How to Make an AI Superhero Fight Scene: Thor vs Doom Fan Film

Turn one line of action into a Thor vs Doctor Doom fan film shot full of lightning: draw the start frame, direct it in plain words, write the motion and render it on Wan 3.0 in ShowMaker Studio's Scene Flow. Fan-made; not affiliated with Marvel.

Write the beat

What happens — no dialogue. @tag whoever and whatever is in frame.
1In Scene Flow, click into the ACTION box of a new beat, where you write what happens with no dialogue. Type @ to tag the characters and props in frame; here the hero is @god_of_war_black.
War Axe @war_axe
2As you type @, a picker lists your cast and props. Choose War Axe @war_axe so the axe's reference picture is sent with the shot.
What happens — no dialogue. @tag whoever and whatever is in frame.
3Finish the action in plain words: "@god_of_war_black swings @war_axe and rises on a plume of electricity collecting electrical energy from the environment above and below as he coils for a swing".
