How to Make an AI Series: Step-by-Step Guide
Updated: July 23, 2026 · Depth Studio
Because series are multi-episode and long-running, the biggest challenges are consistency and coordination. AI speeds up pre-production; Depth Studio keeps characters, locations and style stable across every episode.
The 7 steps to make an AI series
Series concept and episode structure
Clarify the world, the main characters, the tone and the episode structure. Depth Studio analyses the script/brief and builds the production skeleton.
Episode script and shot plan
For each episode, a script, scenes and shots are created, with camera angle, movement and duration.
Character and location consistency
A reference record is created for every character and location; approved faces, wardrobe and locations are reused throughout the episodes.
AI storyboard and starting frames
AI produces the storyboard and starting frames for each shot; the team develops them.
Turn frames into video
Frames are animated with the video models; the resulting videos are stored under the relevant shot.
Team workflow and approval
The team comments and updates status; a separate review session is opened for the broadcaster/client.
Episode delivery
Approved shots are assembled, the episode is delivered and the project can be archived.
Why is consistency the most critical topic in a series?
In a series, a character appears in dozens of scenes and episodes. Their face, wardrobe and locations must be identical every time. In Depth Studio, a separate reference record is kept for every character and location; approved images are reused in later generations — so the team works from the same sources and continuity is preserved across episodes.
Frequently asked questions
Does AI produce the entire series on its own?
No. Depth Studio sets up the first structure and keeps the team organised; creative decisions and final quality stay with your team.
Do characters stay consistent across episodes?
Yes, thanks to reference records, faces and wardrobe are reused in later episodes.
Can I manage a multi-episode project in one place?
Yes. The project is split into scenes/shots/tasks and assigned to the team; progress is tracked from one place.
