Advanced AI Ad Workflow — How Do You Maintain Character Consistency, Scene Cohesion & Narrative Quality?
I’m building 30–60 sec AI-generated brand ads and struggling with workflow robustness. My current stack: • Concept + script: ChatGPT (Ive heard Claude is better or any reasoning model with higher benchmark scores) • Image generation: Midjourney / Nano Banana Pro (personally speaking, I prefer NBP over MJ as it is easy to use) • Upscaling: Topaz Gigapixel • Video generation: Google Flow • Voice: ElevenLabs • SFX: Pixabay • Edit: CapCut I recently moved to Higgsfield. Problems I’m Facing 1. Concept Quality • ChatGPT gives generic, nonsense, or unusable ideas. • Stories feel disconnected and not emotionally grounded in a brand strategy. 2. Script Issues • Weak narrative arc. • No cinematic pacing. • No shot logic. 3. Image Prompting • Prompts are basic. • No character consistency. • No lighting continuity. • Every frame feels like a different film. I personally feel there should be a template or easy method to prompt with the structures mentioned in this course which are amazing, manual prompting is too tedious. 4. Video Generation • Camera angles glitch. • Logos distort. • Motion is inconsistent. • Scenes don’t flow smoothly. 5. Overall • No seamless transitions. • No visual identity consistency. • Hard to maintain cinematic coherence across 30 seconds. My Goal To build a robust, repeatable AI ad production system that ensures: • Character consistency • Lighting continuity • Brand alignment • Cinematic flow • Clean logo rendering • Smooth 30–60 sec storytelling What I’m Looking For 1. Your full AI ad workflow (step-by-step). 2. How you handle character & scene consistency. 3. Prompt architecture (do you use seed locking? reference sheets?). 4. How you structure storytelling before generating visuals. 5. Any better tools for: • Scene consistency • Logo protection • Video smoothness 6. Do you design a shot list first before prompting? Would love to see structured workflows or production pipelines from people actually shipping high-quality AI ads.
