Peace Creatives, If you blinked yesterday, you missed some serious firepower dropping into our toolbox. January 14th brought us tools that solve two of the biggest pain points we face: keeping your brand visually consistent and reaching people who don’t speak English. Let me break down what matters for us: GOOGLE VEO 3.1: The “Infinite B-Roll” Machine What it does: Google’s video AI now lets you upload reference photos (they call them “Ingredients”) and it’ll generate brand-new videos that keep your person/product looking the same but put them in different settings. Why you care: You can now take ONE photo of your client’s product and generate 20 different videos of it in completely different environments without ever re-shooting it. The move: Upload your client’s product or brand elements as an “ingredient” Generate vertical (9:16) videos natively for social platforms Create lifestyle content without additional shooting Creator Academy application: Generate custom B-roll that features your branding consistently across every video without needing hours of footage.

Why you care: Your content isn’t limited to English-speaking audiences anymore. That pitch video you recorded? Run it through Rask and now you’ve got versions in Spanish, Mandarin, French, or whatever languages your target market speaks—all with your voice and lip-sync intact. The move: Record once in your native language Generate localized versions for different demographics Test which communities respond better to your message Marketing angle: Expand your reach without creating new content from scratch.

Ok this isn't perfect but it took me less than one minute to wrote this prompt: Here's the revised version: Subject: Using AI Clones for Content... Not Perfect, But Not Bad Either Let me be real with you, AI clones still have that AI look, at least some of them but its getting scarily close. I'm experimenting anyway, because even at 80% perfect, the time savings are ridiculous. Here's what I just tested: I had an idea for a restaurant marketing video featuring SMS growth strategies. Normally, this means setting up cameras, lighting, recording multiple takes, shooting B-roll, editing for hours... Instead, I wrote a 40-word prompt in under a minute and let an AI clone do the talking. The results? A complete 6-scene storyboard with: - A-roll scenes (my AI clone talking to camera) - B-roll footage (chef bringing steak, waitress serving drinks) - Professional Getty stock media - Voiceover script with precise timing - Text overlays strategically placed - Background music - Captions Total time? Less than 2 minutes. Is it flawless? No. Does my clone sometimes have that slightly "AI" look? Yeah. But is it good enough for testing concepts, client previews, and even some final deliverables? Absolutely. The Process I'm Testing: 1. Open the tool's Video Agent feature 2. Describe what you want (I'm learning to be more specific about visuals and messaging) 3. Let the AI generate the complete storyboard with my clone 4. Review and refine (this is where I'm spending time learning what works) 5. Export My prompt was basic, just describing the scene: talking head about SMS marketing, B-roll of restaurant staff serving food, gratitude moments. Nothing fancy. The AI handled scene sequencing, timing, visual variety, stock footage selection, script optimization, and the production blueprint. The tool I'm experimenting with? HeyGen's Video Agent. https://app.heygen.com/home Still early in my testing, but if these results hold up, this could seriously change how we scale content production at DMG without needing to be on camera for every single video.

Peace Creators, if you’ve never recorded a video of yourself and you’ve been stuck in your head, this beginner crash course is for you. In this video, I’m breaking down the simplest way to get on camera with confidence, what to say, how to set up your shot fast, and how to post your first video without overthinking it. Watch it now, create your first video, then post it right here in the comments. 👇

What are your TOP 3 tools right now? Let’s compare our creative + AI stacks. I’m curious to see what everyone here is actually using day-to-day. Drop your Top 3 tools with #1 being the tool you rely on the most.And tell us how you’re using each one. If your list is literally just ChatGPT, that’s perfectly fine.If you’re stacking tools (editing, automation, content creation, research, etc.), even better. This thread will help all of us level up our workflow, discover new tools, and sharpen our creative process. Let’s see what your setup looks like.What’s in your Top 3 and what do you use them for?
