Step by step AI content creator workflow architecture diagram

STEP 1

Scripting & Concept Architecture (ChatGPT & Claude)

Start by feeding historical analytics data or raw content outlines into Claude 3.5 Sonnet to map out viral title variations and structured 3-act narrative scripts. Generate exact time-stamped visual callouts for B-roll generation.

STEP 2

Visual Asset Generation (Midjourney v6)

Convert your visual cues into high-resolution graphics. Generate primary YouTube thumbnail artwork and focal point imagery using custom aspect ratio tags (`--ar 16:9`).

STEP 3

Generative B-Roll Motion (Runway Gen-3)

Import static Midjourney images into Runway Gen-3 Alpha. Apply camera motion parameters like panning and zooming to produce cinematic video clips without firing up a camera rig.

STEP 4

Vocal Narration & Studio Dubbing (ElevenLabs)

Pass your polished text script into ElevenLabs for hyper-realistic vocal delivery. Use multi-voice dialogue features if your video includes multiple characters or narrator perspectives.

STEP 5

Text-Based Video Assembly (Descript)

Import all audio tracks, visual assets, and B-roll clips into Descript. Edit the video directly through text transcription, clean up filler words with one click, and publish directly to your media platforms.
