Create UNLIMITED VIRAL Carousels With Opus 5.5 — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00Opus 5.5 just released, and you can now
- 0:02create hundreds of beautiful and
- 0:04premium-looking carousels in just a
- 0:06couple of minutes without Hicksfield or
- 0:08any AI image generator. These can all be
- 0:11made inside of Claude code. So, in this
- 0:13video, I'm going to show you how simple
- 0:15and easy it is to create these
- 0:17carousels, how to structure your
- 0:18prompts, and how to make it into a
- 0:20repeatable skill so you can actually
- 0:21create hundreds of these carousels to
- 0:24post for your social media pages. So,
- 0:25first, here is how I went about creating
- 0:27these. Every one of these carousels is
- 0:29prompted the exact same topic, which is
- 0:31five prompting mistakes that make AI
- 0:33give you bad answers and the fix for
- 0:35each. So, it's the same topic, the same
- 0:37five points, and the same call to action
- 0:39at the end for the final slide. So, the
- 0:41only thing I changed between them is
- 0:43actually the style portion of the
- 0:44prompt. So, anything that you see that's
- 0:46different in the carousels is purely
- 0:48just Claude making a different design
- 0:50decision. I first tested creating 2D
- 0:52carousels, and here you can see what
- 0:54they look like. So, these three styles
- 0:56are Swiss poster, riso zine, and a star
- 0:59chart. And I think they look pretty
- 1:00cool, but just remember that these are
- 1:02created using just one master prompt, so
- 1:04there's no editing and no reference
- 1:06images. But, as cool as they look, I
- 1:08think they are a little bit chaotic.
- 1:10They just have a little bit too much
- 1:11going on. Like, especially this riso
- 1:14zine style carousel, the graphics, they
- 1:16look pretty cool. I like it. However,
- 1:18it's just a bit difficult to actually
- 1:20read the text because everything's
- 1:22highlighted, you got some crosses over
- 1:24the entire piece of text, and it's just
- 1:27like all over the place. The text is not
- 1:28just in one spot. But, hey, I mean,
- 1:30maybe it's just not my taste. Maybe it's
- 1:31something that you like, but for me, I
- 1:33just think it's a little bit too much.
- 1:34But, for the next carousels, I added a
- 1:36rule where basically the artistic
- 1:38portion of the carousel gets its own
- 1:40space, and then the actual main text
- 1:42content gets its own space. That way,
- 1:44you have a bit more separation, and so
- 1:46it's actually easier to read the main
- 1:48content of the carousel. So, the next
- 1:50two are an ink brush style and a park
- 1:53poster style with that rule applied, and
- 1:55you can immediately see how much cleaner
- 1:58this looks. So, you have the text at the
- 2:00bottom, and you have the graphic at the
- 2:01top. So, immediately just on first
- 2:03glance, it is much, much easier to read.
- 2:06And even though it's probably the most
- 2:07basic carousel so far, I think the ink
- 2:10brush style of carousel just looks a
- 2:13whole lot better to me. Like it's
- 2:14actually something that I could see
- 2:16myself using in my own posts. But so
- 2:18far, all of these carousels have been
- 2:202D. And yes, 2D looks pretty cool, but I
- 2:23wanted to test out 3D carousels with the
- 2:25new Opus 5.5. And that's because with
- 2:28previous AI models, 3D has never really
- 2:30looked that good, especially with
- 2:32something like carousels, where you need
- 2:33to have consistency across every single
- 2:36slide. And I'll tell you now, Opus 5.5
- 2:39is pretty astounding when creating these
- 2:413D carousels. But before I show you
- 2:43that, please subscribe to the channel as
- 2:45it's completely free. It takes a second
- 2:47and helps me out a ton. So, here we have
- 2:49the 3D carousels. We have a gold robot
- 2:52character, a clay character, a glass
- 2:55gallery Apple kind of style, a floating
- 2:58islands with a fox character style, and
- 3:00a chessboard style. But I'm not really a
- 3:03fan of the chessboard one. So, you can
- 3:04see from these that you can get some
- 3:06pretty cool 3D graphics, and they're
- 3:09pretty consistent across the different
- 3:10slides. And I think they look pretty
- 3:12awesome, especially the glass style. I
- 3:14just think it looks pretty premium. But
- 3:15now, I want to show you how you can
- 3:17actually create these carousels for
- 3:18yourself, either the 2D or the 3D
- 3:21version, whichever one you prefer. So,
- 3:22for every single carousel I just showed
- 3:24you, I just used one big master general
- 3:27prompt like this, where I specified
- 3:28everything that I'm looking for in the
- 3:30carousel. So, first, you say who Claude
- 3:32is. You can say, "You are a designer, a
- 3:35luxury brand art director, indie game
- 3:37artist, an editorial magazine designer."
- 3:39Doesn't matter. You just want to give it
- 3:41a specific title, depending on the type
- 3:43of style of carousel that you want to
- 3:45make. Build me an Instagram carousel
- 3:46that looks, and then you specify the
- 3:48feeling, you know, either premium, maybe
- 3:50arcadey, cinematic, common minimal.
- 3:52Depends on what you're looking for. So,
- 3:54then you have part two, which is the
- 3:55brief of the carousel. So, this is
- 3:57actually like the main content of what
- 3:59the carousel is going to be. So, the
- 4:00topic, the audience, you know, who it's
- 4:02for. Is it going to be for an older
- 4:04generation, you know, younger people, or
- 4:06for technical people. Say what you want
- 4:08there. Then a comment keyword. Now, in
- 4:10my carousels that I showed you, in the
- 4:12final slide, there's always a comment
- 4:14CTA. So, you know, something like
- 4:16comment prompts to get the resource
- 4:17guide, something like that. But, if you
- 4:19don't want that for your carousel, then
- 4:20you can feel free to just remove that
- 4:22line. And also for the next line right
- 4:23here, which is what they get. So, if
- 4:25you're sending them prompts, or a cheat
- 4:27sheet, or images, anything like that.
- 4:29And then right here for your handle,
- 4:30just you know, put in your social media
- 4:31handle, so that every single page will
- 4:33have your watermarked handle somewhere
- 4:35on the page, depending on the style of
- 4:37the carousel. And then for part three,
- 4:38it's pretty simple. You just explain
- 4:40exactly what you want on every single
- 4:42slide. So, here I say something like one
- 4:44slide per idea, you know, a CTA slide at
- 4:47the end. And then for the cover, a hook
- 4:49headline of six words maximum, and a
- 4:51subline of 10 words. So, here you can be
- 4:53as detailed as you want, and say exactly
- 4:56what you want on every single slide. And
- 4:57now part four is the style, and this is
- 5:00the good part. So, this is where you
- 5:01explain the entire visual guide and
- 5:04style for the carousel. So, you give the
- 5:06style name, you say what it's inspired
- 5:08by. Maybe you have some reference
- 5:10images, so you can say, "I've attached
- 5:11reference images, match their style
- 5:13exactly." And then you also write the
- 5:15colors, the fonts, the layout, and then
- 5:17maybe even a character, like we saw in
- 5:19the previous carousels with the 3D
- 5:21versions. And what you can also put here
- 5:23is, let's say that you have a brand
- 5:24guideline. Let's say you have a certain
- 5:26business, and you want to create
- 5:27consistent carousels with your branding
- 5:29colors, specify that here. You can also
- 5:31attach a PDF of that entire brand
- 5:33guideline. So, that's where you define
- 5:35the style. Now, here for the technical
- 5:36setup, you can just copy it as is. You
- 5:38don't really need to change anything.
- 5:40Maybe you want to change the sizing of
- 5:42the carousel. Here I've written 1080 by
- 5:441350, which is 4 by 5 aspect ratio. But,
- 5:48you can also do a 1x1 aspect ratio,
- 5:50which is just 1080 by 1080. And then
- 5:52same for part six and part seven, you
- 5:54can just copy these as is. You don't
- 5:56really need to change anything. So, if
- 5:57we, for example, look at the glass
- 5:59gallery style of carousel that I made,
- 6:02you can see the prompt up here and how I
- 6:05wrote it. So, I said, "You are a
- 6:06creative director who designs product
- 6:08launch visuals for the world's most
- 6:10premium tech brands." So, that's the
- 6:12direction I gave for Claude. I wrote the
- 6:14topic here. The audience is for everyday
- 6:16people who use ChatGPT or Claude, but
- 6:18who are not technical. And you get the
- 6:21idea. I just wrote every single detail
- 6:23for that exact style, and you can read
- 6:25it all here. But, what you can do that's
- 6:27even better that you can pair with this
- 6:29prompt is actually getting some
- 6:31reference images for your carousel. So,
- 6:33like I mentioned earlier in the style
- 6:34section, you can actually mention that
- 6:36you've attached some reference images.
- 6:37So, let's actually go and get that. I
- 6:39recommend that you go to Pinterest.
- 6:41Here, you can find hundreds of different
- 6:43styles of carousels. Just go to the
- 6:45search bar and just type in Instagram
- 6:47carousel, and you can just scroll this
- 6:49list down here, and you'll find tons and
- 6:51tons of different styles. And maybe even
- 6:53instead of writing Instagram carousel,
- 6:55you can just write carousel, and you
- 6:57probably will get better results with
- 6:58that. Yeah, so here, you get a bit more
- 7:01generalized results. But, something I do
- 7:03want to point out is that, for example,
- 7:05you have a carousel design like this.
- 7:07Just be aware that because you are not
- 7:09using Higgs Field or an AI image
- 7:11generator, Claude is not going to be
- 7:12able to recreate Deadpool right here,
- 7:15right? Now, you could put that as a
- 7:17reference image. However, Claude is
- 7:18going to try to recreate that as
- 7:20something like a graphic, not actually a
- 7:22realistic version of Deadpool. But, I
- 7:24decided that I actually wanted to try
- 7:26and test that anyways. So, I found this
- 7:28carousel right here, which I thought
- 7:30looked pretty damn cool. So, here, you
- 7:32can see it has this character in the
- 7:34front, this guy in a mask, and this
- 7:35really nice big bold text font at the
- 7:37top right here. And if we scroll
- 7:39through, you'll see that all of these
- 7:41slides are pretty consistent and then
- 7:43eventually we get to the CTA slide right
- 7:46there. So, all I did is I went through
- 7:48each image, saved it to my computer, and
- 7:50then I just brought it as a reference
- 7:52image into Claude. And you can see right
- 7:53here, I attached the images, I attached
- 7:55the cover image, the second slide, and
- 7:57then I attached just only like one or
- 7:58two of the main slides. It doesn't need
- 8:00all of them. And then finally, the CTA
- 8:02slide. And you can see the structure of
- 8:04the prompt is the exact same except at
- 8:07the start, I just wrote, "I've attached
- 8:08five reference images from uh one
- 8:10Instagram carousel creator. Study them
- 8:12closely, the paper, the typography, the
- 8:14spacing, the colors, the slide
- 8:16structure, and the small details. Then
- 8:18build me a new carousel in exactly this
- 8:20visual style. Match the style, not the
- 8:22content. Do not copy their text, their
- 8:24prompts, or their handle." And then for
- 8:26the rest of the prompt, it's all the
- 8:27same. And then from that, we got this,
- 8:29which I think looks pretty damn awesome.
- 8:32So, you can see it actually recreated
- 8:34the exact same style pretty much one for
- 8:36one. So, we got the nice big bold text
- 8:38at the top, and we got the character at
- 8:39the bottom, the masked dude. But,
- 8:41obviously, it's not a realistic
- 8:43recreation. It's just a graphic
- 8:44recreation of the guy. But, I think it
- 8:46looks pretty awesome. And if we go
- 8:47through the slides, we can see again
- 8:49with these slides right here, they have
- 8:51the exact same style as the main slides
- 8:53from the reference images. And then,
- 8:55same for the CTA, but you know, the CTA
- 8:57slide is pretty basic. So, now let's say
- 8:59that you've created a carousel that you
- 9:01like, and you want to recreate that
- 9:02exact same style for future carousels.
- 9:05All you have to do is just stay in the
- 9:06same chat that you created that initial
- 9:08carousel in, and write, "Turn this into
- 9:11a skill, and for every new carousel,
- 9:13I'll give a new topic." And that's
- 9:14pretty much it. Claude will create it,
- 9:16you download it, and then for future
- 9:17carousels, you can just say, "Use the
- 9:19carousel skill and create me a new
- 9:21carousel on this specific topic." But,
- 9:23for me, I like this kind of Pinterest
- 9:25style of carousel. I think it looks the
- 9:27best out of all the carousels that I've
- 9:29made so far. So, I'm going to write,
- 9:30"Turn this into a skill, use the exact
- 9:32same style every time, include the
- 9:35reference images, and for each new
- 9:36carousel, create a new character for the
- 9:38cover. So, you know, depending on what
- 9:40you created for the carousel, you may
- 9:41have to tweak your prompt a little bit,
- 9:43just like I did right here, because I
- 9:44want a specific character. So, I'll send
- 9:47that off, and let's see when it's done.
- 9:48Okay, so Claude just finished up
- 9:50creating the skill, and it's called it
- 9:53poster prompt carousel. So, now all I
- 9:55have to do is just say use the poster
- 9:57prompt carousel skill, and create a new
- 9:59carousel for me. So, in a new chat, I
- 10:01can say use the poster prompt carousel
- 10:03skill, and create a new carousel about
- 10:05five Claude prompts that write your
- 10:07emails for you. So, let's send that off,
- 10:09and let's see how it does. And there we
- 10:11go. So, after just a couple of minutes,
- 10:14Claude came back with the fully finished
- 10:16carousel, and just take a look at this.
- 10:19This is pretty damn awesome. So, you can
- 10:21see it maintained the exact same style,
- 10:23created a different character for me,
- 10:25and all the next slides right here are
- 10:28all exactly the same, just obviously
- 10:30with the different text. And then the
- 10:32final CTA slide is exactly the same. And
- 10:34there you go. That's how you create
- 10:35carousels with the new Opus 5.5. If you
