How to Use Al to Generate Your VEO 3 Al Video Generator Prompts...

For a moment, I thought my career as a video content creator might be over.

AI video generators like Google's Veo 3 are getting incredibly powerful.

→ Don't know how to write a prompt? Ask AI.

→ Don't know how to describe a scene? Ask AI.

→ Want to replicate a style? Show AI.

It can feel like the technical skills we've spent years building are becoming obsolete.

But then I realized our role isn't disappearing; it's just changing. What's left for us is to be the creative director—to guide the tool and inject the soul into the narrative.

Our job is to go beyond a simple request and craft a prompt with nuance and specific details. For my latest project, I didn't just ask for "a video of a watermelon." I gave the AI a very specific scene to build.

Here's the exact prompt I used:

"A close-up, top-down shot of a hand with pale skin and manicured nails using a dark brown wooden knife to slice through a dark green and black striped wooden watermelon. Capture the moment a slice falls away, revealing the dark red interior with black seeds. Emphasize the smooth slicing motion and the crisp ASMR sounds of the wood being cut. Use natural lighting and a shallow depth of field to bring out the texture of the wood and the contrast between the watermelon and the knife. The knife blade is embossed with a tiny text 'Adrian Video Image'."

This is where human creativity makes the difference.

Macbook Air M1 Case

I bought a transparent case for my MacBook Air M1 . It came with a free screen protector, a keyboard cover, and some rubber plugs to cover the ports. Check it out! https://youtu.be/d-wALSd3nn8 I didn't expect the rubber plugs. It was a nice surprise. The case fits snuggly, with access to all the ports. The keyboard cover is almost invisible to the eye. I have no intention to use the screen protector. Why? I need to see the true color of the display for my YouTube videos. ~ Adrian Lee @Adrian Video Image The video was recorded on iPhone 12 Pro Max with Filmic Pro app in 4K 60fps and edited with Capcut.

FCPX - The storage device "Macintosh HD" is almost full

The message "The storage device Macintosh HD is almost full" appeared when I was editing a video with Final Cut Pro X on my new Apple Macbook Air M1. Final Cut Pro Taking up Too Much Space My Macbook Air M1 had only 256GB of storage onboard. My raw footage was only about 9GB. The biggest file was the FCPX project files itself at about 140GB! How did 9GB become 140GB? There is not enough disk space for my Final Cut Pro. Why Is Final Cut Pro Taking up So Much Storage Final Cut Pro renders files in high-quality media so that we can playback our edits smoothly direct from the timeline. It creates multiple HUGE high-quality files of our footage in the background. It is a good thing, so as to maintain high-quality final edited video, BUT not a good thing for a laptop with only 256GB. How to Clear Disk Space on Final Cut Pro The question is how to delete the rendered files in FCPX? 1. Select the library in FCPX... 2. Go to Files > Delete Generated L...

Sony Vegas Pro 8 Tutorial - Multicamera Editing

Sony Vegas Pro 8 makes it easier to edit videos from different cameras right from the timeline. You can capture and edit video for a single scene from 2 or more cameras or for a single scene shot a few times with one camera. Here is a tutorial of a Multicamera Edit of a drama I shot. The drama was acted out four times to the public and being a non-profit organization, the client have budget only for one videographer. For each of the 4 acts, the camcorder (Sony HDR-FX7 High Definition Camcorder) was placed at 4 different positions and shot in various angles. Multicamera edit is accomplished in only 8 steps with the Sony Vegas Pro 8. Step #1: Capture Multicamera Video Clips Use the normal Sony Vegas Video Capture function to capture recordings from each camera. Give each capture filename a unique name. Enable scene detection before capturing so that each segment is captured as a separate clip. Step #2 : Layout Video Clips on Timeline Drag and drop video clips over each other on the...
