Summary
According to a post on X by @Cont_animation, the creator broke down the production of a short called "Chumbo," which used 272 shots, 1,476 video generations, 855 images and 74 takes for a single fall. The work took five weeks and used Magnific. The same post says miilesus recreated another creator's video using a Midjourney character and Seedance 2.5 via eachlabs, and argues that AI can do almost anything in seconds except write a good script.

Why it matters
The numbers suggest that polished AI video still depends on heavy iteration, with many generations needed before a usable shot. Creators and studios planning AI-assisted shorts may need to budget time for repeated takes and scripting rather than assuming fast output. Watch whether more creators publish comparable production breakdowns to show how typical these workflows are.
