One-stop tutorial for AI short video creation, operation and monetization | 35 viral playstyles + CapCut editing + mobile shooting, Douyin follower growth + three side hustles implemented

Course Introduction

This one-stop tutorial for AI short video creation, operation and monetization is an all-around systematic course for zero-foundation beginners, covering six major sections: hands-on AI tools, viral video production, CapCut editing, mobile live shooting, Douyin account operation, and side hustle monetization. After learning, you will achieve a complete loop from content production to commercial monetization.

The course first introduces you to mainstream AI tools such as DeepSeek, Doubao, and Jimeng, and explains core skills such as the eight rules of prompting, using the R1 model, web search, image-to-image, and prompt reverse engineering. It focuses on 35 currently popular AI viral playstyles: cute pet dancing, ancient poetry recitation, rural healing, dynamic restoration of old photos, Shanhaijing, microscopic little people, digital humans, costume changes, five-tone healing, picture book stories, etc., solving high-frequency difficulties such as character consistency and image generation.

It comes with complete systematic CapCut teaching, so you can master editing skills such as subtitles, voiceover, masks, keyframes, color grading, and special effects; it also explains mobile shooting techniques such as camera movement, composition, focus/exposure lock, and time-lapse photography, covering both AI-generated content and live-shot content production.

The operation section breaks down the Douyin recommendation algorithm, account tagging, viral topic selection, benchmarking account analysis, homepage packaging, DOU+ placement, and trend-jacking account launch, helping you avoid platform throttling pitfalls.

The monetization module focuses on breaking down three implementable side hustles: old photo restoration order taking, AI ancient poetry account creation revenue sharing, and Jimeng Pick promotion. Each is fully broken down from technical production, short video traffic driving, livestream customer acquisition, order-taking scripts, revenue-sharing application, and apprentice recruitment playstyles, achieving technology + operation + closing in one step.

The course features hands-on demonstrations throughout, is beginner-friendly, requires no complicated equipment, and can be implemented with just a phone + computer.

⚠️Note: The course teaches skills and project methods; traffic and order-taking income vary from person to person, and stable orders are not guaranteed.
