Same character, new video. Mrs. Henderson is back. 🥵

I'm putting out a new YouTube video every day (or trying to 😅), and I make the characters with Kling 4 in ShortPulse. Mrs. Henderson was in yesterday's video. Could she come back today and still look like herself?

She did. Same condo, same sun hat, same dead AC. This time she skips Google and yells at ChatGPT like it's a walkie-talkie.

How I did it:

🧑‍🎨 Character sheets, not starting images. I make every shot of her from her character sheet. That's what keeps her looking like the same person from video to video, and in the thumbnail too.

🎬 AI B-roll for a data video. This one is a real test (ChatGPT vs Google in 10 cities), so it's full of numbers. Kling clips break that up: a robot reading the internet, a closed shop at midnight, a guy sipping hot cocoa in the desert. Something new on screen every few seconds.

🤖 My AI cohost is in it too. Tally's lines are ShortPulse clips, with her own voice.

What I learned:

- A recurring character saves you a ton of time. The audience already knows her, so you skip the setup.

- Plan every clip in the script first. You always know exactly what to make.

- Short clips win. A few seconds each is plenty.

Anyone else bringing characters back across videos? How are you keeping them consistent? 👇
