are we at the point where sora can generate a full 20min anime episode?
nah def not yet imo. i mean sora's crazy good for short clips, really impressive stuff. but a full 20min ANIME episode? that's a whole other ball game.
think about it:
* consistency: keeping character models, art style, and even lighting consistent for that long, through different scenes and angles, is super hard.
* storytelling: sora is good at generating visuals, not writing a coherent, engaging plot with character development and pacing for 20 mins. that's where human writers and directors come in.
* specific anime look: getting that exact anime aesthetic, like dynamic camera work, specific expressions, and fluid action, would be tough to maintain.
* audio: an episode needs voice acting, sound effects, music... sora doesn't do all that yet.
we're getting there for sure, the tech is moving fast. but for a full, watchable anime episode from start to finish? i think we're still a ways off. maybe short scenes for an episode, but not the whole thing.
