Hello everyone, when it comes to websites and tools related to AI, I have shared a lot of information, but some people focus too much on the tools, always pursuing the latest, hottest, and best AI tools, fearing being left behind by the times.
On the other hand, some people have already applied these AI tools to serve their own content. There is a master who used a tool with almost zero threshold and gained 200,000 followers in less than a week.
What did the master do?#
Simply put, they used AI to create paintings and generate cute, copyright-free images. Then, with the help of websites that can turn images into videos, they selected a suitable voice-over that matched the character's image and combined it using video editing software.
This is mainly used in the fields of traditional Chinese culture, success studies, and blessings. It has strong interactivity and is suitable for increasing exposure. AI can also generate content, which can be found in books and online. Whether it's promoting related books and products through video sales or attracting followers and advertising through related materials, monetization is not a problem.
Imitation#
Similarly, you can use these tools for fast content creation in other fields. The advantage of this approach is that others don't know about it, so you won't face competition pressure and have ample freedom to create. In other words, even if the quality is not great, people will still watch it out of curiosity and novelty. Some people can't even tell the difference between AI and real people.
Just take a look at the commentary videos next door, everyone thinks they can make money, so they all start doing it, and they all end up looking the same. Without any unique characteristics, they won't survive.
Tool Selection#
AI Drawing#
Now let's briefly talk about the selection of related tools. First, for images, you don't necessarily have to use MJ. QQ channels require beta qualifications, and fine creations on Discord require membership. Although there are low-priced shared accounts on a certain e-commerce platform, I recommend that you go to some online drawing websites in China and abroad, where you can generate images for free. Because our requirements are not high, what matters is that the images are copyright-free and suitable for your desired field.
For Chinese websites in this field, you can directly use Chinese descriptions. For foreign drawing websites, you can use these keyword suggestion websites. Enter the Chinese description, and they will naturally convert it into English keywords for you. With the converted keywords, you can directly go to foreign AI drawing websites to generate images. If you're not satisfied, you may need to adjust a few more times.
studio.d-id#
After generating the desired image, we can open the website studio.d-id. It can turn the characters in your image into animated characters. Click on "Create Video" in the upper left corner, and upload the image generated by AI as the performer. The script is the text you have prepared, and you can choose the language, voice, and style below. It can directly generate voice-over videos. However, the effects may be a bit repetitive. If you think your voice sounds good, you can record the audio in advance and upload it here. It will generate a video with corresponding lip movements based on your voice-over. If you are not satisfied with your own voice or the voices provided by this website, you will need to choose a separate voice-over software.
Voice-over#
There are many options for voice-over software, and the good ones are usually paid. The free ones have average effects. Here, I recommend a voice-over app developed by a master in the group called "Dong Yin". It's free to use, but there is a limited quantity because it uses services provided by Baidu and Alibaba, which have costs.
If you plan to go global, many AI voice-over tools can preserve the tone of your voice and dub it into other languages. It depends on your requirements for video quality.
