What can we use if the Gacha app or a screen-recorder isn't available?

If the Gacha app or screen recorder isn't available, make characters in a similar avatar app or draw them on paper/digitally and then follow Steps 5–13 using your device's voice recorder and any video editor to capture and assemble the clips.

My Scene 1 video or dialogue came out noisy or clipped—how do we fix it?

Re-record the dialogue in Step 6 in a quieter room or with a headset mic, check app permissions for the screen recorder before capturing Scene 1 in Step 7, and replace the bad audio or video when you import clips into the editor in Step 10.

How can we change the activity to suit younger or older kids?

For younger kids, shorten the script to 2–4 lines and simplify the 3‑box storyboard while an adult helps with Steps 5–11 (posing, recording, capturing, importing, exporting), and for older kids expand scenes, add more complex poses and layered audio or advanced transitions during Steps 9–12.

What are easy ways to personalize or extend our Gacha movie after export?

To personalize and extend the movie, add subtitles and custom backgrounds, create extra scenes by repeating Steps 5–8, layer original sound effects or low-volume music in Step 12, and then export and share the upgraded video in Step 13 on DIY.org.

Facts about filmmaking for kids

🎮 Gacha Life and Gacha Club let creators mix and match thousands of outfits, hairstyles, and poses to build unique characters.

🎤 Many filmmakers record dialogue separately and sync it later—this technique (called ADR) helps get clear, expressive lines.

🎞️ Movies traditionally run at 24 frames per second, while phone videos often use 30 or 60 fps—higher fps makes motion look smoother.

🏆 The Academy defines a short film as 40 minutes or less, so most kid-made movies easily fit festival short categories.

🎭 You only need two strong characters to tell a complete story—many memorable plays and shorts focus on just a duo.

How do I make a Gacha movie with two characters?

To make a Gacha movie with two characters, design distinct outfits and poses for each character in your Gacha app. Write a short script with a clear beginning, middle, and end, then plan scenes on paper. Arrange backgrounds and pose characters for each scene, record dialogue using text-to-speech or your voice, export or screen-record each scene, and import clips into a simple video editor to trim, add transitions, music, and subtitles. Export the final video.

What materials and apps do I need to make a two-character Gacha movie?

You’ll need a device (tablet, phone, or computer) with a Gacha app (like Gacha Life or Gacha Club) and a basic video editor app. A microphone or headphones with mic help record clear dialogue and a quiet room improves audio. Paper and pen for a quick storyboard or script are useful. Use royalty-free music or get permission for tracks. Also have charging cables and parental controls set up for a longer project.

What ages is making a two-character Gacha movie suitable for?

This activity fits kids roughly 7–14 years who can read short scripts and navigate apps with minimal help. Younger children (ages 5–6) can participate with adult assistance for character design, recording, and editing. Older teens can manage writing, voice acting, and more complex editing independently. Tailor complexity: pose-and-record for beginners, multi-scene storytelling and effects for older kids. Supervision is recommended for accounts and purchases.

What are the benefits and safety tips for kids making Gacha movies?

Making Gacha movies boosts storytelling, sequencing, design thinking, and basic editing skills while building confidence through voice work. Safety tips: don’t share personal information, avoid public chats, and use kid-safe account settings. Use royalty-free music or permissioned sounds and supervise in-app purchases. Set screen-time limits and breaks to prevent fatigue. If sharing videos, check privacy settings and get parental approval first.
