Creating Content with Chat GPT

1. Prompt Design:

   • Create a table of 100 interesting psychology facts, divided into parts.
   • Topics include personality disorders, narcissism, brain function, etc.
   • Each part should engage and reveal interesting facts.

2. Data Collection:

   • Use Google Sheets to track and organize data.
   • Copy the Chat GPT output to Sheets for easy management.

Video Creation Using Canva

1. Template Setup:

   • Use 'Mobile Video' in Canva for portrait-sized videos.
   • Adjust video length to 10 seconds.
   • Add dynamic background videos by setting and adjusting landscape videos as background.

2. Text Overlay:

   • Add headings for 'Topic', 'Part One', and 'Part Two'.
   • Customize text fonts, colors, and effects.
   • Adjust timing for sequential text appearance: part one followed by part two.

3. Bulk Create Feature:

   • Import data from Google Sheets into Canva's Bulk Create tool.
   • Connect data to text elements and generate videos.
