Slate
Slate — Local previs workbench for AI short films. One storyboard.json drives the whole pipeline: film analysis → script → shots → assets → acting → 2D/3D gray-model previs → reference pack for image-to-video.

Could you build this?
Partial A local workbench UI parsing storyboards to coordinate AI prompts is vibe-codeable, but integrating automated 2D/3D gray-model previs generation alongside full pipeline asset synthesis requires non-trivial 3D graphics and local model pipeline orchestration.
What it would actually take: The architecture comprises a Next.js/Electron UI, Python orchestration backend, Blender headless scripting (or Three.js/WebGPU renderer), and local diffusion/multimodal pipelines (ComfyUI / Diffusers). The difficult part is the automated translation of JSON storyboard descriptors into coherent 3D scene blocking, camera frustums, and graybox spatial reference packs. This requires expertise in technical directing, 3D graphics automation, and generative AI conditioning techniques (ControlNet/IP-Adapter).
