Introduction: Where Are All the Black People?
The video starts by highlighting the underrepresentation of black people in media and introduces the idea of using AI, specifically Google's V3, to produce entire movies. The creator emphasizes the potential of AI to create content that resonates with black audiences. It also touches on the economic impact of AI, particularly on black employment, and the need for black representation in AI development.
The Impact of AI on Black Employment
The video addresses the disproportionate impact of AI-driven job displacement on black communities, particularly in sectors like cashiering, call centers, and driving. It raises concerns about economic eviction and the potential for AI to exacerbate existing inequalities if it continues to learn from a biased internet. The creator stresses the importance of black people being represented in the development and coding of AI technologies to ensure fair and equitable outcomes.
Creating Cinematic Videos with Google's VO3
The video transitions into a tutorial on using Google's V3, a video content generation tool that turns text prompts into cinematic videos. The initial step involves navigating to the Google DeepMind website to access the V3 tool. Users are instructed to initiate a new project within the platform to begin storyboarding their cinematic content.
Generating Content Ideas with ChatGPT
The tutorial explains how to use ChatGPT to generate content ideas for short cinematic videos with an overarching theme, specifically tailored to appeal to black audiences. The prompt includes parameters such as the length of the clips (four to eight seconds) and the focus on how AI is replacing jobs held by black people. The video emphasizes the importance of being specific with the prompt, such as targeting black mothers or HBCU students, to generate relevant and engaging content ideas. Examples include the disappearing cashier, the call center that doesn't call back, and the replacement of drivers with self-driving cars.
Character Development and Specificity
The video guides viewers on how to develop characters for their cinematic videos, emphasizing the importance of specificity. Instead of general descriptions, the tutorial advises including details such as age, race, and specific physical attributes like hairstyles or clothing. Examples include specifying a "35-year-old African American barber" or a "black high school teenage female with braids." The goal is to create characters that feel real and relatable.
Camera Angles and Voice Tonality
The tutorial explains how to use ChatGPT to determine camera angles and voice tonality for each clip. The prompt includes the cinematic video idea (e.g., vanishing work) and requests detailed character descriptions along with camera angle and voice tonality recommendations. The video showcases various camera angles, such as over-the-shoulder shots, low angles, wide shots, and tracking shots, and discusses the importance of voice tonality to convey the character's emotions and the scene's atmosphere.
Finalizing and Generating Your Video
The video details the final steps before producing the video, which involves creating a prompt that includes a one-to-two sentence dialogue for each clip. This prompt should incorporate the character description, scene details, camera angle, voice tonality, and the spoken text. The tutorial then demonstrates how to copy this prompt into Google V3, select the text-to-video option, and adjust the settings, including the quality and whether the characters should speak. It also explains the different subscription plans and their features, such as the ability to generate videos with spoken dialogue.
Conclusion and Next Steps
The video concludes by showcasing a final video clip generated using Google V3, demonstrating the techniques and prompts discussed throughout the tutorial. The creator encourages viewers to leave a comment if they want access to the prompt pack and invites them to like and subscribe for more content.
