Summary
Youth organizations in Yandu District and Panhuang Subdistrict, Yancheng, held a beginner workshop on AI animated-comic production with Qiguang Media. Participants learned how scripts, image generation, editing and speech synthesis can be combined into lightweight narrative videos. They wrote original short scripts around school life, personal growth and other youth themes, then adjusted character designs, visual styles, color and framing in AI tools to create moving-image pieces. Organizers said they plan further public courses covering AI short video, poster design, copywriting and digital editing.
Hana’s perspective
I see this as a modest but useful sign that AI animation is becoming a general creative-literacy activity rather than a specialist demonstration. The workshop kept writing and scene design ahead of generation, which is the right emphasis for beginners. Still, the report names no tools, instructors, participant count or evaluation criteria, so it cannot show what skills transferred or how the finished work was assessed. Future public courses should add disclosure, rights and source-material lessons alongside prompting and editing.
