This workflow turns a plain-language scene description into an 8‑panel storyboard and then animates that plan with Seedance 2.0. Inside the Previs Storyboard Generator group, your text is processed through LLM/image nodes (GeminiNode and OpenAIGPTImageNodeV2), with StringConcatenate assembling structured per‑panel prompts. The generated frames are arranged into a single contact sheet with ImageStitch, previewed via PreviewAny, and saved by SaveImage. This gives you a fast visual blueprint—shot order, camera angles, and composition—before you ever render a video.
When you’re happy with the board, switch to the Seedance Video group. There, ByteDance2ReferenceNode uses the storyboard image (selected through the Image input) as a visual guide to drive motion and style while generating the clip. You can monitor progress with PreviewAny and export the final result with SaveVideo. The workflow relies on ComfyUI’s group bypass toggles so you can iterate on the storyboard first, then hand it off cleanly to Seedance 2.0 for animation—keeping creative control through every step.
API
Use this workflow from code
Every Comfy workflow is a JSON graph. The payload below is this workflow, exactly as ComfyUI runs it — fetch it from the URL, keep it in version control, or load it in ComfyUI and run it node by node.
Run it from TypeScript or Python with the Comfy SDK. The same code targets Comfy Cloud or a ComfyUI you host yourself — only the base URL changes.
// Install (beta)
npm i @comfyorg/sdk
// Run this workflow (TypeScript)
import { Comfy } from "@comfyorg/sdk";
const client = new Comfy({ apiKey: "comfyui-..." });
const wf = await client.workflows.fromFile("workflow_api.json");
const job = await client.run(wf);
await job.getOutputs("<output-node-id>")[0].toFile("output.png");The SDK takes a workflow in API format: open this workflow in ComfyUI and use File → Export Workflow (API).
Comfy Cloud API access requires a plan with an API key.
