Module 5 - Create your branded video ad

Module contents

What you will create

In this module, you will use Life OS to turn a short talking-head video into a polished 4:5 video ad.

By the end, you will have:

  1. A project folder for this video and its working files.
  2. A cleaned talking-head video with obvious retakes, long silences, and filler removed.
  3. Corrected captions for important names, terms, and phrases.
  4. A storyboard that breaks your video into clear beats.
  5. A preview you can watch and improve before rendering.
  6. A final 4:5 MP4 video ad checked and ready to use.

Core idea:

Start with one usable talking-head video. Let Life OS organise it, clean it, brand it, preview it, and check the final render.

This module is more advanced than the first two. You will be working with video, captions, creative tools, previews, and renders. Take it one step at a time. You do not need to understand the technical parts. Your job is to give clear instructions, approve the plan, review what you see, and ask your trainer for help when something feels unclear.

Before you start

You will need one talking-head video.

It should be:

You will also need your business brand book. You can refer to it in natural language, such as “my current business brand book from Areas/Business” or simply “my Transformation Coaching brand book”.

For this module, we will use a simple 4:5 Facebook ad format. This is the vertical-ish rectangle you often see in Facebook and Instagram feeds.

Before you start: install your video tools

These two tools only need to be installed once. After that, Life OS can use them whenever you want to make video content.

If a tool is already installed, Life OS should tell you and move on.

A note on installing tools: Life OS will usually guide the setup. Sometimes it may show you a command to copy and paste into your terminal. If you are not comfortable doing that yet, ask your trainer. You do not need to understand the command to complete the module safely.

If something goes wrong during install: Do not worry. Tool installs can fail for normal reasons: permissions, missing software, an old version, or a folder being in the wrong place. Ask Life OS to explain the problem in plain English and recommend the next safest step.

Install video-use

video-use helps clean up raw footage by removing silences, filler words, retakes, and false starts.

I want to install video-use from https://github.com/browser-use/video-use.

Before installing anything, tell me:
- What this tool does
- Where it will be installed
- Whether it looks safe and appropriate

Wait for my approval before proceeding.

Install HyperFrames

HyperFrames previews your storyboard in the browser and renders the final video.

I want to install HyperFrames from https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes.

Before installing anything, tell me:
- What this tool does
- Where it will be installed
- Whether it looks safe and appropriate

Wait for my approval before proceeding.

The big picture

The workflow is:

Create the video project folder
-> Clean the video
-> Create and correct captions
-> Build a storyboard
-> Preview the video
-> Give feedback
-> Render the final MP4
-> Check the render before calling it done

Step 1: Create the video project folder

Before editing, give this video project a proper home.

Use this prompt:

I have a talking-head video ready for this module.

Video file:
[Tell Life OS where the video is, or say I placed it in Inbox.]

Brand book:
[Say which brand book to use. For example: my Transformation Coaching brand book.]

Please create a project folder for this video project.

Before creating anything, tell me:
- The project folder name you recommend
- Where it should live in my Life OS
- Why it belongs there
- Which files should go inside it
- Whether you recommend moving or copying the video file

Wait for my approval before creating folders or moving files.

From this point on, ask Life OS to save all files for this video inside the project folder: cleaned video, captions, storyboard, preview files, renders, and handoff notes.

Step 1 complete. Your video project has a home.

Step 2: Clean the talking-head video

Now ask Life OS to clean the video.

The goal is not to make it perfect. The goal is to remove the obvious friction so the video is easier to watch and easier to turn into a polished ad.

Use this prompt:

Clean up this talking-head video using video-use:

Video file:
[Use the video in this project folder.]

Please remove:
- Long silences
- Obvious retakes or false starts
- Filler words where they can be removed naturally
- Dead air at the start or end

Keep the pacing natural. Do not cut so tightly that I sound robotic.

Before editing, tell me:
- What you recommend removing
- What you recommend keeping
- Where the cleaned file will be saved
- How I can review it before we move on

Wait for my approval before editing.

After Life OS creates the cleaned video, watch it.

Check:

If something feels wrong, say so in plain English:

This cut feels too tight. Make the pacing more natural.
The cut around [describe the moment] feels awkward. Please inspect that section and suggest a fix.
This version is good enough. Use this cleaned video for the next step.

Step 2 complete. You now have clean footage for your video project.

Step 3: Create captions and fix key words

Captions matter.

They are often the first thing people read, especially on social media. They also make caption errors very obvious.

Before building the full video, ask Life OS to create or inspect the captions from your cleaned video.

Use this prompt:

Create captions or a transcript from my cleaned talking-head video.

Cleaned video:
[Use the cleaned video from this project.]

Before using the captions in a video, show me any words you are uncertain about.

Pay special attention to:
- My name
- My business name
- Program names
- Client names
- Brand terms
- Acronyms
- Credentials
- Words that sound similar but mean different things

Do not build the video yet. First, show me the caption text and any uncertain words so I can correct them.

Create a short caption glossary if needed.

A caption glossary is just a list of words Life OS must spell correctly.

Examples:

Please use these exact caption spellings:

- Neurowisdom®
- Neurowisdom Transformation Blueprint®
- SoulCopy AI
- NLP Master Training
- Archetypal Coaching®
- Matrix Therapies®
- 9-to-5
- behind the wheel

If you spot a caption mistake, correct it directly:

Caption correction: change "behind a wheel" to "behind the wheel" everywhere it appears.

Update the caption source files before we build or render the video.

Step 3 complete. Your captions are ready enough to use in the storyboard and preview.

Step 4: Build the storyboard

A storyboard is the plan for your video.

It breaks the video into short sections called beats. Each beat explains what is happening, what should appear on screen, and why it matters.

Use this prompt:

Create a Facebook 4:5 video ad storyboard from this cleaned talking-head video.

Cleaned video:
[Use the cleaned video from this project.]

Captions or transcript:
[Use the captions or transcript Life OS created for this project.]

Brand book:
[Use my Transformation Coaching brand book.]

Build 5-7 beats. For each beat, include:
- Timestamp range
- What is being said or shown
- Suggested caption or on-screen text
- Suggested animation or motion style
- Purpose of the beat

Important rules:
- Keep my face visible.
- Use face-safe space for cards, captions, and CTAs.
- Captions must follow the spoken words.
- On-screen summary text can simplify the message, but captions should match the audio.
- Keep animations simple and production-ready: fade in, slide up, text reveal, subtle zoom, highlight callout.

Before saving anything, tell me:
- The storyboard you recommend
- Where you recommend saving it
- Why it belongs there

Wait for my approval before creating or editing files.

You do not need to accept the first storyboard.

Simple ways to steer it:

Make the opening beat more energetic.
Make the CTA clearer and warmer.
Use fewer animations. Keep it calmer and more premium.
Add a visual proof moment when I mention client results.

Step 4 complete. You now have a clear plan for what the final video should show.

Step 5: Preview, give feedback, and iterate

Now ask Life OS to create a preview.

A preview lets you watch the storyboard in motion before rendering the final MP4.

Use this prompt:

Create a HyperFrames preview of this Facebook 4:5 video ad storyboard.

Storyboard:
[Use the storyboard from this project.]

Cleaned video:
[Use the cleaned video from this project.]

Brand book:
[Use my Transformation Coaching brand book.]

Captions:
[Use the captions from this project if available.]

Before starting, tell me:
- Which files you will create or modify
- The preview URL you will serve on
- How I should review the preview

Wait for my approval before creating or editing files.

Open the preview and watch it through.

You are not checking whether it is technically impressive. You are checking whether it communicates clearly.

Look for:

Give feedback in plain English.

Examples:

The CTA is blocking my face. Move it lower and make the main text slightly smaller.
This caption is wrong. It should say "behind the wheel", not "behind a wheel".
Hold the final CTA for one extra second after the talking finishes.
Around the moment where I say "trained hundreds of coaches", add a few online and in-person training photos around me without covering my face.
This scene feels too busy. Remove one visual element and keep the captions clear.

After each change, ask Life OS to check before saying it is done:

Make that change, then check the preview or rendered frames before telling me it is done.

Step 5 complete. You have reviewed the preview and shaped it with feedback.

Step 6: Render and check the final MP4

When the preview looks right, render the final video.

Use this prompt:

Render this Facebook 4:5 video ad to MP4.

Composition file:
[Use the HyperFrames composition Life OS created for the preview.]

Use 1080x1350 4:5 format for Meta ads.
Use high quality if available.

Before rendering, tell me:
- The output filename you recommend
- Where the rendered file will be saved
- Why it belongs there
- How you will check the final MP4 after rendering

Wait for my approval before rendering.

Rendering is not the final step.

Checking the render is the final step.

Use this prompt after the render finishes:

Check the rendered MP4 before calling it done.

Please inspect the final video and confirm:
- The video plays through
- Captions advance correctly and do not get stuck
- Key caption spellings are correct
- My face is not blocked at important moments
- The CTA appears correctly
- The final frame or ending behaves as expected
- The video is the right 4:5 shape for Meta ads

Extract or show frames from several points in the video if needed.
Tell me what you checked and whether anything needs fixing.

If the render has a problem, fix it before using the file.

Examples:

The captions are stuck on the first caption block. Find the cause, fix it, render again, and verify captions at several timestamps.
The final CTA is too high and blocks my face. Move it lower, render again, and check the final section.
Remove older renders and keep only the latest verified MP4.

Step 6 complete. You now have a polished 4:5 MP4 video ad that has been rendered and checked.

If you stop partway

Video projects often take more than one session.

That is normal. In fact, it is better to stop partway than to keep pushing one long AI conversation until it gets tired, crowded, or confused.

As a rough rule, try not to let one working session grow past about 150k tokens.

You do not need to understand exactly what a token is. Think of tokens as the AI’s working memory load. Every message, file, transcript, decision, and correction adds to that load. Once the session gets too large, Life OS can still be useful, but it becomes easier for it to:

That is why Life OS uses handoffs.

A handoff is a short baton note for the next session. It captures what has been done, what files matter, what decisions have been made, what still needs checking, and the next action.

Use this when you are stopping for the day, switching tasks, or the conversation is getting long:

/handoff

When you come back, start the next session with:

Read the latest handoff in Inbox and continue from the next useful step.

Stopping well is part of the workflow. It keeps Life OS accurate, calm, and useful.

Optional: Turn this workflow into a Skill

Only do this once you have walked through the workflow at least once.

A Skill is a repeatable set of instructions Life OS can follow. Instead of guiding Life OS through every step from scratch next time, the Skill remembers the process and asks for approval at the right moments.

Use this prompt:

Turn this video editing workflow into a reusable Skill in my Life OS.

The workflow is:
1. Create a project folder for the video
2. Clean the video with video-use
3. Create captions and correct key words
4. Build a Facebook 4:5 storyboard using my brand book
5. Preview with HyperFrames
6. Iterate based on my feedback
7. Render to MP4
8. Check the final render before calling it done
9. Create a handoff if we stop partway

At each step, ask for my approval before proceeding to the next step.

Before creating anything, tell me:
- The Skill name you recommend
- The appropriate Life OS home
- The folder and file names you recommend
- What the Skill is for
- When to use it
- What inputs it needs
- What it should produce
- The steps Life OS should follow

Keep it plain English.
Wait for my approval before creating or editing files.

Next time you have a new talking-head video, you can say:

Use my video editing Skill on this new video in Inbox.

Walk me through each step and ask for approval before editing, creating files, rendering, or deleting old outputs.
