from that exact avatar five different times. So, selling gets easier, you're able to increase your prices, and more clients stay on retainer because you're not just a vendor at that point, you're the person who actually understands their business. So, here's one more prompt for you. Open up Claude and run this when

Opening (first 30 seconds)
You guys are not going to believe how ridiculous this is. I gave Astra this one prompt and this is what I got back. >> I'm Astra 6. You're looking at Nate Huerks avatar speaking with his voice clone. I made this video, I found the footage, captured the posts, wrote the script, and built the edit. The music and sound effects, I handled those too. Nate asked for a video about my release and what people are building with me. So, let's open the files. There's a city, a shooter, a Minecraft style game, and the production you're watching right now. Matt Schumer shared this Manhattan world built with Astra in Unreal Engine. >> [music]

What this transcript is
Every word below is the caption track YouTube publishes for this video, pulled from the video itself and reproduced unchanged. It is not Prepublish's writing, not a summary, and not a re-transcription: it is the video's own published captions. English captions, generated automatically by YouTube, in the video’s original language. Source: the video on YouTube. A channel that would rather this page did not exist can ask for its removal through the contact page, and it is removed.
You guys are not going to believe how ridiculous this is. I gave Astra this one prompt and this is what I got back. >> I'm Astra 6. You're looking at Nate Huerks avatar speaking with his voice clone. I made this video, I found the footage, captured the posts, wrote the script, and built the edit. The music and sound effects, I handled those too. Nate asked for a video about my release and what people are building with me.
So, let's open the files. There's a city, a shooter, a Minecraft style game, and the production you're watching right now. Matt Schumer shared this Manhattan world built with Astra in Unreal Engine. >> [music] >> Watch the camera drop from the skyline to street level. Buildings, traffic, storefronts. His post says the project ran over a week with Astra working street by street. He also says finding a setup that could run that long took work.
This is the kind of assignment I can keep returning to. Inspect a scene, make changes, and check the result. Riley Brown took that loop into a game. Riley posted this Call of Duty style shooter and said he played for about 2 hours >> [music] >> asking GPT-6 for changes between matches. You're looking at his actual gameplay. Over here, Flavio shared a Minecraft style build he described as one shot. The clip shows movement and inventory, crafting, and breaking blocks.
Those are creative reports and I've linked their original posts. [music] I like that you can see people interacting with the results. Now, watch what happens when the output needs to stay editable. Tom Kurcher gave Astra an old train drawing. He reports more than 3,000 editable objects in Blender. Watch him select one piece. That's a file someone can open and keep working on. Yun Fan Ye used listing photos to build this house walk-through.
He flagged wrong details himself, so you'd still need to compare it with the real place. I work with that same discipline on a video. Keep the source, inspect the output, and fix what doesn't match. Daniel CH shared this motion video and reported 14 minutes of generation plus two changes. Look at the way the interface moves through the frame. I used that as a visual reference for this edit. OpenAI released GPT-6 Astra on September 3rd with computer use and longer tasks as major themes.
Access is rolling out in stages. For this job, computer use meant opening the original posts, capturing the pages, and checking what was actually on screen. Then I worked through Nate's project folders. I found his avatar setup, his voice clone, and the tools already connected to this workspace. I split the narration into short segments, sent the audio to HeyGen Avatar V5, and organized the results beside the original demos.
This blue background is Nate's own image. I brought that in, too. The edit lives in HyperFrames, where I can control the timing of a camera move, a word, a clip, or a transition. I built the sound around those cuts. Music carries the longer moves. A click lands on an interface change. A short break gives the next shot room to hit. Then I rendered the video and checked frames from the exported file. I also transcribed the finished audio and compared it with the script.
If a title gets clipped or a sound covers a word, I can go back to the project and fix it. That's how I get from an idea to a file you can use. You've just watched the result. The presenter is HeyGen Avatar V5. The voice is Nate's ElevenLabs clone. I directed those tools and built frames edit around real source material. Nate gave me the assignment and feedback. I carried out the production. You can open the video, the subtitles, and the source list, and you can judge the work for yourself.
Give me a project with a clear finish line. What would you have me build? I mean, that is absolutely crazy. So, let me show you guys the prompt and then tell you how much that actually cost. So, I said, "I need you to take me from idea to finished YouTube video. I want you to create me an engaging and professional video about GPT-6 Astra. You need to use Nate Herk's voice clone and HeyGen Avatar." So, I did give it that context.
I said, "Start the video off by telling everyone that this is not Nate and that you orchestrated the entire video. You planned it out, you researched it, you grabbed all the B-roll, you grabbed the screenshots, you edited everything, and you produced a finished video, which is what they're watching right now. I want this to be professional, like it was edited by a human using HyperFrames. Do not give me a draft or a POC.
Give me a finished working version that I can post on my YouTube channel." So, you can see this prompt isn't very specific. It was pretty open-ended. I let it basically do its work, and I got out of its way. I obviously told it a few things like to use my voice clone and my avatar, and to, you know, work in some verification so you're not just giving me the first version. I think it probably would have done that on its own, but I always just throw that in there at the end.
Now, as far as the cost, I have been blowing through this limit like crazy. I've already used two of the resets that they gave us, and I'm 50% left on this third one, but let me show you guys what this would have costed. If this was API billing, it would have been about 60 bucks. Now, I was also on fast mode, so it would have been more expensive, but to get an output like this that took about 50 minutes is really insane.
So, that was one of the first experiments I wanted to run. I'm obviously running a ton more. I've got a ton of other content planned with Astra 6. I mean, I'm having so much fun here, but hopefully you guys enjoyed the video. If you did, please give it a like. Helps me out a ton. And as always, I appreciate you guys making it to the end, and I'll see you in the next one. Thanks, everyone.
