Class Prompts

You can copy and paste these prompts directly into ChatGPT or fal.ai to replicate the lesson.

1. Character & Location Generation (ChatGPT)

Create the initial character concept:


create a character image of Bubba, the host of Bubba's kitchen. overweight Italian guy, a bit rough around the edges, but makes a damn good meal every time

Refine the style to be more animated:


make him pixar style

(If it still looks too realistic, follow up with: “he still looks too real, make him a bit more pixar”)

Generate the character sheet (Crucial for consistent generation):


give me a character sheet, 16:9, front back left right full body, same angles for face close ups. no text

Generate the consistent kitchen background:


now give me an image of his kitchen, 16:9

(If the background is too cluttered, follow up with: “right now it’s way to busy. fix”)

2. Video Generation (Minimax H3 Reference-to-Video)

Note: Ensure you have uploaded your character sheet and/or kitchen image to the “Reference Image URLs” section in fal.ai before running these.

Basic cooking actions:


Bubba prepares a steak in his kitchen


Bubba prepares a chicken in his kitchen


Bubba prepares a fish in his kitchen

Adding dialogue (Letting the model generate the voice):


Bubba is preparing a fish in his kitchen. He laughs and says "let's cook a fish"


Bubba is preparing a burrito in his kitchen. He laughs and says "let's cook a burrito"

Forcing a specific camera angle/shot type:


single continuous shot. Bubba introduces himself, saying "Hi, I'm Bubba, and I'm gonna cook a great meal for you." he is standing against a plain white background

3. Scripting & Audio Management (ChatGPT)

Extracting audio from a generated video (Upload your video file first):


separate out the mp3 for the audio

Generating a step-by-step cooking script:


give me a step by step simple video prompt for cooking a steak. end with the finished product. include only 5 steps

Generating an alternative sweet recipe:


do another, something sweet this time
