AI Video and Image Creation Workflow: From Idea to Publish

Are you using AI to create content faster?

Are you publishing AI videos across multiple TikTok, Instagram, or other social media accounts to get more organic traffic?

Have you run into problems when distributing content? Or are you worried about account safety when posting across many profiles?

If these problems sound familiar, or if you are just starting to use AI videos to make money online, the workflow and tools in this guide may help.

In this article, we will show you how to create AI images and videos, prepare content variations, and publish them across multiple accounts with GeeLark.

Key Takeaways

• AI content creation should not stop at generating one image or one video. A better workflow is: create assets, generate videos, make variations, then distribute them across the right accounts.
• GeeLark’s AIGC tools can generate images from text or existing images, and can also generate videos from text prompts or reference images.
• Video variations matter. Instead of posting the same video everywhere, you can change prompts, scenes, people, covers, or platform style to test audience response.
• GeeLark cloud phones let you publish through native apps like TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook, instead of switching between devices or accounts manually.
• Each cloud phone has its own Android environment, device information, storage, proxy, and location setup, which makes it easier to manage multiple accounts separately.
• GeeLark’s automation templates can publish videos by simulating real user actions, such as opening apps, scrolling, tapping buttons, selecting videos, adding captions, and posting.

How GeeLark turns AI content creation into multi-account distribution

Most AI tools stop after content creation.

You generate an image or create a short video. After that, you usually need to download the file, open another tool, log in to your social media account, and upload the content by yourself.

Some tools make this a little easier. For example, CapCut lets you create a video and then post it to a social platform. But this usually works best for one platform and one account.

The problem starts when you need to publish the same video across multiple accounts or different platforms.

You may need to log in through a browser or use several phones. And once you manage 20 accounts, or even 100 accounts, the whole process becomes much slower.

For workflows that depend on fast AI image and video creation, traffic testing, or audience feedback, GeeLark brings AIGC and multi-account publishing into one place.

You can use GeeLark’s AIGC tools to turn your ideas into images or videos. Then, you can distribute those videos through GeeLark’s cloud phones, using the native social media apps.

Each cloud phone has a real device brand and model. You can also configure proxies for different accounts. This gives each account its own mobile environment, so you do not have to keep switching devices, changing browsers, or logging in and out of accounts manually.

A simple workflow looks like this:

Idea → AI images or videos → video variations → account selection → mobile app publishing

In the next sections, we will break down each step of that workflow.

Note: If you already have AI models or tools you like, you can keep using them to generate images and videos. If you mainly want to see how GeeLark helps you distribute videos, you can jump to Step 4.

Step 1: Create Images or Visual References With AI

Before generating videos, most people first need to prepare some image assets. These images can be used as visual references or as source materials for the video creation step.

In GeeLark, you can use the Image Generator to create these assets. Depending on your needs, you can generate images from text using text to image, or create new images from existing ones using image to image.

GeeLark includes several popular image generation models, such as Nano Banana Pro, Seedream 5.0 Lite, and Seedream 4.0. You can also choose the output resolution, including 1K, 2K, and 4K.

For example, I used GeeLark’s image generator to create an image. After entering a prompt, I selected Nano Banana Pro as the model and set the output resolution to 2K. Then I clicked Submit. In less than a minute, the generated image appeared on the right side.

You can download the image to your computer. If you do not download it, GeeLark will still save it to the Library, so you can use it in the next step.

Also, you can also upload your own image references or video references to the Library.

As for why this matters, I will leave that for the step 4. Keep reading, and it will make sense soon.

Step 2: Generate Videos From Text or Images

The next step is one of the most important parts of the workflow: generating videos.

In GeeLark, you can use both Text to Video and Image to Video. This means you can create videos from a text prompt or from reference images.

GeeLark also integrates popular video generation models, such as Seedance 2.0, Veo 3.1, and Kling 2.5. You can use these models to generate different types of creative videos based on your needs.

Text to Video

First, let’s look at how to generate a video from text in GeeLark. In this example, I used Seedance 2.0.

After opening the Text to Video tool, you can choose the model, output aspect ratio, resolution, and video duration. At the moment, GeeLark integrates seven video generation models, including mainstream options such as Seedance 2.0, Veo 3.1, KLING 2.5, and Hailuo 2.3. Some models also support sound generation.

The available aspect ratios depend on the model you choose. For example, Seedance 2.0 supports up to six aspect ratios, from cinematic 21:9 to the common vertical video format 9:16.

The output resolution and video length also depend on the model. Depending on your choice, the video resolution can range from 480p to 1080p, and the duration can range from 5 seconds to 15 seconds.

For this demo, I selected Seedance 2.0. I entered a prompt commonly used for Seedance 2.0, chose 16:9 as the aspect ratio, selected 720p as the resolution, set the duration to 12 seconds, and enabled sound generation.

Then I clicked Submit. After waiting for a short time, the video was generated.

You can download the generated video to your computer. GeeLark will also save it to the Library, so you can use it later in the workflow.

Image to video

Image to Video works in a similar way to Text to Video. It uses the same types of video models, and the supported resolution and video length also depend on the model you choose.

The main difference is that Image to Video lets you add multiple reference images, or set a first frame and a last frame.

For example, if you choose Seedance 2.0 to generate the video, you can add up to 12 reference images. You can also choose between All-round reference mode and First & last frame mode.

Use All-round reference when you want the model to follow multiple visual references throughout the video. Use First & last frame when you want more control over how the video starts and ends.

Next, I used GeeLark’s Image to Video tool to create a UGC-style video of a woman introducing a pair of sneakers.

I added an image of a pair of sneakers as the reference. The image was also generated with AI. Then I added a prompt and clicked Submit.

After waiting for a few minutes, it generated a UGC-style sneaker recommendation video.

GeeLark AIGC pricing

Finally, let’s talk about the cost of GeeLark’s AIGC tools.

You can decide whether to use GeeLark’s built-in AI tools based on your own workflow. If you already have AI generation tools you are comfortable with, you can skip this part.

I mention it here because it gives users who have not subscribed to other AI tools another option.

Current pricing is:

Tool	Cost
Image to Video / Text to Video	$1 for every 5 seconds of generated video
Image Generation	$0.07 for each generated image
AI Video Editor	$0.05 for every 30 seconds of the original video (videos shorter than 30s will be rounded up to 30s).

Step 3: Create Video Variations for Testing and Distribution

Do not stop after creating just one video. Instead, use that video as a starting point and create several variations.

For example, in the previous step, I generated a sneaker recommendation video. From there, you could create more versions by changing the prompt, switching to another scene, or using a different person in the video. Then you can compare how each version performs.

After publishing, look at the data and feedback from your audience. This may include likes, comments, watch behavior, or other engagement signals. These results can help you decide what kind of videos to create next.

You should also think about the style of each platform.

Even if you are promoting the same pair of sneakers, the video you post on TikTok may not be the same as the one you post on Instagram or YouTube Shorts. Each platform has its own content style, user habits, and viewing experience.

So before distribution, adjust your videos based on where they will be posted.

Step 4: Publish Through Native Apps Across Multiple Accounts

Once your AI videos are ready, you can publish them through GeeLark’s cloud phones instead of uploading them account by account.

The workflow looks like this:

Create cloud phone profiles → Install native social media apps → Choose automation templates → Publish across multiple accounts

This lets your AI videos move from creation to real app-based distribution on TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, and more.

Set up cloud phones for each account

The first step is to create cloud phone profiles for your accounts.

A GeeLark cloud phone is a real Android phone hosted in the cloud. It is not just a browser profile or a simple emulator. Each cloud phone gives you an independent Android environment for one social media account.

Each cloud phone includes:

• Android versions from 9 to 16
• A real phone brand and model
• Real mobile hardware support, such as an ARM chip and phone motherboard
• Unique device identifiers, including IMEI, MAC address, Wi-Fi address, and Bluetooth address
• Independent storage space

You can also configure a proxy for each cloud phone. This allows different cloud phones to use different IP addresses. GeeLark can also match the phone’s GPS location with the proxy’s IP location, so the account environment stays more consistent.

Once the profiles are created, you can manage them from one dashboard.

You can quickly find the cloud phone you need by using groups, profile names, tags, or remarks. You can also check each phone’s proxy status and see the country or region of its IP address.

This makes large-scale management much easier. Even if you are working with hundreds or thousands of cloud phones, you do not have to search through them one by one. Everything stays organized in one place.

Install social media apps in bulk

After creating cloud phone profiles, the next step is to install the social media apps you need.

In GeeLark, you do not have to open Google Play on each cloud phone and install apps one by one. You can use the built-in App Store to install apps in bulk, like: TikTok、Instagram、YouTube、Facebook.

When you launch the cloud phones for the first time, GeeLark can automatically install the selected apps for you. Once the apps are installed, you can log in to the social media accounts.

Use automation templates to publish videos

GeeLark has a template marketplace for common social media tasks. For video publishing, you can choose templates for different platforms, such as TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts.

For example, you can use templates like:

• TikTok video posting
• Publish YouTube Shorts
• Post Reels video on Instagram
• Post videos on TikTok/Instagram Reels/YouTube Shorts

These templates run on cloud phones and work inside the native social media apps. When the automation runs, it follows the same type of actions a real user would take, such as opening the app, scrolling the screen, tapping buttons, selecting a video, entering captions, and publishing the post.

For example, with the TikTok video posting template, you only need to set a few things:

• Select the cloud phones that will run the task
• Set the posting time
• Upload a video or choose one from the Library
• Add the video caption
• Start the task

After that, GeeLark will run the publishing process on the selected cloud phones.

For teams that publish across TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts, the cross-platform posting template can help you distribute one video to all three platforms without setting up each task separately.

Use the Library as a content hub

The Library is where your content assets stay organized before publishing.

When you generate images or videos with GeeLark’s AI tools, the files can be saved to the Library. You can also upload videos created with other tools.

Then, when you set up a publishing task, you do not need to upload the same file from your computer again. You can simply choose a video from the Library and use it in the automation template.

This is especially useful for teams.

In GeeLark, you can add an unlimited number of team members. People working from different locations can log in to the GeeLark client on their own computers and collaborate in the same workspace.

For example, one team member can create or upload AI videos to the Library. Another team member can select those videos when setting up publishing tasks for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, or other platforms.

This way, your team does not need to send video files back and forth through other apps. The Library becomes a shared content hub for AI-generated videos, uploaded videos, and publishing tasks.

Final Thoughts

AI tools are making it easier to create images and videos, but content generation is only one part of the workflow.

The AIGC tools mentioned above are just one option. You can still use the AI image or video tools you already know and trust.

But when your work involves batch content distribution, multiple social media accounts, or publishing across different platforms, the workflow can get harder to manage by hand.

In that case, you may want to try GeeLark as a safer and more efficient way to manage accounts, organize videos, and publish content through cloud phones and native apps.
