I made a tool that lets you take a short story, turn it into a script, and then make it into a comic book using Gemini Notebook. I used it to create a graphic novella as well as an anime short. Plenty of students have strong stories to tell but can't draw, and plenty of artistic students struggle with pacing and dialogue. A workflow like this can lower that illustration barrier, as long as someone is still checking the work.
