Full transcript

1. 0:00Hey everyone. In today's video, I'm
2. 0:01going to show you guys how to make a
3. 0:02coloring book using Chat GPT. If you're
4. 0:04new here, welcome. I'm Katherine
5. 0:06Westbrooks. I'm a former classroom
6. 0:07teacher and now stay at home mom who has
7. 0:09lots of different side hustles that I
8. 0:10like to pursue. So, I'm here to share
9. 0:12those with you. So, if you like passive
10. 0:13income and making money from home, then
11. 0:15be sure to subscribe so you don't miss
12. 0:16any future content. With that being
13. 0:17said, let's go ahead and share my screen
14. 0:19and get started. So, I'm on ChatGpt. I
15. 0:21do have the paid version. I think it's
16. 0:23$20 a month. For the longest time, I've
17. 0:25had the free version, ChatGpt's new
18. 0:27image generation software, which we're
19. 0:28going to use today. that made me finally
20. 0:30convert to the paid plan. So, I started
21. 0:33paying for it, I think in April. Trust
22. 0:35me, it's well worth it to just pay that
23. 0:37$20 a month. I started by asking
24. 0:38ChattPT, "What are the best coloring
25. 0:40book audiences?" And I gave it some
26. 0:42examples. So, Tatptt broke down some
27. 0:44different audiences that I can target
28. 0:46for my coloring books. And this is
29. 0:48really just to brainstorm. So, since
30. 0:49Fourth of July is coming up, I'm going
31. 0:51to do Fourth of July. Okay, so I'm on
32. 0:53Amazon now and I'm just typing in Fourth
33. 0:55of July coloring book. If you're
34. 0:56wondering what the software is right
35. 0:58here, Titans Pro, it's what I use for my
36. 1:00keyword research. This is paid. I'm
37. 1:03going to show you part of it that's free
38. 1:04in a second, but the Titans Pro version
39. 1:07is a paid software. I do have an
40. 1:09affiliate link down below if you would
41. 1:11like to get Titans Pro. I really will
42. 1:13only ever promote products to you that I
43. 1:15actually use, and this is one that I
44. 1:16really use for every book that I create.
45. 1:18I get the best keywords, and it's a
46. 1:21really great tool. So, I will have the
47. 1:22free and paid version linked down below.
48. 1:24What this does is it tells you the
49. 1:26Amazon search term, the search volume,
50. 1:28the search results, and the demand and
51. 1:30the opportunity. So, ideally, you want
52. 1:32green, green. So, I just sorted it by
53. 1:35demand right here. I click this arrow,
54. 1:36and it sorts it from either lowest
55. 1:38demand, highest demand. And then over
56. 1:40here on opportunity, I'm going to do the
57. 1:41same thing. I'm going to do highest to
58. 1:43lowest. So, now we can see it's sorted
59. 1:45by the green green. So, the highest
60. 1:48demand and the highest opportunity,
61. 1:50meaning high search volume and low
62. 1:52search results. So, I'm going to go
63. 1:53right here to coloring books 4th of July
64. 1:55because that's the highest search volume
65. 1:57and click it. Now, this right here that
66. 1:59you see, the Titans quick view, this is
67. 2:01free. If you just go to the Chrome store
68. 2:03and you type in Titans quick view, this
69. 2:06is a free Chrome extension. Okay, so
70. 2:07this gave me a five demand and then
71. 2:09eight opportunity. So, basically high
72. 2:12search volume and low search results.
73. 2:13So, it's a low competition niche. If
74. 2:16you're wondering about the product
75. 2:17details that pops up, that's part of the
76. 2:19Titans quick view extension. This Chrome
77. 2:21extension is really nice because it can
78. 2:23tell you lots of information about the
79. 2:24book from just a glance. So, this
80. 2:27independently published means that it is
81. 2:29an Amazon KDP book, meaning someone just
82. 2:31like you or I published this book. It
83. 2:33tells you the date that it was published
84. 2:35and the current rank. So, this book was
85. 2:37just published on May 6th, so not even a
86. 2:39month ago, and already is selling pretty
87. 2:41well. Now, just to give you an idea of
88. 2:42how well this book is selling, I'm going
89. 2:44to take this information and put it into
90. 2:46Self-Publishing Titans BSR sales
91. 2:48calculator. This is a free tool as well.
92. 2:50If you just go to tools, general KDP
93. 2:52tools, it's this one right here. So,
94. 2:54this book has a BSR or a bestsellers
95. 2:56rank of
96. 2:57114,700. So, I'm putting in that number
97. 3:00right here,
98. 3:01114,700. I put in how many pages are in
99. 3:04the book and the price and press
100. 3:06calculate. So, this book is selling
101. 3:07about three sales per day, a royalty
102. 3:09amount of $1.29. So, not a high royalty
103. 3:12amount, but this just shows that books
104. 3:13that are newly published can still make
105. 3:15sales. This one right here we'll look
106. 3:16at, too. 109 pages,
107. 3:21$724 356 for the bests sellers rank and
108. 3:24put in $7 for that book and press
109. 3:27calculate. So that book also makes about
110. 3:29three sales per day and then $1.90 in
111. 3:32profit, so about $6 per day. Now, it's
112. 3:35only June 2nd as I'm recording this
113. 3:36video, so it's not even 4th of July yet.
114. 3:38Now, these three top selling books for
115. 3:40the 4th of July are all aimed towards
116. 3:42kids. I'm back on ChatGpt and I just
117. 3:44said I'm creating a kids 4th of July
118. 3:46coloring book. Can you give me 50
119. 3:48coloring page ideas with the prompts
120. 3:49included? I want these images to be
121. 3:51simple and fun for kids to color. And
122. 3:52just like that, Tat is generating ideas
123. 3:55for me to use in my coloring book. So
124. 3:57now all I'm doing is I took that first
125. 3:59prompt, the smiling American flag waving
126. 4:01in the breeze. I put generate an image
127. 4:03of and then I copy and pasted the prompt
128. 4:06that it gave me and I just included
129. 4:07simple illustration outlines for kids
130. 4:09coloring book. Okay, now here's the
131. 4:11image that Chat GPT gave me and this
132. 4:13took about 20 seconds to create. Now, if
133. 4:15you don't like the face on the coloring
134. 4:16page or if you want to change it, you
135. 4:18can always just regenerate. The nice
136. 4:20thing about the paid plan is that
137. 4:21there's no image generation limit per
138. 4:23day. They do have timeouts. If you
139. 4:26generate images too quickly, it'll tell
140. 4:27you to wait a minute or two before you
141. 4:29start generating again. There's no limit
142. 4:31as to how many images per day like there
143. 4:33is with Mid Journey or other image
144. 4:34generation sites. Okay, I'm going to go
145. 4:36ahead and do the next prompt. So, I just
146. 4:38copy and pasted what I did before for
147. 4:40the first prompt, and then I'm just
148. 4:41going to add in the second prompt. So,
149. 4:44I'm just going to highlight the first
150. 4:45prompt right here. And then the bald
151. 4:47eagle wearing sunglasses and holding a
152. 4:49flag. So, here is our second image. And
153. 4:51this looks great to me. Now, if you
154. 4:53didn't like something about the image,
155. 4:55I'm going to show you how you can edit
156. 4:56it. So, if you click on the image, go
157. 4:58over here to the select tool, or you can
158. 5:00just type in right here in the box. So,
159. 5:02you can select like if I don't like
160. 5:04these clouds right here, I can select
161. 5:05it, and then I can type remove clouds.
162. 5:08And as you can see, the image is just
163. 5:10regenerating without those clouds that I
164. 5:11wanted to remove. So, it's super nice
165. 5:13with this image generation software
166. 5:15because you can give it feedback and it
167. 5:17adjusts in real time. Now, I did insert
168. 5:19this little box right here, which is
169. 5:21strange. I can easily just take that out
170. 5:23in canvas. I'm not going to worry about
171. 5:24it. But with any AI image generation
172. 5:26software, you'll have just weird things
173. 5:28that happen with different images. But
174. 5:30this is by far the best image generation
175. 5:32software that I've used. So, it's not
176. 5:34even close compared to other ones I've
177. 5:36used. I love these images the best.
178. 5:37They're the most consistent and the best
179. 5:39for coloring. Okay. So, I'm going to
180. 5:41repeat this again with another prompt.
181. 5:42Copy and paste what we did before. Going
182. 5:45to do the third prompt right here. Now,
183. 5:47it's probably a lot easier to put all of
184. 5:48this in some kind of like Google doc or
185. 5:51a note on your phone or something or on
186. 5:53your computer. So, you can just copy and
187. 5:54paste and not have to scroll up every
188. 5:55time. I'm just showing you for this
189. 5:57video, but normally I'd put this in like
190. 5:58a note on my Apple computer so I can
191. 6:00just have it side by side and I can copy
192. 6:02and paste easily. But, we'll just keep
193. 6:04doing this for the sake of the video.
194. 6:06Okay. Go ahead and press generate. Okay.
195. 6:07So, here's our next image. This took
196. 6:09about 20 seconds to create. So, not a
197. 6:11long time at all. And they're such good
198. 6:12images. So, I would just repeat this
199. 6:14process all the way through and go
200. 6:16through all of the image generation
201. 6:17prompts. But, I'm going to go ahead and
202. 6:19show you the next step to create the
203. 6:20cover. So, I'm going to download this
204. 6:22image and download the bald eagle image.
205. 6:25I don't really like the American flag
206. 6:27image. If I were actually publishing
207. 6:29this book, I would regenerate this and
208. 6:30not have the face included. But, for the
209. 6:32sake of the video, I'm just going to do
210. 6:33these last two images that we generated
211. 6:35and show you what I would do next. Okay.
212. 6:37So on Canva, I'm just creating a new
213. 6:38canvas, an 8 and 1/2 by 8 1/2 in size
214. 6:41canvas board. I chose that size because
215. 6:448 and 1/2 by 8 and 1/2 because that's a
216. 6:46popular trending size on Amazon right
217. 6:47now. And this bestselling book right
218. 6:50here that was published on May 6th is 8
219. 6:52and 1/2 by 8 and 1/2. So I'm just going
220. 6:53to go with that option. I'm going to
221. 6:55press create new design. Now I just
222. 6:57imported the bald eagle. And what I'm
223. 6:59going to do is I'm going to use the
224. 7:01magic eraser and erase this box right
225. 7:04here. That was where the cloud
226. 7:05originally was. And I don't know why
227. 7:06that box is there now. I'm going to go
228. 7:07and erase it. And now it's gone. Okay.
229. 7:09So, if you don't like something about
230. 7:11the image or chat GPT doesn't erase it
231. 7:13the way you would like it to and it's
232. 7:14easy for you to just do it in Canva, I
233. 7:16would just do that just to save yourself
234. 7:17some time. I'm going to go ahead and
235. 7:19redownload this now that it's edited the
236. 7:20way that we want. I'm going to download
237. 7:22as a PNG. Now, I'm back in chat GPT. And
238. 7:24here's what I'm going to do. I'm giving
239. 7:26it a prompt. Can you colorize this
240. 7:27image? Keep all details the exact same.
241. 7:30Now, you have to re-upload the image
242. 7:32that you want it to colorize. I've tried
243. 7:34doing it where I just ask it with the
244. 7:35image that I just generated and I get a
245. 7:37lot better results if I actually upload
246. 7:39the image. So here's my prompt and you
247. 7:41can see I just went into my files and I
248. 7:43uploaded the picture that I just
249. 7:44downloaded. So this exact picture of the
250. 7:46hat, I downloaded it and then just
251. 7:48re-uploaded it right here. Okay. And as
252. 7:50you can see after about 15 seconds, my
253. 7:53hat is being colored. Okay. So here's my
254. 7:55colored version of my hat. Now I don't
255. 7:57like how this part of the hat right here
256. 7:59is red and not white cuz it would make
257. 8:01more sense if it was every other color.
258. 8:02red, white, red, white. And I could ask
259. 8:04chatb to fix that for me, but I'm going
260. 8:06to show you an easier way that will just
261. 8:07save you time. So, I'm going to go ahead
262. 8:09and download this. And I would take it
263. 8:11over here to photo pe. It's a free
264. 8:13online version of Photoshop. This is
265. 8:15what I use to edit my images. I'm going
266. 8:16to go to the paint bucket tool right
267. 8:18here. And I'm going to select the color.
268. 8:20I'm just going to do white. So, it's
269. 8:22already selected. And then right here,
270. 8:23I'm going to click, and it's going to
271. 8:24color that section white for me. So, I
272. 8:27can adjust this if I wanted to. If I
273. 8:29wanted to do blue instead, I go over
274. 8:31right here to the color dropper or the
275. 8:32eyropper. I click on the color that I
276. 8:34want. So, if I want to do yellow, then I
277. 8:36go back to paint bucket tool. See how
278. 8:37the yellow is right here on top. That's
279. 8:39how I know that's the color that's
280. 8:40selected. And I would just click where I
281. 8:42want it to be yellow. And then if I want
282. 8:44to change color, I go back over here. I
283. 8:46click on the yellow at the bottom. I go
284. 8:48to white. Click okay. And then the paint
285. 8:50bucket tool is already selected. I just
286. 8:51click it again, and it's going to change
287. 8:52the color. Now, I think also the rim of
288. 8:55the hat should be red. So, I'm going to
289. 8:56go ahead and go to eyropper, select red,
290. 8:58and then go to paint bucket tool. The
291. 9:00red is right here on top. So, that's the
292. 9:02color that's selected. I'm going to
293. 9:03choose red for the bottom of the hat.
294. 9:05So, this color scheme I like a lot
295. 9:07better. Now, I'm going to download it as
296. 9:09a PNG and then upload that into Canva.
297. 9:12So, now you have a colorized version of
298. 9:14an exact coloring page for your coloring
299. 9:16book. Now, I'm going to do the same
300. 9:17thing for the bald eagle image. So, back
301. 9:19here, I'm going to copy and paste my
302. 9:21prompt. Can you colorize this image?
303. 9:23Keep all details the same. And I
304. 9:24uploaded the edited version from Canva
305. 9:27that we took out that square. That's the
306. 9:29image that I upload right here into Chat
307. 9:30GPT. Now, Chat GBT added some kind of
308. 9:32red band right here behind the
309. 9:34sunglasses and didn't really fully
310. 9:35connect the sunglasses right here. So, I
311. 9:37just told Chat GPT there is a band
312. 9:39behind the sunglasses that is not in the
313. 9:41image I uploaded. Please keep all
314. 9:42details the exact same. Can you colorize
315. 9:45this image? Keep all details the exact
316. 9:46same. And I'm going to see if it can fix
317. 9:48it. Okay, so this looks much better.
318. 9:50Here's my updated image. After I told
319. 9:52ChatGpt of the error that was in the
320. 9:54first image, this band behind the
321. 9:55sunglasses, I reuploaded the same image.
322. 9:58And then here's the second one that I
323. 9:59got, which looks much better. So, I'm
324. 10:00going to download this. Okay, so back in
325. 10:02Canva, we have our two images that we
326. 10:04generated. Again, for a real coloring
327. 10:06book that I was actually publishing, we
328. 10:07would have closer to 40 or 50 images in
329. 10:09total. But here's what I would do next.
330. 10:11Now, just make these a little bit
331. 10:12smaller by just resizing them. You can
332. 10:14also add a border if you want to. To add
333. 10:16a border, you would just click on one of
334. 10:18these shapes, make the color inside
335. 10:20transparent, go to stroke, and make this
336. 10:22a little bit thicker, and then you would
337. 10:24just place this around your image to
338. 10:26create a border. And then you can just
339. 10:28copy and paste that on the next image as
340. 10:30well until your book is done. Now, for
341. 10:32the cover, here are the two images that
342. 10:34be colorized. And I'm going to do
343. 10:35background remover. Okay. And then from
344. 10:36here, after you have your two images,
345. 10:38now you can change the background color.
346. 10:40Okay. Okay. So, when I removed the
347. 10:42background color, it removed the color
348. 10:44from inside of the flags, too, cuz it's
349. 10:46white. So, I'm just going to restore
350. 10:48what we erased. So, right here, I click
351. 10:51on it. I go back up to the background
352. 10:53remover and then go to restore. And then
353. 10:55I just color in the area that I want to
354. 10:57keep color. Even though it's white, and
355. 10:59it's the same with the background, I
356. 11:00want to keep this background color for
357. 11:02the hat. Okay. Okay, so now I got my two
358. 11:04images, which makes it really easy to
359. 11:05create your coloring book cover because
360. 11:07you have two actual images from your
361. 11:09coloring book to use for your cover.
362. 11:11Now, my daughter is almost up from her
363. 11:12nap, so I can't go through the entire
364. 11:14creation process for the cover and all
365. 11:16of that. There's a ton of other videos
366. 11:18you can watch on how to do the sizing
367. 11:20and everything for the cover, but here's
368. 11:22how I use chat GBT to create coloring
369. 11:24books. I start with a research tool. I
370. 11:26get ideas, and then I use ChatGpt to
371. 11:29create the images. I also use Chat TBT
372. 11:32for keywords and titles and descriptions
373. 11:34as well. I can go into that more in my
374. 11:36next video if you would like to see
375. 11:37that. But I just wanted to show you how
376. 11:39to create the images, the prompts that I
377. 11:41use, and then also how to get colorized
