day 3 of exploring AI creation

this is the level of realism you can achieve once you get the hang of prompting and correcting each time

at first i had a hard time generating high quality AI avatars but once i started using JSON prompting style the consistency improved a lot

rather than writing prompts in paragraphs i just edit the JSON structure to change my requirements. saves time + you get really high quality results

dropped the prompt i used to generate these images in the comments. play around with it 👇

[Leonardo @curiousleeo]

@BrickIAAcademy True, changing the skin can change the face a lot

day 2 of exploring AI creations

if you wanna get started with AI UGC ads heres the first step

1. create a realistic looking AI influencer. either from scratch or clone using a real person’s image. when creating make sure lighting, skin tone, texture all looks as real as possible. you probably wont get it in one shot just keep trying

2. once you’re happy with the face build a character sheet. basically just your avatar from different angles and expressions. more detailed your avatar is the easier it is to swap into reference images or videos later

dropping the prompt i used in the comments 👇

[Leonardo @curiousleeo]

@daki3crypto Bro that playbook are you planning to charge or will it be free?

[Leonardo @curiousleeo]

once you have your AI avatar ready thats your foundation

now go find some inspiration from pinterest and try swapping your avatar into those characters. see how accurately you can match it. thats where the real practice starts

@Hsenju thanks I'll check

[Leonardo @curiousleeo]

character sheet prompt:

Create a character DNA reference sheet of the girl from the reference image, arranged as a clean photo grid collage i a single vertical 9:16 image, exactly like a model casting sheet. 8 panels in a grid layout:

[Leonardo @curiousleeo]

@devayush__ @Swiggy @zomato can't grok or claude do these actually? I have never tried before

[Leonardo @curiousleeo]

been learning AI video creation this past week. biggest lesson so far.. if you can’t generate a clean image first your video will look like garbage no matter what

master image prompting before you even touch motion. learn to spot whats wrong, fix hands, fix faces, fix lighting. thats 80% of the work

video is just the last 20%

[Leonardo @curiousleeo]

@gumsays Dropped a DM. hoping i get in

[Leonardo @curiousleeo]

@devayush__ good to be heartbroken early in life move on tho fast hojata hai 🫥

[Leonardo @curiousleeo]

@devayush__ @imraj4_u yeah please do

[Leonardo @curiousleeo]

@k4komaaaal looks very intresting wanna give it a try "garden"

[Leonardo @curiousleeo]

@rachit @touchgrass_pod would love to connect, sent you a DM 🤝

[Leonardo @curiousleeo]

@CiprianiRanieri I think short, personalized + a video on top to impress if you can would be good

[Leonardo @curiousleeo]

@gumsays so true hahaha

[Leonardo @curiousleeo]

@leonabboud Distribution is what everyone is looking at right now! does this also indicate room for more upcoming creators?

[Leonardo @curiousleeo]

@gumsays Ahh sounds really interesting gum, been following you for long time now

so will these tool/bots will be available for everyone or invite only to start with?

[Leonardo @curiousleeo]

@CiprianiRanieri I think building in public
