Turn a story into a vertical 9:16 reel with AI. Describe what you want, and ComicInk storyboards it into scenes, casts a consistent crew, and renders a short-form film you can post anywhere. Start with 100 free credits, no card.
Make a reel freeAn AI reel maker turns a written idea into a short, vertical video without filming, animating or editing it by hand. With ComicInk you type a prompt — a scene, a story beat, a punchline — and the AI does the work a small production crew would: it writes the script, breaks it into scenes, designs the characters, and renders each shot as a moving clip. The result is a 9:16 reel built for the small screen, ready to drop into Reels, Shorts or TikTok.
Unlike a generic text-to-video tool that forgets what it drew a second ago, ComicInk keeps one consistent cast across the whole reel. The same character keeps the same face and outfit from the first frame to the last, so your reel reads like a real story instead of a slideshow of unrelated clips. And because ComicInk is a full comic and video studio, the characters you build for a reel can star in a comic too — and your comics can become films.
Three steps from a sentence to a finished vertical reel — the AI handles the directing in between.
Type the story you want to tell in plain language. Pick an art style and a vibe — the AI takes it from there.
ComicInk writes the script and storyboards it into scenes, casting a consistent crew so every shot matches.
Each scene renders as a vertical clip and stitches into one reel, ready to download and post.
Every reel is rendered vertical — 9:16, the full-height format that owns the feed on Reels, Shorts and TikTok. There is no awkward cropping or letterboxing; the AI composes each shot for portrait from the start, so faces and action sit where the eye expects them on a phone.
You choose from 12 cinematic styles — 3D animation, anime, manga, cartoon, realistic, noir, watercolor, vintage, claymation, pixel art and cyberpunk. Lock in one style and the whole reel stays visually coherent. When the reel is finished, you download a standard MP4 you can post anywhere.
The hardest part of AI video is consistency. ComicInk solves it the same way it keeps a comic series on-model: one locked cast, reused shot after shot.
Characters keep the same face, outfit and proportions across every scene of the reel.
Characters you have already built in a ComicInk comic can star in the reel — no re-casting.
Build a multi-scene film where the story carries and the cast stays recognizable scene to scene.
Video renders are billed per second of footage. A 10-second scene at 720p is roughly 1,500 credits, and the studio shows the exact credit estimate before you render — so you always know the price before you spend a credit. Every new account starts with 100 free credits and its first two comic renders free, no card required. ComicInk Plus is $19.99 a month for 4,500 credits, enough for about three 10-second scenes, and is the plan that suits video. ComicInk Basic is $9.99 a month for 1,500 credits — about one 10-second scene — so it suits comics better. You can top up with a credit pack any time. Credits never expire.

The reel maker is built for vertical 9:16 short-form video — the format that fills the screen on Reels, Shorts and TikTok. Each reel is rendered as a standard MP4 you can download and post anywhere. You assemble several scenes into one continuous reel right in the editor.
Yes. ComicInk holds a consistent cast across every scene, so the same character keeps the same face, outfit and style from the opening shot to the final frame. If you have already designed characters in a ComicInk comic, the reel maker reuses them — no re-casting, no drift between scenes.
You describe the story in a prompt, the AI breaks it into scenes, and each scene renders in the background while you keep editing. A short multi-scene reel is typically ready in a few minutes rather than the hours a manual edit would take.
There are 12 cinematic styles to choose from — 3D animation, anime, manga, cartoon, realistic, noir, watercolor, vintage, claymation, pixel art and cyberpunk. Pick one style and every scene in the reel stays visually consistent.
No. The reel maker does the directing for you — it storyboards your prompt into scenes, renders each one, and lays them out in order. You can re-order scenes, tweak the script and add captions in the editor, but you never touch a timeline full of keyframes.
