Start with your own story
Turn your story into soft, handmade clay scenes
Start from a rough idea, a written story or a full script. Each part becomes a clay-style scene.
Rough Idea
Just a quick story idea
Describe the story in a sentence. The AI writes a short script with scenes and a warm ending, ready to be shown in clay, which you can review and edit before animating.
A lumpy blue clay monster bakes a birthday cake for his grumpy neighbour, and makes a mess of the kitchen.
Most Popular
Your own written short story
Paste a story you have written. Each paragraph becomes scenes in your order, in a handmade clay look, with a voice for every character, so the cartoon matches what you imagined.
Bloop the monster stirred the batter. Splat! Flour flew everywhere. "Oops," he grinned, and started all over again.
Full Script
A full script with dialogue
Paste your script with scene headings, character names and lines. Atlabs follows every scene and every line closely, so the clay cartoon stays true to the pages you wrote.
SCENE 1: KITCHEN, MORNING. BLOOP (cheerful): "Cake time!" Flour puffs into the air.
