A few months ago, I thought you needed an expensive laptop and advanced editing skills to create AI videos.
Turns out, you don’t.
If you have a smartphone and an internet connection, you can create surprisingly good AI videos in minutes.
Here’s the simple workflow I use.
Step 1: Write Your Script
If you’re struggling with what to say, use ChatGPT to generate a script.
Keep your script short, around 30 to 60 seconds if you’re creating content for social media.
Step 2: Generate the Video
These AI tools can turn your text into videos.

Simply enter your prompt, choose your style, and let the AI generate the video.
Step 3: Add a Voiceover
Don’t want to use your own voice?
Try these AI voice generators.

They offer natural-sounding voices in different accents.
Step 4: Edit Everything Together
Use a mobile editor to combine your clips, voiceover, subtitles, and music.
-CapCut
-VN Editor
Both work well on Android and iPhone.
Step 5: Add Captions
Captions keep people watching longer.
CapCut can generate them automatically, or you can use:

A Few Things to Note
✅ AI videos still need good ideas. The tool won’t fix a boring script.
✅ Short videos (30 to 60 seconds) usually perform better on TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts.
✅ Spend time writing a detailed prompt. The better your prompt, the better your AI video.
You don’t need expensive equipment to get started anymore. Your phone is enough.
