Screen Monsters
Screen Monsters is a cinematic IP created as a showcase for Uni-1, a unified intelligence model for film production design. Starting from a single 30-second pencil doodle, we built a complete pre-production pipeline: a cast of furry claymation characters, cinematic color palettes, title design and animated sequences.

The challenge was to move beyond isolated image generation and show how AI can support structured visual reasoning across a full film pre-production process. Every step, from sketch to final frame, had to stay consistent in style, character and mood, while keeping the spontaneity of the original idea.
We used Uni-1 as the core reasoning engine of the workflow. The doodle evolved into a full cast of tactile claymation characters with dramatic studio lighting, unified color palettes and custom title typography. Image-to-video animation and temporal sequence planning brought the characters to life, creating production-ready frames for filmmakers.
