🚀 Day 1 – AI Production Setup & Research Main Objective: Day 1 was focused on building the foundation. I did not create any ads yet. The goal was to set up all required AI platforms, explore their features, understand pricing/credits, and see how everything connects before starting production. 🔧 Platforms I Set Up & Explored 1️⃣ HeyGen - Signed up and explored the free plan. - Learned how text-to-video works (write a prompt → platform generates a production-ready video with visuals, B-roll, and edits). - Explored AI avatars (photo-based cloning + custom virtual characters). - Reviewed templates like news and presentation formats. - Understood the credit system and pricing tiers. 2️⃣ ElevenLabs - Explored text-to-speech generation. - Tested voice cloning and voice changer features. - Learned about voice isolation and sound tools. - Reviewed subscription plans and monthly credit usage. 3️⃣ Kling AI - Explored AI image and video generation (more animation-style content). - Tested motion controls and free credits. - Compared free vs paid plans. 4️⃣ Hix AI (Higgsfield) - Explored image/video generation tools. - Checked face swap and character creation options. - Reviewed pricing and limited free credits. 5️⃣ Canva + CapCut + Premiere Pro - Canva for thumbnails and simple visuals. - Premiere Pro for full professional editing. - CapCut mainly for subtitles. 📚 What I Learned - How each AI tool serves a different role (avatars, voice, video, editing). - How credit-based pricing works across platforms. - The strengths and limitations of free versions. - How these tools can combine to create AI-powered UGC ads. - Watched tutorials for every platform to fully understand workflows. ✅ Day 1 Outcome - Accounts created on all major platforms. - Features explored and tested. - Pricing & upgrade plans understood. - Clear idea of which tools I’ll use for what purpose. 🎯 Summary Day 1 was about research, setup, and understanding the ecosystem. No production yet — just building knowledge and clarity.
