And I’d Do It Again

I was deep in the edit bay at 2 AM, running on cold coffee and obsession.

Kling 2.0 had just launched and I couldn’t stop generating clips.

It wasn’t just better, it was insanely better. Imagine a film camera that responds to your thoughts in real time. That’s where we are.

Stop watching others leverage AI while you're stuck with outdated workflows.

🎬 The Game Just Shifted

Kling AI 2.0 isn’t just an upgrade; it’s a portal. Over 22 million users have already stepped into it, and after testing the latest Motion Model, I get why. It nails expressions, pulls off complex camera angles, and moves like real life.

🧠 Story First, Tech Second

The idea for my launch film started with something Friedberg said: once machines handle the heavy lifting, we go back to storytelling. I built the script around that. Eight hours later, with help from Ryan and ChatGPT, I had a tight 1:30 concept. Then I sketched a light shotlist to map it all visually.

✍️ Prompts I Don’t Share Publicly

The prompts? Let’s just say they’re not hitting public timelines. But I do send them out in a monthly note to a small group that’s building cool stuff. It’s like cheat codes for AI creators, because what most people post online barely scratches the surface.

🎛️ Figma Was Mission Control

Script, VO, shotlist, references, it all lived inside Figma. I used it like a central brain. Once Kling rendered my scenes, I matched visuals to voice lines and watched the edit practically assemble itself.

🖼️ Midjourney + Kolors 2.0 = ⚡

I sourced every image with Midjourney V7. It blended beautifully with Kolors 2.0, which now supports stylization, inpainting, and outpainting. You can reshape an image twenty different ways and keep the story intact.

🤝 Visual Pros Who Took It Further

I pulled in @bygen for the opener and @macbaconai for the closer—both delivered stunning work. If you haven’t seen Mac’s sci-fi sequence,

and tell me it doesn’t spark ideas.

🎵 Soundtrack Like Zimmer, Budget Like Me

I couldn’t license Hans, so I turned to Ryan Taubert, one of the most cinematic composers around. Paired with my own voiceover, the whole vibe clicked.

đź“ą 328 Shots. Two Days. No Team.

I ran 328 clips through Kling in just two days. No burnout. Just forward motion.

🔧 Edit With Words, Not Just Clips

One of the wildest upgrades? Multimodal editing. You type the change you want. Swap something. Remove a shot. Add a new prop. All in seconds.

⚠️ Kling 2.0 Isn’t Perfect

It still slips during intense movement, gets shaky with crowds, and—classic AI—hands can glitch. Anime remains tricky, too. But with smart workarounds, the results are next level. (And yes, longer videos use more credits. So plan accordingly.)

đź’ˇ Final Thought

This isn’t just about software. It’s about returning to something timeless: craft, story, and expression. And when the tech fades into the background, that’s when it really hits.
