# How to Make Your First Series in Viddy GO From one sentence to a published series on RUN — the complete walkthrough. Companion to the video tutorial. You don't need a crew, a budget, or any editing skill. You need an idea. By RUN.team · June 26, 2026 ![How to Make Your First Series in Viddy GO](https://res.cloudinary.com/venusseriesai/image/upload/v1782507579/upload_mcdxls.png) ## **The 60-second version** 1. Open [**Viddy GO**](https://w.run/run.team/viddygo) → **New Project** 2. Type your story idea in a sentence 3. Viddy GO auto-builds the show — title, characters, locations 4. Review & tweak (by chat or by hand), pick a **style** 5. **Generate art** → characters, select voices (if you want to change the auto-assigned ones), locations 6. **Generate storyboards** → see the whole episode as panels 7. **Generate videos** → add a soundtrack 8. **Publish** → it goes live on[ ](http://run.tv)[RUN.tv](http://RUN.tv) That's the start of a series in under 1 hour. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3Iy09zy6TY Now the details. --- ## **Step 1 — [Start a project](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3Iy09zy6TY&t=26s)** ![Screenshot_2026-06-26_at_12.08.37_PM.png](https://res.cloudinary.com/venusseriesai/image/upload/v1782508566/upload_sn8q6a.png) Open [**Viddy GO**](https://w.run/run.team/viddygo). Click **New Project**. You can **import an existing world** or a **document** describing your characters/world (even images) — or just **start from scratch**. Most first-timers start from scratch. ## **Step 2 —** [Craft your prompt](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3Iy09zy6TY&t=73s) ![Screenshot_2026-06-26_at_12.09.52_PM.png](https://res.cloudinary.com/venusseriesai/image/upload/v1782508651/upload_wswmad.png) Describe your story in a sentence or two. Be playful — specificity is what makes it sing. *Example from the walkthrough:* “A couple of explorers journey to the Pacific Northwest forest ends up with them falling in love with Bigfoot, and fighting for his attention” Click **Continue**. Viddy GO sets up the characters, world, and everything the video needs. ## **Step 3 — [Review the Show Overview](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3Iy09zy6TY&t=116s)** ![Screenshot_2026-06-26_at_12.10.55_PM.png](https://res.cloudinary.com/venusseriesai/image/upload/v1782509107/upload_d7msfq.png) Viddy GO generates a full show: a **title** (it named the example *“Love in the Pines”*), a **genre**, a **synopsis**, a **cast** (protagonist, supporter, love interest, antagonist), and **locations**. Edit two ways: - **By chat:** type what you want changed (“make the protagonists one woman and one man”) → send → apply. - **By hand:** rename characters, add a character, add or edit locations. ## **Step 4 —** [Pick a style](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3Iy09zy6TY&t=257s) ![Screenshot_2026-06-26_at_12.11.28_PM.png](https://res.cloudinary.com/venusseriesai/image/upload/v1782509153/upload_hmlw4n.png) Choose your visual style — anthropomorphic, fantasy/sci-fi, anime, **stylized/painterly**, or upload your own style reference! ## **Step 5 —** [Check the episode summary](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3Iy09zy6TY&t=282s) ![Screenshot_2026-06-26_at_12.11.56_PM.png](https://res.cloudinary.com/venusseriesai/image/upload/v1782509199/upload_edieae.png) Viddy GO shows the episode shape: e.g., **6 shots × 15s = \~90 seconds**, with the story beats called out — **hook → setup → rising action → midpoint escalation → cliffhanger.** (This is exactly the structure that makes short dramas land.) Edit by chat if you want; apply changes. ## Step 6 — [Generate the art](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3Iy09zy6TY&t=358s) ![Screenshot_2026-06-26_at_12.12.40_PM.png](https://res.cloudinary.com/venusseriesai/image/upload/v1782509355/upload_amqy7c.png) ![Screenshot_2026-06-26_at_12.18.17_PM.png](https://res.cloudinary.com/venusseriesai/image/upload/v1782509379/upload_ehs94p.png) Your asset library starts empty. Click **Generate missing art** and watch the generation log: - **Characters** appear — each with an auto-assigned **voice** you can test and swap for something that fits (“I need something deeper”). - **Refine any character** by editing its prompt (wardrobe, look, vibe) and regenerating until it's right. - **Locations:** generate all the missing ones. - **Props (optional):** add things your story needs (e.g., an off-road vehicle). ## Step 7 — [The style image](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3Iy09zy6TY&t=527s) ![Screenshot_2026-06-26_at_12.19.00_PM.png](https://res.cloudinary.com/venusseriesai/image/upload/v1782509437/upload_e7xmlo.png) Viddy GO creates a **main style image**. Every storyboard panel is generated against it to keep a consistent look. It doesn't appear in the final video, so it doesn't need to be perfect — but you *can* upload your own or regenerate it. ## Step 8 — [Scenes & storyboards](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3Iy09zy6TY&t=563s) ![Screenshot_2026-06-26_at_12.19.20_PM.png](https://res.cloudinary.com/venusseriesai/image/upload/v1782509486/upload_phxnsx.png) Viddy GO writes a **per-scene shot list** (the script), then you **generate the storyboard panels** — do them all at once to see the whole episode laid out. - The system **flags panels** for review (e.g., a character-consistency mismatch). You decide whether to **regenerate** or ignore — a safety net that catches things you'd miss. - **Edit any panel:** change references, add/remove characters, or edit the panel prompt to name specific elements (“the vehicle is seen on the road at a distance”). ## Step 9 — [Generate the videos](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3Iy09zy6TY&t=804s) ![Screenshot_2026-06-26_at_12.19.40_PM.png](https://res.cloudinary.com/venusseriesai/image/upload/v1782509801/upload_xpt3ls.png) Viddy GO writes **motion prompts** (how characters move/react) from the storyboards, plus the **dialogue audio**. Hit **Generate all**. **Pro move from the walkthrough:** get a *rough draft of the whole episode start-to-finish first* — feel the timing and tone — *then* go back and fix specific shots. Regenerate any shot with edits (“maintain character scale; improve the voice acting”) via advanced prompting or “fine-tune with AI.” ## Step 10 — [Soundtrack](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3Iy09zy6TY&t=941s) ![Screenshot_2026-06-26_at_12.20.04_PM.png](https://res.cloudinary.com/venusseriesai/image/upload/v1782509824/upload_qv7hwp.png) Generate background music from a description (for example: “cinematic and quirky, with Pacific Northwest forest sounds”). It scores the story automatically; you can also play the entire rough cut and evaluate whether the background music should be louder or quieter. ## Step 11 — [Compile, world & cover](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3Iy09zy6TY&t=971s) ![Screenshot_2026-06-26_at_12.20.40_PM.png](https://res.cloudinary.com/venusseriesai/image/upload/v1782509865/upload_rd3ehs.png) Viddy GO **compiles the shots into one episode** (thumbnails auto-generated). Generate a **cover image**. Your content lives in a **“world”** on RUN — a world can hold **video, games, and interactive-fiction stories** together. ## Step 12 — [(Optional) download & edit](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3Iy09zy6TY&t=996s) If you want, **download the video, edit externally** (speed up, slow down, crop), and re-upload. Totally optional — personal preference. ## Step 13 — [Publish → live on RUN.tv](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3Iy09zy6TY&t=1025s) ![Screenshot_2026-06-26_at_12.06.19_PM.png](https://res.cloudinary.com/venusseriesai/image/upload/v1782509944/upload_n1ydr7.png) Click **Publish**. and it is immediately **live!**. Head to[ ](http://run.tv)[**RUN.tv**](http://RUN.tv), search for your title, view it, and share it with your friends.
