AI just unlocked a hidden goldmine and it's probably not what you'd think.

Content made for kids generates billions of dollars every year.

Imagine an entire business empire built around videos like this.

Until now you'd need an entire production team.

We're talking animators, voice actors and musicians.

But you can now build everything you need with AI.

I'm Jack, I've spent over a decade creating visual effects for many of the biggest brands on the planet

and now i'm using ai to reinvent creative workflows in this

video i'll teach you how to create animated musical content

that kids and even parents will love

so by the end you can build your very own children's

animation channel i truly believe this is one of the biggest money making opportunities in the ai space

but the door won't stay open for long trust me

if you do enjoy today's content be sure to whack a like on there for me

and consider subscribing all right let's get into it.

So we're going to start today's video by looking at image generation.

This is where we'll create our characters and our world.

Then we'll move on to animating story -driven scenes, followed by animating musical scenes,

including how to generate your own nursery rhyme style music using AI.

But for anyone who's not really buying into this idea, let me show you the market we're targeting here.

We can start with a channel like Dave and Ava, who have just shy of 16 million subscribers.

I'm sure you guys would have also heard of Pinkfong.

These are the team behind Baby Shark.

They've got almost 85 million subscribers.

And then we have Cocomelon, who have 200 million subscribers.

And just taking a look at their videos, pretty much every single one has millions of views.

These guys are making a ton of money.

And this is the point that I'm trying to get across.

Even though you might not take this type of content seriously, it represents a huge money -making opportunity.

I've got two young children so I understand just how strong this content can be,

especially if it's actually decent quality and teaches the child something beneficial.

As you've seen, the right video in this niche can generate millions of views and make the creator a lot of money.

So the first step is to build out our visuals and to do this we're over on Higgsfield AI.

This is where we're going to prepare all of our assets that we'll animate later on in the video.

The beauty here is that once we have our characters

and locations set we can actually reuse them to create any type of content for our channel that we want.

And you'll notice that

when I start pulling up these images I actually jump between Nano Banana Pro

and GPT Image 2 and that's

because I think Nano Banana is the best at locking in style

but then GPT Image 2 is much better at building things like character sheets for example

and making these kind of technical edits.

The first thing I wanted to generate was the main character for our kids animation.

So I started off by actually uploading some image references of myself.

I added a short description and then went ahead and asked Nano Banana to remove my beard.

Now the part of the prompt that's actually doing all of

the work is this really large section at the end which is defining our style.

And this is something that I actually put together using Claude.

So I uploaded a bunch of references of kids animation

that I knew was really successful and that I personally thought was decent quality

and then I asked Claude to perform an analysis to work out why this visual style works

so well and particularly why it appeals to children.

And a bit further down the chat I asked Claude to pull all of this analysis together

and put me together a style prompt that I could use.

Quick tip as well I noticed that Claude was referencing existing IP

so I went ahead and just asked it to remove any mention of

that and I got this prompt which is the one

that I actually copied and then took over to use inside of Higgsfield.

And just so you guys know, all of the prompts and materials that I used for this project will be available for free over on my school community.

Link for that down below in the description.

So I really loved this first image here.

It was exactly the type of style that I was going for.

So once I was happy with this starting image, the next step was to go ahead and click on this icon here to use it as a reference going forward.

You want to go ahead and switch from Nano Banana Pro across to GPT Image 2.

And to get our character sheet, we have this really long prompt here.

Let me go ahead and break it all down.

First, I'm describing our character once again to be really specific about how I want him to look, but also what I want him to wear.

And then I'm actually dropping in that same style prompt that we made with Claude earlier on.

So these first two kind of sections of the prompt really about locking in

that style and consistency and the final section here is just a framework

which is telling gpt image 2

that i want to have various different views of the same character

and the reason a character sheet is so important is

that it's going to show the ai video model we'll use

to animate later on in the video what our characters look like from every single angle

if we don't provide this information this is where things tend

to go wrong the ai ends up having to guess

and ultimately you waste your credits and then what i went ahead

and did is using

that very first image as our reference created various different characters

in the same style now this prompt could actually be really really simple

so i just said in the same art style with no clothes

or accessories show a cute crocodile stood up so we also went ahead and made a bear we've got a duckling, a rabbit, a fox cub,

an owl and a hedgehog.

And as you can see I ended up using the exact same character sheet process once again

so that we have these details for our additional characters too.

And something else I built was this lineup here where we

have each of our characters stood next to each other

and I thought this was important to define the height especially compared to our main character here.

I figured it would be kind of weird

if the animals were the same height as him

or even taller would just be not the vibe that we were going for.

So again we're providing more context to the AI by generating this.

So here I'm referencing all of our character sheets

and another pretty simple prompt to describe the lineup and just define

that I only want one of each animal to be present.

And using a very similar process once again we can actually create various different locations.

So we have like a nice little town here, we've got like a playroom and we've also got a bathroom as well.

And what's really important is that everything feels like it belongs to the same style and ultimately the same world.

100

And this allows us to combine our character sheets with our designed location to actually place our characters into this environment.

101

Again, a very simple prompt here to get this level of results.

102

But the point being that we can place any character into any environment to create just endless stories.

103

We're building out this really diverse library of image assets that we can go on to animate to create our videos.

104

The next step of the process is to finally start bringing our scenes to life.

105

So to do this, you want to head up to the top left hand corner

106

and head over to use C -Dance 2.

107

This is the best AI video model on the market right now

108

and actually has been for a while now no one seems to be able to come close to what ByteDance have built.

109

So the first thing we want to go ahead and do is select any relevant image assets.

110

So for example we want the character sheet of the boy, the crocodile and the rabbit as well as the image we generated for our kind of playroom location.

111

We also want to upload an audio reference of our character's voice.

112

This means we can generate as many videos as we'd like but the voice remains the same.

113

To do this I pulled one of my first generations into Premiere Pro

114

and I just cut the sequence down so that it was only the dialogue left.

115

I then went ahead and actually hid the video itself and went across to export.

116

Now for some reason actually kicking this out as an mp3 file just doesn't work

117

but if you export it as a blank video with

118

that dialogue track on there that's what's going to function really well inside of c dance 2

119

so we can go ahead and throw in this blank video here

120

which contains our voice reference now the missing piece of the puzzle is our text prompt

121

and you don't want to just vaguely describe the type of scene

122

that you're after c dance 2 needs a lot of technical information to actually give you the output you want.

123

This can be pretty complex to do, but I'm going to show you a method which really simplifies things.

124

The first thing I want you to go ahead and do is open up a tool like ChatGPT, Gemini, or Claude in my case,

125

and we want to upload this MD file here.

126

As I mentioned earlier, this will be available on the school community.

127

This MD file is going to give Claude a really clear framework to use, meaning we can give it a pretty minimal loose description of what we're after

128

and it will give us back that really detailed technical prompt.

129

You also want to go ahead and upload any relevant images

130

so this is our character sheets as well as the location

131

and then we want to go ahead and describe the type of scene that we'd like.

132

For example show the boy teaching the crocodile and rabbit about the importance of tidying up.

133

There's a small basket in the corner.

134

He teaches them to put their toys away when they finish playing by putting them in that basket.

135

The video ends on a high they're all happy and celebrate, mummy and daddy will be happy.

136

We can go ahead and send this off.

137

And you're going to get back something like this, where the scene is actually broken up into individual shots dictated by these timestamps.

138

Claude is describing the framing and any camera movement, as well as the action that's taking place and any necessary dialogue.

139

From our very simplistic input we've got back this incredibly detailed prompt specifically built to function with C -Dance 2.

140

So we can go ahead and copy this

141

and take it straight over to Higgs field and drop it in the text prompt field.

142

A quick note that my framework always adds this to the end of every prompt.

143

It's essentially telling C -Dance 2 not to put any music in the generation

144

which just makes things easier from an editing perspective.

145

If you're trying to stitch together multiple generations and they have music baked into them it becomes a nightmare.

146

This allows you to add your own music.

147

Equally if you wanted to just let C -Dance 2 do its thing you just go ahead

148

and remove the end of the prompt like that.

149

And what's really useful as well is we can add an additional line

150

that says ensure the voice matches and then

151

if we hit the at key on our keyboard we can select video one

152

which is the blank video that contains our voice reference.

153

This means you can reuse the reference for as many video generations as you like

154

and C -Dance 2 is going to make sure that the voice remains consistent.

155

Let me go ahead and show you the result

156

that I got from using this exact process let's tidy up

157

when we're done playing everything goes in the basket just pop it in nice and easy

158

great job you two look how tidy it is now and

159

that keeps mom and daddy happy too

160

so this approach is perfect for building out scenes where music

161

isn't really the focus it's more about the storytelling let me go ahead

162

and show you guys a few more generations

163

that i put together to act as a bit of a

164

proof of concept firstly we have this what's in the box

165

style video what's in the box shall we take a look

166

what do you think it could be kids absolutely love this type of video you can see

167

that the animation came out really really clean

168

and this is kind of inspired by something like miss rachel

169

it's a bit of a recurring segment in her content

170

and we can also do more educational style content where we're actually teaching children about things like letters numbers

171

and in this example shapes let's look at some shapes today circle square triangle

172

star heart those were our shapes today see you next time again really slick professional feeling animation.

173

But what I want you guys to focus on is that each of these generations, even though they're separate, they feel like they're part of the same world.

174

And finally, something that my son has been learning recently, how to brush his teeth.

175

Let's learn how to brush our teeth.

176

Wet your brush, then a little toothpaste.

177

Brush in little circles all the way around.

178

Don't forget the back teeth too, then a gentle brush on your tongue.

179

Spit it out into the sink.

180

Rinse

181

and you're all done really amazing to see the level of

182

quality you can get by using this process combining our image

183

and audio references with our detailed text prompt engineered by claude we get a result like this but what

184

if we want music to play a much more important role

185

in our videos at the start of this tutorial we were speaking about channels like pink thong

186

and coca melon and a real driver for them is musical content

187

so how do we actually go about building content like this

188

for our own channel there are various different ways to generate music with ai

189

but in my opinion the best tool for this is a

190

platform called suno we can actually use suno to generate these

191

kind of nursery rhyme style songs combine this with our video generations to get musical storytelling content and

192

if you want to take things one step further there's actually

193

a technique I'm going to show you in a minute where we can have our characters lip sync along to the music.

194

Now you can actually use ChatGPT, Gemini or Claude to get you set up and ready for generating your music.

195

You can see

196

that I first asked Claude to write me a style prompt with a similar vibe to channels like Miss Rachel

197

or Dave and Ava.

198

I'm saying I want it to be catchy children's music

199

and I ended up getting a prompt like this

200

so over in suno if you go over to the create tab

201

and then click on advance you're going to see you've got more options i went ahead

202

and just dropped that style prompt into this field here

203

and next i actually asked claude to help me construct the lyrics for our song

204

so i'm saying now let's think about a few different things

205

the track could be about it needs to be aimed at young kids let's say between the age of one and four

206

and i did mention at this point it would be useful to kind of cover understanding the world

207

or children understanding their own emotions my four -year -old boy

208

for example his emotions are just completely all over the place he hasn't quite got to

209

that stage yet where he can kind of keep them under control

210

or fully understand them so this was particularly relevant in my case i guess

211

and you can see that i got back a whole bunch of different ideas from claude

212

but its instinct was also to focus on the kind of

213

emotional side of things I started to hone in this idea of it's okay to have a little cry

214

and then the concept of big feelings came up.

215

The idea here feelings that just feel completely overwhelming essentially

216

and with a little bit more back and forth once again Claude is saying

217

that the concept of big feelings in terms of like emotional literacy is the way to go.

218

I just say go for it, fire away and we get back this brilliant section of lyrics

219

which just feels exactly like what you'd imagine to hear on a channel like Miss Rachel or Cocomelo.

220

So I went ahead and copied this

221

and dropped it straight over into the lyrics section on Suno

222

and by hitting generate we get back a result like this sometimes I feel happy

223

and I want to jump around now I know as adults

224

we're kind of pre -programmed to cringe at this type of music

225

but when I tell you

226

that my one -year -old was one side of the house I started playing this song

227

and he sprinted all the way through the house to get to my laptop

228

and listen I'm being completely honest that happened just this morning

229

that for me was enough proof that i was on to something here so now

230

that we're happy with our generation we can click on these

231

three dots here we can get it downloaded as an mp3

232

or a wav file or we can download the individual stems

233

and this is what you want to do

234

if you want to use your suno generation to create lip sync

235

when you click into get stems it's going to give you

236

a few different options here you want to go for the middle one

237

which is split from mix this is going to give you your lead vocal

238

and then all of the instrumental tracks

239

and then inside of your editing software of choice you want to go ahead

240

and cut out the section of the song

241

that you want to use for the lip sync here we

242

just have the vocal track we don't want the instrumental as part of this

243

so for example we've got this section here it's okay you're not on your own

244

so once again we want to go ahead and export this as a blank video.

245

Back over on Higgsfield using C -Dance 2 once again you first want to upload any relevant image references.

246

You can see here I've just put up the key visual for this scene.

247

I didn't feel I needed a character sheet

248

because it's a very brief generation where I don't want the character to be turning around

249

and doing a lot of complex movement.

250

I also then uploaded that blank video with

251

that snippet of the vocal track

252

and the text prompt for this can actually be really quite simple

253

so we're just saying a cinematic shot shows an animated character singing happily really important

254

that you also add in the lyrics for the section of the track

255

and we can go ahead and once again tag our vocal reference

256

that we uploaded now in terms of the length of your

257

generation you essentially want to match this to your vocal reference

258

maybe just add an extra second at the end for some wiggle room

259

if your vocal reference is four seconds long for example

260

but then you send off a 10 second generation scene arts 2 is going to try

261

and fill that empty space and that's where it will just produce its own lyrics

262

and music and things just get very weird very quickly with

263

that being said we've got everything set up to actually generate our lip synced video

264

so let me go ahead and show you the result we can get from this it's okay.

265

You're not on your own.

266

As you can see this is working really nicely

267

but I wanted to give you guys an example of what you can actually build by stitching together multiple generations.

268

So we're here back once again in Premiere Pro.

269

So just starting off from an audio perspective we've got a snippet from the big feelings song that I generated earlier on.

270

The top track here is the vocal track the bottom track is the instrumental

271

and then all of these bits of audio actually came along with the sea dance two generations

272

that i put together

273

so what i did was for the start of the track we've kind of just got these scenes

274

that are kind of relevant to the lyrics to add a bit more context and storytelling

275

and then at the end we've got two examples of lip

276

-syncing one with every single character singing along to the song

277

and then the example

278

that i just showed you guys where the boy version of me is getting into bed

279

and just singing those closing lines i also added these subtitles here

280

which is quite typical of this type of content

281

because it gives it that kind of sing -along vibe

282

so with a pretty basic level of editing let me go ahead

283

and show you the finished results sometimes i feel happy

284

and i want to jump around sometimes i feel angry

285

and i stomp it on the ground

286

and sometimes sometimes i don't know what i feel at all but that's okay it's okay to feel this way.

287

Big feelings come and big feelings go.

288

It's okay.

289

It's okay.

290

You're not on your own.

291

I'm not going to lie, the song did actually end up getting stuck in my head whilst I was editing this together, which is exactly what you want.

292

And I was really impressed by the overall quality of this.

293

This is exactly the type of thing that you'd expect to find on a kid's animation channel.

294

It's still just wild to me

295

that I was able to build out all of the music and visuals using nothing but AI tools.

296

With that being said guys we've now reached the end of today's video.

297

I really do hope you've enjoyed it.

298

This is a little different to the type of content

299

that I normally make so if you guys learned something today I'd really appreciate

300

if you whack a like on the video for me and consider subscribing.

301

I genuinely think making content for this niche with AI represents a massive money -making opportunity.

302

There is a definite gap in the market here, I feel.

303

I'd really encourage you guys, if you do want to try this out for yourself, to be as creative as possible.

304

Try to avoid just putting out slop.

305

It needs to be both entertaining and genuinely beneficial to the child

306

because this means that parents are also going to get on board with your content.

307

There's also a lot of brain rot within this niche

308

so I'd really try to make something that feels like it's got a thought behind it and actually has quality there.

309

Again, thank you so much for watching guys.

310

Best of luck with your own projects and I'll catch you in the next video.

311

Thank you.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
