🔮AI Tool Stack: Midjourney, CapCut, Online Convert.com
I love combining tools to create interesting and engaging content, like the video below.
I often use free tools to stay on a budget, and I encourage you to do the same.
I wanted to highlight a new style with stunning images from Midjourney.
I used:
Midjourney: Image generation
CapCut: Video editing and music
Online Convert.com: Convert video file from .mov to .mp4
I pay for a Midjourney monthly pro plan, and I use the free versions of CapCut and Online Convert.com.
This video shows the results of my using Midjourney’s new Zoom Out feature to outpaint or add more details to the image by ‘zooming out’ and filling the space around the image:

You can use other video editors, including Runway ML, Adobe Express, Wondershare, and Canva to create the title page, transitions, text, and add music to this type of video.
I created this video on my cellphone by placing the images on the video timeline as they got smaller and more ‘zoomed’ out. I airdropped the video to my laptop, and I had to convert the .mov file from my iPhone into a .mp4 file to upload the video on Substack’s text editor.
I use all of the video editors listed above, but I chose CapCut for this project because I was traveling and it’s very easy to use when you’re on the go.
Midjourney’s Zoom Out feature is amazing, though - you can see some of the images I generated from the original image in the video:
👉 AI Use Case: YouTube Summaries
You’ve probably heard people say YouTube videos can teach you the equivalent of a college or university education…
But there is a lot of helpful information in the tens of thousands of videos available on the platform. If you have enough time to watch and take notes.
If you don’t have time - try a YouTube summary tool.
Uses for YouTube AI tools:
condense lengthy videos into short, digestible summaries, saving you hours of viewing time.
extract the most important points from a video, ensuring you don't miss out on crucial information.
the information is available for quick referencing, making it easier to review or recall the content later.
Here are a few of the available AI YouTube summary tools:

ChatGPT for YouTube: Chrome extension summarizes videos with ChatGPT. (link)
YouTube Summarized: Extracts key points from videos to create summaries. (link)
Scrivvy: Breaks videos down into 5-minute blocks for easier understanding and summarizes your search history. (link)

Thanks for sharing
MJ's zoom out feature is so slick. I saw that Photoshop was doing something similar a couple of weeks ago too. I guess if one app has a great idea, it will ultimately be subsumed by the industry.
