LocalMiniDrama

LocalMiniDrama helps creators make AI short dramas and comic-style videos, from a story outline through finished episodes. It keeps project storage on your machine, while image and video generation uses external AI services.

• Scripts and reusable assets: Generate and edit multi-episode scripts, extract characters, scenes and props, and keep their images in a shared asset library.
• Storyboard control: Create shots with dialogue, framing and camera movement, edit generation prompts, and use multiple reference images or first and last frames to guide clips.
• Visual workflows: Work in a detailed list or a connected canvas, generate selected groups of shots, and automate production through video assembly while skipping existing content.
• Conversational assistant: Ask an assistant to work on the current drama's script, characters, scenes, storyboards and images, with confirmation before deletion.
• Project exchange: Import and export projects as ZIP files, export storyboard sheets as HTML, and produce landscape, portrait or square videos.

The app runs locally as a Windows desktop application or through a browser with a local Node.js backend. It's free and open source under the MIT license. Text generation supports local Ollama models and OpenAI-compatible APIs; image and video integrations include DashScope, Volcengine Seedance, Kling, Google Imagen and Veo, and Vidu. External generation requires internet access and your own API credentials, and sends the inputs needed for those requests to the selected provider.
