What it does
💥 From Drawing to Story: Auto-Publish AI Video to YouTube with Blotato Overview Transform a hand-drawn character sketch into a fully animated, narrated video story — automatically. This 3-part pipeline uses Claude AI, image generation, and video synthesis to go from a simple drawing to a publish-ready video, with no manual editing required. Perfect for: indie creators, educators, storytellers, and anyone who wants to bring hand-drawn characters to life at scale. --- How It Works Part 1 — From Drawing to Story: Bringing Characters to Life 1. A form submission triggers the workflow with an uploaded drawing 2. The image is analyzed by Claude AI to extract characters and traits 3. Character images are generated via Nano Banana (image generation API) 4. A full story is written by Claude AI, split into scenes, and passed to Part 2 Part 2 — From Characters to Scenes: Rendering the Visual Story 1. Character images are downloaded and converted to Base64 references 2. Scene images are generated using Nano Banana with character consistency 3. Scene image URLs are mapped and the video pipeline is triggered Part 3 — From Scenes to Screen: Video, Narration & Final Render 1. Video prompts and narration context are generated by Claude AI 2. Videos are generated via AtlasCloud (Kling Pro 3.0) with polling loop 3. Narration audio is created with ElevenLabs and uploaded 4. Shotstack assembles the final video with audio sync 5. Final video is published to YouTube (and optionally TikTok) > ⚠️ Important — Workflow Structure > > This template is split into 3 separate workflows. > Each part must be imported and deployed in its own workflow in n8n. > > 📺 Watch the step-by-step tutorial to set everything up correctly: > > @youtube(bmx4IHX5lhI) --- Requirements Credentials needed - Blotato API credentials (YouTube/TikTok publishing) - AtlasCloud API (Kling Pro 3.0 video generation) - Anthropic API key (Claude AI for story & prompts) - ElevenLabs API key (narration audio) - Shotstack API key (video assembly) - Nano Banana API key (image generation) Setup steps 1. Configure credentials for each service above in n8n 2. Set up a form trigger with a file upload field for the drawing 3. Deploy the 3 workflows in order and connect them via webhooks 4.
