I used a prompt to generate code for this 21-second animation, then refined it through several versions: the harbor opening, Stretchy’s entrance, his elastic-arm rescue and a clean exit. It’s a silent work in progress, but seeing a little character carry a story through code feels like a win. ⛵

You know you are working on the right thing when @Jake Van Clief comments this on you video! The showcases series shows my latest build and what I will be demoing to the Lyceum. It is a full CRM and Project Management System (PMS) build using my Automation Factory and that lives 100% in Microsoft's eco system. You can try the full build here: https://ashy-flower-0f920ed0f.4.azurestaticapps.net/?guide=on It is a demo that mimics what the real build does.

Hi all 👋 This is my first post and video. I have been a VIP member since March. I continue to learn and get value from all aspects of this community on a regular basis. I also joined the Lyceum recently to better understand how to translate everything that I have been learning and processing for the last ~6 months into a tangible skill, product, business and more. The progress that I have made so far has been well worth it. Given that its structured like a class, there are assignments, deadlines, group work, etc. That means more opportunity to procrastinate! In my most recent bender of procrastinating, I decided to be productive and try new things. I made a video in attempt to summarize many recent updates to how I work with Claude on a day to day basis. So here's my version... and it was supposed to be 30 seconds. It's version five and a bit over five minutes. I got way off track, lost the plot and burned way too many tokens - but I learned a lot and fun along the way! Hope there is something in there for at least 1 person 🙌 My Human Harness - First video I've ever made - Posting my imperfections

My sister Hannah and I just finished something we’d never done before: the AI visuals for a live concert, Hello America, on the giant LED wall at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. Thirty songs in ten days. A big part of how two beginners pulled that off came from right here. ICM is how I ran it: one folder, one set of notes and one chat per song, more than thirty chats running at once, each one picking up where the last one left off. Thank you, Jake, Matthew and the whole Eduba team for building this and sharing it so openly. And @Matthew Creamer , a special thank you for coming out to the show in person. Showing up at the gala and the show to support us meant more than I can say. Having someone from this community in the room made it real. We captured the whole journey, the good and the messy parts: the tools I built, what broke, about 55,000 credits, and how ICM held it all together. ▶ Watch it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-HiJLMo3HfQ If it’s useful to you, a like and a subscribe would mean a lot. It helps me keep making these breakdowns for you.

This was the first community I joined, and my first real go at AI beyond just talking to a chat window. I found it pretty much by chance, lurked for a few months, and High Tea 6 was my first call. I didn't realise at the time how much that would shape things. The picture I got here was a healthy one. Build the thing, watch how it actually behaves, be honest about the bits that don't work. I've spoken to enough people since who came in through paid courses to know that isn't the norm. Nobody here sold me a shortcut, and I got pretty lucky landing here first rather than somewhere else. Something happened recently that made me take a step back. I met someone at an open networking event who runs corporate training and is writing a textbook alongside it. What she needs is her course turned into per-module walkthrough videos - her own slides on screen, voiceover over the top, one video per module. I built it as ICM, because that's just how I build now. Numbered stage folders, one agent reading the right files at the right moment, markdown carrying the context, and local scripts doing all the mechanical work that never needed a model in the first place. Her voice cloned from a module she'd already recorded, the deck walked and exported as frames, one script and one audio file per slide. The durations of those audio files become the cue sheet that stitches the whole thing together, so there's no separate timing step to get wrong. One module's through it end to end. 21 slides, 21 scripts, 21 audio files, one finished MP4. And there's around ten hours of modules to put through the same pipeline. As an 18-year-old that's a really good opportunity, and it's going to generate me some serious income. I wouldn't have built any of it without what I picked up in here first, so thank you to everyone who's answered a question of mine along the way. Nothing's finished yet. I've still got a lot to come and plenty I haven't cracked. It just felt worth stopping on rather than quietly getting on with the next thing.
