Executive Summary

AutoAI image quality is stabilising: Sluglines have solved background consistency for Drama/Romance; Fantasy adoption is lagging because most work is re-edits.
Character-LoRA tests deliver rock-solid consistency for D/R and Werewolf shows (cinematic style), though anime still needs work.
Opening-frame “Hooks” experiment: AutoAI now heightens drama by exaggerating the first four frames around a chosen theme (action, abuse, seduction); early results look punchier, next step is to verify 15-sec engagement and tighten NSFW filters.
4o Pro constraints: Fantastic one-off image quality, but batching, style drift after ~10 frames, and frequent moderation blocks limit throughput.
What’s next: Evaluate Kling 2 and Jimeng AI, refine slugline format training, and finish hiring (17 new CDs → 3 joined / 12 incoming; 67 ACDs → 18 joined / 40 incoming, 11 still open) to scale production.

AutoAI Improvements - Progress & update

A. Background consistency

Sluglines:
Adoption among D/R writing teams: Now at 90-100%

Adoption among Fantasy writing teams: TBD
1 Campus King script has included slug lines
Pushback from the writers is that they aren’t writing new scripts - most of the assets in the last week have been reworks, which are produced manually

Slugline Assets: | |

B. Character consistency

Character LORA testing assets:

All our tests were done using Flux Dev - Cinematic/ Anime.

C. Creating better promos

Asset:
What? Auto AI’s default outputs felt too “cold,” so we trained it to punch up the first four promo frames: isolate the most dramatic beat, pick a theme (action, abuse, seduction), and deliberately generate bizarre, heightened visuals.
Next step:
Testing whether this boosts 15-second engagement + maintaining stronger NSFW checks.

D. 4o Pro Testing

Asset: (Werewolf show test) |

Issues we’re facing with 4o Pro generation:
No Image Batching: After the first 5 images, batch generation stops. Every image needs a manual prompt, killing efficiency
Style Inconsistency: Style holds for 5–7 images, then breaks. Images often turn out too dark/dim for Meta use
Image Quality Drop: Sharp decline in visual quality and consistency after 10 images
Content Policy Blocks: Frequent content blocks faced almost for every second image esp. for fight/blood scenes

E. New Tools to be tested

Testing Kling2 + the new tool recommended by the Chinese team (Jimeng AI)
