AI Video Creation Made Simple:  From Idea to Finished Video  

Creating video content doesn’t have to be complicated, expensive, or time-consuming.

In this hands-on Toolbox Tutorial, Sue Peahl shows you how to go from idea to finished video using simple AI-powered tools. Whether you’re building training, marketing content, or internal communications, you’ll learn a practical approach to creating videos that look polished without requiring a full production setup.

This is a working session. You won’t just watch the process—you’ll start creating your own video during the session.

What you’ll learn: 

  • How to turn an idea into a structured video quickly
  • How to use AI to support scripting, visuals, and delivery
  • A simple, repeatable workflow for video creation
  • How to create content without advanced editing skills

Who this is for:
Instructional designers, trainers, facilitators, consultants, and anyone who needs to create video content but wants a faster, simpler way to do it.
