0:00So, what you're seeing in front of you
0:01right now is a faceless YouTube channel
0:03that is 100% created by AI. However, it
0:07is not the standard YouTube channel that
0:08is making, you know, 20, 30 grand per
0:11month like most people try to just push
0:13up in your face. This is something
0:15completely different. So, I've already
0:17done breakdowns of, you know, channels
0:18making absurd amounts of money on
0:20YouTube, but I really wanted to break
0:22down a more fair example of how a
0:25faceless YouTube journey could look
0:26like. So this channel called Sleepy Time
0:28History, it is started within the latest
0:31month. If we take a look here, now this
0:33Thailand video is something completely
0:34else that I'll get into why they have
0:36actually posted this later on in the
0:38video. But they posted their first AI
0:40created history video one month ago. And
0:44since they posted that first video,
0:45they've already gone viral a few times.
0:47You know, 140,000 views in just 5 days.
0:51That is quite good. 125K views in three
0:54weeks. also amazing. Um, if we take a
0:57look at the analytics here, we can kind
0:59of estimate what they've been able to
1:01earn in the first month of launching
1:03their real content. The channel revenue
1:05will be wrong here. It is not 1.3K. Uh,
1:08if we actually take a look at the views,
1:10which is approximately 660,000.
1:13Um, and let's estimate the RPM for this
1:15channel as well. Since you're making
1:18super super long content of 2 hours, I
1:20would estimate this RPM to be around $5
1:23to $6. It could even be much higher, but
1:25let's just do a conservative RPM of $5.
1:28So, $660 time five. That would mean
1:32approximately $3,300
1:35that they've been able to make from this
1:37one channel within a single month. Now,
1:39those numbers themselves might not sound
1:41super impressive if you compare it with
1:43what everyone else on YouTube is just
1:45flaunting around with. Um, but if we're
1:47considering that they literally started
1:4830 days ago with their first upload and
1:50they're already monetized and earning
1:52over 3K within a single month, then
1:55that's quite impressive for a beginner
1:57just trying to get into YouTube. So, the
2:00interesting part with this is that the
2:01content is 100% made with AI. Let's just
2:04take a quick look at one of the videos
2:05so that you can get a feel for what
2:07they're actually creating.
2:08>> There's a gap in time that nobody talks
2:11about. a stretch of earth's history so
2:15vast so in d million going
2:18>> as you can see literally just AI images
2:21or images taken from online some
2:23captions an AI voice over an AI script
2:26and that is everything that they've done
2:27to put together this video which got
2:29over 140,000
2:32views. So the content is obviously going
2:35to be very very cheap to create. It's
2:37not going to run you back more than,
2:38let's say, if you use the right tools,
2:41which I'm going to show you. Let's say
2:42you're going to be run back $20 to
2:44create a video like this. And if you
2:46just run up a comparison with their most
2:48popular video here, which has got 140K
2:51views, $20 is the cost for making the
2:53video. And 140k views with a $5 RPM
2:57would be approximately $700. So, they
2:59made a $680
3:02profit from this one video that is most
3:04likely just 100% outsourced to some kind
3:06of virtual assistant as well. Now, I'm
3:08going to show you how you can create a
3:09channel like this for yourself. You can
3:11either enter the history niche with this
3:13knowledge or literally any kind of AI
3:15image niche that you want to. But I'm
3:17going to show you the entire workflow on
3:19how to generate scripts, voiceovers,
3:21images, sound effects, everything that
3:23you need to know, putting it all
3:24together in terms of the editing, best
3:27practices, everything. And you might be
3:28wondering who the hell I am and why I
3:30claim to have the credibility to tell
3:32you what is right and what is wrong in
3:34terms of YouTube automation. To give you
3:35the very quick rundown, if you haven't
3:37been on my channel before, my name is
3:39Leo. I've earned over $3 million with
3:41YouTube automation within just 3 years
3:43of getting started. I am yet to turn 22.
3:46And not only that, I've also taught
3:47hundreds of people how to start YouTube
3:50channels like this, getting some pretty
3:51sick results. And one of these examples
3:53are like Gus here in my community. like
3:55this is literally from five hours ago
3:58this update and he started his first
4:00channel what is it like 20 days ago and
4:03he's already made $12,000 with his
4:06channel. Of course, big disclaimer for
4:09anyone watching this video. This does
4:11not mean that as soon as you post a
4:12video on YouTube you're going to get
4:14rich or that you're going to make any
4:15money at all. YouTube is a very time
4:18consuming and quite hard business model
4:21to succeed with. But if you do have the
4:23right systems and the right kind of
4:24guidance, then that makes it a whole lot
4:27easier. You have to stay super
4:28consistent for, you know, potentially
4:30months or even years before you get
4:32monetized. I would rather just stay
4:34transparent to everyone watching my
4:36channel here. All right, stop. So, this
4:37is me from the future. You can also tell
4:39by the different background. So, I'm
4:41celebrating Christmas with my family.
4:43Now, I'm hosting a free live master
4:45class for anyone interested in getting
4:47into faceless YouTube uh January 3rd. As
4:50you can see here, the timer will
4:52probably be different when you click on
4:53the link um as this gets uploaded. But
4:56we will be going over everything that my
4:58students in the program are using to,
5:01you know, get crazy results like this
5:03over 2K in a single day. Um 0 to 12K in
5:0720 days of monetization. Absolutely
5:09crazy. And all of the other results, you
5:12know, getting monetized on Christmas
5:13morning, quite a good feeling. Uh but
5:16but the point is I'll be showing
5:17everything for free live. So, I'll be
5:20there to answer anyone's questions as
5:21well. If you do have any for me, about
5:23life, YouTube, business, whatever you
5:26want to ask me about, we'll do a Q&A as
5:28well. And u while there are still free
5:30tickets available, I highly encourage
5:32you to sign up for one since I don't do
5:34this often. I do this like once per like
5:37four times per year. So, once every
5:39three months or so. Um, and it's going
5:42to be very amazing. The last master
5:45class that we had some people are this
5:47the people that you see here getting
5:49these results. They attended a master
5:51class trying to learn as much as
5:53possible and it turned out to be the
5:54best decision in their life. So I can
5:57only encourage you guys to do the same
5:59since I'm not asking for anything in
6:01return. You can join for free, watch
6:03everything, learn as much as you want to
6:05then just take this information, apply
6:07this for yourself and it's going to be
6:10amazing. So yeah, if if you're watching
6:12this video and the master class still
6:14hasn't taken place yet, just sign up for
6:16a free ticket if there are any left. Um
6:19if you're watching this after the master
6:21class has happened, then uh there are
6:23other links in the description where you
6:25can still work with us. However, you
6:27will not get the same bonuses that
6:29people uh get during the masc since
6:32yeah, I'm also of course making it
6:34possible to get a very good offer for
6:37Faceless Launchpad to for everyone that
6:39that turns up since that must surely be
6:42serious people that genuinely want to
6:43learn YouTube automation. So yeah, you
6:46also get a six figure list for free if
6:48you do sign up. Kind of cool. But uh
6:50that is all. Let's get back to the
6:52video. So let's see here. Slip time
6:54history. We also have another channel
6:56that is very similar just because I
6:57wanted to show you guys multiple
6:59examples. It's called The World Before
7:01Dawn. You can check this out on your
7:02own. It's basically the exact same style
7:05kind of content, you know. See, you see
7:07here AI images just zooming back in and
7:10out, some sparkle effect. There's an AI
7:12voiceover, AI script, all the kind of
7:14stuff. It was started also three weeks
7:16ago, but they've already amassed um
7:19probably like 300k views in total, which
7:22would translate to 2K, one and a halfK,
7:24which is just a great example of people
7:26actually succeeding with this as we
7:28speak and as you're watching this video,
7:30people are out there creating AI
7:31channels and getting these kinds of
7:33results. Now, the first and one of the
7:35most important things that you have to
7:37keep in mind if you're going to start a
7:38faceless YouTube channel is to take all
7:41of the possible precautions to not get
7:43shadow. And this is why the Thailand
7:46video here is quite relevant and why
7:48they've actually done this or used this
7:50one specific channel. It is due to the
7:53fact that with pre-existing channels,
7:55meaning channels that have been on
7:56YouTube for a long time, maybe a channel
7:58that you're watching YouTube videos
8:00privately with, whether you would be
8:01watching, you know, Mr. based, whatever
8:03your favorite creator. Um, those
8:05channels that already have a bunch of
8:07watch history and are have been used as
8:11a normal user for a long time, they have
8:13a much lower risk of actually being
8:15shadowed. So, the reason why this
8:18creator have probably used this channel
8:19is because he had a channel with a video
8:23from a year back. He's also used it
8:25personally and that obviously worked
8:27really well for him as yeah, as you can
8:29tell, he was in Shadowban. third video
8:31got 34k views and that is just a very
8:33clear sign that the channel is not
8:34channel man. If you think about it,
8:36YouTube they want to um kind of kill the
8:39bots and spammers of the platform. So
8:41they will restrict the impressions of
8:43anyone that they think is a bot. But if
8:46you have been on the platform for a very
8:47long time and you have previous uploads
8:49maybe even from a long time ago then
8:51that will help you a lot in not being
8:54shadowbanned. If you are shadowbanned
8:55however it looks something like this.
8:57Many beginners have met this problem and
8:59so many people in that join my program
9:02have also faced this and it's kind of
9:03the reason why many people stop YouTube
9:06before they're actually seeing any
9:08success. So you can see I posted a video
9:09here. It's got 11 impressions which
9:12first of all that just tells me that the
9:13channel might be cooked. Um all of the
9:16impressions are from YouTube search. If
9:19we go over to views it's got one view.
9:21and why I can tell that this channel is
9:23shadowbanned just based on this one
9:25upload. Of course, having multiple
9:27uploads showing a um similar trend like
9:31this will help you really verify that
9:32it's shadowbanned, but just based on
9:34this one video to paint you the example.
9:36If you got 11 impressions and all of
9:38them are from YouTube search, then that
9:40means that your videos are not popping
9:43up on the YouTube homepage like this.
9:46YouTube is not pushing your uploads to
9:48new viewers um that might not have seen
9:51your niche or channel before. They are
9:54only pushing your uploads to people that
9:56search for your precise title in the
9:59search bar. And that means that you are
10:01shadowbanned. They're not wanting you to
10:02get new viewers. They're restricting
10:04your content from being shown. So even
10:06if you're posting the best content in
10:08the world, if your channel is
10:10shadowbanned, you will still not get any
10:12views and it will be a super frustrating
10:14time. So, I'm not going to talk about
10:16this forever, but if you do have a
10:17pre-existing channel like this guy or
10:19just a channel you've been using to
10:21watch YouTube for a very long time,
10:22using it privately, then definitely use
10:25that channel as your first one since
10:28yeah, it's going to benefit you a lot in
10:29the long term. If for any reason you
10:31don't have a channel like this, you can
10:33either start a fresh channel, just make
10:35sure to start it on a old Gmail address
10:38that you have. Do not create a new Gmail
10:40for the channel. or you can always go
10:41over to sites like this and get it
10:44YouTube channels for a price. This one
10:46is the most credible one that I've used
10:48many times before. However, there are of
10:50course many sites like this where you
10:52can just get either H1 or monetized ones
10:55depending on your budget. It doesn't
10:57really matter that much. Um, also a very
11:00good thing to keep in mind if you are
11:02starting a new channel is to not change
11:04the branding, meaning the profile
11:06picture, the name, the banner, all of
11:09that stuff. Do not customize it until
11:11you are seeing traction on the channel.
11:13I've seen this happen hundreds of times.
11:16People are posting, you know, one or
11:18two, three videos. Um, they're seeing
11:20some traction coming in and after the
11:23first video getting a bunch of views,
11:25they change the profile picture, they
11:27change the name, they change everything,
11:29and the channel just completely dies.
11:31This is not something that I can verify,
11:33but having seen it happen many times and
11:35also for myself, um I would like to
11:38think that it's a correlation between
11:40being shadowbanned and just completely
11:42switching your name, profile picture,
11:43everything at once. So, until you are
11:45seeing consistent traffic from your like
11:48fourth or fifth upload, then do not
11:50change the name. I know it's super
11:52tempting, don't get me wrong, uh but
11:54definitely do not do it. But perfect.
11:56Now that we have the boring stuff out of
11:57the way. So in order to create a video
11:59like this, you first need to start off
12:01with a script, right? And what I would
12:04recommend everyone to do if you are a
12:05beginner, you have your niche in front
12:07of you. You have your reference channel,
12:09meaning a competitor that is doing
12:11really well. You simply take their most
12:14viral video. You want to make a video
12:16about the same topic with a little bit
12:18of a twist. However, to create a very
12:21very good script with AI, first of all,
12:23we are going to use Claude. This is the
12:25best AI copyrightiting tool that you can
12:28possibly find. Chachi is great, but it
12:30is not as good as Claude simply due to
12:33the fact that for this channels, you
12:35make super super long content due to
12:38getting a higher RPM. YouTube likes your
12:40content more as well. And with Shadip,
12:42it's going to be a big pain in the ass
12:44for you to generate, you know, 30 minute
12:46long scripts, 1 hour minute long
12:47scripts, but Claude can do this very,
12:49very easily. So, first thing that you
12:51want to do is just get the most popular
12:53video on your reference channel. You
12:55know, extract the transcript through
12:57either YouTube's own transcript tool or
13:00there are of course sites online. And
13:01once you have the transcript copied, you
13:03just head over to CL, open a new chat
13:05like this, and paste in the transcript
13:08first of all. It will look something
13:09like this. And then you just write a
13:11prompt something like this. I'll just
13:12skip to when I'm done writing it. Right.
13:14So, I finalized the prompt here. It
13:15says, "I'm starting a history channel
13:17and I've attached a script to a very
13:19successful history script that I want to
13:21emulate for my own channel. Analyze the
13:24structure, facts, language, and write me
13:26a similar script on the same topic. Do
13:28not copy any sentences oneonone and keep
13:31everything original but with the same
13:33structure and information. Now, the part
13:36here, do not copy any sentences
13:38oneonone. If you do not include this
13:40part, Claude is very likely to still
13:42write a very original script, but it's
13:44going to take a exact copies of some
13:47sentences. And since we just want to say
13:50noble and we don't want to copy anything
13:51from our competitors, um I just like to
13:54include that there because um what can
13:57happen if Claude for a some reason would
13:59copy a very large segment of the
14:02reference script? Since we're dealing
14:04with AI, this can happen. And then the
14:07competitor could in reality actually, if
14:10they found out, they could strike down
14:11your video for copyright infringement.
14:13Since a script is copyright material,
14:16but rewriting a script with AI does not
14:19make you vulnerable to any copyright
14:21strikes, unless you actually copy the
14:23sentences oneonone. Um, also specify the
14:26length. Make the script 5,000 words in
14:29length. Um, I'm just making it 5,000
14:31words, which is approximately a 30
14:33minute video for the sake of the
14:34example. You can make this as long as
14:36you want to. Claude supports outputs for
14:40a little bit more than 5,000 words,
14:42probably a few thousand more, but then
14:44you will have to prompt multiple times
14:46to get the entire script done if you are
14:48making twohour long videos. But I don't
14:51want to generate the script forever. So,
14:52I'll just go with 5,000 words here for
14:54for the example. So, then you would just
14:56send the prompt. It's going to start
14:58generating you the script. You might
15:00have to do this again if you reworded
15:02your prompt weirdly. It's going to say
15:03like, "Oh, I can't copy someone else's
15:05script." Then you just have to reward
15:07your prompt kind of. But something like
15:08this should work. Now, while it is
15:11actually generating this script, um, you
15:14can utilize cloud projects. It's up here
15:17in the top left corner. It is kind of
15:18the next level of cloud usage. I can
15:21definitely make you guys a full tutorial
15:24on how to set up your cloud projects,
15:25all that kind of stuff. But what that
15:27is, it's basically a customcoded or not
15:30coded but custommade script writing bot
15:32that is specific for your channel. So
15:35you don't have to always tell Claude um
15:38you know what length you want. You don't
15:40have to tell it what kind of style you
15:41want. You simply just um customize it
15:44with a bunch of scripts from your
15:45reference channel and then it will write
15:48perfect scripts every single time. Um, I
15:50usually use it for all of my projects,
15:52but it takes a few minutes to set up, so
15:53I don't want to bore you guys out with
15:55that. I can make a full video about it.
15:57Just leave a comment down below and I
16:00will make sure to do so if I see enough
16:02demand for it. But anyways, this is
16:04taking a bit long, so I'm going to skip
16:05to when the script is actually done and
16:08I'm going to show you guys the results.
16:09And as you can see, I now have a script
16:11here. Now, I did have to change up the
16:13prompt a little bit of cam since Cloud
16:15was stuck in some infinite loop of just
16:18loading. I tried just decreasing the
16:20length of the script and also removing
16:23the line that I want to create a history
16:25YouTube channel. It eventually worked.
16:27Pretty much the exact same prompt. You
16:29can play around with the length. I'm not
16:30sure if that was the issue. Uh but I
16:32have generated scripts that are 6,000
16:357,000 words in length. For some reason,
16:37just now when I was recording, of
16:39course, it met some kind of issue. But
16:41we have the script here. As you can see,
16:44it's a full script quite long. Um there
16:47a let's just look at the hook real
16:48quick. There's a span of time that gets
16:50overlooked. A period in our plan has
16:52passed so monumentally long that it
16:54dwarfs everything humans have ever
16:56accomplished accomplished. So what you
16:59would want to do with an AI script like
17:01this is generally the whole script is
17:03you know good. You don't have to super
17:06proofread through it and make big
17:07changes. It is just the hook that you
17:10need to improve. So the first two or
17:12three sentences are the most important.
17:15They're the most important part of your
17:17video essentially. So if you can improve
17:19them, of course do since yeah, it's it's
17:21quite a high lever task considering it
17:24can make or break your video. So always
17:26use a hook that is very similar to your
17:29reference video. If we take a look at
17:31the transcript that we used here, it
17:34says that there's a gap in time that
17:36nobody talks about. And our hook was
17:38Let's actually see here what we I think
17:41is this one. there's a span of time that
17:44gets overlooked. So that is very similar
17:46that is perfect. Um and we can simply
17:48move on now to the next part of the
17:51tutorial and the next part would be to
17:53generate the AI voiceover. Now usually
17:55you would use a site like 11 Labs. It is
17:58the website that everyone on YouTube
18:00talks about and to be frank it is the
18:02best voice over platform that there is.
18:05But what many people who aren't actually
18:07doing YouTube automation themselves
18:09don't know is that there are some
18:11lesserk known sites where you can save
18:13in on a lot of money. So for example, if
18:16we look at the pricing of 11 Labs here,
18:18if I can just find that somehow, here it
18:21is. Um, you get 500,000 credits for $99
18:26per month. Um, you get here 11 million
18:29credits for $1,320
18:32per month. Now, however, there is a
18:34separate site here um where you can get
18:379 million voice credits. And keep in
18:39mind, this is the exact same quality as
18:42LM Labs, if not the same voices. I'm
18:44actually not sure, but you get it for
18:46$39. So, you're saving, you know, over
18:49$1,200 just by using this site. And I'm
18:52not going to reveal it publicly here on
18:54YouTube since I don't know for how long
18:56this will be available. And I would
18:58rather make sure that it's available for
19:00everyone in my program. But if you
19:02really do want access to the site, just
19:04leave a comment on this video if you
19:07haven't got it yet. Also, leave a thumbs
19:09up, then just take a screenshot of this
19:10as proof and just direct message me on
19:13Instagram and I will let you know what
19:15the site is called. But yeah, the way
19:18that this would work is that you just
19:19access the labs after you have loaded up
19:22a few credits into your account. You can
19:24see that I have some credits here. Um,
19:26you would choose your voice, of course,
19:28here. And I bet you that we can find the
19:31same voice as the reference channel
19:33used. Let's just take a quick look at
19:34what voice they used once more.
19:37>> The sword took its final breath and the
19:39moment our ancestors started looking
19:42remotely h.
19:43>> So this voice if you are unfamiliar with
19:45the sleepy history niche is the most
19:48used voice ever. If we just go for
19:51sleepless historian here, this is one of
19:53the super big channels in this niche. um
19:57one of the first ones as well. Let's
19:59listen to the voice that they're using
20:00>> tonight. We're heading into the Middle
20:02Ages, a time when people saw,
20:04>> as you can see, exact same voice.
20:06They're all just using the same
20:08platform. Let's try to find the exact
20:10same voice here that they are using. So,
20:12it is kind of middle-aged, I would
20:14suppose. Let's use the filters here.
20:16It's middle. It's middle-aged. Um it is
20:21English, of course. accent. I would say
20:24it's kind of British in some way. Let's
20:26just keep it British and let's see if we
20:28can actually find this voice.
20:29>> I'm Liam to all mankind the stillness of
20:32the night. The US embassy. [music]
20:34Welcome.
20:35>> So, I found this one called Christopher
20:36here. It sounds very similar. It's not
20:39the exact same, I don't think, but it
20:40sounds very good. Let's listen to it.
20:42>> I wondered lonely as a cloud that floats
20:44on high or veils and hills.
20:46>> Definitely fits the vibe of the video
20:48that we're trying to create. So, I would
20:50just choose that one. clicking it like
20:53this. There we have Christopher. It kind
20:56of looks the same as 11 Labs does as
20:57well. So, you would just don't play
20:59around with any of the settings.
21:00Definitely don't do so. Make sure that
21:02you're using the multilingual V2 or the
21:05latest model that they have. And then
21:07you can simply go back over to your
21:09script. Copy a big part of the script.
21:12Um, I wouldn't copy all of it. rather
21:14generate it in parts since if there's
21:16some very big mistake or the AI breaks
21:19um then you don't want to burn through a
21:22lot of credits of course for example
21:24let's just do this one head back over to
21:28the website paste it in credit voice
21:31confirm and you'll just see that it gets
21:33added to your timeline kind of like this
21:36I'll get back to when it's done so that
21:37we can listen to the result and perfect
21:39the voice over here is now done let's
21:41just play it out
21:42>> there's a span of time that gets
21:43overlooked a period in our planet's past
21:46so monumentally long that it dwarfs
21:48everything humans have ever
21:50accomplished.
21:51>> This might even be the exact same voice.
21:54I'm not sure. Uh but it sounds very
21:55good. You can see that the quality is
21:57great, the cadence is great, the flow is
21:59great, everything is good, and it's
22:01exactly as we wanted for our video. So,
22:03we would just go ahead and download this
22:05in the bottom right corner like this.
22:07See that is downloaded as the MP3 file.
22:10And this means that we now can move on
22:11to the next part which would be
22:13gathering the different visuals. And as
22:16you can see the reference channel they
22:18just have they just kind of go between
22:20these different images. They have some
22:22kind of fire sparkle overlay. They have
22:25the captions in jello and that is all
22:28they have for the entire video. So the
22:31images we would of course create with
22:33AI. Now a big disclaimer. If you're
22:36completely broke, you could potentially
22:38find these images online one by one. Uh
22:41but if you have a budget for it or you
22:42want unique images, then you can create
22:44them with AI to tailor them more and
22:47make your content um look more and
22:50become more engaging. So, I'm going to
22:51show you the way of things, but if you
22:54do want to find them manually, you can
22:55use a site called Pixabay um and just
22:58search up the different images that you
23:01want to. It's going to take you longer
23:02searching for them. Um, but it's of
23:05course it's free. There's no copyright
23:06to these images since they are on
23:08Pixabay, uh, which is a copyright free
23:11website. Um, yeah, I just wanted to give
23:13you guys both of the options. Right. So,
23:15before we move on, I had to switch up
23:17the location here. I very quickly
23:19traveled to my family for the holidays.
23:22But the way that you want to generate
23:23the AI images and you know keep the same
23:27style for your entire channel get some
23:29kind of um you know branded feeling or
23:32or at least maintain a very um distinct
23:35style for your images. And let's also
23:37use the reference channel as an example
23:40here. So we're going to use chat gypty
23:42to generate the image prompt here. It's
23:44going to make our life a lot easier. Uh
23:46but since we want the uh style to match
23:50whatever these guys have used kind of
23:51the illustrated um style almost we are
23:54just going to take a screenshot from
23:57their YouTube like this. Boom. Then head
23:59back over to chat and enter a prompt
24:02that looks something like this. So I'm
24:04creating images as visuals for my
24:06history channel and I need you to turn
24:08my script into prompts that can be used
24:10to generate relevant images in Leonardo
24:12AI which is the tool that we're going to
24:14use. I will also upload an image of the
24:16style that I want my own generations to
24:18follow. So, describe it in the prompt
24:20itself. Then, simply just add the photo
24:23that you just took like this. Boom. And
24:27also paste in the script from Claude.
24:30So, this is just the intro that I got
24:31from Claude. Um, that should be enough.
24:34And we're going to get a bunch of image
24:36prompts. Now, I said previously that um
24:39this will be faster than uh finding
24:41images on Pixabay. It's kind of it kind
24:44of depends how you set up your workflow,
24:46but uh t usually this will actually this
24:49might actually take longer uh than
24:51finding images on Pixabay, but it does
24:53give your channel the more kind of
24:55unique vibe to it. It feels higher
24:57effort than just taking a bunch of stock
24:59footage from Pixabay. Um, so you can
25:02completely choose yourself if you want
25:03to spend a little bit more money um to,
25:06you know, get custom images that fits
25:08your story or if you just want to use
25:10Pixabay as we talked about earlier to
25:12get all of the content for free. Of
25:15course, you do have to sit there and and
25:16gather all of the content. But you see
25:18here, Chelsea is going to generate a
25:21bunch of image prompts right here that
25:24we can then use in Leonardo. Um, so
25:26let's just take the first one. A vast
25:28prehistoric landscape blah blah blah
25:30blah blah. Copy that. Then you're just
25:32going to head over to Leonardo that
25:34looks like this. This is the kind of app
25:36itself. When you have logged in, press
25:38on image. You're going to be taken to
25:40this um kind of view. This is where you
25:43paste in your prompt in the top middle.
25:46Um, and here you have some settings to
25:48the left. And you want to make sure that
25:49these are correct in the 169 aspect
25:52ratio so that you get images that are
25:55made for YouTube the landscape um kind
25:58of frame. Make them large. If you know
26:01you can really choose yourself but if
26:03you make them large it will have more
26:04pixels. It will come out as more sharp
26:07and you know more detailed images.
26:10Number of images you can completely
26:11choose yourself. This will drain more
26:13credits. Um, so if I do paste this
26:16generation now and press on generate, it
26:18will generate four images instead of
26:20just one. So let's just keep it at four.
26:24Um, and then style. You can choose this
26:27whatever fits your style the best. We
26:29don't want cinematic. We want kind of
26:32let's see here what styles we can use.
26:35Let's just use the uh let's just use
26:39none for this example. And then we can
26:42just go ahead and generate the prompt.
26:45Uh we can also here to even go the XML
26:47also here upload the um screenshot that
26:50we took earlier as a style reference as
26:53that will really ensure that this style
26:55is correct. Um so let's just do that
26:58like this. Press on generate and I'll be
27:01back once the images are completed.
27:04Right. So the first few generations uh
27:07got done here. This is how it turned
27:08out. So, this style looks similar, but
27:11it has its own unique feeling. Um, you
27:14know, this is completely up to you how
27:16you want this style to look and how you
27:17want to brand your channel. Um, I would
27:20just go with this. I also even generated
27:22the next prompt in this series as well,
27:25which is focusing on dinosaurs. This is
27:27the same style as this one can be used.
27:30Um, but you can really change the prompt
27:32however you want to in order to, you
27:34know, change the colors, change whatever
27:36the focus in the style is. You can even
27:38use a different reference image here if
27:40you want to have it look different. Then
27:42you just go back to shadow two. Copy the
27:45next prompt. Paste it in, you know, like
27:48this. Sorry, like this. Press on
27:51generate. Then just go back, take the
27:53next one. And then you just repeat this
27:55process until you have um generated all
27:58of the prompts and you have images for
28:01your entire script. So you see this is
28:02very similar um to the actually
28:06reference image that we have. Let's take
28:07a look at that one here. You can see
28:09here that it's quite similar. So,
28:11they've just done it like this and maybe
28:13a more kind of cartoonish feeling
28:15instead of illustration. And then they
28:17just added the captions in their editing
28:20software. So, this is how you would
28:22generate images. You then just go ahead
28:24and download each and every one of them.
28:27Now, an extra tip. If you do have the
28:29credits that you want to burn, many
28:31channels what they do is that in the
28:33beginning they have an animated image
28:35instead of only the um still image to
28:39just make the content more engaging and
28:42actually hook people in better. So what
28:43you can do in Leonardo and why this is
28:45so great, press on the little icon here,
28:48generate video. Then you can see here
28:50you just have the prompt make a video of
28:52this image. generate and it will take
28:55the image that you just generated um
28:58with Leonardo previously the image and
29:00it will turn it into a video which can
29:04look quite well. You can see I've done
29:05it before here and it looks very
29:08realistic. It looks amazing. Um this was
29:11for another video tutorial that I posted
29:13on the channel. So let's see what
29:14happens here. Um you can see that it
29:16kind of just moves forward. Looks kind
29:19of weird since we have an illustration
29:21here. it wasn't really a realistic
29:23image. Um, but you're free to play
29:25around with this as you want to, of
29:28course. So, you would just go ahead and
29:31download each and every one of these
29:32images. Uh, like this. I think this is
29:35the best one. Press on download. And
29:37then I think that this is the best one.
29:41Moving on. I think that
29:43I think that this is the best one. And
29:46then, yeah, it just keeps going and you
29:48just download all of the images. Now, I
29:51mentioned this before. You can also use
29:52Pixabay. Um, let's just see here. Search
29:56for like dinosaur. Um, and you can
29:59actually mix in either images or videos
30:03from Pixabay. You can see that these are
30:05looking very modern. But if we actually
30:07go back and press on videos instead and
30:10search for um whole dinosaur for
30:13example, then you will get a bunch of
30:15different videos that you could
30:16potentially use for your own um you know
30:21content. And this will save you money,
30:24but it will also, if you do it the right
30:26way, make your content way more engaging
30:29um if you actually pay attention to the
30:30videos that you add to your content. If
30:34we even quickly go back to the reference
30:36channel here, we will see that they have
30:37some kind of fire particle effect here.
30:40>> Disaster, massive tsunamis that scoured
30:44coastline.
30:45>> You can see that there's some kind of
30:46fire particle effect even to make it
30:48better than your competitors. And what
30:50many people do is that they add some
30:52kind of campfire sound. It makes a lot
30:54of sense to this kind of uh fire
30:56particle effect as well. And for this we
30:58can actually utilize Pixel Bay since
31:01they have everything. They have music,
31:02sound effects, everything that you can
31:04ever want. Uh music, for example. Let's
31:07just search for uh fireplace
31:11crackling. For example, crackling and
31:14see what we get.
31:18That is not a fireplace crackling.
31:24Not really what we're looking for. All
31:25right. So, I actually switched over to
31:27the sound effects category and search
31:29for fireplace once again. And I found
31:31this one at the top.
31:35You know, sounds like a cozy campfire.
31:38So, we'll just go ahead and download
31:39that as well, which will be able to loop
31:41across the entire video. It's a 5 minute
31:44long audio file as well. So, that's
31:45quite good. Then, now for the last part,
31:47we need the fire particles also. For
31:50that, you go over to videos. I believe
31:52it should be. Then just enter something
31:54like oops fire particles like this. And
31:58when you search for this, you should be
32:00getting a bunch of different results.
32:02I'll just go scroll through a bunch of
32:04these and uh see when we can find
32:07something that can be used. All right,
32:08so I found this one. And honestly, this
32:10will be good enough. It does have a
32:12black background, but you can just drag
32:14down the opacity a lot and you will see
32:16only a glimpse of the particles. And
32:19there are, of course, better ways to
32:21solve this. And if you have an editor,
32:22they can make it way better. But for a
32:25kind of DIY solution, this will be just
32:28fine. So just go ahead and download this
32:30one. You know, this will do. And now at
32:33this point, if you followed all of these
32:35steps, you got the overlay, you got the
32:37music, aka the um fire crackling sounds
32:41to make it cozy. You got all of the
32:43images from Leonardo AI, maybe even
32:46videos if you've animated them. So now
32:48you should be able to put together all
32:50of this content into a video uh that you
32:53then can post on YouTube. And it really
32:55isn't harder than this to start your
32:58first channel. Now what many people do
32:59who run these big big operations is that
33:02they create systems with for example N8
33:05that can generate these images
33:07automatically. It generates the script
33:09automatically, the voice over,
33:10everything. I could show that in a
33:13separate video if you guys want. Make
33:15sure to comment and let me know. It's a
33:17quite an in-depth uh process. It will
33:20take a lot of time to create. So, I'll
33:22only do it if a bunch of you guys want
33:24to see it. Uh but let me show you how
33:26you put all of this together manually
33:28into a video. And once you have learned
33:30this process, you can actually just
33:31outsource this to a virtual assistant as
33:34well, which I'll get to in a few
33:36minutes. So, in order to put all of this
33:37together and do it the free and easy
33:39way, you just head over to Cap Cut. It's
33:42a web- based editing software. Press on
33:44create new in the top left corner. 16
33:46to9 aspect ratio as always. And here you
33:48just click to upload all of the assets
33:50that you've generated the images, sound
33:52effects, also the voice over. Um, but
33:55I'll just do so and get back to you.
33:56Great. So you can see that I've added
33:58all of the assets here now. Um, so first
34:00of all, just press on the voice over,
34:02add it like a track here. Then of course
34:05take your fire particles. You can add it
34:08as a separate track as well like this.
34:11And then you can take the actual, you
34:15know, images that you want to add to the
34:17footage. I think this one was first in
34:19line. Then you just add the next one.
34:22Then you add the next one. And you
34:24basically just repeat this process with
34:26adding all of the images in the correct
34:28order. Now, if you want to make this
34:31even better, you have a little little
34:33add a transition button here that you
34:35can see. Just press on that one. And
34:36then if you go into classic, you should
34:38be able to find black fit. And then if
34:41you press on itally,
34:42>> you'll see that it gets added between
34:43the clips. Then press on basic and just
34:45press on apply to all. So that will
34:47apply this same transition effect
34:49between every single image. It will save
34:51you a bunch of time. Now our screen is
34:53obviously black which is not what we
34:55want because this overlay thing is just
34:57covering everything. So just press on
34:59that one as well. Press on basic here in
35:01the top right corner. And then drag down
35:03the opacity. And you'll see that
35:05suddenly you have let's say your video
35:08like this. something like this. And if
35:11we play, you'll see that the fire
35:13particles will be on the screen.
35:14>> There's a span of time that gets
35:16overlooked. A period in our planet's
35:18path so monumentally long that it
35:21>> So that is how simple the video creation
35:24really is. Now, this is obviously just a
35:26kind of fasttrack version, showing you
35:28how everything is made. Then you can do
35:30each one of these steps more higher
35:32quality or worse quality if you want to
35:34by animating the images as we mentioned
35:36or adding you know pixabay uh stock
35:39footage clips also works really well.
35:41Then the last step would be to add also
35:42the fireplace loop kind of crackling
35:46sound. We should also drag down the
35:48volume of that slightly. Let's do it
35:50like this so it's in the background
35:51only. And let's play it out and see how
35:53it sounds.
35:53>> There's a span of time that gets
35:55overlooked. a period in.
35:57>> Okay, so it was not loud enough. Let's
36:00just drag it up like this. We'll see.
36:02>> Our planet's past so monumentally long
36:05that it dwarfs everything humans have
36:07ever accomplished, 300 million years.
36:10>> You see, it feels like a campfire story.
36:12And then if you want to do the last
36:14thing that will be kind of the cherry on
36:16top of the cake, you just press on
36:17captions here to the left and then auto
36:20captions. And uh here you'll be able to
36:22generate the auto captions for the
36:24entire video which you'll see here what
36:26happens. So you'll get all of the text
36:29on screen throughout the entire video.
36:31And boom, you are done. You can also
36:32even change the way that this text looks
36:35by pressing on basic up here in the top
36:38or actually presets might be. Yeah,
36:39presets. And then you can choose either
36:41one of this if you want to or you can
36:43even customize the text as you want to
36:45yourself in the u basic tab here. And
36:48when you want to set down the project,
36:50you just press on export, download, and
36:53uh make sure that the settings are the
36:55highest they possibly can be. And
36:57before, then just export. And that's
36:59done. Now, the reason why I'm not doing
37:01a super in-depth video for the tutorial
37:03is because I really want you guys to
37:04understand that your job is not to sit
37:07there and make these videos yourself,
37:09spending hours on that. So, you should
37:11just learn the process and become very
37:13good at it. you know experiment with
37:15your own unique editing touches or
37:17whatever for your own niche but then you
37:19should outsource this to a virtual
37:21assistant. Now with this AI channels why
37:24they are very very costefficient and
37:26convenient is first of all the process
37:29that I showed here it cost you very very
37:31little money if you compare it with what
37:33you would have to do in the past hiring
37:35freelancers. Now you can do all of this
37:37with AI very easily and it's going to
37:39cost you basically nothing. And then
37:41when you want to automate this and
37:43actually turn your channel into, you
37:45know, something like this where they can
37:47post very very long videos. Let's see
37:49how often they post. They post one and a
37:51half hour videos every single day. Uh
37:53which would require you to put in a lot
37:55of work uh with the stuff that I showed
37:57you in the tutorial to make it happen.
37:59These guys are also posting um maybe
38:03even twice per day it seems. And they're
38:04posting over one hour video, one and a
38:07half hours. And for you to be able to
38:08actually match this and follow the same
38:10strategy, you would need to outsource
38:12the content production to someone else
38:14that can just sit there and do this day
38:16in and day out. And to spare you guys a
38:18bunch of time and money, they are not
38:20hiring editors to, you know, edit this
38:22content professionally and um cost you a
38:25bunch of money. What these guys are
38:27doing and what is working really really
38:29well is that they are just hiring a
38:31virtual assistant from something like
38:33Upwork. So, you can see here, this is a
38:36job post that I made a month ago or two.
38:38Um, I basically just wrote in my job
38:40post. Let's see if we can see the job
38:43post itself. Uh, yeah. So, we're looking
38:45for full-time virtual assistants to help
38:46with creating and posting content on
38:48YouTube. Um, you know what you'll do. I
38:51just mapped out all of the stuff that
38:53they will do. Upload and schedule
38:54videos. Create videos using our own
38:56custom tool. Um, so there's no custom
38:59tool really. It's just the process that
39:01I just showed. And yeah, I just compile
39:04everything that I've gone through in
39:05this tutorial or even make a t tutorial
39:08like this yourself for your freelancers
39:10and then just provide that to the
39:12virtual assistant that can complete this
39:15work for $5, even less here, $3 an hour
39:19some of them will work for. And uh in
39:22one hour you can potentially get done
39:23with a entire video or half a video. So
39:26you would pay someone let's say $7 um if
39:31you're coming with three times two seven
39:33$67
39:34um for a single video including all of
39:38the tool costs. So you can in theory get
39:40away with you know $10 $15 total for a
39:43single one and a half hour video and
39:45that I can tell you is very very cheap
39:47if you compare to what YouTube
39:49automation used to cost just a year ago.
39:52So we've come a very long way in in
39:55terms of using AI and making it super
39:57super costefficient and that is why it's
40:00working really really well for me for
40:02all of the people in my program and for
40:04many other people who have been early to
40:06just integrating AI into their strategy.
40:09Now, when you've hired your freelancer
40:11here or your virtual assistant um and
40:14you're actually scaling up to multiple
40:16channels or a bigger team that you it's
40:18going to be crucial that you set up
40:20these systems and these SOPs in a very
40:22structured manner and actually have a
40:24good workflow. Otherwise, everything
40:26will just burst into chaos and you'll
40:28you'll get a big headache from having to
40:31to fix all of these things and actually
40:32be in the business, you know,
40:35extinguishing fires all the time. So,
40:37I'm not going to talk too much about
40:39this because it's not too relevant for
40:40everyone of you watching this content
40:42that are beginners, but this is my
40:45upcoming software. We just launched the
40:48uh private beta. So, think of all of the
40:50regular tools, Trello, Discord, Slack,
40:53you know, sending payments to
40:54freelancers, everything will be in one
40:56platform. Um, so it's going to be great.
40:59I'm using this myself and it's saving me
41:01tens of hours every single month. Um,
41:03you can read more about it on
41:05cloudboard.com.
41:06But yeah, it's not too relevant for you
41:09guys as beginners. So rather put this on
41:11your memory and when you do scale up and
41:13have a bigger team, this can become very
41:16very interesting for you. Nonetheless,
41:18you can sign up to the beta weight list
41:20and you'll be notified when we launch
41:23either way. Uh but I just wanted to
41:25mention it because it genuinely will
41:26save you a bunch of time and money um if
41:28you are approved for the tool. But once
41:31again, I can't promise that you guys
41:33with small teams will be approved as
41:35we're looking for big agencies, big
41:38teams that have, for example, 15 plus
41:41freelancers. Uh those are the main
41:44clients that we're working with at the
41:46moment. Now, a last thing and to once
41:48again explain why these channels are
41:50performing so so great is like I've
41:54probably mentioned this already, but you
41:56can see that all of them are posting one
41:58and a half hour long videos. um all of
42:00them are posting very very often and
42:02this kind of strategy actually makes a
42:04lot of sense if you just think about it.
42:06So YouTube as a whole they just want you
42:09as the creator to keep the viewer on
42:12their platform for as long as possible.
42:14And psychologically, if you are creating
42:16a twohour long video or a one-hour long
42:19video in relation to if you were be were
42:21to be creating a seven minute video, it
42:24will be a lot easier for you to get a
42:26viewer to stay on the platform for as
42:28many minutes as possible with the 1 hour
42:31video. Because someone who starts
42:32watching a video if like they see the
42:34timeline at all times how much they've
42:36progressed through it and they're
42:38without them realizing it they're very
42:40inclined to watch your video for longer
42:43than if it was just a 7 minute video. So
42:46by people having access to a very very
42:49costefficient workflow with AI they're
42:52able to create much longer content
42:54spending less money than what you would
42:57need to spend to create seven minute
42:58videos in the past. And that's why there
43:00all of these channels are kind of
43:02exploiting uh the fact that their
43:04competitors haven't been able to achieve
43:06this yet. So all of these different
43:08slipper history channels, you'll see
43:10that they're posting super super long
43:12videos. That is due to it just
43:14performing better. And also just as a
43:17bonus on top of this, it can boost your
43:19RPM by almost 2xed. So you could be
43:23creating the exact same content but just
43:25making it longer. And that way you earn
43:27double the amount of money or triple
43:29even in some cases from just having a
43:31much longer video length. And lastly,
43:33the reason why they are posting so so
43:36often, this is also just a byproduct of
43:38them using AI. So before posting a 1 and
43:42a half hour video every single day, that
43:44would require you to have a quite a big
43:46team which would drain you a lot of
43:48money and resources first of all, but
43:50it's very hard for you to manage this
43:52big team and keep sticking to this
43:54schedule. Now with AI, since it has
43:57become so easy and anyone without any
43:59kind of knowledge can create this kind
44:01of content, it it it's made it so much
44:04easier for everyone to stick to a one
44:05upload per day schedule with super long
44:08content. So by uploading once per day,
44:10you first of all get so much more data
44:13to to reiterate on. So you'll much
44:15faster hit your first viral video since
44:18you're just naturally uploading more and
44:20it's easier for your channel to get
44:21picked up by the algorithm as YouTube
44:24they want you to upload as much as
44:26possible initially as long as you're not
44:28spamming the platform. They want to see
44:30an active channel that is just uploading
44:32all the time. So that's the kind of
44:34current meta with these AI channels and
44:36why I'm making so much content about
44:37them. Like this is the strategy that
44:39I've done myself. It is the reason why
44:42I've been very successful with YouTube
44:43automation and I just know that it can
44:46be very feasible for beginners to get
44:48into since the barrier to entry is so so
44:52low. Keep in mind this will not be
44:54around forever. This possibility is just
44:56the first people that learn AI and
44:59really put their their minds to it to
45:01start channels that are successful. But
45:03for those of you guys that are watching
45:04this video and genuinely applying this
45:06knowledge and trying to learn more,
45:08trying to figure out how you can make it
45:09even better for your own niche and
45:11channels, this will be invaluable. Now
45:14guys, I'm not going to make this video
45:15too long. If you want me to show a full
45:17tutorial on how you can automate all of
45:20this with NAN and basically just make it
45:22a one-click automation. You enter your
45:25video topic and everything gets created
45:27what we've done here manually. then let
45:29me know in the comments because I can
45:31definitely make that. It just requires a
45:33bunch of work really to set it up. Um
45:35but I can do it if you guys want to see
45:37it. Apart from this, if you like to
45:39class yourself as a creative person and
45:41you think YouTube automation and this AI
45:43opportunity is very interesting um that
45:46I would like to share with you some very
45:47important news that are coming up. You
45:49have a very good opportunity in front of
45:51you that is completely free that I just
45:54want to share with you. So, I have a
45:56program called Faceless Launchpad where
45:58we basically just do everything that I
46:00talk about here on YouTube except we
46:02provide people with coaching and the
46:04resources needed to to really guarantee
46:06that you succeed. You know, Sav here
46:08like I couldn't make this up. This is
46:09posted from Savior here but monies on
46:11Christmas morning. That's kind of cool.
46:13You see that results just go on and on
46:14and on. Ashton here as well. interview
46:17coming out with Aston really really soon
46:20of how he's been able to achieve his
46:22results very fast with YouTube. I think
46:25we have more here like Gus, he made 12K
46:27in his first 20 days of monetization.
46:30Pretty cool. Over $2,000 in a single
46:33day, which is absolutely crazy. So, the
46:35whole strategy that all of these
46:37students are using and that I'm using
46:39myself, I'm actually going to be going
46:41over that in a free master class, like a
46:44free training that I'm hosting live with
46:46me sitting there answering everyone's
46:48questions, just sharing everything with
46:49my strategy for free um in six days as
46:52of recording this right now. So, it
46:54might be even shorter. It's going to be
46:56January 3rd. Um, it might be even
46:58shorter when this video is coming out or
47:01perhaps you're watching this video after
47:02the mass class has taken place. But if
47:05it still has not happened while you're
47:06still watching this video, you know,
47:08grab your free ticket while they are
47:10still still available. I'm going to be
47:11going over everything. You also get a,
47:14you know, six figure niche list as
47:15you're signing up to the event for free.
47:17I don't ask for anything in return. So
47:20yeah, sign up if you want to learn more
47:21about AI channels and how we make it
47:23work. also a little more about the
47:25faceless launchpad program that I'm
47:27hosting since on the master class for
47:30everyone that is interested. I will also
47:32be giving a very very interesting offer
47:35um for the people that want to take this
47:37very seriously and actually get into
47:39YouTube. And if it's already happened,
47:41you can just check another link in the
47:42description. You can work with us still
47:44in the program. However, you will not
47:46get the masterclass benefits, but that's
47:49completely fine because it will still
47:50help you uh grow on YouTube nonetheless.
47:53So, that is all for this video.
