The Laziest Way To Make Money With AI
How one AI agent built a product, five content formats, and a deployed waitlist in a single afternoon for $121 — and returned 6x.
June 1stThe argument in one line.
The missing step in AI filmmaking is starting with emotional stakes and a three-sentence story before touching any generation tool, then using character sheets and reference anchoring to maintain cinematic consistency across every shot.
Read if. Skip if.
READ IF YOU ARE…
- You want to make an AI short film but keep getting inconsistent characters between shots.
- You use AI video tools and your output feels like a demo reel rather than a story with emotional stakes.
- You want a structured scene-by-scene production workflow for AI filmmaking.
- You are interested in voice-cloning your own voice into AI-generated dialogue without losing the original delivery.
SKIP IF…
- You need a tool-agnostic workflow: this is a Higgsfield platform showcase, not a general AI filmmaking guide.
- You are making high-volume content such as ads or social clips rather than short narrative films.
The full version, fast.
AI short filmmaking fails at the prompt stage because most creators start there. The workflow reverses this: begin with a feeling and a three-sentence story synopsis, build character and location reference sheets, then use Cinema Studio multi-shot with an anchor technique where you describe the image first and drop the reference second. Voice cloning via Higgsfield Audio applies to the full audio track in one pass, preserving the original performance emotion while swapping the voice. The result is a complete narrative film made without a camera or crew.

Lines worth screenshotting.
- Starting with a prompt is the wrong move in AI filmmaking: start with a feeling and a story worth telling.
- Three sentences is all the story foundation you need: character, location, and the moment everything shifts.
- Character sheets lock every visual detail so nothing drifts between shots across a full scene.
- The anchor technique, describing the image first then dropping the character reference, produces noticeably better consistency than reference-first prompting.
- Multi-shot generation lets you chain different camera angles and movements in a single generation pass.
- Taking a screenshot of the last frame of a generated clip and using it as the start frame for the next maintains continuity without re-prompting the full setup.
- Voice cloning changes only the voice: emotion, pacing, and delivery from the original performance are preserved exactly.
- If a shot is missing mid-edit, regenerate it with the same workflow; nothing is locked until you decide to lock it.
- A large language model can serve as a prompt engineer: describe the visual feeling in plain words and ask it to translate into a model-ready prompt.
- Each scene should have a distinct visual identity to prevent the film from feeling tonally flat.
- The emotional logic of a scene matters more than visual polish: one wrong eye movement can break the entire point.
- Iteration is the skill: run it, look at it, tweak one thing in the prompt, run it again.
Emotional stakes before prompts: the AI filmmaking unlock.
WHAT TO LEARN
The reason most AI films look like demo reels is that their creators started with a prompt rather than a feeling, and the rest of the workflow follows from that first wrong move.
- Write a three-sentence story before opening any AI tool: who the character is and what is wrong with them, what location sets the emotional texture, and what the single moment is where everything shifts.
- Build character reference sheets from a hero image before animating anything: locking face, clothing, and accessories in a turnaround image is what prevents visual drift across a multi-shot scene.
- Use the anchor technique: describe the image first, then drop the reference tag, so the model anchors to your description before pulling from the uploaded sheet.
- Screenshot the last frame of a generated clip and use it as the start frame for the next generation to maintain visual continuity without re-prompting the full setup.
- Voice cloning preserves emotion and pacing from the original performance while swapping the voice; record yourself speaking and let the cloning handle the rest.
- If a shot is missing mid-edit, regenerate it with the same character sheets and workflow: nothing in AI production is locked until you decide to lock it, unlike live filming.
- Use a large language model as a prompt translator: describe the visual feeling you want in plain language and ask it to convert that into a model-ready prompt.
- Give each scene a distinct visual identity to prevent the film from feeling tonally uniform even when the story is continuous.
Terms worth knowing.
- Soul ID
- Higgsfield character model trained on about 20 photos of a real person. Once created, it can be injected into any generated scene to place that specific face in the shot.
- Character sheet
- A turnaround reference image showing a character from multiple angles with consistent clothing and accessories. Used in Cinema Studio to prevent visual drift between shots.
- Multi-shot
- A Cinema Studio mode generating multiple sequential shots in a single pass, each with its own camera movement and prompt.
- Anchor prompting
- Technique where you describe the image first and then drop the character reference, so the model anchors to the description before interpreting the reference.
- Voice cloning
- Using Higgsfield Audio to replace the voice in a generated audio track with a target voice while preserving the original emotional delivery and pacing.
- Start frame
- An image uploaded as the first frame of a generated video clip. Using a screenshot of the last frame of a previous clip as the next start frame creates visual continuity.
- Soul Cinema
- Higgsfield image generation tool optimized for cinematic output with support for Soul ID character injection.
- Cinema Studio
- Higgsfield video generation tool for animating images into shots. Supports multi-shot mode, character and prop references, and camera movement options.

00:00Hi. I'm Adil. And today, I'm doing something a lot of you have been asking for.
00:05I'm making a short film starring me with my own voice entirely with AI. I'll show you the exact workflow I use for making short films, from brainstorming the idea to the final cut.
00:17I'm using nothing but Hicksfield. No camera, no crew, no $50,000 production budget.
00:24Just Soul Cinema for generating the images, Hicksfield Audio for the voice, and Cinema Studio to bring everything to life. By the end of this video, you're gonna have a complete framework you can use to make your own short film.
00:36But first, let's see what I've made.
00:50Happy birthday, my little princess. Want a cupcake or a parade maybe? It's just a regular day, man.
00:57Nothing special. Yeah. Don't sound too excited.
00:59We can call dispatch, have them sing for you. Please don't. I'm trying to keep a low profile.
01:03Prince is starting to get older. That's paperwork.
01:06Great. Add it to the report. Subject survived another year.
01:12So what's the plan today? No alcohol. Right?
01:16My man.
01:21You know where I celebrate my birthday every year?
01:25No.
01:26Why should I? Little Central AZN spot on 5th, plastic tables, soup so hot it files a complaint.
01:32Sounds nice. Best noodles you ever had, you know what they call them? Noodles?
01:35Nah, man. They got a name. Fancy.
01:37Cultural.
01:38Lagman.
01:39Lag what? Unit 12, we got a 17 in progress. Homicide 1738
01:45on stage. 38, roger that. Is that a cop car?
01:50Yeah. Might be.
02:11Surprise, honey.
02:24Most people start with a prompt. That's the wrong move. Start with a feeling.
02:29For this film, I asked myself one question. What's a story with real emotional stakes? Something an audience actually feels.
02:37Not what looks cool, what'll get news, but's a story worth telling. I landed on this.
02:43The cop who suffers from depression. It's his birthday, and his close ones try to cheer him up.
02:49That's it. Three sentences, that's your entire foundation.
02:53From here, I mapped out three scenes. First, the locker room. Quiet, intimate.
02:59His partner notices something's off. Second, the patrol car. Casual, a little tense, his partner tries to cheer him up.
03:08Third, the surprise. The moment everything shifts. Setup, midpoint, climax.
03:15You don't need more than that for a short film. Okay. First thing, the AI needs to know my face.
03:20Let's head over to Higgs Field and select character. I'm uploading 20 photos of myself, different angles, different lighting.
03:28The more variety I give it, the better the results are gonna be. And done. The model learned my face, and now I have my personal Soul ID that I can drop into literally any scene from here on out.
03:39I wanna start with a hero shot, the cop, Me. I'm going into Soul Cinema. This thing generates cinematic images by default.
03:47I don't have to do anything special. It just comes out that way. I promise you, it's a game changer.
03:53My prompt is simple. Close-up of an American policeman.
03:58And I have my Soul Lady selected here. Yeah. That one.
04:03The grain on it, the background falling out of focus. There's something tired in that face.
04:09That's the guy we're following. Now, here's the thing. When I start animating this character, I need him or I guess me to look the same from every angle.
04:18Same face, same uniform. So I'm taking this image into Nano Banana Pro to generate a character sheet. The face, the accessories, the clothing, everything has to be in the character sheet.
04:30The prompt I'm using is pretty long, so I'll leave the full thing in the description. Essentially, I'm locking in every detail of this character, so nothing drifts.
04:38Alright. Fantastic. Now, I need someone who actually shows up for this guy.
04:44Same prompt, but this time, I'm not selecting soul ID. This isn't me. It's a new person entirely.
04:50Let's see what we get. Okay. Look at this.
04:53For how simple the prompt was, the faces are production ready. The color graying, the skin texture, even the way the light is folding on them.
05:02This is the kind of result you normally have to work really hard for to get out of a model. Because I guarantee you, if I went to Nano Banana Pro with the same prong, I'd jump past it every time.
05:14That's just how it is over there. Seoul cinema does this by default. Anyway, this one.
05:21I don't know. He just looks like someone you'd want around. Like that one cop from literally any movie ever.
05:28I feel like he'd show up with a cake and pretend it's not a big deal. That's the friend. Let's name him Dave.
05:36And running the same character sheet on him too, same process. Okay. Location time.
05:41Scene one starts in a locker room. This is before the birthday, before the friends, before any of that. Just him.
05:49Soul cinema again. A wide shot of a locker room with blue lockers.
05:55I like that. There's something cold about those blue lockers. Institutional.
06:00You know what I mean? Nobody's around. Perfect.
06:03I'm also generating a prop sheet with the same prompt from earlier. I just wanna make sure the environment stays consistent across every shot on this scene. Okay.
06:11Now we animate. I'm going to cinema studio and doing a multi shot for scene one. This means I can string multiple shots together in one go.
06:21Different angles, different camera movements, all in the same scene.
06:25That's how you build something that actually feels like a film. First thing I'm doing is uploading my character sheet and my prop sheet as references. And here, you can name each element, give them a description, and choose a type.
06:39Alright. Shot one. I'm giving it seven seconds and selecting handheld camera move.
06:47That slight handheld shake really matters for the story. And for the prompt, policeman in uniform, reference my character, enters the locker room with blue lockers, reference the location.
07:03The policeman, reference again, stops in front of one of the lockers with his back to the camera.
07:09Something I've started doing, I describe the image, then drop the reference. It anchors the model to what you're actually trying to describe before it pulls from the reference. This way, you get noticeably better results.
07:22Okay. Shot two, five seconds, and static camera this time.
07:27View of view shot from the bottle inside the locker. Policeman opens the locker, reaches for the bottle, and then stops.
07:37I'm adding the bottle here as a little anchor to that depression narrative. That way the viewers can kind of tell what's coming next.
07:59And look. That's me in that shot. Even though I wasn't in the start frame, it's honestly impressive every time I see it.
08:06And here's a game changer tip that you have to start using today. In the second scene here, Clean three point o generated the shot from inside the locker. And honestly, it would be such a pain to generate it on my own.
08:17So I'm just gonna take a screenshot of that scene and then use a prop sheet when generating the next scene. So we start from within the locker, and then Kling can come up with the rest of the locker using the prop sheet.
08:30Shot one is static. We're still in that POV from the locker. POV shot inside the locker, in the locker room, and then we reference the location.
08:42Policeman reference me, opens the locker and reaches for a bottle. He stops as he touches it, and we hear Dave saying funny and loudly, happy birthday, my little princess.
08:56Shot two, switching to handheld now. We're out of the locker and back in the room. Profile close-up of policeman in uniform.
09:08Reference myself who shuts down the locker door quickly. As the door closes, camera captures the other policeman, Dave, who stands right in front of the closed locker door.
09:21Policeman Dave continues his phrase teasingly, you want a cupcake or a parade maybe?
09:29Shot three, also handheld, uh, wide shot of a policeman Dave and a policeman Adil who replies dryly, it's just a regular day, man.
09:41Nothing special.
09:47Happy birthday, my little princess. You want a cupcake or a parade maybe?
09:52It's just a regular day, man. Nothing special. We'll fix the voice a little later and it's gonna blow your mind.
09:58Alright. Bad line. That's the whole character in one sentence.
10:02You can't even let someone wish him happy birthday without shutting it down. I like everything here, so let's keep it. To continue, I wanna get back to the over the shoulder shot.
10:14So, I'm just gonna grab a screenshot from the second shot we got and use that same trick. Handheld again or staying in the conversation, keeping that loose energy.
10:26Dave, talking teasingly. Yeah.
10:30Don't sound too excited. You could call dispatch. Have them sing for you.
10:35Adil replies, please don't. I'm trying to keep a low profile today.
10:40Dave says in a fun way, too late. Princess turns a year older.
10:45That's paperwork. And Adil answers.
10:49Great. Added to the report. Subject survived another year.
10:53Yeah. Don't sound too excited. We can call dispatch, have them sing for you.
10:57Please don't. I'm trying to keep a low profile too late. Princess turns a year older.
11:01That's paperwork. Great.
11:03Add it to the report. Subject survived another year. And look.
11:07That whole exchange happened in one shot. No cuts. Just two guys in a locker room.
11:13One of them trying way too hard to pretend he's fine, and the other one not letting him get away with it. That's scene one done. Okay.
11:21Scene two, different energy entirely. We're out of the locker room. We're in the car now.
11:26I want the scene to feel completely different visually, less cinematic and more raw, like the dashcam just happened to be rolling.
11:35So this time, I'm trying a different workload. Instead of writing the prompt myself, I'm just gonna go and describe what I want to plot in plain words and let it build the actual prompt for me. Improve this prompt.
11:49Interior of a police car, dashboard, camera angle, looks like cheap surveillance footage.
11:58Bright sunlight, suburban neighborhood outside. That's it.
12:03Vegas hack. And Claude came back with this.
12:09Police cruiser interior, static wide shot from the dashboard. Well, you get the idea.
12:15I'll leave this full prompt in the description as well. But, yeah, that's the move. If you know the feeling you want, Claude can help you convey that to the model.
12:23Let's bring that over to Soul Cinema and hit generate.
12:29I have another workflow that I wanna try. I'm gonna bring this image into Cinema Studio. Bring it as a start frame, and add elements.
12:39My character sheet and Dave's character sheet. And I'm gonna do a simple prompt. Adil and Dave enter the car.
12:48That's it. Now we take that frame where both of them are sitting in the car and and Dale is about to close the door and screenshot it and use it as the start frame. Alright.
12:57First shot of scene two. Static camera move. And for the prompt, interior police cruiser, daytime, slight DVR, body cam, dashcam look, soft overexposed sunlight through the windshield, handheld vibration.
13:17The curly haired policeman on the left, reference myself, leans out the open door, pulls it shut, shifts into the seat, and starts the engine.
13:29The car comes to life. While this happens, the officer on the right, Dave, looks forward with a calm face and says in a deep sarcastic tone, you know where I celebrate my birthday every year?
13:44I want a short beat. And the curly policeman, Adele, eyes still on the road, answers very trialy.
13:54No. Why should Natural police radio ambiance, slight engine vibration, casual patrol energy.
14:08You know where I celebrate my birthday every year?
14:12No. Why should I? There we go.
14:14That's a detail most people would let slide, but don't. The whole point of that moment is that he's emotionally checked out.
14:23The second his eyes move, you kinda lose it. Before I continue this dialogue, I wanna generate a couple of b rolls. A couple shots just to let the scene breathe.
14:32Let's head over to Claude again. First one, uh, dashcam POV of a suburban street, dry flat neighborhood, midday sun.
14:44Second one, extreme close-up of a police radio mic clipped to a uniform, badge slightly out of focus, dark cinematic.
14:55And one more, a patrol car drives through a quiet suburban neighborhood. Seeing from the side window, dry grass, palm trees, midday heat.
15:08And now we bring those over to Seoul Cinema and generate them. Look at that. Three images, the easiest b roll of my life.
15:16Let's continue the dialogue. Seoul Cinema is fantastic with short and simple prompts that you can use for inspiration in case you don't have a specific image in mind. But it's also fantastic with really long and complex prompts.
15:32It listens and follows the prompt accurately to a t. Okay. Here, I'm using the same key frame from earlier, but the door is open.
15:42I don't wanna bother generating a new key frame, so I'm just gonna have him close the door at the beginning and then talk. We can cut that part out in the edit.
15:50I'm gonna try the dialogue in one take. We'll break it up with some b roll later. Dave says, little Kazakh spot on the fifth, plastic tables, soup so hot it files a complaint.
16:05Adil says, sounds nice. Dave says, best noodles you ever had.
16:10You know what they call them? Adil answers dryly, noodles?
16:16I know we already generated this, but we're gonna overlap them later. It'll make sense, I promise. Dave says, with a little side eye, nah, man.
16:25They got a name, fancy, Cultural. Adil answers dryly, like mine?
16:32And Dave says quickly,
16:35like what? Little Kazakh spot on 5th. Plastic tables.
16:39Soup so hot it files a complaint. Sounds nice. Best noodles you ever had.
16:43You know what they them? Noodles? Nah, man.
16:45They got a name. Fancy. Cultural.
16:47Lagman. Lag what? Casual conversations like this are a great way not only to loosen the the tension, but also give your characters some lore and develop them a little bit.
16:58And, you know, I had to bring in a bit of my culture. Like mine, you have to try it. Now, let's take the b roll from earlier, the radio.
17:07I want an interruption to pull them out of the birthday conversation and back into the job. Close-up of a police radio clipped to an officer's vest inside a moving patrol car.
17:21The radio crackles and the dispatch voice comes through. Unit twelve, we got a 17 in progress. Possible homicide.
17:31Seventeen thirty eight on scene. I have no clue what those numbers actually represent, but they sound cool.
17:40Unit twelve, we got a 17 in progress. Possible homicide, 1738
17:45on scene. There we go. One transmission and the whole tone shifts.
17:51While we're at it, let's animate the other two b rolls as well. I'm not gonna even bother prompting, just run it as is. Fantastic.
17:58We can mix these in in between the dialogue to make the scene more interesting. Actually, we could even have the speech itself overlap one of these shots.
18:09We'll see how it works best in the post edit. And to close the scene, I need the cops to actually respond to the call. Adele turns the wheel hard.
18:18They make a short turn, dynamic shot, sudden shake. Dave holds the radio, listens, and then says at the end, 1738, roger that.
18:291838.
18:361738,
18:38roger that. It's a short shot, but it does two things. First, it sets us up for the next scene with some dynamics.
18:45And second, it reminds us that these are actual cops on an actual shift. And that's a wrap for scene two. The inspiration here were multiple movies that I've watched about cops.
18:56And I wanna, for each scene, use different visual identities and different color grading, different cameras, and kind of piece little bits of those movies together in my own short film. Okay.
19:10And for the last scene, I feel like just two characters aren't enough to finish the full story. Let's get me a wife, at least in the short film.
19:19I want her to feel grounded, present. We're going back to soul cinema with no soul ID, just a close-up of a woman in her mid twenties.
19:31Alright. Yeah. She looks like she already knows something's wrong before I even say a word.
19:38That's exactly it. I'm gonna get her a character sheet as well and let's name her Selena. Now, the idea is that in the last scene, the wife and his friends are throwing him a birthday party, but he doesn't know it yet.
19:51So we have to connect scene two and scene three. Now, for this transition to work, we need to build up some suspense and tension. It needs to feel like there's an actual burglary happening in the building.
20:03So I'm gonna generate a multi shot where the first scene is them in the car, but then they exit and we get an outside view from the dashcam where they kind of circle around the car and enter the building. Now for the location itself, we need the house. So I'm gonna get some help from Claude again.
20:21I'll go with a simple prompt, a dark hallway, closed door at the end, bright light leaking through all the edges of the door frame.
20:33And it came back with this really long prompt. Let's bring it over to Seoul Cinema and generate. Okay.
20:40We got the location, and I want the shot to feel like a mission because for our character, that's what everything feels like. For shot one, a policeman with a police shotgun enters the door slowly, like he's on a mission.
20:59Lights inside the houses are off. Then shot two. And this is the moment the whole film has been building too.
21:08Light switches on quickly and the camera captures surprise party in the house.
21:14I'm gonna reference the house and close-up of the woman.
21:19We're gonna reference my wife with a cake with candles.
21:32Surprise, honey. And there's Selena, cake in hand, candles lit, very warm character.
21:40On the contrast, there's me, a guy who couldn't let his partner wish him happy birthday, who called himself subject survived another year, who's been running on empty this whole time.
21:51He doesn't get to deflect this one. And you can see that subtle smile at the end of him finally breaking the very touching moment.
22:06Okay. Now let's bring everything over to DaVinci and put it all together. Some shots get trimmed.
22:12Some get cut entirely. Not every generation made it. A few got mirrored because the composition just worked better flipped.
22:19This is the crucial part of the edit. And here's something I didn't expect. Halfway through the edit, I realized I was missing a couple shots for scene three.
22:28So I just went back and generated them using the exact same workflow. That's the beauty here. Imagine if I was actually filming this and only realized that I was missing something during post production.
22:38Getting the same lighting, same camera angles, heck, even some makeup on actors would be such a pain. Here, nothing is locked until you lock it. I'll leave all the prompts in the description so you can try them out yourself.
22:51Next, I'm splitting the audio into two separate tracks. One for me and one for Dave. Selena only has one line, so her voice stays as is.
23:00Now, let's bring it over to Hicksville audio and give it my voice. You can either upload a track of you speaking or record one right here. I've got a ton of videos of myself talking, so I'm gonna just grab one of those.
23:13Then I'm using change voice to process my entire audio track. One thing worth noting, it only changes the voice. The emotions, the pacing, the delivery, all of that stays exactly the same, which is exactly what we need here.
23:26For Dave, I'm just selecting one of the preset voices. There's one in there literally called Dave, so that was a no brainer. And that's it.
23:34Picture and sound done. Now, let's watch the full short film with the correct voices.
23:52Happy birthday, my little princess. Want a cupcake or a parade maybe? It's just a regular day, man.
23:59Nothing special. Yeah. Don't sound too excited.
24:02We can call dispatch, have them sing for you. Please don't. I'm trying to keep a low profile.
24:05Prince is turning to your older. That's paperwork.
24:08Great. Add it to the report. Subject survived another year.
24:14So what's the plan today? No alcohol. Right?
24:18My man.
24:23You know where I celebrate my birthday every year. No. Why should I?
24:29Little Central AZN spot on 5th, plastic tables, soup so hot it files a complaint. Sounds nice.
24:35Best noodles you ever had, you know what they call them? Noodles? Nah, man.
24:38They got a name. Fancy. Cultural.
24:41Lagman. Lag what? Unit twelve, we got a 17 in progress.
24:45Possibly homicide, 1738 on stage. 1738,
24:48roger that. Is that a cop car? Yeah.
24:53Might be.
25:14Surprise, honey.
