The Era of “I Want It Now” — and the Art of Switching

If you’re on an AI journey and love creating content, you might enjoy this read.

I want to share my recent experience: figuring out how to create 30 videos to grow my audience on YouTube and LinkedIn.

At first, I thought I had two options:

1. Record myself.

2. Use AI to generate everything.

👉 Spoiler: there was a third way. After 5 days of experiments, tests, questions, and a few surprises, I discovered a process that could work for you too.

But as we all know — Rome wasn’t built in a day.

Whether beginner or expert, every time we start something new, we’re a bit of a “beginner” again.

Day 1: Starting with Canva

I tried Canva for recording and editing videos — generating images and video from text.

But I quickly got lost:

• The editing workflow wasn’t smooth.

• You can’t easily see all your assets in one place.

Still, I liked the screen-recording slide-by-slide style, with or without my face. It allows framing flexibility later. After 1 hour, I thought Canva could be my main tool — until I heard my French accent on playback.

Back to Basics: Writing a Script

That afternoon, I went back to what matters: clarity of message.

I wrote a script explaining how Upmeet helps lawyers track meetings, extract data, and proactively support clients with contracts.

To refine, I asked ChatGPT:

• Listed Upmeet’s main features.

• Asked it to generate scripts.

But since I didn’t want to use my face or voice, I researched tools for generating two-voice conversations.

Wondercraft, Fliki & Imagine Art

I remembered I had a subscription to Wondercraft. Perfect for voice generation (though no video yet). I pasted in my script, picked voices, and got a decent first version.

But I still needed a video.

So I combined:

• Fliki → fast demo-style videos.

• Imagine Art → visuals matching my branding and style.

Together, they worked.

Refining the Process

With Fliki, I spent ~4 hours refining my video:

• Choosing/replacing elements.

• Matching Rose’s AI voice with the right images and text.

But… the video was 3:45 minutes long. Too much.

Challenge accepted → I asked ChatGPT to split my script into 3 one-minute videos.

Perfect! I went back to Fliki, rebuilt with shorter scripts, reused my template, adjusted visuals with Imagine Art, and ended up with a series.

What Worked (and What Didn’t)

• Canva: good for slide-style recording, but not for my workflow.

• Fliki: excellent for fast demo videos.

• Wondercraft: strong AI voices.

• Imagine Art: useful for custom branding visuals.

In the end, my process looked like this:

1. Define your topic, target audience, pain point, solution, hook & CTA.

2. Use ChatGPT to generate 3 versions of a 1-minute script.

3. Use Wondercraft for audio (dialogue-style voices).

4. Import into Fliki, sync visuals & audio.

5. Add custom visuals from Imagine Art if needed.

6. Refine, shorten, and publish.

Lessons Learned

• The “magic one-button” tool doesn’t exist (sorry, no Mary Poppins here).

• Combine tools, split tasks, and focus on intention.

• Start with clarity: what do you want to share, and with whom?

My Takeaway

In the era of “I want it now,” speed matters — but what really wins is practice + intention.

AI is amazing at recognizing patterns, generating drafts, and speeding up production. But it has no lived experience. That’s your edge.

Clients and audiences don’t just want content. They want human intention, creativity, empathy, and clarity. That’s how we build trust, stand out, and grow.

✅ So, don’t get stuck hunting for the “perfect tool.”
Switch, combine, and test until you find your flow.

This was my 5-day journey. Hopefully, it saves you from endless research — and helps you create content that connects.
