Scoring

A simple rubric

One overall human score, guided by four equally weighted questions. The percentages are not model-generated.

  1. 01

    Prompt adherence

    Does the video deliver the requested actions, sequence, and historical details?

  2. 02

    Visual craft

    Are the composition, cel-anime aesthetic, lighting, and material details convincing?

  3. 03

    Motion and continuity

    Do characters, props, geography, and transitions remain readable and stable?

  4. 04

    Story and sound

    Does the eight-second arc communicate clearly, with audio that supports the scene?

Shared brief

The Odyssey: Sirens

Create an eight-second, 16:9, hand-drawn 2D cel-anime retelling of Odysseus and the Sirens in exactly four connected shots. Use historically grounded Late Bronze Age Aegean materials, precise character action, cinematic camera direction, and native sound.
