AI: The Video Director (7-stage build)

When you ask the AI to build a video from a brief, it runs a 7-stage director flow — establishing the look, writing a script, designing and animating each scene, adding effects, then sound and captions — authoring GSAP scene timelines as it goes.

Where: AI assistant (video project) → describe the video — Ask the AI to make a video

Key ideas

• The 7 stages: Visual direction → script → design system → design scenes → animate → effects → sound & captions.
• GSAP-authored: Scenes come with real animated timelines (stagger, text-split, draw/morph), not static slides.
• Media-first: It prefers your assets, then stock (Pexels/Unsplash), then generation.

Steps

1. Open the AI in a video project.
2. Describe the video (and approve the visual direction when asked).
3. Let it design, animate, and score the scenes.
4. Review and tweak per scene.
