# Anime and comic animation ads

Choose one original graphic language and hold it across the ad. Treat genre references as broad craft direction, never as permission to copy a protected character, costume, franchise, or exact artist style.

## Workflow

1. Resolve the product, audience, angle, proof, CTA, runtime, and platform.
2. Choose one visual system: cel-shaded anime, inked comic, manga screentone, graphic novel, or pop comic.
3. Design an original hero with locked silhouette, facial proportions, palette, outfit, line weight, and shading method.
4. Choose the narrative device: transformation, dramatic reveal, versus comparison, power-up mechanism, talking hero, or panel-by-panel explainer.
5. Storyboard strong key poses before generating motion.
6. Generate consistent start frames with the same character and product references.
7. Animate pose-to-pose with purposeful holds, impact frames, panel transitions, and restrained camera movement.
8. Add exact speech balloons, captions, and typography in editing.

## Visual rules

- define line weight, shadow count, palette, and texture once
- prioritize readable silhouettes and expressions over micro-detail
- use speed lines, halftone, impact frames, or panel borders only when they reinforce the beat
- preserve the supplied product geometry and label
- avoid protected characters, costumes, franchise symbols, and copied compositions

## Quality checks

- Does each beat have a strong key pose?
- Does the character remain original and consistent?
- Are graphic effects supporting the product story?
- Is exact text handled in post rather than entrusted to image generation?
