## Summary

This video presents a step-by-step method for creating animated videos using free AI tools, with the goal of generating income on YouTube. The creator demonstrates the entire workflow, from story generation to final editing, using a biblical flood narrative as an example. The video also highlights a real-world case of a channel earning $3,800 per month with AI-generated animations.

### Key Points

- **Earning Potential of AI Animation** [00:01] — A channel making biblical stories with AI earns up to $3,800 every 30 days and gets 1 million views per month, according to Social Blade.
- **Step 1: Idea Generation with ChatGPT** [00:31] — Use ChatGPT to generate a detailed story idea. The creator uses a previous video's idea about the flood and asks ChatGPT to divide it into scenes and add sound effects.
- **Step 2: Image Generation with Midjourney or Leonardo** [01:41] — Ask ChatGPT to create prompts for each scene, then use Midjourney or the free tool Leonardo to generate images in 16:9 format. Editing may be needed for precision.
- **Step 3: Animation with Pika Labs** [02:37] — Use Pika Labs (free) to animate images. Join the Discord server, paste prompts from Midjourney or ChatGPT, and generate animations. J3 is also good but paid.
- **Step 4: Voiceover and Sound Effects** [03:49] — Use Eleven Labs for voiceover and Epidemic Sound for sound effects. Both are easy to use and well-known.
- **Lip-Sync Workaround** [04:17] — Since quality lip-sync tools are paid, the creator opts for a 100% narrated video where characters act but don't speak, avoiding the need for lip-sync.
- **Step 5: Video Editing with CapCut** [05:22] — Combine all assets (images, animations, voice, sound effects) in CapCut, a free and easy-to-use video editor.
- **Example Animation Result** [05:53] — The final animation tells a story about the global flood, referencing ringwoodite and marine fossils in deserts as evidence.

### Conclusion

By following this free workflow, anyone can create animated storytelling videos without spending money on expensive tools. The method leverages ChatGPT, Leonardo, Pika Labs, Eleven Labs, Epidemic Sound, and CapCut to produce engaging content that can potentially generate significant income on YouTube.

## Transcript

up to R$50,000 a month with videos made by Artificial Intelligence? Several right now without needing a single human in the video. For biblical stories 100% made by Artificial Intelligence. It gets 1 million
views per month and $3,800 every 30 days according to Social Blade. But to make videos exactly like his, you'll need paid tools. That's why show you a way to make money with animation without paying a single real. The
first thing you need is an idea. So, I'll talk to the GPT chat. A few days ago I posted the video "How to make money with Jeep SEIC" and Deeps himself gave me a video idea about the flood. If you haven't
seen that video, just click on the card above and you'll see it. But it's with the idea that Deeps generated in the previous video that I'm going to generate the story with the GPT chat. First thing, we're going to take the idea, and we need to be very
specific and very detailed.  Because when we tell a story, the be harmonious. So, to create animation in today's video, I decided to choose Japanese anime-style animation. So what I'm going to do
now is go to the GPT chat and ask it to divide Deeps' story into scenes, and that's what happened. The chat divided this into 47 scenes, but to make the animation even more realistic, I'm going to ask it to add
sound effects to each of the scenes it created. Once I have the scenes and sound effects together, we'll move on to the second step, which is image generation. I'm going to ask the GPT chat to create prompts for all the
scenes it made so I can simply copy and paste them into M Journey or Leonard, which is free. If you don't know how to use M Journey, go to YouTube. You already know, right? But go to the search tab and
look for a video about it. And if you ca n't afford M Journey, Leonard is generating very similar images with the same quality, 100% free. One thing I'm going to ask M Journey to do here is generate images in...  The 16x9 format
is the video format here on YouTube, and in several situations like this one, you'll notice that we need to edit the image to get a more precise result. And these images you're seeing
on your screen now are all the images it generated simply by copying and pasting the PRs from the GPT chat. Completing this image stage, we'll move on to the third stage. And this is where the magic
happens; we're going to the animation. I tested several video generators to find out which was the best for making animations, and honestly, the quality that video generators offer today... they shouldn't even be charging for it,
but that's okay. The two best video generators we have today video generators we have today are J3 and PicLaabs. J3 is very good, but every time you need to create a repeated animation, you have to
pay, so for me, it's not worth it. We 're going to use PicLaabs to make the animations here. The first thing you have to do is join the PicLaabs Discord server and find at least one animation generator chat here
with the chat.  Once you're open, you can paste the prompt you made in M ​​Journey and ask Pica Labs for the same thing. Most of the time it will work, but if you copied and pasted the M Journey prompt into Pica Labs and it did
n't work, then you'll ask Chat GPT to create a prompt to generate the scene it provided earlier, and then copy and paste it into Pica Labs. Okay, with all the scenes ready, you'll move on to the next step, which is the voices. The
voice part is simply the simplest part because here we'll use Eleven Labs. Eleven Labs is very easy to use and very famous, so if you're watching a video about animation, you probably know how to use Eleven Labs. It's
true that it's very easy. We'll use two here: Eleven Labs to create the voices and Epidemic Sound to create the sound effects that Chat GPT generated. The last thing you need to create an animation is
lip-sync, which is to synchronize the character's lips with the voice. But there's a problem: all the tools that do lip-syncing with quality today are paid.  The
most famous is Deep Shot, which is also paid, so the goal of today's video is to make animations with artificial intelligence telling stories without spending anything. To achieve this, I decided that the video will be 100% narrated.
So the characters won't talk to each other and won't look at the camera talking. They will only act in the scenes while the narrator explains what's happening in the video. "Ah, Daniel, but I want to learn how to make animation like
those channels in the United States are making a lot of money with 'Animation Maravilha'!" If you want that, you'll do the following: you'll like today's video and comment saying you want to learn how to make this type of
complete animation. Then, in the next video, I'll teach you how those channels in the United States are making money just with animations of the Unino Prompt from the GPT chat, the images from M Journey or Leonard, the animations from
Pic Labs, the voices from Eleven Labs, the sound effects from Epidemic Sound. You 'll put all the files together and transfer them to the video editor you like best. The video editing software I like best is also the
simplest and easiest to use, and it 's also free: Cap  Cut, now you will see the result of the entire combined production, starting with DPC k sh GPT mid Journey pic labs Eleven Labs epidemic sound and Cap Cut. The result will now appear
Cap Cut. The result will now appear on your screen. Genesis 7:11 says that on that day all the fountains of the deep burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavens were opened, and a the floodgates of the heavens were opened, and a global flood began. Geologists today
say that this is impossible because the volume of water needed to flood the entire planet is three times greater than that of all the oceans combined. But an earthquake can change everything we believe about geology. It happened in 2013 in the
Russian sea, precisely at a depth of 73 km, 500 km deeper than any tectonic plate. But what exists so close to the Earth's core? We didn't know until a year later the answer appeared in the interior of Brazil.
By accident, a mineral never seen before was found inside a diamond mine in Juína, in the interior of Mato Grosso. The name of this mysterious material Grosso. The name of this mysterious material is ringwoodite. Seen under a microscope, it is
crystallized blue because it contains water in a new state—neither solid, liquid, nor gaseous. You are seeing water in it.  The spongy state and the transition zone with the
Earth's core where this earthquake occurred is almost 100% made of this mineral, and the water stored at this depth is equivalent to three times the volume of all the oceans combined. A small part of it rises to the
Earth's surface through geysers and volcanoes. Scientists have calculated that if all the water inside these minerals rose to the surface, the entire planet would be submerged to a depth of more than 10 km. Today we will discover a new world:
why are there marine fossils in the Sahara Desert? Why are there fossilized fish on top of Everest? The Atacama Desert in Chile? The Suura Desert in Peru? The Grand Canyon in the United States? Fish, algae, and sharks have appeared
fossilized in almost all the deserts of the world. How did whale fossils in the Egyptian Desert get there? Do we have evidence that a global flood hit the planet at some point in history? So now you will
in history? So now you will discover the untold story of the flood. Thank you for your attention, and until the next video.
