Pictory AI Tutorial 2024 | How to Create Faceless Videos (Full Guide)

Introduction

Victory AI is the best taxi video platform this means you can paste in a script and have a full video generated by using AI technology within just a few minutes and just a few clicks. Here’s how that works: You simply paste in the script in your script editor, you click proceed, you then choose a template. Pick 3 AI is going to generate the storyboard within just one minute your full video will now be done. You can then choose to add a voiceover, background music, change the text, change the clips. You’re done. Your full YouTube video is now completed.

That’s the short version, but in this full Pick 3 AI course, I’m going to show you step by step how you can use the entire software to make the best videos possible. With that being said, here’s what I’m going to show you in today’s video. I’ll leave timestamps in the description down below as well. First of all, I’m going to walk you through every feature on Pick 3 AI so that you understand how it works and what you can potentially do with this. Then I’m going to show you an amazing strategy to create the best possible script for Pick 3 AI specifically. I’ll then show you how you can actually turn the script into the video.

Then I’ll show you how you can change the clips if you want to, change the text, change the layout or anything you might want to change. I’ll then show you how you can add a voiceover within the Pick 3 software or your own voiceover in case you want to. Then we’ll finish up the video adding background music, adding a custom logo and changing the style according to your brand colors. Last but not least, I’ll show you all the other features inside Pick 3 such as the article of video editing, videos using text and visuals to video features. If you follow along that entire process, at the end of this video you’ll be a Pick 3 AI professional.

This video costs a lot of time to make, so please leave a like on the video, that would help me out a lot and I appreciate it. To get started, we need to create an account. In the description down below, I’ll leave a link that allows you to get a free trial in case you want to follow along the process. After creating an account, you will end up on the dashboard which looks like this. You've got the scripted video feature, you've got article to video, edit videos using text, and visuals to video.

I’m going to start off with scripted video because that is the most important feature. In order to get that going, you want to click on proceed which is then going to load up the script editor. Now in here, you can then load in your script. I’ve prepared this little script right here about Amsterdam. I’m going to paste this in and I can now generate my video. Later in the video, I’m going to show you how you can create a full script using ChatGPT, so stay tuned for that. But right now, I want to show you how this works. So right now what you want to avoid doing mainly is making sure that your sentences are not too long in the script.

What I’m going to do is put an enter and a space between every part of my script. This makes sure that my subtitles are not going to be too long because Pick 3 AI will automatically add subtitles to my video. And then just to showcase that to you, I will leave the last sentence way too long so that you can see what that results in. This one also needs to be shorter, just like that. Then what you want to do next as soon as you’ve structured your script properly is click on proceed.

Next up, you need to choose a template. Now a lot of these templates are kind of fancy or they try to be fancy but not that useful. So what I recommend doing is scrolling down and choosing the subtle yellow or subtitles thin one. There are quite a few other templates on here like this one, this one, this one, and basically every other one here, but most of them don’t really fit well if you want to make professional-style kind of YouTube videos. So what I recommend doing and what I’m gonna do for this demo is choose subtitle yellow.

So you want to choose a template that you like, then click this one right here. If you want to do YouTube, you can also do Instagram reels or normal Instagram posts, for example. And then what is happening right now is that they're creating the storyboard. Now the storyboard, which you’ll see in a minute, is basically the Pick 3 AI video editor. So they're currently busy first of all reading the script, then adding subtitles to the video as well as choosing clips in the background so that your entire video is now done.

So I welcome you to Pick 3 AI, this is what the layout looks like, this is where we’ll be creating our video. What I’m going to do first is show you all the basics and show you the possibilities and how it works. And then after that, I’ll create another full video for you step by step so that you can follow along the process after understanding how it works. So this is Pick 3 AI, this is called the storyboard. Right here, you’ll see your entire script that you just loaded in.

So we’ve got scene number one, scene number two, three, four, and that goes on and on. Starting off with scene number one, I want to explain the basics. So on the left you’ll see your script, on the right you’ll see the video that is automatically generated. The way they generate this is that they read the script and then they put a clip in the background that matches what is being talked about at that specific part.

So here I’m talking about Venice, so they’ll put a clip of Venice in the background. However, sometimes they might be wrong, wrong because my video is about Amsterdam. What do you do? You simply go to visuals and then you type in whatever it is that you want to find a clip about. So if I want Amsterdam or more specific the Amsterdam canals, I type in Amsterdam canals and all the clips then show up.

What I can then do is click on one of them, for example, this one, and it's going to be selected and automatically be put into the background of that specific scene, and that's how you can change your entire video. This makes it really fast to go through your entire video and edit everything. For example, this clip right there is horrible. So I go to visuals, I type in whatever I want to add, in this case just clips of Amsterdam, I scroll down, I click on this one, and there we go.

And that's how you can start building out your entire video allowing you to get a video done at an insane pace. Next up, what you can do if there’s too much text is split up the text, which you do by simply selecting the part where you want to split this up, click split scene, and there we go.

As you can see, I just split up the text. Once again, if I don't like that background clip, what I’ll do, I’ll type in Amsterdam cycling and there we go. We’ll find people cycling in Amsterdam. Now the reason these clips are so great is that they've partnered up with storyblocks. Storyblocks is a stock footage website that normally already costs thirty dollars a month, which I’m actually paying for my other faceless YouTube channels. But with Pick 3 AI, it's embedded into the software, which is a huge pro because this allows you to get clips from basically anywhere and basically from anything.

So the way you would go about this is you click on every scene, you change the clip, and your entire video is then done. You can, of course, change the text, the font, the sizes, everything, but I'll show you how to do that later on in the video. What you can then do is make sure you add background music or use the built-in voice over. This is huge as well because all you need to do is simply click apply, like I just did, and my entire voiceover is now done as well as synced to the subtitles and the entire video, which means I am now ready to download my video and have an amazing full video done.

Here's what that video might look like: Amsterdam, the capital city of the Netherlands, is located in the western Netherlands within the province of North Holland. I just generated that video within just five minutes! Isn't that amazing?

What I’m going to do right now is show you from A to Z step by step how you can start building out an entire video. If you want to skip parts or find something back, once again, I'll leave timestamps in the description down below.

Now that you get the basics of Pick 3 AI, I want to make a video from start to finish. The video that I want to make in this full course is a similar one to "The 10 Cheapest Countries in Europe 2023." The reason I chose a video like this is that it fits the Pick 3 AI style perfectly. As you can see, this video is about the 10 cheapest countries. It has 130,000 views on a small channel with just 1k subscribers, and it is indeed monetized, making this a perfect video to make with Pick 3 AI.

What I’m going to do is click on proceed to load up the script editor, and now it's time to make our video. For that, we need a script. What do we need in order to get that script done? First of all, we need the 10 cheapest countries in Europe, and then we need information and things to do in each of these countries so that we can make an interesting script and generate an interesting video just like this one. Another reason why I chose to make a video like this is that I think we can make a very similar or even better video in terms of the quality than this video. So if this video is already getting 130,000 views and on this channel alone you can see it doesn't need to be monetized with just four videos, it's the most popular one, I think we can make a very similar and even better video like this one.

So getting that started, we need a script. We've got multiple ways to do that so that we can load it into the script editor and have our full video generated. Option number one, we can write it ourselves. Option number two, we can hire a freelancer to do this for us. Or number three, we can use ChatGPT. I’m going to use the latter.

If you want to skip the script creation part, skip to this part of the video. I still recommend you watch it because I’m going to show you very in detail how to make a full script using ChatGPT that you can then paste into Pick 3 AI and your full video will be done at a crazy high-quality level.

The first thing I ask ChatGPT is what are the 10 cheapest countries in Europe. This gave us the list of the 10 cheapest countries. Next up, I asked it to write an intro for my YouTube video about the 10 cheapest countries in Europe and I asked it to include a funny fact about one of these countries and this is where we’re gonna pick it up from now.

So this is the result that it generated. What I recommend you do is analyze this yourself. So it starts off by saying welcome to my channel where we explore travel tips and blah blah blah. I want to cut out all the fluff. So what I’m going to do instead, instead of copying it from here, I’m going to copy it where the storyline starts which is right here. If you’re dreaming of a European adventure but don’t want to break the bank, you’re in the right place. And that is exactly where I’m going to start the script.

This is a perfect introduction for our video. Copy. Now what I’m going to do is paste it right here. Don’t worry about the background color or the structure just yet, we’re going to adjust that later on in the video so that it fits for Pick 3 AI. First, I want to build out my entire video. So we have the introduction. What I’m going to say now, here are the 10 cheapest countries:

The 10 cheapest countries in Europe that you must visit starting off with number 10 which was out of our list that we generated using ChatGPT Hungary. So I’m gonna say Hungary and now we’re gonna let ChatGPT do the work. So what I’m gonna say is I’m making a YouTube video... I’m making a YouTube video about the 10 cheapest countries. Can you give me more information about Hungary including the best free things to do for tourists and the most beautiful places in Hungary include restaurants as well as good hotels to stay at and there we go, hit enter.

As you can see, I gave it a very detailed prompt, so I asked it and told it that we’re making a video about the 10 cheapest countries. Then if it can give me more information about number 10 which in this case is Hungary, I asked it to include the best free things to do for tourists, beautiful places as well as restaurants to eat in and hotels to stay at. As you can see, it’s then going to give us a very detailed answer. If you just say can you give me information about Hungary, it’s just going to go at random, whereas right now it’s going to give us a very structured very detailed sum up of things to do in Hungary.

And the best part is we can copy that prompt and use it for all the countries up in our list. So I can copy it and change Hungary for Poland, Poland for Bulgaria and so forth and so on. What I can do is simply scroll down, it’s still not done yet which is pretty cool, and I can analyze the information of course we can adjust it, we can copy it directly, that is up to you. What I’m going to do right now first of all is analyze it. I’m going to start off by reading this: Hungary is a country located in Central Europe famous for its stunning architecture, rich history, delicious cuisine and... blah blah blah. As you can see, for tourists visiting Hungary, the top three things to do include exploring Budapest, visiting, and... as you can see, right now it’s a story instead of a very detailed structured one, two three, do this one, two three, do this, do that. So this one is much better because we have to line up clips from Pick 3 with the story that is being told and the same goes for the YouTube channels here.

They’re not just gonna say number one, do this, this and this, number two, do this, this and this, they’re gonna tell a story because people appreciate stories more and they’ll keep watching. So what we can now do is pick it up from here, Hungary is a country located in... and then we can go down copy all of this and there we go, we can copy this, go to our script, paste it and then we’ll say number nine and then we’re gonna go back to ChatGPT, scroll up, number nine was Poland.

So what I’m going to say is that is Poland and then what I can do next is go back to the prompt that I gave it here, I’m making a video about... I can copy this, I can paste it in here... and then instead of saying Hungary I’m gonna say Poland. Then I’m going to give it the same prompt just like that. Hit enter and there we go, it’s then going to generate it and then once again I'll ask it to do it more in a storytelling way. Now you can also do that right away. I'll show you how to do that in the next prompt that I’m going to give it for the eighth country, but you get the point. This is how we can start building out an entire video.

Now as you can see what I like here if you keep it within one chat in ChatGPT right now, it already does this in a storytelling way, whereas the first time it did this, it now learned that I don’t like that and I want it in a storyline. Right now in Poland, as you can see, is doing this once again like this because it says, I’m sorry in my previous response I provided information about Hungary instead of Poland. Here’s the correct information for Poland.

Now what I like here is that it did this based on the prompts that I gave it about Hungary like I just said. So it still includes hotels, spas, things to do, all of that stuff within just one prompt. So I can now copy this, go back to our script, paste it, and there we go. Then I can go to number eight, number eight on the list and you can do this in multiple ways. You can say number eight on the list is number seven on the list is... blah blah blah. I’m just gonna say number eight on the list is and then we’re gonna go back up, I believe it was Bulgaria. Yes, it was Bulgaria.

So we’re gonna go through the script type in Bulgaria and then we’re gonna change Poland for Bulgaria and then hopefully Bulgaria is a stunning country located in southeast Europe known for its scenic landscapes, rich history, and affordability. For tourists visiting and you can see it generates the entire script right away. Now I’m not gonna bore you by doing the same thing for numbers seven, six, five, four all up until one. So what I’m going to do instead is just do this myself and then I'll get back to you once the entire thing is done.

And there we go, my script is now fully done. I've made some adjustments, I kept it at five countries as well as changed the intro up a little bit and then I also want to show you an alternative way of creating that script. So what you can do is go to current YouTube videos, click on the three dots right there, click on show transcript, click on these dots, toggle timestamps and you can take the entire script from an existing video and then rewrite it using ChatGPT.

Now, do I recommend this one over the first method that I show you? I’m not sure. Is it easier? Yes. Does it create a quality video? Kind of. Is it better than creating it originally? I don't think so. But what you can do is say, please rewrite this script using the same structure. Then you simply paste the script you hit enter and as you can see it’s then going to generate a brand new script for you which you can then take and then that’s your script. That’s an alternative way.

But anyway, right now I am done with my script. What I’m gonna do is copy the entire script and by the way if you want to know how you can remove that gray background, I’ll leave a link to a simple tutorial video about how to do that in the description down below. Then paste it and there we go, we’re ready. As you can see the structure is now correct. It takes some time to do that, but it’s going to pay off massively, it’s going to save you a lot of time. Then you want to click on scene settings and make sure that it says has create new scenes on and then line breaks because every single time there's a new line that's going to create a new scene.

Click on proceed and then choose a template. The one I’m going to choose for this video is going to be subtitle yellow. I don't recommend any of these weird other kinds of templates
