This is Hopeless Steve.
A cartoon character you've created with AI.
You grew up watching Simpsons, South Park and now you dream of Hopeless Steve becoming the next big IP.
So you start posting short sketches on Youtube, TikTok, IG, etc.
Then one day... 👇 https://t.co/jtecaEywaM
One of your short videos blows up - 150k views on Youtube Shorts and tons of comments.
You take it as a strong signal in your proof-of-concept test.
So you go all in and drop a 6-minute Season 1 Episode 1 on the Hopeless Steve series on Youtube. https://t.co/00jONqCxa5
In the meantime, you keep posting short sketches across all platforms.
But now, the goal isn't to validate idea - it's to drive traffic from your short videos to the full episode, and get more people to fall in love with Hopeless Steve character. https://t.co/2uL6IwuL85
You create it alone, all with AI, because you understand a simple truth:
Masses don't care whether its AI or not.
All they want is a dopamine hit. They want to FEEL something.
So you double down on story and characters. https://t.co/o5GwQKaZ11
After Season 1 you've got a solid fanbase.
Time to monetize:
You launch Steve's merch
Start earning Youtube ad revenue
By season 3 you license it to streaming platforms.
Then you assemble a team and launch a bunch of new IP's using the same model.
This is a fascinating business model you can build in the upcoming AI era.
Even the smartest minds on Youtube, like @Richard_YTS are saying it: this AI animation use case is the wave everyone will be riding soon.
It's no doubt the next big IP's will come from small (or even solo) AI animation studios.
My upcoming AI animation course is the perfect kickstart to learn these skills and start testing your wildest ideas.
(inside the course you'll create 3 cartoons from start to finish, one of them - just like Hopeless Steve)
