Make a mythology series: gods, monsters and myths retold
Zeus with the same beard in every myth. A ferryman with opinions. Medusa telling her side. Retell the old stories with the same Characters each time, as narrated Slideshows or filmed Episodes.
Free: make your Character and its Story as picture-only Slideshows. Real video comes with a plan.
How to make a mythology series with AI
Make each god or monster once as a Character, in the Painted Art style or any other. Ask the AI Director to retell a myth, or your twist on it, and it writes the Scenes. Free, it is a picture-only Slideshow. With a plan, add narration and music for 40 Credits or film the big moments as Clips.

Sample Clips
Real Clips from fictional sample series. Same Cast from shot to shot.
The Lantern Keeper There you are
Example from our house series The Lantern Keeper, not a mythology Story. Made with H3 Turbo, the default Clip model in Character App.
One pantheon, every myth
Channels that retell myths usually redraw the gods every time, so Zeus looks different in each video. Here every god is a saved Character with a face that stays, and a World holds the places and what has happened so far. Myth two can remember myth one.
The narrated Slideshow suits myths
Myths were told out loud before they were written down. A narrated Slideshow is the same idea: up to 5 slides, a narrator and music, 40 Credits with a plan on the web. Film the moments that need motion, like the ship, the storm or the snake hair, as Clips.
Retellings, not scholarship
These are creative retellings. The Director writes your version, twists included, so check facts elsewhere if you are teaching. Stick to public-domain mythologies such as Greek, Norse, Egyptian or Celtic, and invent freely around them.
Tell it from the monster
Medusa, the Minotaur and the ferryman all have a side nobody asked for.
Make it a workplace
The hall of the gods as an office, the trickster as the coworker who reorganises the fridge.
Keep it epic
Play it straight: one hero, one impossible task, one god who wants it to fail.
What you get, in counts
A mythology series is a pantheon you make once and reuse in every Story. Every price is on the button before you press it.

Questions, answered
Still curious? The guides go deeper.
Is it real video or a slideshow?
Both, depending on your plan. Free, you make picture-only Slideshows. With a plan, a narrated Slideshow is 40 Credits and real Clips are filmed from your Characters.
Are the myths accurate?
They are retellings. The Director writes the version you ask for, so treat them as stories, not a textbook.
Which mythologies can I use?
Public-domain ones such as Greek, Norse, Egyptian or Celtic myths. Invent your own gods too.
Can the same Zeus appear in every myth?
Yes. Each god is a saved Character, so the face and robes stay the same from Story to Story.
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.
