What skills are needed to create a compelling, authentic video?

To create a realistic and impressive AI video like 'Barron Trump and Princess Leonor's wedding', you don't necessarily need to be a tech expert, but you do need some basic to intermediate skills, depending on how much you want to invest.

Here are the skills needed, broken down by stage of the process:

Concept and script

Content creation skills: You need to know how to tell a compelling, logical, believable story (even if it's fiction).

At the same time, you must know how to simulate media styles as well as create storyboards (rough ones are fine) to determine the scenes.

Create images and videos with AI

You need to be familiar with the tools:

AI Image Generator (Midjourney, DALL·E, Leonardo AI...): to create wedding photos, palace scenes, costumes, characters.

AI Video Generator (RunwayML, Pika Labs, Synthesia, D-ID...): to turn photos into animated videos or animated avatars.

AI Face Swap/Deepfake (FaceFusion, HeyGen, Reface, Zao...): to attach a character's face to another actor.

3D/CGI (advanced): like Blender, Unreal Engine if you want extremely realistic and dynamic videos.

AI Speech Synthesis (Text-to-Speech & Voice Cloning)

Use tools like ElevenLabs, Play.ht, Descript, Voicemod to create natural, human-like voices.

Voice cloning if you want to use the real voice of Barron Trump or Leonor (many free or paid tools support).

Video Editing

Use software like CapCut, Final Cut Pro, Premiere Pro or FlexClip (for beginners).

Required skills: Smoothly cut and combine videos. Add effects, subtitles, background music. Simulate TV/cinema style (with intro, color filters...).

Communication/viral skills

Know how to create shocking titles and attractive thumbnails. Post on platforms like YouTube, TikTok, Facebook with "vague" descriptions that make viewers believe it's real. Understand social media trends to hit the right curiosity.

A virtual video could make the world believe a royal wedding took place.

Barron Trump and Princess Leonor's "wedding" video is not only a work of AI, but also a clear demonstration of the potential - and challenges - that this technology brings.

As the line between real and fake becomes increasingly blurred, understanding and controlling AI tools becomes more urgent than ever.
