-
Step 1: See the whole workflow
Walk through script, storyboard, generation, editing and publishing, and know the tool and deliverable at each stage.
π‘ Decide platform and length first, then work backwards to aspect ratio and pacing.
-
Step 2: Generate shots with Jimeng
Produce usable shots with Jimeng text-to-video and image-to-video, and write prompts that specify subject, action and camera movement.
π‘ One action per shot; specify subject, action, camera movement and lighting.
-
Step 3: Character motion with Kling
Use Kling for character shots: motion control and first-frame images make movement natural, and double as talking-head footage.
π‘ Prefer image-to-video for people, start from a clear frontal photo, and keep motion modest.
-
Step 4: Edit in CapCut
Bring clips into CapCut and use auto-edit, AI voiceover and smart captions to finish the video.
π‘ Proofread captions line by line β names and jargon are where AI recognition fails.
-
Step 5: Publish across platforms
Adapt ratio, cover and first three seconds per platform, then turn publishing into a repeatable workflow.
π‘ Do not post identical files everywhere β rework the first three seconds and aspect ratio per platform.
