places, looks and theme in every episode. A writers' room plans each episode with a hook and a cliffhanger, every shot goes to the video model that suits it, and each episode is a Movie Director project you can open and edit.

How to use AI Micro-Drama Series Maker

Full step-by-step guide

Step 1: Write the bible
Describe the series in a line or two and press Draft my bible, or fill it in yourself: title, genre, logline, tone, the world, content rating (Teen or Mature), platform, episode length and count, language and the visual style. Pick the languages to localise into and a music theme.
Step 2: Lock the cast and places
In Cast & places, make each character's portrait, a character sheet of extra views and any named looks (outfits, glasses, an injury). Make a vertical plate for each recurring place, saying its time of day and light. Every episode reuses them, with the same ids, so faces and places hold.
Step 3: Plan the season
In Season, plan up to 12 episodes at a time (8 for series written in Hindi, Bengali, Arabic, Japanese or Korean). Each outline has a 3-second hook, rising beats, a reveal, a cliffhanger and a “Previously on” line — and, for drama apps, suggested paywall points. Edit anything, then Continue the season for more.
Step 4: Render episodes
Tick the episodes and press Render. Scenes render a few at a time on the Movie Director's pipeline; each is charged when it starts and refunded automatically if it fails — unless the video model's provider refused it under its own safety rules and charged us (the batch says which). Keep the tab open while new scenes start — scenes already rendering finish even if you close it.
Step 5: Localise
In Localise, translate each episode's subtitles into your target languages and download SRT or VTT files. Add a voice dub (new voices speak the translated lines over the original music and sound), or use the AI Video Translator for a lip-synced dub of episodes up to 10 minutes.

See plans and credit prices

You pay per step, and every price is on its button before anything runs: drafting the bible, planning outlines and each episode's shots, and writing copy or subtitles are small steps; portraits, sheets, looks, plates, the theme and covers cost the same as in the Movie Director; each shot is priced by its video model, length and resolution; joining an episode in the cloud is priced by its length; a voice dub is priced by the episode's length and the words voiced. Production shows the price per episode and for the whole season under each quality profile.

Every price is shown on the button before anything runs, and every plan pays the same number of credits for a run. If a run fails on our side, its credits go back automatically.

AI Micro-Drama Series Maker: questions and answers

Why do different shots use different video models?

Each model is good at different things. Shots with your characters go to models that keep their faces from reference pictures (and speak the line); scenery and details go to lower-cost or cinematic models. You can change any shot's model, and the price updates before you render.

Will my characters look the same in every episode?

Every shot sends the character's locked portrait, sheet and look to a model that keeps identity from pictures — models that refuse realistic faces are never used for realistic characters. No AI model guarantees a pixel-identical face, so check each episode in Draft first.

Can I close the tab while a season renders?

Scenes that have started rendering finish on our servers and land on their episodes the next time you open the series. Starting new scenes needs the tab open. Cloud renders of whole episodes always keep going on their own.

What's the difference between a voice dub and a lip-synced dub?

A voice dub keeps the picture and replaces the dialogue with new voices speaking the translated lines — low-cost, for any episode up to 150 seconds, but lips don't match. The AI Video Translator dubs in the characters' own voices and re-syncs their lips, for videos up to 10 minutes, at its own price.

How much does AI Micro-Drama Series Maker cost?

Pricing: season outlines from 6 credits a batch · each episode's shot list 5 credits · shots from 11 credits, by model & length · subtitles 1 credit per episode and language. The exact price is shown before anything runs, and new accounts get 10 free credits to try QikTools (valid for 7 days, no card needed). Plans and top-ups are on the pricing page.

Are videos made with AI Micro-Drama Series Maker labelled as AI?

Yes. Every video AI Micro-Drama Series Maker makes carries a visible “AI-generated” label and signed Content Credentials that anyone can check on the verification page. Removing the label or the credentials isn't allowed.

What happens to my credits if a run fails in AI Micro-Drama Series Maker?

They go back automatically. The one exception: if a request passes our safety checks but the AI provider's own safety system refuses it and charges us for the attempt, the credits for that run are kept (Terms).

Who owns what I make with AI Micro-Drama Series Maker, and what happens to my data?

You own your inputs and, as far as the law and our AI providers' terms allow, what you create, including for commercial use. QikTools doesn't sell your data or train AI models on your content; some AI providers' own terms let them use what they receive (Privacy Policy).
