Personal Workflow

LPA Creative Studio

AI Storyboarding Workflow

My custom visual storytelling workflow built on Layered Prompt Architecture. Manage projects, create characters, generate scenes, and produce videos—all in one integrated interface.

What is LPA Creative Studio?

LPA Creative Studio is my personal visual storytelling workflow that implements the complete Layered Prompt Architecture. It's a custom-built editing environment for creating AI-driven narrative sequences with complete control over every layer of the generation process.

Project Management

Organize stories, characters, and scenes with full version control

Character System

Isolated character references with chain continuity

7-Layer LPA Editor

Visual editing for identity, spatial, environment, lighting, color, camera, quality

Batch Generation

Generate all scenes with resume capability and cost tracking

Built while creating The KOZU Universe, the studio evolved from personal workflow experiments into a comprehensive editing interface that handles everything from scene design to video generation.

Feature Walkthrough

Project & Story Management

Create and organize multiple stories within projects. Track generation progress, costs, and manage story metadata all in one place.

Story details with scene overview

Visual scene grid with thumbnails

Character Isolation System

Define characters once, reuse across stories. Upload reference images, set appearance attributes, and maintain visual consistency automatically.

7-Layer LPA Scene Editor

Visual interface for editing all 7 LPA layers. Each layer has dedicated fields, AI suggestions, and real-time validation.

Scene editor: Identity, Spatial, Environment layers

Scene editor: Lighting, Color, Camera, Quality layers

Batch Generation & Cost Tracking

Generate entire storyboards with scene selection, cost estimation, and resume capability. Real-time progress tracking and error handling.

Generation interface with scene selection and cost preview

Generated scenes with metadata and variation options

Storyboard to Video

Transform storyboards into video sequences. Select frames, choose from 4 video models, configure settings, and generate professional video content.

Real Example: The Crystal Heist

19 scenes generated with full LPA architecture

The Crystal Heist showcases what the workflow can do: a time-traveling ninja heist story with consistent character appearance across 19 scenes, seamless scene-to-scene continuity, and complete cost tracking throughout the generation process.

Production Stats

• 19 scenes @ $0.011/image = $0.21 total generation cost
• Character isolation system maintains KOZU's appearance across all scenes
• Scene-to-scene reference chain ensures visual continuity
• Full LPA metadata preserved for each generation

Key Features

Character Isolation System

Maintain consistent character appearance across all scenes

The Character Isolation System separates character identity from scene context, allowing you to reuse characters across different stories while maintaining visual consistency.

Upload reference images to define character appearance
Characters become reusable assets across projects
Layer 1 (Identity) automatically populated from character data
Chain references preserve character state across scenes

Visual LPA Editor

Edit all 7 layers with live preview and AI assistance

The visual editor provides structured access to all 7 LPA layers with intelligent defaults, AI-powered suggestions, and real-time validation.

Layer 1: Identity

Character appearance & trigger words

Layer 2: Spatial

Positioning & composition

Layer 3: Environment

Setting & architecture

Layer 4: Lighting

Light sources & mood

Layer 5: Color

Palette & grading

Layer 6: Camera

Lens & depth of field

Layer 7: Quality

Technical quality tags & anti-AI markers

Intelligent Batch Generation

Resume-capable workflows with cost estimation

Generate entire storyboards with intelligent scene selection, real-time cost calculation, and the ability to resume interrupted workflows.

Select which scenes to generate (all, specific scenes, or ranges)
Preview total cost before starting generation
Resume capability saves progress if interrupted
Real-time progress tracking with ETA estimates
Error handling preserves successful generations

Cost Transparency

Every generation shows exact API costs and tracks total project spend.
