Today on the call, Kirk asked everyone to share more of what we’re actually using ShortPulse for. So I figured I’d show one of the projects I’ve been playing with. And this one has gotten kinda ridiculous. 😂 It started with a simple idea: What if there was a digital marketing agency that felt a little like The Office? Different employees. Different departments. Ridiculous client conversations. Business owners just trying to figure out what the hell is going on. So I started building The Agency. I created the SEO manager. The content manager. The social media manager. Developers. Account managers. Salespeople. Paid search. Reporting. The whole bloated digital marketing org chart. 😂 And every one of them is now saved as a character inside ShortPulse. Then I needed clients. So I started creating business-owner character sheets too. Roofers. HVAC owners. Electricians. Landscapers. Remodelers. Garage-door companies. Each one has a business, personality, look, background, things they care about, things that piss them off, etc. So now when I come up with a new skit, I’m not really “creating characters” anymore. I’m casting an episode. And that’s where this has gotten really useful for me. 🤖 THE ACTUAL WORKFLOW 🤖 Most of my day right now involves building other stuff with AI. I might have Claude working on something that takes a while. And when Claude is cooking, instead of just sitting there watching it work, I’ll jump over to ChatGPT. I’ll have some stupid idea like: “What if a roofer asks the agency to change one picture on his website…and somehow it becomes a $300 development project?” That’s usually about as developed as the idea is. 😂 Then I kick it back and forth with ChatGPT for maybe 10 minutes. Who should be in this one? Which Agency employee makes sense? Which business owner should we use? How ridiculous should the conversation get? What’s the punchline? What does Tally say at the end? Once we have it, ChatGPT writes the ShortPulse production prompt around the characters I already have saved.

So I might have gotten a little carried away with this one. 😂 I just finished a 12-and-a-half-minute YouTube video featuring AI robots, cinematic comedy scenes, recurring characters, and an AI sidekick named Tally who apparently exists just to insult me. And 100% of the AI-generated video footage was created using ShortPulse. No other AI video platforms. Just ShortPulse, ChatGPT, Final Cut Pro, and a ridiculous amount of back- and-forth. I wanted to share the process because I think there's a big difference between generating a cool AI clip and using AI video to tell an actual story. 👻 It started with a Ghostbusters joke. I was working on a project using ChatGPT and Claude together when I randomly thought: "Man... I'm crossing the streams." And then I started wondering why I thought of it that way. Why do we treat different AI tools like we have to choose one or the other? What happens when you combine their strengths with your own experience and creativity? That became the concept for the video. ChatGPT and Claude became two different robots. I became the idiot standing between them. And the whole thing turned into a ridiculous Ghostbusters-inspired production. 🎥 Step 1: Record the actual video first. I started by writing a tentative script and recording my talking-head footage. "Tentative" is doing some heavy lifting there because once the camera's rolling, I tend to go off-script. 😂 I brought everything into Final Cut Pro, trimmed the footage, and organized it into seven scenes. Each scene became its own little production. 🧠 Step 2: Use ChatGPT to plan the visual storytelling. This is probably the most useful trick I discovered. I'm using the regular $20/month ChatGPT plan. For each scene, I gave ChatGPT three things: - The rough-cut video. - Closed captions exported from Final Cut Pro, including timestamps. - My original tentative script. The script showed what I intended to say. The captions showed what I actually said and exactly when. And the video provided visual context.

Forgot to post this in the ShortPulse group! So I knew that this was going to be a challenge when Scotty and Kirk announced the 7th being the soft release of Short Pulse. I'm away from home this week at Nationals for dance. So needless to say...I'm not supposed to be working on my silly little music videos!! Nevertheless...I couldn't help myself!!! Here is the Bubba Moh version of My Own Man! I used ShortPulse for everything except the lipsync. I used Kling Motion Control for that. But this time I didn't get too intricate with it...i used 25-30 second clips and ran with it. I wanted to use as much ShortPulse footage as possible. For ShortPulse...the first thing I did was add my prompts. When I create my music videos, I have a Project in Claude. The first thing I do is create the image prompts. But I have some anchors that I use for each prompt. Before ShortPulse I would have to copy everything into my Notes app on my mac. Then I would have to click back and forth, copying the anchor, then the individual prompt for the image. Ex. CHARACTER ANCHOR: Bubba Moh — large heavily-built man, broad shoulders and thick forearms, bald head, full dark beard streaked grey, mid-30s–40s, match reference. Wearing a dark navy sleeveless hoodie over a plain tee, no jewelry, no props that warp. Photoreal cinematic music-video still, 35–50mm feel, shallow depth of field, fine film grain, 16:9, no text or captions. WOUND STATE LIGHTING ANCHOR: single hard source — one bare bulb / work lamp / high window shaft. Warm bulb color but crushed and high-contrast, deep black shadow eating the frame edges, the room around him unlit. Isolated pool of light in darkness. ANSWER STATE LIGHTING ANCHOR: soft ambient daylight filling the whole room, morning window fill, corners visible, nothing hard pointing at him. Warm but even, ordinary, lived-in. Lights simply on. So these were the anchors that I used...then the first image prompt is this: 1-A — CORE · Bookend A (load-bearing) [CHARACTER ANCHOR] + [WOUND LIGHTING]. Wide-ish medium shot, locked static camera, eye-level. Bubba sits at a plain wooden kitchen table, camera-left, elbows on the table, one hand loosely clenched into a fist resting on the wood. An empty mismatched wooden chair faces him across the table, camera-right, unoccupied. A single bare bulb hangs low over the table, hard warm light on his face and fists, the rest of the kitchen swallowed in black. He stares at the empty chair, jaw set, not sad — hard. Night.
