Summary
Youri van Hofwegen walks through a four-step pipeline for generating cinematic multi-angle shots of a visually consistent AI character using Nano Banana Pro and OpenArt. The challenge addressed is one of the hardest problems in AI filmmaking: keeping a character recognizable and coherent across different camera angles, lighting conditions, and scenes.
The workflow begins in OpenArt’s image generator using Nano Banana Pro — which received a major update improving image quality up to 4K, editing accuracy, text rendering, and consistency — to create a base character (a female assassin in a John Wick aesthetic). That image is then loaded into OpenArt’s newly released camera angle control tool, where the character is rotated in 15-degree increments from -90 to +90 degrees, supplemented by a close-up and a wide-angle shot. These rotation images are uploaded to train a custom character model inside OpenArt, giving the system a comprehensive understanding of the character’s appearance from all sides.
With the trained model active, scene-specific images are generated using natural language descriptions of body position rather than shot-type keywords — a key tip, as Nano Banana interprets physical descriptions more reliably than labels like ‘over-the-shoulder shot.’ Final images are animated using VO3 at 1080p. The result is a short AI film with consistent character appearance across multiple angles and smooth motion, achieved entirely within OpenArt and without traditional production tools.
