Welcome to the Live Demo!

The presenter introduces a live demonstration of how to use ChatGPT to streamline YouTube content creation. They express excitement about using AI to handle tasks like generating titles, tags, and thumbnails, which previously took hours. The presenter introduces their "unpaid intern" (ChatGPT) that never sleeps or complains and handles 80% of the work. The session will cover using ChatGPT for video ideation, titles, SEO descriptions, chapter markers, tags, and thumbnail suggestions.

Why I Use ChatGPT for Content Creation

The presenter shows their ChatGPT window and emphasizes that the key to success with ChatGPT is providing enough information in the prompts to get the desired results. They start by asking ChatGPT for five YouTube video ideas for upcoming live streams, specifying that they go live every Tuesday night at 9:00 p.m. Eastern. ChatGPT generates ideas such as "YouTube Growth Hacks I Wish I Knew Sooner," "Is AI Ruining or Saving Content Creation?", and "The Perfect Video Hook."

How I Brainstorm YouTube Video Ideas with AI

The presenter mentions planning an episode about YouTube chapters and their benefits. They ask ChatGPT for titles related to this topic, and ChatGPT suggests titles like "Why You Must Use Chapters in Your YouTube Videos Seriously" and "YouTube Chapters Help Viewers and Boost Watch Time." The presenter notes that ChatGPT can also create a YouTube episode outline, including what chapters are and their benefits.

Generating Catchy Video Titles with ChatGPT

The presenter plans to select a favorite title from the suggestions and asks ChatGPT to recommend the best title for their channel out of the five provided. ChatGPT suggests "YouTube chapters help viewers and boost watch time." The presenter then reviews a list of topics to cover, including refining ideas for shorts, tutorials, and SEO-focused content.

Writing SEO-Friendly YouTube Descriptions

The presenter asks ChatGPT to create an SEO-friendly YouTube video description using the chosen title. ChatGPT generates a description, a template, and hashtags. The presenter explains that they copy this content into a Google Doc to review and refine it.

Creating Timestamped Chapters Automatically

The presenter copies the title, description, and hashtags into a new Google Doc. They then ask ChatGPT to provide a comma-separated list of tags for the video, which they also copy and paste into the document. The presenter mentions that ChatGPT can write a script, although they don't use that feature often. They then address the creation of timestamped SEO chapter titles, noting that ChatGPT doesn't do a great job transcribing videos.

Generating Comma-Separated YouTube Tags

The presenter answers a question about whether YouTube now supports chapters without an external app, clarifying that they are specifically using ChatGPT for this process. They mention that they are using the paid version of ChatGPT but believe everything they are doing should work on the free version as well. The presenter addresses a question about creating timestamps, assuring the viewer that they will demonstrate this process.

Reviewing YouTube Thumbnails with ChatGPT

The presenter explains that while ChatGPT can suggest descriptions, they will read through and refine them. They mention additional options like creating a shorter version for a pinned comment or optimizing for email or ConvertKit promotion. The presenter transitions to showing how to create chapters and timestamps, reiterating that ChatGPT struggles with transcribing.

Real-Time ChatGPT Prompt Demonstration

The presenter shares their screen, showing MacWhisperer, a tool they use for transcribing videos. They explain that while YouTube can create transcripts, it takes 12-14 hours. They export the transcript as an SRT file and then create a new chat in ChatGPT. They instruct ChatGPT to create SEO-friendly chapters for the best eight moments of the video using the timestamped transcript.

Time-Saving AI Tools for Creators

The presenter uploads the SRT file to ChatGPT and asks it to provide channel markers for the video description. ChatGPT generates the markers, which the presenter can then copy and paste into the video description. They emphasize the importance of instructing ChatGPT to make the chapters SEO-friendly to improve their quality.

Pros & Cons of Using AI for YouTube

The presenter returns to their list, noting they have covered engaging topics, SEO-friendly descriptions, keywords, and channel markers. They then ask ChatGPT to provide a hook for a video about YouTube chapters. ChatGPT generates a hook, which the presenter refines to be shorter and punchier for the first 10 seconds of the show.

How to Customize ChatGPT Prompts

The presenter displays the refined hook and reiterates the covered topics, including titles, video hooks, SEO-friendly descriptions, channel markers, and comma-separated tags. They transition to discussing thumbnails and ask ChatGPT to create a thumbnail mockup for the video.

Integrating ChatGPT into Your YouTube Workflow

The presenter acknowledges that generating thumbnails can take time and shows an example of a thumbnail created by ChatGPT, noting that it often doesn't accurately represent them. They then demonstrate how they use Canva to create thumbnails, incorporating brand colors and elements. The presenter uploads a thumbnail to ChatGPT and asks for suggestions on how to improve it.

Q&A: Answering Live Viewer Questions

The presenter addresses questions from the audience, including whether using B-roll from ChatGPT requires marking the content as altered. They clarify that they use cartoon-like images and don't modify humans in the videos, so they don't consider it altered content. They also discuss using prompts in Canva and share that they prefer using ChatGPT for most tasks.

Final Thoughts and Next Steps

The presenter continues refining the thumbnail based on ChatGPT's feedback, adjusting text, colors, and layout. They demonstrate how they iteratively upload new versions of the thumbnail to ChatGPT to get further suggestions. The presenter also shows how to use ChatGPT to create a YouTube video player mockup to include in the thumbnail. They discuss using ChatGPT to create a loose script and teleprompter version for the video. The presenter shares that they will put all their prompts in a text file for people to download. They emphasize that the magic is in the prompts and giving ChatGPT enough information to learn the user's style.

I used to spend hours, hours coming up with titles and tags and thumbnails for my videos on YouTube. I have used TubeBuddy and I've used ChatGpt and I've used Keywords Anywhere. And so now I'm going to show you how my unpaid intern, my unpaid intern never sleeps. It never complains. And they might be better at YouTube than I am, but it's taking care of 80% of the work that I have to do when I'm doing my YouTube channel. And so let's get started. We're going to talk about Tech Trollmaker presents Chad GBT content creation checklist. We're going to talk

0:47 about how to supercharge your stuff. So let's take a look. All right. So, here is my list. So, we're going to demo. All this is going to be demoed tonight. Uh, I think I am peeking. Let's see. Peek, peek, peek, peek, peek. Nope. Seems to be going fine. So tonight I'm going to talk about how to use chat GBT for ideation, video ideation, titles and hooks, creating SEO friendly video descriptions, creating chapter markers for your video, creating tags for your video, and then as a bonus, if you stick around to the end, I'm going to show you how to get chat GBT to tell you what your thumbnail should look like and to tell you, you know, just amazing stuff. And then the other part is we're going to create scripts and and we're going to create scripts and teleprompter chapters. So if

1:34 you use a teleprompter, then we're going to help you with that as well. So this is a great night to be here because I love chat GBT. So let's let's make some magic happen. All right, you ready? You ready? You ready, Freddy? All right, let's go. Chat GPT. Okay, here we go. So this is my chat GPT window. And so I can go in here and look, it's not about the prompts anymore. It's about giving it enough information to get what you want back. Okay. Uh, give me five YouTube video ideas. I can use for my live streams in the coming live stream in the coming weeks. I go go live every Tuesday

2:26 night at 900 p. p.m. Eastern. And then, hey, I go out there then and I say, hey, go give me ideas for live streams. So, it's going to give me, hey, here's YouTube hacks I wish I knew sooner. And let me bump up the font here. I want to make sure you guys can see this. Make text bigger. Make text bigger. Okay. Hopefully you can see that an amazing size there. All right. Hopefully hopefully hopefully you're seeing it. All right. So, YouTube growth hacks I wish I knew sooner. Share practical lessons. Three things that work. Two things that are a waste of time. What are you doing? Is AI ruining your cont saving it? Hey chat GBT, we're working together tonight. Don't don't don't sabotage us. The perfect video hook.

3:14 Let's write some together. Let's fix your channel. Live channel reviews, no snark. And 30 days of content isn't worth it. You want me to build an outline, thumbnail ideas, title, description, these Chad GBT can do all this. Now, um I'm going to do this. I want to do a an episode next week about chapters in the YouTube uh video description and how they benefit the community and the creator. Boom. So, I already have an idea thought of. So, here's one. Perfect title for Tuesday night. Here, it gives

4:00 me titles right off the bat. Hey, here's some titles you might like. Live stream title ideas. Why you must use chapters in your YouTube videos. Seriously. Um, YouTube chapters help viewers and boost watch time. Stop wasting time. Add chapters to your videos. It can do it can do a YouTube episode outline for me. It could say, "Hey, here's some what are chapters." And it'll talk about what chapters are. So, this is what I'm going to do next week's episode on, by the way. But, let's let's go through and let's build out the show. And this is like everything it comes up with. So, that's great stuff. All right. So, here's what I'm going to do. So, I'm going to go through these titles and I'm going to pick my favorite. Uh, and I will I will literally ask it of the five titles suggested. Which do you think is the

4:48 best for my channel? And this is important because me and Chat GP spend a lot of time together. So it's good that it learns. Yeah. So it says, okay, it thinks YouTube chapters help viewers and boost watch time. So I don't know if I'm thrilled with that, but okay. Here we go. So first thing I'm going to say is all right. So let's go back. This is a list of things we're going to talk about here. And the next one's going to be ta ask if five video type. So we did that. We can refine ideas for shorts, tutorials, SEO focus, that type of thing, you know. So we can do video ideation with chat GBT. Then we can talk about titles and hooks. So it gave me five titles and I

5:36 could ask ask it also for a bold video hook. So let's go and back. Okay, here we go. All right. uh using that title create for me an SEO friendly YouTube video description. So here I could say hey create my video description. Suddenly my eyes are all da da. Okay. So then here it does. It'll create this is my video description. So I can literally go and I can take this and paste it in

6:22 and if I like this and it even create me a template. Hey, you know here. So this is all the stuff and then I will go and create a Google doc and I will paste this stuff in it and I'll go look and say okay let me think. Do I like this? And then it also gives me uh it gives me hashtags. And then I'm going to say give me a comma separated list of tags for this video. Okay, it will give me a list of tags for the video. Okay, then I literally can go and copy these tags and paste them. So here we're going to do this. Let me go open

7:07 up new doc. All right. So, I got a brand new Google doc. Let's go share my Chrome so you can see that. Tada. Let's see which side of Chrome I'm on. Oh, yeah. Good. All right. So, I'm gonna go back in here. And so, I'm going to copy the title. [Music] So, I asked it what title what titles it thought I should do. So, I'm gonna copy that content and I'm gonna paste it here. Trophy. All right. There we go. So, I'm gonna take this right here. Copy. I'm going go up here

7:55 and Oops. Nope. Wrong one. Click here. All right. I'm going paste that in there. There's my title now on the document that and then I'm going to go and then it said, "Hey, uh, it wrote me a a description." So, I'm going to go copy that. Okay. So, there's my description. Of course, it went and did all these uh command Z. Stop that stuff there. Okay. All right. So, I paste that in. That's my description for next week's probably probably for next week's video. I'll probably do some more refinement. Then going back to my chat GBT here. You see here's my tags. I said give me a commaepparated list of tags for this

8:42 video. Give me all my commaepparated tags for this video. I'll go copy and then I'll go over here to my Chrome sharing and I'll go and take the mouse. Where'd it go? Go back mouse. There we go. All right. Paste it in. All right. So, I'm pasting. Those are my tags that I can paste in for my video when I go and I create the entry for it. All right. So, there's that. Now, let's go back through here. So we have got we had three to five engaging topics. Okay. Um it wrote me an SEO friendly description. It gave me

9:27 keywords, values, call to action. Now let's see. I can take it. It can I can have it write a script if I wanted to. I don't do that very often, but I can do. So request timestamped SEO chapter titles. Okay, here's the catch for that. Chat GBT does not do a good job. Okay. Um, it does not do a good job of transcribing your videos. I've tried it a bunch of different ways and it doesn't do a good job. So, it always makes me happy. So, um, I got a couple questions out here. So, let's uh let's go and and do some shout outs here and see what everybody's talking about tonight and then we'll get back into the mix. The image of you on the thumbnail, Roy,

10:13 is more accurate than before. That is true. I used Sora on chat GBT and I gave it some images of me. I gave it multiple photos of me and said create an animated looking image of me and it did a good job. Good evening friends. Kind of wild one. Hello guys from Colorado. Hello. Hello. Hello. Mommy god. Hey kind of wild. Oh yes. Chapters can YouTube do now without an external app? Uh, so I think you're talking I don't LA confirm with me. Are you asking I'm I use I'm doing this specifically with chat GPT. So chat GPT is my magic but I'm dropping my Vid IQ and I'm dropping my TubeBuddy. Uh, yeah. O chat is this. So I'm doing this on the paid version.

10:59 It could be everything I'm doing works on the free version, but I don't have any way of knowing because I've been on a paid version for so long. Hey Florence, how you doing tonight? Hey Florence, my internet stopped a bit so I didn't see how you created the time stamps. I don't worry, I haven't done that yet. I'm going to show you. It made some suggestion for time stamps, but we're not going to do that. I will I will show you this. I will show you all that. So you will you will get all the information. Hey, how you doing, Phillip? How you doing, sir? Welcome, welcome, welcome. All right, so I'm going to go back to my chat GBT screen. Okay. So, here I have my comma separated list. So, so it this is the description that's suggested. Um, and so yeah, I

11:44 mean I like this pretty well, but I'm going to go read through it. It says, "Hey, do you want a shorter version of your p for a pin comment or optimize for email or convert kit promotion?" Yeah. So, that's that's the kind of stuff I could do later. All right. So, here's I want to show you this magic. So, I could have it um here. I'm I'm going to come to this. This is uh I'm gonna have it I'm going to show you how to do chapters and timestamps. So, here's the catch. As I mentioned, um it does not do a very good job with transcribing it for you. I have tried different ways to submit it. Um whatever your method of using to do transcribing, let me see me present my whole screen. Okay, here's my whole screen. And this is Mac Whisperer. So,

12:32 whatever you use, if you have a service, if you're using um you know, one of the services to describe it, or you can let YouTube do its transcript, it'll do it the next day. I've gotten impatient, so I'm doing it this way. But if after you do your live stream, if after you do your live stream, you wait for it to do a transcript and then you go on you tweak it a little bit. You can take that text with the timestamps and paste in the chat GBT and get your chapters. And let me show you though because it'll write crappy chapters if you don't tell it how. So let me talk you through that. But here's what I'm going to do. I'm going to back to whole screen. And so here's what have you used for transcripts. I've gotten impatient. So

13:19 I'm gonna go and I'm gonna go to my video from last week that I did. Um or here we go. I did this crazy thoughts video. So I'm going to go ahead and have it transcribe it. And so Mag Whisper is going to go and and transcribe it for me. And it's usually pretty quick. So, all right. So, it does this. Now, again, you can use the transcripts that YouTube creates for you, but it takes 12 to 14 hours for before that shows up usually, depending on. Okay. All right. So, here it is. And so, I go and I say

14:05 export as SRT file. Okay. So, export SRT file and I'm just going to drop it in my downloads and save now. There. All right. Now, we're going to go to chat GBT. So, now I have that SRT file and and we'll go take a look and I'm going to create a new chat. I'm do a new chat and I'm gonna say using this transcript, using this timestamped transcript. Create SEO

14:51 friendly chapters for this video of the best eight moments. Okay, I don't want if it's a two and a it's a two minute and 12 second video for this for this example. So, it's too short. If it like an hourong p uh you know, one of my normal live streams, then I would have it go through and do the whole thing. All right. So, I'm going to go to downloads and here's that SRT file. Um, and I'm going to say open. All right. So, it has the file and I'm gonna say give me friendly chapters for the best eight moments of this video. All right. And

15:37 then I go boom. Okay. Uh, see it says, "Yeah." And it will take, it will go through and create what it thinks are the best eight months. And then it says, "Hey, okay. So, give me just the channel markers to post in my video description. Okay. Oops, it blew up. Oh no. Retry. Here we go. That is weird. Hopefully not having

16:23 network issues. That would make me sad. Does chat GPT only blow up when I'm doing a demo? Just like the busiest time of night or something. That's when it's going to blow up. Okay, there it goes. So then it puts them into a paragraph like into a box for me. And then I can just choose. Look, my fat head's in the way. So let's uh let's go left GBT. There we go. Move my head. All right. So I can just copy this and then I can paste this into my channel description at the bottom or wherever you want to paste it. So, there are your chapter markers for your video and they're better written than normal because if you just go in there and say, "Give me the top eight moments," it will literally take a snippet of what you said and that's what it did. It doesn't

17:09 put any effort into find making that prettier. And so, I do it this way and I say, "Make sure they're SEO friendly." And so then it spits out my channel markers and then I can go paste these into the channel description for my video. And that is how you can do that. Now let's go take a look. I have a list. Did I do everything yet? All right. So let's go back to my original live stream content ideas here. Okay, great. So I got this. Okay. Give me a hook for this video. Now, I'm going back to the idea of doing a video about YouTube chapters. So, next Tuesday night, heads up, I'm going to do

17:55 a video about YouTube chapters and why they are so important. Okay. So, I'm going to say, "Give me a hook for this video." Sure. Here's a hook. Uh, it's okay. I may have to refine that one. But it says, "If your viewers are scrubbing through your video looking for good stuff, you're losing them. But there's a simple fix. It's called YouTube Chapters. Let me show you how to use them to keep people watching longer and boost your channel's performance. Okay. Would you like a shorter version for the first 10? Yes. Give me a shorter version. A shorter punchier for the first 10 seconds of my show. All right. So, there. Absolutely. So, here's a shorter

18:42 struggling to keep viewers watching. Yeah, there you go. So, there's my hook. So, then I'm going to go back to my screen over here and the hook. Blip. All right, there we go. Strong to keep viewers watching. YouTube chapters might be the secret weapon. Let's fix your watch time starting now. So, that's the hook for next week's show. I know you guys are getting all the information early. It's all good, right? Okay. So, should make that bigger so you guys can see it. Let's go. Bloom bloom. There we go. All right. So, you can see it now a little bit better.

19:27 Hopefully. Hopefully, it's bigger. Looks bigger on my screen. So, all right. So, hopefully you see that better now. Okay. So, there's my hook. So, I did three engaging titles. I asked for video hook. I did an SEO friendly video description with a call to action in it. I did channel markers. I showed you how to do it two ways. Take the transcript that YouTube creates or use some utility that will create you a timestamped transcript for you and then you take that and you paste it into Chad GBT. You you attach that file and say give me SEO friendly channel markers. decide. For some reason, for hourlong videos, I do

20:13 13 titles, 13 chapters. I don't know why. It's just a thing. Unless I think it's got like a lot of stuff. And then I showed you how to do commaepparated tags. Okay. And now, let me show you the magic it can do with thumbnails. So, you know, you're all saying, "Hey, I know that I can do Let's do right chat GP." There we go. All right. So, back over here. All right. Create me a thumbnail mockup. You think? Mockup for this video. Okay. Now, this probably takes the paid version to get it to come out

20:58 in a timely manner. Otherwise, it may take forever. It doesn't do a very good job of seeing what my So the timestamp is based on the trans transcript. So no need for the actual video. Yeah, you take the you take the timestamped transcript and you paste that you you upload that into chat GPT and you say create me chapters. Okay. Getting your feedback on a newer version of chat GPT. Okay. Sure. Let's see what I get. It doesn't do full-size thumbnails, by the way. even when I tweak it and say, "Give me a full-size thumbnail." So, um, plus, for some reason, Chad GPT doesn't like me to have a beard. I don't know why. It wants me to wear glasses,

21:44 too. I I don't know why it wants me to wear glasses. And it it, you know, it's Yeah. And you can do all this in the web browser version of chat GBT. I just have gotten used to having it running in the app. Oh, there's a guy with a beard. Okay. But he's wearing glasses. I obviously need to get glasses. I don't wear contacts. I have somehow still able to see. Okay. Um Okay. I mean, it's kind of all right. Maybe. I don't know. What do you think?

22:30 So, you know, click on this one. It always seems to cut words off. So, I can never use these thumbnails it gives me. And plus, I don't like it because it has somebody else in it. Wow, you're thinking really [Music] hard. This must be the busiest time of night for chat. GT. I swear every time I do a video about chat GPT, it it it takes a little bit of a nap while I'm working. So, I tell you what, while I wait on that magic happen, let's shout out to you guys and see how you guys are doing. So, yeah, some more. Hi, Phillip. Hey, Phillip. Hi, [Music] La. Hello. How are you? Hey, Laura.

23:19 Laura. Hi, Mommy. God. So tam time stamp you based on the transcript. So new need for flag. Yeah, here's a catch. You can't load you can't upload a video into chat GBT. There seems to be a 100meg limit. Who the heck can get a uh even a 1080p video under 100 meg these days? So I am I am using it to create B-roll images. Yes, I have not started doing um videos, but I am using chat GPT. So, if you looked at my ADHD video, all the graphics in that video I did in chat GBT. I wrote a prompt that said create me this. Um, do you have like a suggested

24:06 nice and effective prompts for specific things like content creators for use in chat? Because sometimes if you don't use the right prompts, it will it gives you the wrong answer. Yeah, that's that is true. Um, I would gladly share all my attempts at prompts. Um, so let's go back to chat GPT. I don't know. I like this one because it's my color. There we go. Okay. It's horrible, but so I will say uh this is interesting. Copy image. I don't know. Anyway, so then what I do, here's where it gets interesting. Let's do Chrome sharing. Tada. Okay, I'm back over here and I'm going to here and I'm going to say I want a YouTube

24:54 thumbnail, you know, and I will go through and upload. I will go here and my brand color is cosmic blue. And then I will go and it's cutting off part of the screen. So, let's move it over here. Have to That's interesting. Okay, I can live with that. All right, so I have to go to uploads and and find like something, you know, here's here's one. Okay, so then I'm going to go and tell it to background remover that and it's not a great picture of me, but what the heck? Uh, this one I hate because my head's cut off. It's like I took the picture and it it didn't have my head in there. Uh, let's see. So,

25:40 elements, chapters, chapters. I don't know. This is not great, but what the heck? Nope. I don't like that. Byebye. All right. So, I'll go and say YouTube chapters. I do have the paid version of Canva. I'm gonna admit that because I got tired of I I got tired of not being able to use every graphic they have. And so for 150 bucks, I think it's great. Um yeah. No, I these ch these prompts you can write. I I will gladly we'll do a session. We we can just go through these prompts and I will give you like all these prompts I've

26:26 done. Okay, these these are not you just got to give it enough information to give you what you want. All right, so this is a terrible thumbnail. All right, I'm going to go ahead and put uh I'll go ahead and make an ugly thumbnail on purpose because I want to show you want to show you chapters. [Music] Okay. Bold green big. All right. Loads YouTube. Yeah. See all these graphics here? This was all the graphics, some of the graphics I did for my my video uh about ADHD and my crazy brain. Um and so

27:14 type YouTube Okay. So, here's my YouTube. Uh, I got this a long time ago. This is It says YouTube Music, but you go here and you take this and you shrink it down. And there's the YouTube logo. And let's see. I need a rectangle. I like a rectangle. Rectangle is red, but it's too red. So, we're going to change it to another color. We'll go with green. And we'll send the back. Oops. Hang on. Layer send backward. Okay, there we go.

27:59 All right. So, YouTube. I don't know. This is a horrible thumbnail. All right. Chapters for YouTube. But I want to be a horrible thumbnail. Why do I want to be a horble thumbnail? Cuz watch this. All right. Save. Download. Download. Let's see. Next week is Tuesday the 20th. Uh so I'm going to go ahead and make a folder for May 20th. May 20. And save. All right. So there it is. I made this horrible thumbnail. Okay. Uh now we're gonna go to chat GPT. And yeah, I love what you've done here, but whatever. All right. I'm gonna go here. I'm upload that ch that thumbnail. The one I just

28:46 did chapters for YouTube right there. Okay. Open. Okay. Analyze this thumbnail for this video and make suggestions. I can't type tonight. make suggestions on how I can improve it. Okay, let's see. Okay, I I do not use the prompt in Canva to generate images. I know you can, but I'm a little disappointed in it. It's painful. All right, so here we go. So, I

29:31 gave it I gave it that and it says, okay, what's working? Great facial expression. You're excited. Pointing pose grabs attention. Communicates enthusiasm. Clear theme. Chapters and Yukuloto make the topic obvious at a glance. Minimal clutter. Keeps focus on you and the messages. Suggestions. The word chapters and light greens lacks contrast on which may be hard to read. Use bold white or bright yellow text with a drop shadow or outline to pop. Stronger hook. chapters is accurate but emotionally not emotionally engaging. Boost, you know, use bolder benefit driven phrases like boost watch time, YouTube secret weapon, stop losing views, viewers, use chapters like a pro,

30:18 add branded colors or shapes or place text inside a black YouTube style video box for content. Improve the YouTube logo logo background. The line box feels out of place against the blue. Yeah, it does. I just put it there. And so then I take this stuff. I take this stuff and then I go to Canva and say, "Dude, let's go make let's go make one worth looking at." And so I will go over here. Uh let's do the left one. There we go. Okay. All right. So now we'll go to back to Canva and I'll say, "Okay, look. This is uh terrible here. Uh this box is horrible. It needs a better color if I use a color at all. But let's see what it looks like with a white. Okay. And then I got to put the YouTube right dead center. Okay. It's still a horrible

31:05 thumbnail. Okay. I am not going to be able to quickly make a good thumbnail because I spend a lot of time a lot of time on my thumbnails. Now I use chat GPT to do it. So I'm gonna cheat. I think I'm gonna skip ahead and I'm gonna show you how I came up with the thumbnail for tonight. You're gonna say what? Yeah. So, I'm gonna skip ahead and but here's what I do. I literally create this thumbnail and I think I got it right and then it'll make suggestions of ways I make it better and then I will keep refining it. So, for example, it doesn't like that. So, I'm going to go and uh choose effects and I'm going to outline chapters and I'm gonna pick a color. Let's see. uh black chapters and

31:50 then I may change the colors of this to something else, but that helps. Um I could add a drop shadow perhaps or I could hollow it out. Nope, I hate that. Nope, not working. Not working for me. I'll just do outline. And that green ain't going to cut it for me. So, let's go black on that. Uh I'm probably going to change the font. Um, let's see. What have I been using lately? Liberation Sands. Nope. Don't like that. Uh, I also may change that to all capitals. I don't know. A TR. Nope. That's horrible. It looks better not capitalized like that.

32:36 So, chapters. Okay. All right. So, I'm going to go through this screen is horrible, by the way. I'm just was trying to change it up. It suggested I go with something else. [Music] Um, I think boost SEO. It always wants me to put things on the same line. I don't know why. Anyway, um I don't know. This is still a horrible thumbnail, but I'm gonna I'm gonna share it out and save it down and

33:24 I'm gonna call it version two and then I'm gonna feed it back into chat GPT and like, hey, okay. So, so I keep all these and I know I could do multiple pages in Canva, but I have a habit of just changing because usually I'm going through a refinement process and so right. Okay. Upload and recent version two. All right. So, I'm uploading version two. I don't even say anything. I just hit I just hit enter. It knows what I'm trying to do. It's like, oh, hey, you're you're trying to make that better, aren't you? Yes, I am. Okay. So, it'll come back. The second version is a step in the right direction. Here's a focus critique and

34:09 some polishment. Oops. Sorry about that. Duh. Okay. Text readability is much better. Outline. Okay. Your pose is still strong. YouTube look looks clean. Much improved. Refine the text. Boost SEO is bit vague. Okay. So, we'll change it. Use chapters like this. Uh, I like chapters equals more views. I'm probably going to go with that. Um, so I can go back and fix that. If you want to keep the SEO angle, try chapters boost SEO or YouTube chapters equals SEO win. Okay, I like that one, too. Uh, add visual cue for chapters. Consider adding a small YouTube video player mockup. Yeah, I do like that. Um, there's not one, so I'll probably have

34:55 to make one. That's where I would take. Let's see. All right, so here's where I would go. And I'd say uh create image of tube video player with player bar with chapter um chapter markers. Okay. And show the video. Show the video. partially played. Okay. All right. So, I'm say, "Hey, make me an image of that." And of course, it's like, "Want

35:42 me to give it feedback?" I spend too much time in chat GPT. I probably need to do a chat GPT detox. Um, so anyway, yeah. Uh, while we're waiting on that to draw out, let's check Let's check in the chat. I saw some folks showing up there. Let's take a look. All right. Using B-roll from chat GPT, would this require you to click yes to to alternate content question and video detail? Altered content? I don't really think so. I the the the the altered content that YouTube is concerned is that you're presenting something is real. And I usually use like cartoon animated

36:28 looking things. And so that's usually what I'm doing. Also, I'm not modifying the human in the video normally. So I don't really consider that being that I'm using that kind of thing. Uh but I do use for B-roll pictures. Do you use a prompt generator in Canva to generate? I have not. I've played with a little bit. I it I don't have the patience for it. I've I've just live and breathe in chat GPT so much. Um, yeah, sometimes, uh, so true, Corey. Sometimes I get frustrated because I don't know exactly h how the AI prompt wants the prompts to be. Uh, great point, Walter. I want to know. Yep. Darn. My nap took longer than expected. Hi, everyone. Hi, Matt. James Hicks in the house. Keep bringing great value. Yeah, man. Congrats on the

37:14 milestone you just reached, sir. That's awesome. Uh, James Hicks, hello. Use bangers or sugar pie font. Congratulations on 11K milestone. Yes. Is there suggested font size for thumbnails? So, if you go with the methodology that you're only supposed to have, you know, three or four, five words tops. You want the font size to be big enough that it pops on a mobile device. Um, if you go thumbs up.tv TV and you upload your thumbnail. It will show you what it's going to look like on all the different screens. And if in the little bitty one the text is not readable, legible, then it needs to be bigger. So that would be Yep. general

38:00 reminder, hit that like button. Yeah. Thanks everybody for doing that. All right, let's go back to chat GPT and see what it brewed up for us. All right, so Oh, let me hide the Okay. Oh, remember hit like button. Thanks there. All right. So, here's me a channel marker. All right. So, I'mma save [Music] image. I'll save it into the 20th because that's all right. Okay. So, now I have this channel marker. I will probably use that in my video. I'll probably put it at the

38:47 bottom of the video and drag it across uh to make it look like it's playing in the video. So, uh so I'll put that in my thumbnail. Yep. Uh let's see. I got another comment here. Let's see what it says. It says my font choice anything sandif and definitely not comic sands. Yes, definitely not comic sands. Yes, boy. I agree. So true. So true. All right, going back chat GT. So, I will use chat GBT to make my B-roll images. I haven't I have played with Sora. I've done a little bit of video with Sora, but it it's a it's a it's crazy cat sometimes and then sometimes it's amazing and does exactly what I want and I don't have the patience with it. So, because it's inconsistently consistent. So,

39:36 anyway, all right. Now, here's other things you can do with chat GPT. You can say create a loose script that sounds like me and what I would say for this video. Okay, so I said go create me a script. Oh, my head's in the way. Sorry about that. Move me over to the side there. All right, so create a loose script. I I don't like using a script. Um but I will use it sometimes to get ideas. It will make suggestions on how long sections of the video should be. Perhaps it's hey, you know, what are YouTube chapters? If you could do it in four minutes, you know, three minutes and 30 seconds, that'd be good. Uh, and then it'll talk about why I use them.

40:23 Uh, it will how to add chapters. We'll talk about it talks about that. Keep chapters. And so, it goes through live Q&A bonus downloadable content. Hey, here's my, you know, I can have a download for everybody to go get. um it'll want me make a Google doc or a notion template. I find sometimes the chat GP loses its mind in attempt to do this. So sometimes I'll tell just create a markup file and I can take that and output it to the screen. So um create a markup file so I can paste into Google Docs. That way it'll just put it on the screen and I can just paste that in and it's easier that way. So that way I don't

41:10 have to worry about it getting crazy and losing stuff. So there it is. It does that. Now for those of you that use uh a a teleprompter. So here it is. There right there. Hey, I'm really awesome. Da. All right. Cool. So there. Uh and then me make it downloadable. Yeah. We'll see. Sometimes it works. Sometimes don't. create a tele teleprompter version of this script. Okay. Be [Music] sure to start with the hook for the video. All right. And it will then create me. Yep.

41:59 So it will then create me a teleprompter version of this. And then if you use like say the Elgato teleprompter, you can paste it in there and put it in there and it it will help. I find when I do this just to kind of have a baseline to go. Um I will usually go back and say just give me bullet points. So hey, you want to export as a text doc or format as a Google doc using I just hit copy and I'll paste it into my prompter. So, um, let's see what LA say. Lala says, "I have a need voice over from our recorded crafty. I asked chat to you to create a voiceover script. I fed all the details about the channel. It truly helps." Lala, do you happen to have Epidemic Sound? Epidemic Sound now has

42:47 uh AI AI voices and so if you wanted it to read it for you, it would do that, too. So, I don't know if that's something you're considering. uh it doesn't have the capability yet to like go to your voice. I'm a little paranoid about that anyway. So, I'm not sure I want to teach it my voice and and lose out all chances there. All right. So, but yeah. All right. Now, we're going to jump ahead. I want to show you the magic of of thumbnails. So, I'm going to go back to the thumbnail work I did for this video. Uh I've done so many queries. I have to go find it or I can just do it over again. Ad chapter 8 use. All right, here it goes. Use chat to P. So I scroll back and so much playing around with this

43:35 just doing all kind of brainstorm and all placeholder. All right, so here's what I did. I This was my first thumbnail. Um, hang on. Let's go back further than that. No. Uh, okay. So, I said, "Hey, give me a mockup of what you think my thumbnail should look like." Well, there's that guy again who doesn't have a beard and wears glasses, so he doesn't look anything like me. I don't think maybe I should shave my beard and see if I can get me a pair of glasses and find out. Anyway, so then I went to Canva and I made my own thumbnail. I said, "Okay, well, what do you think about this thumbnail for this video idea?" So, this was the first one

44:20 I did. Yeah, it's a little ugly. Okay, so it tells me big expressive face, the excited cartoon character draws attention, emotion, great for click-through rate, uh, clear subject matter, chat, and YouTube logo immediately signal the topic, which is helpful for the segment. Color contrast, bright green against background makes it pop. And then it says, hey, here's some stuff. You know, I one thing it does, it recommends too many words, I think, for thumbnails. So, I go with the advice of no more than four or five words in a thumbnail and try to make the visuals tell the story and the text is just kind of reiterate. Yep, you're right. It's exactly what I'm trying to accomplish. So, it made suggestions on mix changing

45:07 my fonts. It says YouTube's brand font looks good here. You know, it said, "Hey, it' be good if you use a font that was close to YouTube." And so, and I said, "Well, hey, what's what's the YouTube logo?" and say, "Well, okay, you can't use that one, but one that's close to it is." So, if you find a f a font and you say, "Okay, well, I want one that's close to this." You can go in here and say, "Hey, tell me what font is close." And then you go in the Canva if that's what you use for your thumbnails or um you know, whatever you Adobe go and you say, "Okay, here's some font." So, I w up using the Monrod extra bold and then I went there and I upload a new version. says, "Okay, update the noticeable improvement. Here's a quick critique and ratings best on best practices. Click through improve text." Okay, it likes that clear curious

45:53 curiosity inducing question makes people want to click to find out how why balance layout the word upgrade at the bottom has contrast and focus and it says, "Hey, contrast between chat GBT and background. Add a highlighter icon. Try live badge." I'm not a big fan of putting live badges on videos because my concern there is it dates the video. Your shelf life on your video after it's live. It's not live when they're watching it if they clicked on it later. So final verdict, it says CTR potential eight 8.5 out of 10. Okay. Would you like to create a live sticker or help? Right. No, I went in, but can you make the chat GP words punch? It's how can I make the chat GPT words punchier? So it it gives me advice. I'm like, "Well,

46:38 what exactly do you mean?" And so it gives me, "Hey, go give it a subtle glow or a shadow." Um, it says, "Hey, change the font color slightly, outline the text, stroke effect, use capsule or a box behind the word, you know, use different font just for chat GPT." And it makes recommendations for fonts to use. It then makes recommendations for colors, which allow me to mock it up for reference. Uh, and it says, "Oh, you're almost there." Okay. What's improved? So, I gave it I I didn't instead I went and I gave it a new version of the thumbnail. Okay. It made recommendations said it was a nine out of 10. Okay. Final assessment, you know, I uploaded one more as that looks dialed in. Final assessment of this thumbnail. Chat GP now pops with lime green fill.

47:25 So, I have chat GBT. It says, "Hey, your clickth through rate potential is 9.5 out of 10. I can live with that every day of the week." Um, it suggested making a Canva template. This is more painful than than it's worth right now. I mean, I'll play with that later. Um, and then it wanted to create placeholder images, but that wasn't really practical for what I was doing, but I can go download the placeholder logos and all that. So, anyway, and then I said, hey, can I do what can I do? HD. So, I was going to even have it do slides. I said, well, I'm not doing slides tonight. I don't want to do slides. I want to just jump in. So that was my process right there that I went through. So going back to our original here, I can go and just

48:11 keep tweaking this thumbnail. Where go back? All right. I can go and just keep tweaking this thumbnail until I finally get the magic one. I don't want a public link. I can keep doing it until I get it to be a better thumbnail and chat gives me a thumbs up and says, "Yep, that's pretty good." So, yeah. Um, that's the whole point of that right there. Yeah. Oh, you can ask it for a teleprompter version. I've never asked to do that. Yeah, we'll try it next time. You absolutely can. It will give you one for that. Um, wow. Yes, I use the Epidemic Sound now has voice over capability. You can feed it a script and you can pick through the different voices and it will do that for you. It's

48:59 no extra charge. It is part of the plan. Uh does chat Gvt understand any slang words that may be in com? Yes, it does. It does. Um because sometimes I go to chat GBT and tell me what the heck does this mean? You know, so I have to go ask chat GBT. I have chat GBT as my default search engine. Now that doesn't always work. I will tell you that there are times when Google is just a better option. Um, and so I will go and do a Google search, but the rest of the time I'm using chat GPT for everything. But like for example, if you're looking for something specific that's local to you, you probably need to use Google to do that search. But if you're using it for coming up with ideas, uh, helping you with design, that type of thing. So

49:44 these are all the things that I use chat. I use chat g well I use chat gbt for so many things but those are just some of the things that I use it for. Uh let's see that was the last one was hey yeah um and so the that last part there I was I was having chat GBT rank my vid my thumbnails and tell me which one is the best thumbnail. You can do this before I let Vid IQ do this if I I still have Vid IQ. So, if I go and look at a video, go to content and live and edit this video. I have it here. It says my title is a 97.

50:30 Chat GBT gave me that title. Um, and then uh I have to go to a different screen, but I can have it rank my thumbnail. And it it thought my thumbnail was pretty banger as well. Now what most people don't know uh Vid IQ uses chat GPT as this backend. Now I can use I have an account with Vid IQ and I can use chat GPT. I mean I can use Vid IQ and my prompts with chat J chat GPT because Vid IQ does have more access to my YouTube analytics. But if you're patient, you do an export out of your analytics and import those in chat GBT will give you that same information. So if you're trying to save some money and you're already paying for

51:16 chat GBT anyway, I my screen share is gone. Hopefully it's just me. Are you seeing me? Am I gone? Did my share disappear? There's whole screen scrolling. Are you guys seeing me? Says my screen share's gone. Let's do the big comment here. Says Roy screen share's gone. Where'd my mouse go? I always hate this part where I have to go find my mouse. Come back. Come back. There we go. All right. Here we go. Tada. Oops. I didn't go according to plan. Here we go. I gotta fix that. I'll fix that later. Anyway, shout out. Okay, screen share is gone.

52:02 Hopefully everybody's seeing me. You are there. Okay, good. All right, I thought I left. I was going to be sad. So, let's go look at my list here. Uh, let's see. Everything I promised. So we did video ideation, we did tiles and hooks, we created SEO friendly chapter descriptions, we created chapter markers, we created tags, we had chat GBT review our thumbnails, we had to create scripts and teleprompter chapters. So yeah, we did all that. Look, it's back now. Good. Good. All right. request timestamped SEO chapters. Again, I wish there was a way

52:48 to get chat to be do the transcription consistently, but it it doesn't. So, I I gave one time I did it and it perfect. It was just it was beautiful thing. It was a beautiful thing. Upload and compare two or three thumbnails. Ask chat to rank your thumbnails and provide feedback. So, there there you go. Now, those are just a few of the ways that I use chat GPT. And so, yeah, you definitely go catch the replay. Um, if I you know what, I will go and put all my prompts in a text file and I'll make it available for people to download somehow. Uh, but it's the magic is the

53:35 prompts. Your prompts need to be your prompts and it's just a matter of giving it enough information and uh it will it will learn you and who you are and so it's it's amazing. It will after a while there's so many things you don't have to tell it. Hey Roy. Hey Torah. How you doing? Hey Lala. Hey Dora. Well I missed the entire master class. I'll catch the replay. it. I am very Yeah, so many things learned. Yes, re-watch this. Um, definitely. Okay. And like everything I did, I I'm more than happy to share it out to, you know, just here it is out there to the world because I want you to

54:21 be the best creator possible. And if I also need to save time. I don't know about I work a full-time job and so and sometimes his days are long and and so sometimes I need help and so I use chat GPT and it's not perfect. You cannot go with everything chat GPT gives you. You you have to I I use Canva and chat GPT together to make what I want to make. Okay. And so I will use um I will use chat GPT to do images for me for B-roll type stuff. I go to pixels.com for uh B-roll video. Um I am

55:08 playing with Sora to make videos for me. Um for B-roll purposes. Um and so I'm going to keep playing with that. When I get good at it, I'll share with you how I did it. Um it's just not working consistently for me. And I think it's I think it's the operator. I think it's a pepk error. Problem exists between keyboard and chair. Yeah. So I will get it. I will make it work. So it's going to be good. Yeah. So many things learn. Thank you. Yep. Does chat does chat sound too much like a program and less like normal humans when when explaining things to common man? Um you can tell it to explain it in a way. You can say explain it like I'm a 12th grader. Explain it like I'm an eighth grader. explain it like I am 5 years old and it

55:56 will do it. It will break it down and it will explain it to you as if you're 5 years old. It will. It absolutely will. And so take advantage of those things and use use that. All right, that is it. That's my show for tonight. Um yeah, I want to thank everybody that showed up tonight. All right, Tora. It's true like a master class. Yeah, Sora, that's a new one to me. Sora, if you're in the paid version of chat GPT, Sora, you only see it in the web version. Let me go to the web version. Let's go here and share Chrome. There's Chrome. I'm sharing. Nope, I don't like that. Let's do the Let's do the other side of

56:42 Chrome. There we go. All right. So, you'll notice um chatb. All right. You'll see right here if you're in the browser version, here's Sora and you can go to Sora and have it make you images. And then what I did is I took a bunch of videos of myself and I uploaded them into Sora and said, "Make it look like me." So if you are on the paid version of ChatG, Sora is there. You just got to go up there and and find it. And then you can go and say, you know, make me a photo realistic image. So I'll go right here, upload from device. And I have a place where I have pictures of me. Um, let's sort by

57:31 name me 2025. So I'll go out here and I'll pick like, you know, a few images and say there we go. So, it's it's it's going to do another blue guy because I didn't update I didn't upload anything. Uh, give me a photo realistic picture of me wearing a shirt with a chat GPT logo on it and have me doing a thumbs up and a smile on my face.

58:18 All right, remix. Okay, so you hit that button, it's added to the queue and up here in the corner, you got to wait activity. You're you're also limited. You can only do so many images a day. You can only do so much video per day in Sora, unless you want to pay out the 200 bucks a month plan, which ain't happening. uh you know so and uh if you are a business like I am uh chat GBT subscription is an expense is a business expense that you need to calculate for I I can show that I definitely use it for my content creation process. All right, it's halfway there. Let's see what it looks like. It's going to be wearing a blue shirt unfortunately because I gave

59:03 it all blue pictures. it. I give it some other pictures. But I I was getting grumpy because chat GBT wasn't doing realistic images of me when I uploaded video. I uploaded images of myself. So I went in here said, "Hey, Sora can do it." And then Sora can also do videos. And I will play with that more um and show you. All right. [Music] Okay. Thumbs up with chat GBT. All right. Here we go. And click. Let's see what it looks like. Okay. That one doesn't look as much like me, but it's close. It's almost me. But there. See?

59:49 So, there I go. It's almost me with a chat GPT logo on my shirt. I'll play with that more. Uh, and and I'll show you how to do video. But that's it. That's our show. Thank you so much for watching tonight. If you enjoyed this, uh, I would really appreciate you give me a big thumbs up. Uh, and if you're not a subscriber to this channel, this is the kind of stuff that I do. So, subscribe and and and come join the party here. So, I mean, for example, here's a video I did with AI. [Music]
