YouTube Faceless Video Creation Guide

Introduction
In this guide, we'll walk you through how to create a YouTube faceless video using AI agents. The process involves generating video content without showing your face, utilizing various AI tools for voice, image generation, and video creation.
Step 1: Workflow Overview
The workflow for creating a faceless video is divided into two main parts:
- Workflow 1: Produce the faceless video, including audio, images, and music.
- Workflow 2: Upload the video to YouTube and update Google Sheets with video details.
Step 2: Setting Up Credentials
Before starting the workflows, you need to set up credentials for various APIs.
- Deepseek API: Create an API key in Deepseek and include it in your setup with the 'Bearer' prefix.
- 11 Labs API: Create an API key in 11 Labs and paste it in the workflow setup.
- Google Cloud Storage: Set up a public Google Cloud bucket for storing images and audio files.
- YouTube API: Enable YouTube Data API and create credentials to upload videos.
- Together AI API: Generate API keys for image creation and include the 'Bearer' prefix.
- No-code API: Utilize a no-code API for automation within your workflow.
Step 3: Workflow 1 - Faceless Video Production
Follow these steps to produce the faceless video:
- Choose Video Category: Set the video category (e.g., animal story) and bucket name.
- Generate Audio: Use 11 Labs to generate an audio script based on the selected category.
- Generate Images: Use Flux AI to create images based on the script's text, divided into 6-second chunks.
- Combine Transcript and Music: Combine the transcript, generated audio, and background music.
- Finalize Video: Finalize the video and save the output to Google Sheets, including video title, URL, post status, and captions.
Step 4: Workflow 2 - Upload to YouTube
After producing the video, the next step is to upload it to YouTube:
- Grab Video Data: Retrieve the video title, URL, and other details from the Google Sheets.
- Download Video: Download the generated video for uploading.
- Upload Video to YouTube: Use the YouTube API to upload the video and update its status in Google Sheets.
Step 5: Workflow 1 - Detailed Notes
For each part of Workflow 1, follow the detailed instructions:
Generate Transcript from Deepseek
Request a transcript from Deepseek using a prompt that converts the video script into a story. Set the tone to "interesting storytelling" and make sure the output is text-only without guiding text or actions.
Generate Audio with 11 Labs
Choose a voice from 11 Labs (e.g., Adam Stone) and generate the audio file to be used in the video.
Generate Image with Flux AI
Use Flux AI to generate images based on the transcript. Each 6-second chunk of text should be turned into a separate image.
Combine Audio, Images, and Music
Combine the generated audio, images, and background music into the final video file. Ensure all elements are synchronized.
Step 6: Upload to YouTube
Once the video is finalized, upload it to YouTube using the YouTube API and update the video status in Google Sheets.
Conclusion
By following these workflows and utilizing various AI tools, you can easily create faceless videos for YouTube. This method eliminates the need to appear on camera while still producing engaging video content.
