Important Announcements of the Week:
➞ GENERAL ANNOUNCEMENT: UPDATES TO OUR AI SPOKESPERSON VIDEO WORKFLOW
In case you missed it, on Tuesday (10/20), we introduced a new, more streamlined workflow for creating our customized AI Spokesperson videos, led by a newer addition to the team, Ryan Maiani!
Key Updates:
- No More Video Editing: Freelancers no longer need to assemble or edit AI Spokesperson videos. Simply submit your prompt using the "Prompt of Veo3" tool, and Ryan will take care of the creation and editing.
- Focus on Fine-Tuning Prompts: Use the "Fine Tune" generator field to detail settings, backgrounds, and demographic traits matching the client’s target location.
- Bitrix & Branding Updates:
- Add main site HEX Color Codes to the new designated Bitrix field for video title branding.
- Move finished or near-finished sites to the new "AI Video Creation" stage in Bitrix.
- Once Ryan uploads the video and adds the Vimeo link to Bitrix, copy the embed URL and paste it into Duda as usual.
