[00:01] making it easier than ever to create this type of content format, which automated channels where no one appears, like Alux Blix, Tales of the Night, or

[00:16] Magnates Media. These channels have in common that they could be earning more than five figures monthly thanks to the millions of views type of video works without us having to expose ourselves, the question that

[00:30] might arise is: How can I create these automated channels? In this video, we'll see step-by-step seven sections I've prepared so you can create your own YouTube channel from scratch without having to invest money

[00:42] or have any prior knowledge. Sounds good? Let's start with the first step: creating our channel. To do this, right after you finish watching the entire video I'm showing you, you can create your own by simply

[00:54] clicking on your profile picture in the upper right corner. When you click on "Change settings," the option to "See all channels" will appear. If you click on it, it will automatically appear. An option for you to

[01:07] create a new one. So, we'll click it, and from here it's as easy as writing anything, the first thing I recommend is that you select a niche for your channel. most important points when starting a new channel. Here, what I

[01:20] recommend is that you talk about something you really like or that you know a lot about, especially at the like or that you know a lot about, especially at the focused the niche you choose, the easier it will be to

[01:32] As you grow, you can broaden your content, bit more generic. Perhaps you already have several niches in mind, or perhaps you need to brainstorm. For this, the best thing is to

[01:46] use a specific GPT file, which we'll be looking at from the ChatGPT platform. For some time now, the free version of ChatGPT has allowed you to use all the GPT files that have already been created. So, we're going to go to

[01:58] this Ar GPT option, and now we're going to look for one called Vidic (read in Spanish). Since this is a well-known platform in the YouTube world, content creators by offering tools that greatly facilitate

[02:13] video ranking, to use it from GPT we would click here. here, as we can use it for free, just like all this tutorial. The first thing we're going to ask is for 20

[02:27] viral niches to create a YouTube channel, and I'm going to send it here. recommended this GPT because it's connected to YouTube and has a lot of real-time information about what's happening on that platform. Therefore, what it

[02:41] interesting than asking directly to the GPT chat. From here we have all these great options, but since I already did some research in a about the best monetizable niches to create a channel like this

[02:55] going to directly choose one of them, which was scary stories, since we were Tales of the Night. which accumulate millions of views on many of their videos. Once we know what we're going to focus on, it's time to choose the

[03:09] that, again from the same GPT, we can ask for 10 original names for the channel we're going to create about the niche we've chosen. So I'll send it, and for this example, I'll be using the

[03:23] sixth one called "Macabre Legends." So I copy it, and going back to the YouTube section, we're going to give it that name. We check this option and click "Create." Once enter the YouTube content creator platform. To do this, by clicking

[03:37] on the "Your Account" section at the top right, you'll find to click on it, and from this panel, we're now able to customize our Personalization," and in the " Basic Information" section, we're going to be able to change

[03:52] future) and the identifier name, which I recommend always be the same as, or as similar as possible to, the name you've chosen here. And finally, we're going to be able to add a short description to our channel. For this channel,

[04:05] something that represents your channel. Although, again, you can use Artificial Intelligence based on the same GPT file and ask it to create a send, and with this description, which by the way isn't

[04:19] bad at all, we copy and paste it here. We'll click publish, and now we go to the branding section. From here, we can upload our logo and even a of our channel. To see this, let's look at the next

[04:39] Artificial Intelligence through the Kiter platform, since it's a very very professional results in a very simple way. To use it, we would click " Try Kiter for free," and from there they give us all these options to

[04:53] using Google with the account from all the tutorials, once here, we'll click on "New project" and then " Create." We'll be using this section below, since it's their logo generator powered by

[05:06] scary stories channel, I'll use it as an example. I want a zombie logo for this channel I'm creating. So I'm going to click "create logo," and from here, this option will appear. If we click it,

[05:19] we can see this logo and completely change everything you see free; it only gives you one logo each time you generate a new one. But if I jump to my account, you'll see that now, by entering the exact

[05:32] different logos. So I'll be using this one here, from where we can edit everything. For the logo, I'm just going to keep this image since I don't want text from the profile picture. But I do

[05:45] want text in the banner. To do this, by clicking from this section, we'll draw a square, and in the dimensions, we'll set it to 248 pixels by 1152, since those are the dimensions recommended by YouTube. Also, in the

[05:58] description, I'll leave a template that you can upload from here. You can add it by clicking on it and adjusting it from one of its corners to ensure that this design looks good on all devices. The safe area

[06:10] would be the phone. This is as far as the tablet would go, and this entire length would be for computers, and this entire height would be for television devices. So here you could lower the opacity a bit and add your

[06:22] move the logo letters right here, changing them to the channel name. And here I'm just going to leave this design simple on this part, as these won't bring us views. So for the logo, I'm going

[06:36] to adjust it to practically fill the entire screen, and for the banner, I'm removing all the opacity. I'm going to keep this in a slightly more minimalist way. Now, on the download button, I would click " Download" to save

[06:48] this zip file with both designs. Then, from YouTube, we click on "Upload Image," select our logo, and seeing that it fits well, we click " second option, we would click "Upload," choose our banner, and we'll see that it

[07:01] devices perfectly, as we saw in the previous template I showed you. So I click "Done," and to publish, click on this button. From here, we already have both our logo and banner, but keep in mind that

[07:14] updated yet, as it usually takes several minutes. Although we can already description, and having created our channel and knowing the niche we're going to focus on, it's time to create our content. To

[07:33] artificial intelligence tools with which you could create different types of videos my channel, I've already talked about how we can create cartoons, create edited videos, copyright videos, book summaries,

[07:48] 50 videos in seconds, many types that you can see on my channel. But I'll start undertaking this type of project. And whatever type you create a dialogue for it. What I recommend is that you carefully analyze the

[08:03] channels that are performing best in the niche you want to start in, and this doesn't necessarily have to most followers, but rather... Look for can also speed up this analysis a lot using an artificial intelligence called

[08:18] Harpa AI, a Google Chrome extension. Once installed, it will appear here. One of its advantages is that it can see everything So, as an example, I could go to the most popular videos on this

[08:32] like this one called Mariana. I click on it, and now we're going prompt, which I'll also leave below in the description. Basically, I'm asking for a dialogue—in my case, for a one-minute video with six different

[08:45] scenes. You could modify it here, from where I'm asking for the text to add a narrator's voice and a detailed description to generate the images for each scene using artificial intelligence. With that, I click send. And

[08:57] writing here anymore. Once we have everything we've requested, we can copy it and paste it into a Google Docs document. so we can review it and correct some parts that could be improved, although in

[09:10] my case I'll be leaving it as is. With this, we'll move on to creating the this free tool. By the way, we already saw it in this video will generate the videos through this platform in just seconds. To

[09:24] do this, going back to the document, I'm going to take the description of the image that was given to me for scene one, so I copy it and paste it here from BDO. I click " create," and about 30 seconds later, we'll have this video here, which we

[09:36] could use as another scene for our YouTube video. So, if we like it, we click " save." Now, we would replicate the exact same process for each of these scenes. I've already

[09:48] generated them all here, downloaded them, and I recommend that you number them according to the scene they correspond to. With this, if we go back to the document we had, we would still need to narrate this text that is describing the story. You

[10:00] although if you want to do it with artificial intelligence... The best platform is Eleven Labs. Once you're registered on this platform, I Voices section and click on the Library tab. Here you can filter by the

[10:13] type of voice you're looking for. In my case, since it's a narrated horror story, I'm interested in the Story and Narration category. I also you can filter by the most used voices. Here, I'll be

[10:26] using Valentino's voice, which you'll hear when you see the final result. After listening, if you like the click on the Add to My Voices button.

[10:39] From the Speech section, copy the voice from the first scene and paste it here. It's very important that you select case was Valentino's. Click Generate, and you'll hear: "The forest

[10:53] awakens slowly. The first rays of the sun illuminate the horizon as life begins to make sense." Knowing how to do this, I've already replicated the scenes. We did this with the videos, and now with all this content, we'll

[11:09] you can use any CCat. So, from the platform, I click on " Create New Project," and from the " Import" section, we select all the materials and import them by dragging and dropping.

[11:22] Something we might find is that the video ends up being a little shorter than the narrated voice. To free. So, here we're going to place each scene at the beginning of each audio track. Now, you

[11:36] can do two things: first, right-click on any video and copy it; and second, if you right-click and paste, you'll have the same video duplicated. Another method I recommend is to

[11:48] Speed." This symbol will appear, allowing you to stretch it to the duration of the voiceover. This way, the video will be in a slightly slower motion but will last exactly the same amount of time as the

[12:01] this method, the text should be shorter so the voiceover can be more effective. The narration shouldn't last more than 4 seconds, as that's the video's duration. So, for example, in these first four scenes, I've shortened the audio a bit and slowed it down a little.

[12:14] The thing is, instead of a minute, when I drag everything, it ends up being shorter. To make it more eye-catching, we need to add transitions. To do this, we can click on this section and drag one like this.

[12:28] We'd grab it, drag it here, and simply click on this scenes. In addition, we could add effects. To do this, we go to effects, and I'm going to add one called retro. In this case,

[12:42] by scrolling down a bit, I'm going to choose one called Black Noise. So, I'd add it here and drag it to the end. And with this, we'd have which gives the video consistency. Although, I notice

[12:55] different color changes here, and to fix this, we could go to [the relevant section] and add a custom one. So, we add it here again and drag it these options will appear. If we scroll to the bottom, we

[13:08] here we can also lower the brightness. Here we can see that it has greater consistency. Once we have all these select all the audio. In the text section, there's an option called "

[13:22] autocaption." If we click " generate," it will automatically add can also edit this by leaving the text section selected. If we click on "template," we can choose one like this. It has now

[13:35] I like the result, I can click on "export." I add a title, apply these adjustments, and after exporting, our video is ready. Now, before publishing, we need a thumbnail. I'm

[13:48] going to use one of the video frames as a base. So, I select the this one, and from this section, I click on " export." I add a title, like "base," and to platforms like Kitel, select "social," and now... In the

[14:05] I'll choose this template as an example. Instead of and add the photo we downloaded. I'll drag it and click " use as background" from the layers section. I'll select the photo I already had,

[14:20] and here I could change the title to, for example, "Mysteries of Hidden Nature." It would but this way you can see how you can configure it. If we have and by clicking this button, we'll have it on our device to

[14:35] this platform where, if you select your thumbnail file, you can see if it really stands out enough compared to other see when recommendations appear. By clicking this button, you can move it,

[14:49] modify its location, and even change the if it's interactive enough. going back to the YouTube Studio section, if we click on "panel," we'll

[15:04] find this symbol. Upload. So we click on it and from here we would select our video, open it, and now we would have to give it a title and a description. And if we needed help again, we could go back to the

[15:16] video. Here, I just asked it to give us a title for a scary story, and in quotation marks, I've pasted all the dialogue we had from the Harpa platform. So I'm sending it, and now we can see this title here.

[15:29] So I'm copying and pasting it from here. We can also ask for a description. So I just asked it, and I'm pasting it here as well. Now, in our thumbnail. So we'll click on it, and if it's the first video you're uploading, it will

[15:42] verify your phone number. So we click here, and after verifying it, now, when you click on upload file, you would select your thumbnail, and you'd have it you would select if it's focused only on children or if it's not for

[15:56] them, which in my case wouldn't be for them. So, although I'm not going to may also see Beyond this. If you click on Show more, you will be able to teach YouTube what your content is about so it can recommend it in the

[16:10] most appropriate areas. Going back to GPT, I've requested these 5 options, and now that they're pasted here, if you scroll down, you'll select the video category that best suits the type of content you're going to upload. In this case, it would be

[16:23] Here we can add an end screen like the one that will appear at the not going to add one here, so I click " Next." And since there's no copyright issue, in the last step, we can click "Public"

[16:37] We also have the option later date. However, I'm going to click " Public," and by clicking this button, we'll have video. If we go to the Channel, we'll see the channel we created

[16:52] throughout this tutorial with the video, banner, logo, and title we able to do this for free? Let me know in the comments, and share if you liked it, as we're seeing now. It's possible to create a
