Last month, we got an email from Sarah that made us stop everything and just... smile.

She's a designer, a mom, and she runs an animal rescue shelter. And she's been using Consistent Character AI to create animations about the animals she's saved — real stories, real rescues, real happy endings.

One of them is about a baby donkey named Bam Bam who lost his mother.

We won't spoil it, but grab some tissues.

💖 A Creator on a Mission

Meet Sarah: 15 years as a designer. A family to care for. A shelter full of animals who need homes. And somehow, Sarah finds time to create animated stories that teach kids (and adults) about compassion and animal welfare.

Her YouTube channel is called Rescue Buddies, and honestly? It's beautiful work.

She used our app to animate "BamBam's Story" — about a baby donkey rescued from Karachi's streets who transformed from scared and alone to playful and loved.

Sarah didn't just create cute characters; she crafted an emotional journey that celebrates rescue and second chances. Her LinkedIn post is already inspiring others who care about animal welfare.

The Problem

Sarah tried using ChatGPT to generate her character illustrations. It worked... sort of. But getting the same character to look consistent across different scenes? Nearly impossible.

She'd spend hours trying to recreate the same donkey, the same dog, the same facial expressions. It was killing the joy of creating.

What Changed

She found ConsistentCharacter.ai and everything clicked.

Now she creates her characters once, then drops them into scene after scene — the barn, the vet clinic, playing in the field. Same character, every time, no fighting with the tool.
​
Sarah shared why she chose our tool:

"Thank YOU for building something that finally helps me make make-believe instead of making each scene 4-5 times on ChatGPT. Your app is just LOVE ❤️. Consistent Character has honestly changed how I create. I’ve been using it a lot lately and it’s incredible how smooth and intuitive it feels — it’s made storytelling so much easier and more enjoyable." - Sarah

She recorded a short video for our community — it's genuine, heartfelt, and you can see exactly why she does what she does. You can hear how much this means to her.

She's created hundreds of images for her stories. Full animated series. Characters that kids recognize and love.

What You Can Learn From Sarah's Approach

Whether you're creating children's books, educational content, or just telling stories that matter to you, here's what makes Sarah's process work:

She starts with real stories Not "what would be cool to animate" — actual events from her shelter. The baby donkey who wouldn't eat. The rescue dog who found his forever home. Truth makes better stories than fiction.

She builds her characters first, then creates scenes Instead of generating random images hoping they'll match, Sarah locks in her 2-3 main characters, then generates them in different situations. One character, ten different scenes, all consistent.

She batches her creative work When inspiration hits, she creates dozens of scenes at once. Builds a library. Then when it's time to make a video, everything's ready to go.

She's not hiding the AI Sarah's audience knows she uses AI tools. They don't care about the "how" — they care about the stories and the animals. Authenticity beats perfection.

Want to Help?

Sarah's dream is to grow her channel enough that it can help fund her shelter.
If her work touched you, you can donate to one of her shelter animals here.

We'd Love to Hear From You

Sarah's using this tool to help animals. We've seen teachers using it for lesson plans. Authors using it for book illustrations. Parents making bedtime stories for their kids.
