Monetization Ideas
Use AI technology to create fun daily videos of popular virtual cute pets like "Dadun" and "Banana Cat". Attract a large number of views through humorous sound effects, comforting visuals, and fantasy plots, and monetize through platform revenue sharing, advertising orders, or merchandise.
Target Audience
Short video creators and Bilibili UPs
AI painting and video generation enthusiasts
Youth who like cute animals and are skilled at capturing internet trends (such as "Dadun")
Difficulty Level
★★★☆☆ (Moderate difficulty, requires mastery of AI image generation and video creation tools, as well as some storyboarding and editing skills)
Operational Process
Step 1: Select the Main Character and Internet Trend
Find recently popular funny images online, such as the virtual animal "Dadun," which combines a chow dog's head with a hamster's body, or the very popular "Banana Cat."
Prepare their signature sounds or internet slang (like "Bibi Labu" or the sound effect "What the dog doing" with the meme "My Dadun"), as the soul of the video's voiceover.
Step 2: Conceptualize a Magical Fun Storyline
Think of an interesting and light-hearted daily activity, such as "taking the little animal to the beach for a seashell hunt" or "fishing by the river."
Add some humorous and magical fantasy elements to the story. For example: when digging for octopuses at the beach, instead of regular ones, you find octopuses that look like "egg-shaped octopuses"; the oysters you pick up on the rocks even come with garlic sauce, lemon, and noodles by themselves.
Step 3: Use AI Tools to Generate Images and Videos
Open an AI image generation tool, input keywords (such as: a cute little animal with a chow dog's head and a hamster's body driving a car on the beach), and generate nice static images.
Put these created images into an AI video generation tool to bring the little animal to life, making it dig sand, eat, and take group photos dynamically.
Step 4: Post-production Editing and Voice-over Release
Import the AI video clips into editing software, arrange them in order of the story, and keep the total length around 2 minutes.
Attach a cute and soothing background music, and add "meow" or the catchy voiceover "Dadun" when the little animal performs actions.
Check everything is okay, then export the video and publish it on platforms like Bilibili, and actively interact with viewers in the comments section.
Case Review
The cleverness of this case lies in the perfect combination of "internet abstract memes" and "AI content creation." The creator keenly captured Bilibili users' affection for the fictional cute pet "Dadun," using AI technology to make the animal that originally existed only in emoticons and imagination become tangible. The video satisfies the audience's curiosity with absurd fantasy plots (such as oysters with garlic sauce) and provides strong emotional value. The two episodes reaching millions of views prove that "AI + top internet trend + comforting storyline" has tremendous traffic potential among young people, making it a very worthwhile AI content monetization field.
Tools Used
AI Painting Tools (e.g., Midjourney / Stable Diffusion): Used to design and generate initial images of "Dadun" and other fantasy scenes.
AI Video Generation Tools (e.g., Runway / Pika / Kling etc.): Used to turn static cute animal images into dynamic video clips where the animals can move, eat, and go seashell hunting.
Editing Software (e.g., KineMaster / CapCut / Premiere): Used for splicing video clips, adding catchy voiceovers, BGM, and subtitle creation.
