My goal with AI is to make it ✨i n v i s i b l e✨

Every decision I make, from prompting to selecting which generation actually works, is in pursuit of this aim.

AI will always have imperfections, but the one thing I refuse to compromise on is whether my characters are giving a believable performance or not.

Because imo, that's the one thing that can make people forget they’re watching AI at all.

Take the attached clip for example:

Watch Karl right after Beethoven says “Well?” He tosses his pen back into the holder and gives a look that says “brother, can you PULEAASE stop talking!”

That's something that I prompted for specifically.

[He tosses his quill down, irritated, and turns his head to the side to look at his brother, a little puzzled at what has got into him, and answers him. He asks line 1 as a real question, dry, mildly exasperated, as if to say, "What's up with you?"]

Those details were enough to yield a performance that, to me, really felt like an older brother pestering his little brother.

And notice how I'm saying "to me."

Because I can't always tell you why I'm choosing one take over another. The reasoning behind my choice could very well come down to something as small as “he didn’t exhale fast enough.”

I'm just letting my intuition be my guide.

I could hand you my exact prompts, character refs and environments, and you’d still end up with a different scene from mine due to a difference in our intuition.

But that's kinda the point, isn't it?

Anyone can copy prompts and JuSt pUSh A bUtTOn until thy kingdom come, but knowing which takes to keep is the actual craft behind all of this.

Steal my YouTube script framework we use at DecimaLabs ↓

• Start with the angle. Decide what the video is actually trying to explain, prove, or change in the viewer’s mind.

• Choose the format. Tutorial, case study, breakdown, story, comparison, reaction. The format decides how the script should flow.

• Write the working title early. The title is the promise. Every section of the script should help deliver it.

• Gather the proof before writing. Pull the examples, screenshots, ads, data, case studies, product pages, and B-roll you may want to use.

• Write the hook around one strong idea. A contrast, question, problem, result, or surprising example. Give people a reason to keep watching.

• Break the body into clear sections. One section = one main idea. Each section should move the argument forward.

• Leave space for the founder to be the expert. As the scriptwriter, you shouldn’t pretend to know everything they know. Add prompts like “[Add your experience here]”, “[Give a client example]”, or “[Explain what you’ve seen in practice].” Give them room to add the insight only they can provide.

• Use examples constantly. Don’t leave important points abstract. Show the product, screenshot, ad, number, comparison, or case study.

• Write editor notes directly into the script. Tell the editor when to show B-roll, graphics, screenshots, split screens, animations, or on-screen text.

• Build transitions between sections. The next point should feel like the natural continuation of the previous one, not a random “point number two.”

• End with the takeaway first, then the CTA. Resolve the idea before asking the viewer to subscribe, watch another video, download something, or book a call.

[mango @mangoster]

is anyone actually struggling to still land clients as an editor?

cause all the people that i've ever reffered have been working with the same clients for years atp

even the people that got into editing THIS year have clients that they've been working with for months on end

the ones that are convinced that there's a shortage of clients are people who don't post their edits anywhere consistently enough and think they're owed a client

or maybe they're just ass at editing

i'd even go as far as to say that there's a shortage of actual GOOD editors, not clients

logically, once a client sees how much time and effort you save them, you're an asset that they CANNOT affford to lose, and clients are always on the hunt for people that don't need much managing and can execute on their own

to me it seems like the only people who are struggling to find work are the ones that have yet to put in the time and effort required to get their name out infront of the people that need their services

@Ayolistyt what do you need

[Alex | Video Marketing @decimablack]

for people who are saying cinematic ai is killing art.

she would need a $1-$10M budget to produce a movie like this with multiple actors, sets, cameraman, post production crew, sound designers, insurance, food, etc.

so you are basically saying only people with budget can / should make art. i wholeheartedly reject that

[Monique Pryce @second_bassoon]

@MartinSchalle17 Dang, you’re right! I forgot to look into the actors and set designers and producers and camera crew and costume designers…

I wonder if they’ll accept my appreciation as pay? They’d be working for a noble cause! And I’ll give them a bit of food as a bonus.

You know anyone?

@Vexian content doesnt go viral on twitter unless it’s an orchestrated engagement pod or seriously offend a group of people. im gonna bet on the former since comments are positive
