How to Make an Indian Folktale Short with AI

Choose one turning point from a folktale, outline three beats, and write the narration in your audience’s language. Approve an illustration for each beat, then check that the pictures tell the story before you add captions and export.

Storyboard The Lion and the Mouse

Show the lion lifting its paw to let the mouse go, the lion caught under a net, and the mouse freeing it. Keep the lion and mouse recognizable across all three scenes. Ask for framing that makes the knot and the mouse’s action visible on a phone.

Write a fresh retelling

Start with the choice the characters face. Read the lines aloud and cut any explanation already visible in the pictures. Use your own wording and artwork you have permission to use.

Check the payoff on a phone

Watch the final 9:16 video with the sound off to check whether the release is clear. Turn sound back on and check that the final caption ends with the narration.
