Transcripts

1. Master How to Create Viral Ghost/Scary AI Videos for TikTok and YouTube Shots: I welcome you to AI video creation. And in this course, we're going to be learning how to create scary AI videos style by style. My name is George Steve. I'm a senior software developer at E Manoir Global. I have very good interest in creating amazing and trending AI videos. And today, I'll be showing you how to create scary AI videos style by style. So we are going to learn how to create the images, how to create the voiceover, then how to add our images and voiceovers together and create a unique video. And then we add a caption to our video. And using cap codes, we go ahead and make this video amazing, and then we go ahead and export that video. Let's go ahead and look at a demo of the video we're going to create right in this cards. Don't want you to know this, but something happened in the desert. A streak of light tore across the sky. Locals swore it wasn't a meteor, the ground shook. Animals went silent. The military arrived within the hour. They said it was just a weather balloon. Classic excuse, but they blocked off miles of land. No one was allowed near. Weeks later, farmers reported tall, thin figures moving in the cornfields. Some described their skin as pale, almost glowing. Then people started disappearing. Every missing person's file was sealed, families silenced. Journalists who asked too many questions, lost their jobs. But the strangest part, security footage leaked. It showed soldiers escorting something onto a truck, not human, not animal, caged. And that truck was never seen again. Alright, so the video you just see now is what we're going to create right in this cure. And if you want to start creating your own trending, scary AI videos that are helping people to get views and engagements, this is the right time. Let's go ahead and get started immediately. Thank you so much, and I hope to see you in the class. 2. Step 1. Generate Audio and Image Prompts for Your Video: Welcome back again to another lecture. And in this video lecture, we're going to be learning how to create the scary AI video step by step. So if you've ever seen the video, you just watch in the previous lecture, and you can see how scary that video looks right. Now let's go ahead and guess at it and see how to create these scary vs. So go ahead and copy the prompt I just provided for you and you go over and paste that right here. It says, write a unique, suspenseful, scary story design for text to speech narration. The story should last approximately 120 to 160 ways. Now, all I need to do is I'll go ahead and generate the story. I've given you the description of how the story we go step by step, and then we go ahead and get started. So the very first one is the hook or introduction. They don't want you to know this, but something happened in the desert. Then a strike of light toll across the sky. Local saw it wasn't a meteor. The grand shook animal went silent. So you see how suspenseful that is? And N says, and that shock was never seen again. So, now you haven't able to create this. This is a narration and is one event to use to build a voice over. So to create image for this, this is where the whole work start. Now, I'm going to copy this and then I'll go ahead and paste that. I've provided you with this prompt. So all you need to do is from now on, we provide short sentences. Your task is to expand each one into a detailed image prompt written in an illustrated cartoon horror style. Featuring bold hotlines is a directed facial expressions, and yet playful atmosphere. Go ahead and do that and then chagTP waiting for you to get all these this done. Say says do you want me to also keep characters consistent across scenes like always driving the same or main character or should each prompt be stand alone? So now says from now on, whenever you give me a short sentence, I'll transform it into a detailed cartoon, hollow style image prompt. And the prompts include erosonar cartoon horror, style, bod Adline, is iterated facial expression, and aerial yet playful atmosphere. So what you need to do now is you can go ahead and copy all this. The reason why I'm going to copy this is because if you are doing this right from B, you will know what you copy it last and where you copy it first. So let's go ahead and open up notepad or note. Let's go ahead and open up notepad and use that. So this is my notepad. I'll go ahead and paste that, and over here, I can go ahead and remove this. But there's no problem. All I need is I'll be taking these scenes one by one. And I'd say they don't know Oh, they don't want you to know this, but something happened in the desert. And I can go ahead and copy this. I'll go ahead and pass that, let's go ahead and generate an image prompt. So it's going to generate an image prompt for this, and it's going to be done step by step. So this is a prompt generated for me, and you can see that. Now I'll go ahead and create the next one. So here, I'll be taking that one step at a time. It says a streak of light across the sky. Then locas, we swore it wasn't a meteor. Now, I want to take that one step at a time, so I'm going to have so much images generated for us. The reason is because we're going to make sure that this has something that kept audience hooked to the end of the video. Now we've generated the next one, then I'm going to take this Loca swore it wasn't a meteor. And then I'll go ahead and generate the next one. So this is the way we can be able to generate different sections of this video that we need, right? So in that way, we have something amazing at the end. Now I warhead and copy the next one, and then I guide and pays that. So just go ahead and continue this way until you finish every part of this story, okay? Then I warhead and copy the next one. The military arrived within an hour. The military arrived within an hour. So Now, I'm going to move ahead and do every one of them step by step without wasting time again. Right now, I've gartd almost every part of the story, and I have everything ready right here. And in that way, I can go ahead and start with image generation. So jump in the next video, we'll go ahead and start generating images step by step for this video. Thank you, and I'm going to see you in the next video lecture. 3. Step 2. Generate Images for Your Video: I'll call you back again. So end this video echo with more head start generating images for this video. So the very first thing you need to do is to head over to Wisk. You can go about Wisk, and get started with this or you head over to Image effects. So anyone of them, if you're using Wisk, simply go ahead and click on EntaTs that is labs dot Google, slash effec slash two slash Wix then go to your project. And if you want to do this, go ahead and click on this, choose 19 by 16 aspect ratio, the portrait. Ratio for this. In that way, you can now create things for YouTube shorts, TikTop videos, and Facebook reels. Now, if you're using Image effects, you can head over to this, select portraits 19 by 16, and you can go ahead and cruise the sat in order to have something that is actually similar and output. Now, I'll be using image effects for this. Now, head over to all the image prompts you've created, starting from the very first one, and then I'll go ahead and copy this. Then I'll head over to Image effects. I'll go ahead and paste that and now, if I create this, it's going to generate free video for me or free image and not video. So from these images, we now download them one by one, right? So let's go ahead and generate images one by one. So this is the very first image that's actually generated for me. Now can go ahead and copy the next one. I'll go ahead and get this head over to image effects. Let's go ahead and delete this and paste, and let's generate the next image. So in that way, we generate old images one after another, and then after we go ahead and continue with this. So this is the next one. Then we'll go ahead and continue with this. And let's CV and put this one here, and we move ahead. Alright, so watch all this. I've been able to generate all the images very very fast. Now, how 710 images generated in total. So you can see them. This is 16. The next one is 15. And then 14, 18, 12, 11, ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, and one. So we're going to start from here. All you need to do is to go ahead and download any of the best of the images that you like. And with images you downloaded here, that is what you use to generate video, right? So we have no way to generate all these images, and all we need to to go ahead and download them. So simply go ahead and click on these three dots and you can see download. And in that way, you can go ahead and download that. So I will go ahead and download this. Then we head over to the next one. Then we choose one that actually looks far better than every one of them. So I think this actually looks good. I can go ahead and also download this. Then in that way, we go ahead and check the number three. We can go ahead and download may this this look good. Go ahead and download. And in that way, you go ahead and download every one of them. So the next one should be this. Guide and download this. And then we go ahead and download every one of these images one at a time. So go ahead and get them, and in the next lecture, go ahead and move over to Garatin our audio. Thank you and see you in the next video lecture. 4. Step 3. Generate a Voice Over for Your Video: I will call you back again. Right now, we have able to download all the images we need for all these, and you can say, Well, images are ready and ready to download it. So all you need to do now is to go over to the this stuff you have that this my not part, I copied this or head over to the script. Why I ask you to copy that is because it's more easier for us. I'm going to remove the introduction. I'm going to remove the timestamp on the introductions and I'm going to copy all the narration so that the narration will be used to generate the voiceover. Now I've deleted that this by I'm copy that. And now you have copy this. All you need to do now is to head over to Google AI studio. So you can go over to gogle.com and type Google Aye studio, I get to this page. On inside here, you can move over to Native speech Generation, or you head over to Generate Media and right inside the Generates Media, that is where we're going to generate the audio we need, right? So what you click on Generate Media to get you to this. And this page, you see Geminis Speech generation. Click on that and IDA, move ahead and select only the single Speaker audio. Now pass the audio actually generated and move over to voice. Right inside voice, I always use chiba. It's more smooth for me to use and go ahead and click on Run. So go ahead and wait for this, and in no distant time, it will start to run. So now you can see that it has started running, and I wouldn't take care of an e. I'm going to have my audio ready, and I'll go ahead and download that, right? Right now, I have never actually generated my audio, and let's go ahead and listen to the very first two lines. They don't want you to know this, but something happened in the desert. A streak of light tore across the sky. Local swore it wasn't a meteor, the ground shook. Animals went silent. Right, so you can see that. And now all you need to do is to click on Tread dot and download Heo audio. And audio is now downloaded. So all we need to do now is in the next direction, we go ahead and put the audio and the video together and get at it immediately. So thank you, and we'll see you in the next video lecture. 5. Step 4. Edit, Add Captions and Publish Your Video: I welcome you back again. So right now we have everything we need for this video creation. We have a image, and then we also have a audio which have already downloaded. Now what is mining is to head over to cap Code. And right as a Capcde, you go ahead and arrange your photos according to the study line. So I have already added all the photos according to the study line. And now, because this is a scary video, you can go ahead and add shaky background so that the but grounds will be shaking or the photos can also be shaking. And to do that, all you need to do is to head over to effects. And under effects, we have this shaky effect. You can go ahead and add that to your photo. And now you can see that once you add that effect, I go ahead and play this this. That is cool, right? Let's go ahead and remove that. You can add that anytime say shake or something. And in that way, it can be able to create a bad run that is actually shaking in order to make the video to look amazing, alright? Now, one thing that you must not fill is the caption in order to get people hooked to this video. So go ahead and move to captions and generate your captions, and in all distant time, your captions will be generated, right? So our caption is almost ready, and very soon we go ahead and get that done and continue. So, we have a caption right here, and I can drag this it bits to see your caption and right here, can see that. So we can also select how you want it to be, I go about the template. And right now, I can go ahead and select I want this to be a white bad run. So we can select something like this. Let's go ahead and make sure that it looks good. So whatever you select the caption, go ahead and download your computer, and then we go ahead and move on, right? So in this video, I usually use this caption brown fox. So it is always far better. Now, let me go ahead and stretch that. And I can take that maybe to the center. It can be right here because I want it to be on the middle. And let's go ahead and show that everything looks good. Now, I'll head over to where the ground check. As see that this caption doesn't go out, so it show you have something like this. I think that looks good. Right now, because of this video, you can choose a caption that we always look bold, you know, a caption that will always be bold enough, okay? So in that way, you have something that actually gets the attition of the people. So let's go ahead and select something like brown. This actually can look good. So I can guide, stretch that and it's okay. Now, let's go ahead and S, you can change this color. Maybe you can choose another color altogether. This guy don't choose this color or this color. I think that is okay. Alright. As sad. So now I have this. I can go ahead and start on the beginning and play this again. So show you select your Okay, we actually working with template and the basic for this. So guide and select the template. Show you select the brown fox, or you select something that's actually look good. Now, let's go over to the beginning from the beginning and watch this. Now, let's go ahead and check it out. They don't want you to know this, but something happened in the desert. A streak of light tore across the sky. Locals swore it wasn't a meteor, the ground shook. Animals went silent. Military arrived within the hour. They said it was just a weather balloon. Classic excuse. But they blocked off miles of land. No one was allowed near. Weeks later, farmers reported tall, thin figures moving in the cornfields. Some described their skin as pale, almost glowing. Then people started disappearing. Every missing person's file was sealed, families silenced. Journalists who asked too many questions, lost their jobs. But the strangest part, security footage leaked. It showed soldiers escorting something onto a truck, not human, not animal, caged. And that truck was never seen again. Right, so you can see that I have no to make something so scary. And now you can go ahead and start creating your own scary AI videos step by step. So I believe that is so cool, right? So put it down. And if you have any question, go ahead and use the QuestionaEA section, and I'm going to get back to you as soon as possible. Thank you so much, and I'm going to see you in the next video lecture.
