I made my first AI advert — and had far more enjoyable than I anticipated.

This occurred throughout a workshop at Network School, run by winners from the Mumbai AI Film Festival. Went in principally curious, got here out desirous to make extra issues.

Sharing the very scrappy course of I adopted, in case it helps somebody who’s simply beginning out (like me):

First mistake / studying:
I obtained a Runway subscription for video era. Wouldn’t advocate this when you’re simply enjoying round. Burned by ~₹2k value of credit on a single 30-second video.
Great software when you already know what you’re doing. If you’re experimenting and studying, it will get costly very quick.

What labored higher for me:
Ended up getting a Freepik subscription (~₹4k for a month).
Unlimited picture era, limitless video gen on some fashions like Kling (which is actually fairly respectable), plus restricted credit for others like Veo3. Much higher playground if you wish to attempt, fail, and take a look at once more.

The tough course of I adopted:

-> Used the Chatgpt Nano Banana immediate generator to refine my immediate
-> Took that into Freepik and generated base photos
-> Used Chatgpt veo3 immediate generated to refine the video immediate, took it to Freepik (and a little bit of Runway) to show these into movies
-> Used Suno for music — added opera as a result of apparently Suno is nice at it (it’s). ChatGPT helped write the lyrics
-> Put all the things collectively utilizing the free model of CapCut

The extra I exploit AI to create issues, the extra I realise there’s actually no cause to be in opposition to AI movies. The immediate continues to be yours. The thought continues to be yours. The style continues to be yours.
Filmmaking expertise don’t disappear — they simply present up somewhere else now.
And actually? That’s sort of thrilling.

P.S.: Nutty pudding is the tremendous wholesome dessert on Bryan Johnson’s Blueprint we’ve got at community faculty on a regular basis!
