What This Is
This is the data architecture behind complex AI image generation workflows - the system that turns "I want to generate a 20-scene story with consistent characters across different environments" from a nightmare into something manageable.
If you've ever tried generating more than 5 AI images with the same character in different settings, you know the pain: manual JSON files everywhere, copy-pasted prompts, no validation, and every change means editing 47 files. This architecture solves that.
What You'll Learn
- • Four-level hierarchy for organizing AI generation projects
- • Character library system for consistent appearances
- • Progressive reference chaining for visual continuity
- • Scene variation tracking (because one attempt is never enough)
- • Why Pydantic beats plain JSON for this workflow
Who This Is For
- • Developers building AI content generation pipelines
- • Anyone managing 10+ AI-generated scenes with consistency requirements
- • Teams tired of JSON file chaos and manual prompt management
- • Engineers who want type safety without abandoning JSON workflows
Real-World Context
This architecture emerged from generating the Turkish Tea Vendor series - a character that appears across 10+ completely different scenarios (Penrose stairs, Feudal Japanese castle, Neo-Tokyo 1999, Pakistani night market). Without this structure, maintaining consistency while tracking costs, variations, and metadata would be impossible.
Why not just use Higgsfield, Kling, etc?
Good question. These platforms charge you for their usage. Do you want to generate storylines and automate them fully for $x.xx or do you want to spend $xx.xx - $xxx.xx?
