Main Ideas and Concepts

Popularity of Senior Life Story Videos

Videos featuring seniors’ life stories (often still images with AI voice narration) attract millions of views and generate high ad revenue.
These videos tend to be long and have high ad rates, making them lucrative once they gain traction.

Target Audience and Content Differentiation

Senior life stories are broadly divided by gender: men’s stories and women’s stories.
Differences are reflected in thumbnails and title styles:
- Men’s stories:
  - Thumbnails with two-line titles at the bottom
  - Themes like soldiers, school, cider
- Women’s stories:
  - Thumbnails with a large face on the right and large title on the left
  - Themes like mother-in-law/daughter-in-law conflicts, family issues
Some thumbnails mix male and female elements depending on title layout.

Benchmarking Strategies

Use Chrome’s Incognito (Secret) Mode to search for senior life story videos to avoid personalized recommendations and find unbiased benchmarking videos.
Alternatively, create a new Google/Chrome profile to subscribe and watch similar channels for benchmarking.
Many Korean channels copy popular videos, making it hard to surpass original view counts.
Benchmarking overseas channels can provide fresh ideas since Korean channels rarely do this.
Use Perblack City (a factual website search engine) to find overseas senior life story channels by inputting Korean channel URLs.

Script Extraction and Re-creation

Use the Chrome extension YouTube Summary with ChatGPT to extract video scripts.
Summarize the extracted script into concise Korean summaries.
Use AI (ChatGPT and Claude) to recreate and expand the script:
- Summarize first, then create a re-creation plan and write main text (~500 characters).
- Divide the story into 5 chapters to avoid AI truncation.
- Use Claude for literary, natural storytelling with balanced narration and dialogue.
- Compare outputs from ChatGPT and Claude to choose the best style.

Video Editing Using Brew

Brew is recommended for editing life story videos because it is easy and fast.
Steps in Brew:
- Create a new video from text.
- Paste the script (without chapter titles).
- Select AI voice only, choosing a middle-aged female voice (e.g., Song Se-ah).
- Adjust volume (recommended 3 or higher for seniors).
- Sync audio and subtitles; correct mismatches if any.

Image Creation for Video

Generate images for each chapter using Google’s ImageFX tool by inputting prompts derived from the script.
Download images and insert them into Brew, matching images with corresponding clips.
Use clip numbers and text search (Ctrl+F) to align images with script parts.
Adjust image range (clip numbers) for proper display duration.

Subtitle Styling

Customize subtitles by changing font, adding borders, adjusting thickness.
Add colored backgrounds behind subtitles with adjustable opacity and color.
Adjust subtitle position to avoid sticking to the bottom edge.

Voice Editing for Dialogue

Edit voice clips individually to add emotional styles (e.g., happy, sad).
Choose voices and emotions that fit the characters and dialogue lines for natural delivery.

Exporting the Video

After editing, export the final video from Brew.

Thumbnail Creation

Use Claude to generate a prompt for a thumbnail image (e.g., frontal close-up of grandmother).
Create the image with ImageFX.
Use Canva (referred to as Canvas) to design the thumbnail:
- Set canvas size to 1280x720.
- Upload the generated image and resize.
- Add a multi-line title inspired by benchmarking titles.
- Use large, colorful fonts (white, yellow, red, blue) for readability and visual appeal.
- Add a black background shape behind the text for contrast.
- Adjust font style and size; add outlines to text for emphasis.
