What it does
The skill takes a story, from a single sentence to a novel, and returns five documents ready to move onto generation platforms. The style comes from the Shanghai Animation Film Studio: classic hand-drawn animation with summary forms and flat mineral-pigment fills, in the vein of Havoc in Heaven and The Nine-Colored Deer. All texts are in Chinese. The output: a script with narrator, dialogue and caption cards, a palette for the whole drama (for example cinnabar, gold, ink), an asset list with character, scene and prop prompts for Jimeng and Seedream, per-episode storyboards with Seedance 2.0 timeline prompts and a last-frame description for seamless continuation into the next episode. An episode runs 15 seconds. The style holds through three devices: a fixed style-spell block at the start of every prompt, two hard commands at the end (pure 2D flat fill, no shadows, gradients or volume) and one color set for the whole drama. Sub-styles (blue stone and ink picture book, watercolor, paper cut, Dunhuang mural) and a Seedance 2.0 manual are included.
Who it is for. Creators of short animated dramas and content makers who build clips in Jimeng, Seedream and Seedance and want a single style with no drift.
Good fit when
- You need a five-episode, 15-second drama of the Wu Song and the tiger story
- A tale has to become a script with narrator and caption cards for animation
- Generated images drift into 3D and shadows when you want flat fills
- All episodes need one palette with no color drift
- The next episode must continue from the previous last frame
Not a fit when
- You want another style, such as realism: the skill is built for the studio's classic animation and other styles need a general process
- You want a finished clip: the skill outputs documents and prompts, and the video is made on platforms
- You want English text: documents are in Chinese, and English prompts exist only for Midjourney
Example request
Make five 15-second episodes in this style from the Wu Song and the tiger story, vertical formatLimitations
The skill targets Chinese platforms: Jimeng, Seedream, Doubao and Seedance 2.0, with an English style block available for Midjourney. Documents stay in Chinese, and the two closing commands in a prompt must not be removed if shadows and gradients are to stay out. An episode lasts 15 seconds and five episodes usually fit a plot. Results must be run on the platform and negative words added when needed. The last commit is from October 2026.
How to disable. Delete the .claude/skills/smy-seedance-storyboard folder from the project or from ~/.claude/skills/. Generated documents stay in the project folder.
FAQ
What does the skill return?
Five things: a script, a color palette, an asset list with image prompts, per-episode storyboards with Seedance 2.0 prompts and last-frame descriptions to link episodes.
How does the style avoid drifting into 3D?
A style block sits at the start of every prompt and two hard commands at the end demand pure 2D flat fills with no shadows or gradients. If the image still drifts, add negative words.
How many episodes and how long?
Each episode runs 15 seconds. Five episodes (75 seconds) fit a compact plot, and 10 to 20 fit a full story.
Can I switch sub-style?
Yes, name it: blue stone and ink picture book, watercolor, paper cut or Dunhuang mural. One sub-style per drama.
Does Midjourney work?
Yes, English style blocks for Midjourney are kept in the asset list. The main Chinese version targets Jimeng, Seedream and Doubao.
