Start from a period or event
Turn an event, your timeline or a script into a history video
Make a history explainer video from a topic, your timeline or a script. Atlabs keeps the same historical figures, places and maps in every scene and every lesson, so learners can follow one person or one city through a whole period of time.
Grobe Idee
A history question in a line
Write the question, the period and the level. The AI writes a history explainer script, splits it into scenes with the people and places involved and builds the video.
Why did the Roman Empire split in two? For Year 8, 4 minutes, told through one soldier on the Danube frontier.

Your timeline or key events and dates

AD 284: Diocletian splits rule. 330: Constantinople founded. 395: final split. 476: the West falls. East lasts.

The same faces through time
Keep the same historical figures, places and maps in every history explainer video
History makes sense when you can follow people through it. Atlabs locks your historical figures, the cities and buildings they live in and the style of your maps, so learners recognise the same emperor, soldier or city in every lesson of the period.
Konsistenz der Charaktere
Create a character once and Atlabs keeps the same face, outfit, colours and style in every scene and every video after it. A historical figure stays recognisable from one lesson to the next.

Konsistenz von Objekten und Requisiten
Maps, flags, coins, weapons and documents look the same in every scene, so learners can follow borders and symbols as they change through the period.
