📘 Version History
v1.0 – March 27, 2025
• Initial Release – basic scene generation and rendering engine
🧭 STEP-BY-STEP WORKFLOW GUIDE
🔹 Step 1 – Get a Gemini API Key
• Go to: https://aistudio.google.com/apikey
• Log in with your Google account
• Click "Create API Key"
• Copy it into the purple GEMINI API KEY node in ComfyUI
🔹 Step 2 – Choose a Reference Image
• Upload a visual reference OR
• Set Use Reference Image = False to start from a text description
• (Optional) Enter a project name for easy folder organization
🔹 Step 3 – Enter a Story Prompt
• Be as detailed or brief as you like
• If you skipped the reference image, describe your character clearly
🔹 Step 4 – Select Mode + Audio
• Choose: Portrait or Landscape
• Toggle MMAudio ON if you want auto-generated sound
🔹 Step 5 – Click QUEUE
• Generation begins — each step takes ~32 seconds
• Increasing the number of steps improves quality (but takes longer)
🔹 Step 6 – Select Your Scenes
• You’ll see image batches (4 at a time)
• Pick your favorites and drag them into order (1–24)
• Hit Cancel + Retry if the results aren’t what you want
🔹 Step 7 – Generate Video & Stitching
• Images are rendered into scenes
• Selected scenes are stitched into a full video (with audio, if enabled)
🔹 Step 8 – Retrieve Your Final Video
• Check the output folder
• Look for the .mp4 file (with "audio" in the name if you chose MMAudio)
💡 Pro Tips:
• For best results: allow ~4.5 mins per scene on Ultra Pro
• Want higher detail? Increase steps from 8 → 16
• Imperfect outputs? Cancel & re-run! AI isn't flawless — but it is fast
