\n 1.<\/span>\n <\/p>\n Open the Picsart Video Generator. That's your starting point for every cartoon video walkthrough below.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n 2.<\/span>\n <\/p>\n Choose your input type. Pick Text to Video if you're creating a cartoon scene from a blank slate. Pick Image to Video if you already have a character design, illustration, or still image you want to animate. Image-to-Video is the move when character consistency matters, and you want to lock in a specific look before the motion begins.\r\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n 3.<\/span>\n <\/p>\n Write your cartoon prompt. Describe the scene, the characters, the animation style, the camera angles, and the mood. Be specific about the cartoon aesthetic you want: 3D Pixar, anime, slapstick, stop-motion clay, cel-shaded, each reads very differently to the model. Name the style early in the prompt and keep character details clear and repeatable.\r\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n 4.<\/span>\n <\/p>\n Open Advanced Settings. Tap the settings panel to customize the generation options that matter most for cartoon work.\r\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n 5.<\/span>\n <\/p>\n Select Seedance 2.0 from the model dropdown. This is the pick for consistent characters, multi-shot storytelling, and native audio. If the dropdown shows other models, just switch to Seedance 2.0 for this run.\r\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n 6.<\/span>\n <\/p>\n Set the duration to 15s. Drag the slider to the maximum length. Longer clips give the model room for setup, action, and payoff, which is where cartoon storytelling actually happens. Shorter clips work for single gags or loops, but 15 seconds is the sweet spot for a full scene.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n 7.<\/span>\n <\/p>\n Choose your aspect ratio. Go 16:9 Landscape for cinematic scenes, multi-shot sequences, and YouTube-style content. Go 9:16 Portrait for Reels, TikTok, Shorts, and anything vertical. Pick before you generate, since reframing after the fact can cost you composition.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n 8.<\/span>\n <\/p>\n Toggle on Enhance prompt. This lets the model expand and polish your prompt for better results, useful if your draft is short or loose. If your prompt is already detailed and locked, you can leave it off.\r\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n 9.<\/span>\n <\/p>\n Toggle on Generate audio. This adds sound effects, ambient audio, and music that match the scene. Cartoon videos lean heavily on audio for comedic timing and emotion, so leaving this on is usually the right call.\r\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n 10.<\/span>\n <\/p>\n Hit Generate. \r\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n\n
