Project Overview and Vision

In today's era of rapid development of generative AI technology, we have witnessed technological breakthroughs in text-to-image and image-to-video generation. However, converting complete text content (such as books) into an interactive, explorable 3D movie experience remains a challenging task. The 'movie' project developed by the Hack-a-tons team is an important step in this direction.

This project builds an automated text-to-3D movie pipeline, using large language models (LLMs) and generative AI technologies to convert book content into explorable movie scenes. The system handles the complete process from 3D mesh generation (GLB format), scene composition to timeline logic, and finally renders a non-interactive machinima environment that can be seamlessly played in a browser.

Simplified Process for Consumers

The project's default public interface is the gallery page, while the creation process (create) is a clean iPhone-friendly interface:

  1. The user enters a movie prompt
  2. The server checks Prampta permissions (detects registered themes)
  3. Obtains a preview of the movie/3D scene that can be played in the browser

This design allows ordinary users without any technical background to generate their own 3D movie scenes simply by entering a text description.

Professional-Grade Production Workspace

For professional users who need more control, the system provides a detailed production workspace (Pro page). The current version supports logged-in users to watch the phased pipeline automatically create after entering a prompt:

  • Scene and Shot Splitting: Decompose the story into multiple scenes
  • Scene/Location Bible: Establish detailed scene setting documents
  • Object/Prop Bible: Record all props needed in the scene
  • Resident Character Bible: Establish character profiles and appearance settings
  • Reference Image Prompts: Prepare references for 3D asset generation
  • GLB-Oriented 3D Model List: Model specifications including real-world dimensions
  • Animation Tracks: Define movement trajectories of characters and objects
  • Render Timeline and Assembly List: Final composition guidelines

The pipeline runs continuously in the background, while the Web UI displays progress in real-time. Users can cancel or re-run the project, but reviews do not block the generation process.

Backend API and Data Management

The system builds project APIs based on FastAPI and uses JSON files to manage project status, stored in the directory specified by MOVIE_DATA_DIR. This design choice provides:

  • A deterministic text-to-production package pipeline
  • Simple and reliable state persistence
  • Easy debugging and version control

Section 07

Frontend Interface Design

The project adopts a modern responsive design:

  • Dark Theme: Professional iPhone-first creation/gallery UI
  • Detailed Production Studio: Professional-grade control interface located on the Pro page
  • Default Public Gallery: Displays community-generated works
  • Tabbed Navigation: Four main views: Gallery, Create, History, Pro, each with an independent URL
  • Adaptive Layout: Bottom tab bar for vertical screens, right-side tab bar for horizontal screens

Authentication and Permissions

The system integrates Google/Apple Firebase login to protect creator views:

  • Apple login is displayed prior to Google login
  • After logging in, users can view history records and project ownership
  • Supports private/public switching and deletion functions
