How to make an AI corporate training video as a short drama
Brief for AI Create: A training drama for retail staff: a customer wants to return a broken kettle without a receipt; version one goes badly, version two follows the policy kindly; two minutes, three characters.
The format that works
| Part | Length | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| The situation | 20–30 s | A real moment staff will recognise |
| The wrong way | 30–45 s | A plausible mistake, not a cartoon villain |
| The consequence | 10–20 s | A face, a lost customer, a risk |
| The right way | 30–45 s | The same moment, done well |
| The one line | 5–10 s | A narrator states the rule |
A cast staff will recognise
Keep the same three or four characters across the series: the new hire, the experienced colleague, the manager, the customer. Recurring faces make it a series people follow. Set the workplace once: Corporate Cold for offices, Hospital Ward for care settings, a shop or warehouse written as a location. Why a series stays consistent.
Rewinding the scene
The wrong way and the right way happen in the same place with the same people, so the difference is only the behaviour. Because the location and cast are drawn once, both versions match exactly. A narrator's voice-over can say Let's try that again between them.
| Beat | Shot to adapt |
|---|---|
| The counter | [Shot 1] 3s: Medium shot. @Customer puts a kettle on the counter. @Customer: It broke on day two. |
| Wrong way | [Shot 2] 3s: @Sam (flat): No receipt, no return. |
| Rewind | [Shot 3] 2s: @Narrator (voice-over): Let's try that again. |
| Right way | [Shot 4] 4s: @Sam (warm): I'm sorry. Let me look it up by your card. |

FAQ
Can AI make corporate training videos?
Yes, as short dramas: one situation per episode, with a recurring cast and a narrator for the rule.
Can I show the wrong way and the right way?
Yes. Both happen in the same location with the same cast, so only the behaviour changes.
Can I make it in several languages?
Yes. Make the episode again with another dialogue language and region.
Can I add subtitles for an LMS?
Yes: burned in or SRT, on accounts that have made a purchase.
Can I use our logo and office?
Brands and logos are not drawn reliably and well-known brands trigger the IP check; describe the space instead.
Can several people work on it?
A project belongs to one account; others review through share links, which open without an account.
How long should each video be?
Two to three minutes.
Which look suits training?
Digital HD for realism, or Family 3D Animation for a lighter tone.
