Rule №1 of a catchy jingle: add claps, whistles, a children's choir and a rhythmic melody.
Rule №2: break rule №1.
(NOT) FOR YOU is my entry for @ElevenLabs’ 'The Search for the World's Catchiest Ad'. Let me know if it sticks.
The music, sound effects, voice-over and character voice were all generated on ElevenCreative. Who needs an invitation when you have a little imagination and a lot of fantasy?
That's how I got to the CapCut World LA event at the Audrey Irmas Pavilion. The trip was... intense! 🦄
This is my entry for the new Contra × CapCut challenge.
My workflow:
① I created the character sheet and the prop sheet for the mushroom, as well as the location sheets for a nature landscape and the Audrey Irmas Pavilion.
② I created still shots using my internal AI image generation tool.
③ I created trippy 2D/3D animated images to use as the opening frames of the videos.
④ I imported all the images into the CapCut Video Studio and used the CapCut AI to animate them.
⑤ I created the music in ElevenLabs/ElevenMusic.
⑥ I edited the videos using DaVinci Resolve.
WARNING: This video contains strong strobe effects. ⚡
I recently watched The Moment, the Charli xcx mockumentary. I really liked the strobing typography layered over the footage, so I tried recreating it for the Contra × @Invideo challenge.
Everything was done directly in the new invideo Editor timeline. Although, to be fair, Agent Two did most of the work. I supplied the assets and creative brief, then watched it go.
And it did a freaking good job. Not perfect on the first try, but the fixes only needed a conversation in chat.

What does a good booking flow look like for both sides?
For the Contra × Lovable challenge, I became DJ Luvable, a wedding and art-venue DJ from a parallel universe, and built his site with Lovable to find out.
