The Toolbox
Choosing your instruments
There are hundreds of platforms. Six tools are enough. I show you the ones that run the Archives, what each one can really do, and the exact moment you take it out of the box.
The sequence

How to choose your AI video tools
Criteria before names. Here they are, as the module applies them to each tool before it joins the pipeline.
Consistency
A tool that changes a character's face from one shot to the next cannot carry a story. Always test the same scene several times before judging.
Cost per usable shot
The listed price matters less than what a shot you actually keep costs: credits, failed attempts, required resolution.
Usage rights
What the terms of use really allow: commercial use, monetization, ownership of generated images. Read them before you publish.
Final output
Resolution, shot length, quality of motion: what holds up on a phone screen as well as full screen.
Its place in the pipeline
A tool is only worth what it receives from the step before and what it passes on to the step after.
The tools covered
The names are revealed in the module, from the Young Trainer tier.
Commercial communication — four of the links in this module are affiliate links. If you use them, I earn a commission and you pay exactly the same price. I only list tools that run on my own videos.
