Building a fictional brand campaign end to end in an editor (CapCut PC, Sep-Oct 2026): logo, products, model/product sheets, 30 s generation, scene split and chat-based edits

Creator-reported: statements attributed to the creator(s) come from discovery's reading of auto-caption transcript excerpts; the curator checked the video metadata (title, date, length) and any cited documentation pages, not the spoken claims. Nothing was tested; promotional or sponsored framing applies where stated. Mikkel Lassalle CapCut videos (2026-09-22, 2026-10-15) plus an Artlist Seedance 2.5 video (2026-08-11). Pipeline: invent the brand and make a logo with GPT Image 2 (his preference for logos and character sheets); develop products and style frames in a design workspace with Nano Banana Pro (his preference for cinematic frames); create one character sheet for the model and one for the product and tag both in the prompt; add camera/style cues (e.g. "ARRI Alexa 35 aesthetic"); generate up to 30 s with Seedance 2.5 (still capped at 720p in August per him; start/end frames also available); import into the editor, use "split scenes" to auto-cut the generation into shots, reorder (e.g. move the packshot to the end), add music/transitions; then use CapCut's chat "Edit Pilot" for timeline tasks such as reformatting to 9:16 and scaling clips to fill the frame for a short-form cut. Repurposing one long generation into shots and vertical versions is the practical gain. The Avatar-"inspired" video title references a famous film franchise - style imitation of a specific franchise is an IP/marketing risk for commercial work. Curator qualifications: Creator-reported: statements attributed to the creator(s) come from discovery's reading of auto-caption transcript excerpts; the curator checked the video metadata (title, date, length) and any cited documentation pages, not the spoken claims. Nothing was tested; promotional or sponsored framing applies where stated. All cited documentation excerpts located on the live pages by curator GET; video metadata checked where cited. Creator video (auto-caption transcript excerpts read by discovery; promotional/affiliate); not curator-verified beyond video metadata. Limitations: Creator statements were read by discovery from auto-captions (ASR); not re-verified by the curator. Sponsored; one transcript (R6) unavailable; outputs not inspected. Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
