About This Class

Are you tired of searching through endless pages of stock footage only to find clips that don’t quite match your vision? Or maybe you found the perfect clip, but it costs a fortune?

Welcome to the future of video creation. In this course, I will show you how to generate your own high-quality, custom B-roll footage from scratch using two powerful (and free-to-try) AI tools: Adobe Firefly and the new Google Whisk.

Google Whisk is a cutting-edge tool from Google Labs that allows you to "remix" images by blending specific subjects, scenes, and styles. By combining this with Adobe Firefly’s industry-leading video generation model, you can create consistent, cinematic video clips that look exactly how you imagined them.

What You Will Learn:

  • Introduction to AI B-Roll: Understanding how generative video works and why it’s a game-changer for content creators.

  • Mastering Google Whisk: How to use the "Subject, Scene, Style" workflow to generate precise image assets that serve as the perfect foundation for your video.

  • Adobe Firefly Magic: How to take your static images and turn them into moving, high-definition video clips using Firefly’s Image-to-Video feature.

  • Prompt Engineering: Tips for writing prompts that result in realistic lighting, motion, and textures.

  • The Complete Workflow: A step-by-step guide to going from a simple idea to a finished video clip ready for your timeline.

Who This Class Is For:

  • YouTubers & Content Creators who need specific B-roll (e.g., "an exam hall") that is hard to film.

  • Video Editors looking to speed up their workflow and reduce stock footage costs.

  • Social Media Managers creating visual assets for Reels, TikToks, or Shorts.

  • Beginners curious about AI video tools—no prior video editing experience is required!

In this lecture, we are going to understand how Adobe Firefly and Google Wix actually work and what are these things? For the basics, if you have not really know about the Adobe Firefly and Google is, the are AI tools through which you can generate images and videos. Let's go to adobffla.com. This is the website where you can create your own account using your GML account and creating an account in it is really simple just like any other GML account. It's really easy once you go to adobffla.com and once you go to Google IS as you can see, this is WIX lab labs dot google SFX. I will be sharing this link with you in the description so you don't have to worry about the link and once you go to create something amazing. Enter tool, you will redirect to this particular window, and this is the window where the magic happen. After that, for the Adobe Firefly, once you go to videos and click on Generate or you can create or generate anywhere you go, it will land you on the same page. Generate it without typing anything. It will not generate for you, but it will redirect you to the particular video where the magic happened. Now let's go to Adobe Firefly In the Adobe Firefly, there is offer right now going on. Till sometime you can actually play it around and it will not deduct any credit from your account. This is the deal right now going in the Ado fly and it doesn't matter. All these deals come again and again, so it doesn't matter. Right now, as you can see, this is the cart information of my account. For the standard features, I have unlimited access just like generating images, but using Adobe Fy fly models only. Here is the catch. One more thing, for the premium features, I have 4,000 carts left in my account. For using Adobe Firefly, you must have a credit, okay. But for using Google Wix, there is no requirement of cart at all. It is totally free and you can use it for unlimited time. For Adobe Firefly, they might give you some free carats every month so you can use it and try it as you want. Right now, we have so many carats, so we can use it according to our N, the Firefly video model until first December, there is a offer going on that we can use it. Got it. Right now, let's try Five fly with it. 3. Create your first B roll and animate it using Firefly and Whisk: Skillshare, you can check my Google Wix scores so you can understand the basics of Google WIC if you are very lazy to do that, then there is no problem. You can still learn by watching this entire video. Let's move forward. First of all, let's generate our image and here I have uploaded it. Once you upload it, you can minimize or maximize it according to your need. I've uploaded the image of mine, that is the subject. After that, you have to upload image of the scene or the sty. Let's open this image. So here's the image. I just want to download it. Let's save this image, save images. This is a simple image and you simply have to upload this image into your scene or into your style. Let's upload this in style. Once you upload this in style, then you have to simply press Enter that's st Google Wix will give you an image. What you will get you will get this image. Can you see here's me and here is the image that I have uploaded, the style? Google Bix automatically understand the style of the image and the subject and it automatically created the stock image for you. Now let's download this image or this image, it's up to you, which one you like, you can use it. Let's download this one. And save. Once you download it, you have to simply go to Adobe Firefly. In the Adobe Firefly, simply upload this image. That's all you have to do. Once you upload this, in the frame, you have to upload it. In the frame, once you upload it, done. After that, you simply have to add a simple prompt. That is zoom in, let's do it or zoom out. Let's do a Zoom out here. Zoom out, and subject, I'm adding a prompt here, subject is smiling. That's all. And writing. That is important to add what subject is doing. The subject is smiling and writing. Let's generate it and I'm right now generating it at 7:20 P B ten ATP might take some time, but not too much time. Now let's wait for some time. This is one use case we are talking about. We are going to create some more extra images and stock videos. Now, once you create this one, you have the basic ideas of using Cel whisk and Adobe Firefly. Got it. Let's play this video. It looks odd, it looks odd. The size of the teeth are very big, but it is totally good. Now let's try to change the model here. Got it. I'm using Sra two realistic video generation Video audio. Let's try this one and how many cats we are going to use, we are going to use only 120 cats. Now let's generate it again with this very image, let's generate. Wait for some time and it will generate a video for you. It's not working at all. Let's try again if we get the result or not. Y one, y two, let's try this one. Did the hundred got it smiling and 720 P 250 and let's see if we get the result or not. With the other models, there might some problem. Maybe there might be some guideline issues. Y two is working perfectly fine. Let's play this video. Can you see the quality that we got here? It's really amazing and we can use this shot directly into our video. Cool, right? 4. Create different Images in Google Whisk: Going to test it further. Let's see. Now in the Pixabay, I have search Simplement and right now let's use this image and download this one. Let's download this one. Simply, you have to simply upload it in the Google Viz in the style section again. Let's delete this one and upload the image in the style section and here, we have to change the dimension. Let's change the dimension to portrait. Once you change the dimension to portrait, you simply have to press Enter. That's all you have to do. You can use a prom if you want to add a prom that the subject is looking like a style reference, that salt you have to add. Because it is really basic tool and using this tool is really easy. There is no change. Let's try to remove the prompt here and generate again. Let's see what we will get. It's really amazing. Let's try to generate this image with the landscape also. Let's generate. And the quality, it's really amazing. It's really amazing. Now, this is what we call AI generating image. Let's save it and save this image. Now, save this image also. Let's save this. Let's save this one. I like this one. I'm going to use it as my DP. Now let's again generate another image using a reference. Let's see, this is the reference or we can say, let's use this one as a reference. I like this one, let's download this image. Can you see how automatically it's filled up the space on the left hand right hand side? Can you see this is the power of actually Google Viz. The dimension we have uploaded for the image is not in the wide screen and it has automatically generated the wide screen for us. That is why I love this tool. 5. How to use Prompt for correct image generation: Image we are using, we are going to use this one. Now let's upload this image in this style and remove this and select this. It has analyzed the image, and now you don't have to add any prompt here, you simply have to enter it. Once you enter it, let's wait for some seconds only. Within 15 to 20 seconds, you will get your result. Okay, so it has not added the style for me. Let's try to add the scene here. Let's try it with the scene also. If we can edit or not, let's try it. There might be some problem with the understanding of this image. It could be the eyes of this image because it has google on his face, it might not be able to understand the face of the Okay. Now I'm amazed the way it's generated the image. Wow. It's actually cool. I never expected that. Now let's try to remove the scene, the scene, what the scene has done. It actually add the subject into the scene. This is what the scene is done and within the style, the subject has taken over the perspective, the style, the aesthetic of the image, and the Google Wix will generate the image for us according to the style reference we have uploaded. Now let's try to generate again. Let's see what we will get. It's actually trying to replicate the style of the image. Now we have to add the prompt. The subject is holding the rabbit. Just like the style image upload it. Now let's generate again. Here is the magic. You can see it has automatically understand the subject, understand the rabbit in the image, and style has been updated. Now let's try to save this image and this is the image, you can save again. Now all these image has been saved. 6. Generate your professional image: Let's try to generate a professional image also because for the vi ros we might require the professional image also. Let's try to upload this image in the style again. Now let's again try to know we don't need any prompt here for the subject and for the style reference has been analyzed it, now let's try to generate again. It's actually taking the subject background. Now let's try to add use the style the subject is looking just like the style and in professional attire. Let's change the spelling if we have missed one. Professional attire. Let's try to regenerate it again and let's see what we'll get. If we get the background of the subject, then we have to remove the background of the subject and we have to change it to white. Otherwise, if we get the result, it's good for us. Now, here is the result that we got. It's totally just like it and I loved it. Let's save this one. 7. Create second B Roll using Adobe firefly: We have done here, we have generated our own images here. Now let's try to generate video out of all these images that we have already generated. Now I'm using Reto again, and for that purpose, let's group and this one the image I'm using this delete this one. As you can see, there is a cross sign. You can delete this one. Ate two cinematic frame, and you simply have to drag this image here. It will automatically upload. Now, add a prompt here. The subject is smiling and looking into the camera. That's all I'm using. Right now I'm using 720 P and this is the white skin I'm using. Let's generate it. It's totally depending on your experience. The more you play with these tools, the more you will learn. That's all. The video has been generated using our image. Can you see the quality that we got here? It's really amazing. It's actually created the side view of my image. It's awesome to use this AI tool. Now let's try to generate another frame using our keyframe. This is the keyframe we have added. Now let's add the camera. Zoom in and the camera zoom in into the scene and a subject sitting on the chair is moving his hand on the rabbit naturally. I have added a prompt, a basic prompt. This is the prompt that I have thought. This is what I want from my frame to generate it into a video. That's all I want it. Now let's generate it and wait for some time. Meanwhile, you can download this image, this one, we have generated using Adobe Firefly video and it's not working very well. Now let's download this one, save this one, save this one, and wait for this one. Within about one or 2 minutes, you will get your video here. Now let's jump to the future. 8. Tips and Technique for Good B roll: Video has been generated, let's play it out. Let's see. This is not what I want it to be done, but it's okay, but this is what I wanted. I have to change the prompter. The subject sitting on the chair and is moving his head on the rabbit naturally. Let's use Adobe Firefly video. Let's generate using this one. We simply have to test it out. It has generated, so there is mid glitch and I can confidently say that it actually break when you add so many subject here. I recommend you to simply use one subject at a time, so it can actually focus on that actual subject. You have to keep that into your mind while generating a V role for your video for your client. Now let's remove this frame and try to add another frame that is this one. This is the frame I want to add, and again, I'm using y two, a cinematic video. Now let's see the subject. Smile and then take a call and the subject is looking into its mobile. That's all I want it to be done. First, it's looking at the camera and after that, it's looked into the mobile and we can actually reverse this video while using the mobile, it will automatically look towards the camera. We can reverse it when we have to think it creatively and cleverly. The subject will go into Mobile, that's all. Now let's generate again with the prompt of 720 for high quality purpose for 720, it's enough. If you want to create TN ATP, you can do it. You can do so. It's totally depend on the credit that you have in your account. Now let's wait for some time again. 9. Stock Video for reference in Adobe firefly: The video has been generated, let's play it and I'm really excited. Awesome. I'm actually speechless, the way it has created the image. The way it has created the video, I'm actually amazed and I'm really speechless. Can you see the quality that we got here? It's awesome. The camera has been handled perfectly. And it's looking into the camera and then into the mobile, it's perfectly and you can use it online anywhere. It's really awesome. Now let's save this one. We have discussed some example and created our own images using Google Wix and created our own roles with our own face in the Adobe Firefly. 10. Project Details: As a project, I want you to use this skill set into your video and share the example with me in the project gallery, and I will be happy to see that. Also, you can exactly create all these type of reference that I have shared and I will be sharing, all the images that I have used at for style and my own image, you can create that or you can use your own image for the project. It's totally your choice. Thank you so much for taking this course and I will see you in the next time. Thank you for watching.
