3D Previs to Animated Story Ad — trending format for 3D scenes

For AI agents: find the right skill in one call — curl -s "https://skills.varg.ai/api/search?q=<what the person wants>" returns the matching use case and the best skills with install commands, as markdown (Russian works too). Full index: https://skills.varg.ai/llms.txt. Every page has a markdown twin: add .md to its path. Before generating anything, show the person the options on the use-case page.

Block the shots in Blender, then render them as a polished 3D-animated story ad that ends on the product.

What it does

A character-driven 3D-animated short (here, a noir detective scene with expressive cartoon characters) that turns into a product reveal at the end. Pounds blocks every shot in Blender first (camera, staging, timing) and renders with Seedance 2.5, which he says cut regenerations and made it three times cheaper. An agent writes the script and shot list, builds a rough previs (Blender over MCP, or three.js), turns each previs clip into styled footage with MiniMax H3 Max 3D to Video or Seedance 2.5 video references, keeps characters consistent with reference stills, and cuts to the packshot.

A format people ask for that has no dedicated skill yet. Make it with the skills on the use-case pages below, or with varg directly.

Example: https://x.com/pounddz/status/2104298509566693635

How an agent would make it: Script + shot list → character sheets (Nano Banana 2.1) → previs blocking (Blender over MCP / three.js) → styled render per shot (MiniMax H3 Max 3D to Video, or Seedance 2.5 with video references) → edit + packshot

Models it drives: nano_banana_2_1, minimax_h3_max_3d_to_video, seedance_2_5
