Create AI-powered reels, mockups and product videos to promote your art on social media without advanced editing skills
Learn how to use artificial intelligence to design professional video content that promotes your artwork on social media. In this practical Domestika intensive course, illustrator and trainer Jaime Sanjuan shows you how to turn a single piece of art into reels, video mockups, product videos and stories, without recording yourself on camera or mastering complex video editing.
You will work step by step with ChatGPT and Freepik to create prompts, generate images and animate them into short clips. You will design video mockups that place your illustration, painting or digital artwork in real spaces, such as interiors, buildings or clothing, and you will transform your art into products like mugs or T‑shirts with dynamic promotional videos. You will also learn how to combine several clips, add music and integrate text to edit a complete reel entirely with AI tools.
Throughout the course you will build a repeatable workflow to create video content from any artwork, even if you do not produce new pieces constantly. You will learn how to plan messages, write on‑screen copy and design sequences that highlight the value of your art in a clear, attractive and contemporary way. By the end, you will have a finished pack of promotional videos for one artwork and a simple system to keep creating design‑driven, AI‑powered content for your social networks.
This course is ideal for artists, illustrators, designers and visual creators who want to use AI, video and mockup design to present and sell their work online in a professional and sustainable way, without depending on trends or advanced editing software.

Step by step, you will assemble several fragments into a complete reel with music and messages, without traditional editing software.
