Cooking show · made in Character App

Make a cooking show starring your Character, from kitchen chaos to anime food battles

A host who should not be allowed near a stove, a kitchen set that is always the same, and one dish per Episode that goes gloriously wrong. Or an anime food battle where the loser closes their stall.

Free: make your Character and its Story as picture-only Slideshows. Real video comes with a plan.

Rainy Day Bakery: Cat rolls
Rainy Day Bakery · Cat rolls. Example from our house series Rainy Day Bakery, a cozy anime bakery, not a cooking show Story. Made with H3 Turbo, the default Clip model in Character App.

How to make a cooking show with AI

Make your host as a Character from words, or yourself from a photo (17+), in the Pop 3D Art style, or Anime for an anime cooking series. Ask the AI Director for an Episode about one dish and it writes the Scenes in your kitchen World. Free, it is a picture-only Slideshow. With a plan, film the disasters as Clips.

The host is the show

Cooking shows are about who is cooking. Make the host once, with a face, an apron and a catchphrase, and every Episode is a new dish in the same kitchen. A rival chef, a judge or a very critical cat can be recurring Characters too.

Anime cooking and food battles

Anime has its own cooking genre: dramatic reveals, glowing dumplings, judges who weep. Pick the Anime Art style and write a food battle.

  • The battle

    Two cooks, one ingredient, a clock and a crowd.

  • The reveal

    The lid comes off. Film that moment as a Clip with a plan.

  • The stakes

    The loser closes their stall. The winner has to adopt the loser’s cat.

Questions, answered

Still curious? The guides go deeper.

Can I make an AI cooking show with my own host?

Yes. The host is a saved Character, so the same face runs every Episode in the same kitchen.

Can I make an anime cooking series?

Yes. Pick the Anime Art style and ask the Director for a food battle.

Are the recipes real?

Treat them as comedy. The Director writes a story about cooking, not a tested recipe.

Can I be the host?

Yes. Add your own clear photo (17+) and you become the host in any Art style.

What does it cost?

Free: your Characters and the Story as a picture-only Slideshow. With a plan, a narrated Slideshow is 40 Credits, a 5-second H3 Turbo Clip is 25, and a 5-Clip Episode (0:25) is 125, plus any Scene pictures the Story draws. Creator is $39.99 a month for 1,600 Credits.
