Astra Built Me an Entire Product Launch (UGC, Ads, and Website)

0:00So, I've always had this dream to build a dumb phone where the entire interface is just a single chat thread. The phone's only feature is that it is an AI agent that you can text to do anything for you. And I'm actually going to build it in 2027. But before I build the phone, I want to know if I can market it. So, today I'm going to use GPT-6 Astra, Blender, and Higgs Field to turn one image into a cinematic commercial

0:24for a product that doesn't exist yet. And by the end of this video, I will hopefully have a high-quality video that I'll be able to use as marketing. Okay, so yesterday I used Higgs Field to generate an image of a phone. And I wanted to turn it into a 3D model, and I gave it to Codex to create this 3D asset in Blender. And then 5 minutes later, I had this 3D model of a phone that I want to make. Okay, so look at this. We now have the Dumb Agent Phone right here. We have a 3D model. And the reason I'm doing this is because Astra is really

0:58good at using 3D models, and it can pass in images of the 3D model and videos of this 3D model into our AI video generator. And to generate videos, we are going to be using the Higgs Field plugin. In order to use Higgs Field, all you need to do is go up to plugins, and then we're just going to type Higgs Field, and we're going to hit this plus button,

1:24which will automatically install it. Here, we'll be prompted to sign in. So, we're going to hit allow, and we're going to open ChatGPT. And now we are signed into Higgs Field, and here you should see Higgs Field plugin installed. And so, all we have to do is just tag it. And I'm going to go ahead and say, "Hey, please use this plugin, which is the Higgs Field plugin, to make a 30-second high-quality ad for this phone. Use Blender to get images and

1:57videos to pass into the video generator. Please think deeply about this and make it great. Watch the videos and make any improvements. Go. All right, so let's see how it does here. Okay, so it said, "I'll build the ad around the phone's physical keyboard, silver finish, and messaging screen, and I'll render the source shots in Blender, use Higgsfield to animate them, and review and refine the footage into a 30-second cut." We can see that it's actually recommending models because Higgsfield has access to basically all of the video models, and you can watch it think in real time. And you can see here it's passing in these photos that

2:41it's taking inside Blender. It's using Blender in the background to get photos, and that's what's being sent into the video generator, which is a really cool workflow. And this is pretty cool. You can actually see that it's generating. It's generating something that's 30 seconds. Higgsfield's using Seed Dance 2.5, and all of this is happening in line. And I can actually see these image references that are showing up right here, and I can see that it's using this in the sources. And so it's using Higgsfield right now. And remember, these models, these really high-quality video models do take a little bit of time. So, we just got to be patient and

3:19wait a few minutes. All right, so it is now done, and you can see that it's showing all of these different frames here. If we open up this side panel, you can see that it created this 30-second video here. Let's go ahead and give this a watch. So, I can I'm going to go ahead and just full screen this, close the side view. Let's go ahead and give this

3:41a watch. Ooh.

3:53That's a good shot right there. Oh, nice. Let's go. Look at that. That's solid. And it's so consistent in every frame.

4:10Okay, so I think I would want to change this last part. So, I really like everything. I do want to change the last section, though, that looks like this. And so, I'm just going to take a screenshot here. And we're just going to drag this image in right here. And I want this to actually be longer. And I want you to get a frame where the things on the screen are a bit different. Like the UI of the phone should be different for different shots. Keep the beginning of

4:49the video the same, and let's extend it. Let's make this a total of 1 minute. So, we'll fire off this prompt. Same music stays the same. Use Higgsfield. Okay, so I think it is done. I updated with the poolside shot, outdoor glare, clean clock screen. Let's go ahead and take a look at see how this does here.

5:20Love that shot.

5:37Ooh, there it is. I like this one. It's a good shot. [music]

5:53[music]

6:04I like it. Very cool. Pretty solid agent phone. I guess I need to come up with a name. Okay, so I had Codex explain how this worked in a flowchart. And you can just ask it. You can say, "Can you tell me how the flowchart works like with Higgs Field Codex and Blender and make an inline flowchart explaining it." That's all you need to do. Say that I want an inline flowchart explaining this. And here it says, "I gave the direction of the

6:30iPhone reference shot ideas and music. Codex plans the ad scenes and timing prompts. Blender builds the product 3D phone." So, on Blender, we actually had this right here. And this was used to grab images of the phone from all directions to keep it consistent. And then Higgs Field creates scene images, pool, cafe, outdoor, and background. And here we see that Higgs Field generates the video camera moves, reflections, and people. Codex reviews the footage, checks the phone shape, screen, hands, etc. And if it needs fixing, it goes

7:03back to the original Higgs Field step. And then Codex assembles the edit uh using FFmpeg in the Higgs Field sandbox. And then it does some final checks. And that's what we see right here. And so that's when we see the final video. And you know what? This is pretty dang cool. I'm going to say, "Hey, I want a landing page for this. Can you create a landing page which puts the video in the landing page so I can run it like that." And now it should create a landing page that I can see. All right. So this is is pretty cool. We now have landing page that is on the

7:44internet and it has the video. And it even included some of the images that were generated in Codex by Higgs Field and you can see them down below and we can very easily make changes all of this directly inside Codex, which is amazing. Now, I wonder, hey, can you generate two uh videos? I

8:09want two videos that can be used as UGC. So, I want UGC videos that advertise it to different people, one guy, one uh one girl in the other video um that's using the minimal phone and the things that they should be talking about are how like they should be short, 20 to 30 seconds each about how like,

8:27"Oh my god, I just got this new phone. All it is is I can talk to an AI agent and it can do anything for me like my emails, my texts, it can do my homework and then come up with a few more ideas or something and make some UGC videos." And I can just say use that Higgs Field. We're using the plugin once again and

8:44now we'll wait for Astra to be done. This will take another 5 to 10 minutes. Okay, so it looks like it's done here and you can see these are the links to the Higgs Field output. So, I can right-click on this and do open in browser. Let's check this one out here. Oh my god, I just got this new phone. It's called Agent and I literally just talked to an AI agent. It can draft my emails, write my texts, and help me with with homework. Like explain the problem,

9:15don't just give me the answer. That's pretty good. Here, let's open this one in the browser as well. Okay, I just got this tiny phone and I need to show you. It's called Agent. I tell the AI what I need. Draft that email, help me reply to a text, break down my homework. Then plan my week, make a grocery list, find somewhere for dinner all in one conversation. Plus, this little keyboard, honestly,

9:43I love it. That's pretty good. This looks super realistic. I would not have guessed that this was AI. I mean, maybe if I really squint at it, but this is like a really good two really good UGC videos. I think we could definitely run these as ads, which is crazy. All right, guys. So, I spent another 30 minutes to an hour refining all of these different deliverables like these UGC videos and the launch video. This one was created

10:11with Seed Dance 2.5. This is my new phone, real keyboard, and there's an assistant built into it like in the phone, not an app. You just tell it what you need and it handles it. Calendar, messages, book I mean, look at how realistic he looks in the phone like the way he's holding it. Very realistic.

10:31kings, all of it. This is what it looks like. Honestly, easiest thing I own. All right, I like it. And then, this is another one that kind of I wanted to go for like a casual vibe in the car, and it's actually a moving car. So, that makes it even harder, and check this one

10:50out. So, this is the phone I've been going on about. Keyboard, yeah? But, the thing is the assistant. It's in the phone itself. I don't open anything anymore. I just tell it and it's done. Calendar, texts, all of that. bump? That's crazy. Haven't thought about my phone once this week. That is a really good UGC ad. And then, the original video that I made that was a minute long was more like a commercial, and I iterated on it and created a new version which looks more

11:16like a launch video. Check this one out. [music]

11:35[music] Pretty cool. This one was created on Seed Dancers 2.5. And then here's the final version of the website design. Look at this. This was only like a three additional prompts. It created this animation here. The phone pops out. Keep scrolling. Here it is. Look at this. And as I scroll, the video plays.

12:02Which I thought was a really nice touch. And we have this really nice website. Okay, so let's think about what we did today, right? We used Codex, my AI agent platform of choice. We then used Blender to create a 3D model of my idea for a dumb phone. And then we basically allowed Codex to pass images of this 3D model in different formats to Higgs Field, where Higgs Field was able to use agentic video generation through its plugin directly inside Codex. It used the best models, mostly Seed Dancers 2.5, and we generated a commercial. We generated two UGC videos. We created a launch video. And then we created a

12:41website that kind of incorporated all of the different assets that we generated. And this only took a few hours. And by the way, there's a link in my description, and you can get up to 50% off of Higgs Field when you sign up. Make sure to check the link in the description down below for more info about that. Thank you guys so much for watching. I'll see you here in the next

13:01video.
