The Core Formula
Audio, clips, style — three separate controls, one variable per preview, and a diagnosis table that turns every weak preview into a specific fix.
Academy / Rotor Videos Ladder / Level 1
Rotor Videos: AI Music Video Foundations
The beginner entry point into Rotor Videos as your release-visual department. You learn the three-step engine — audio, clips, style — choose clips as one visual world, stop shots recycling, pick a style by the song’s pulse, review before you buy, and deliver a Canvas, an artwork visualiser and a music video that look like one release.
Platform Formats
Spotify Canvas loops, audio-reactive artwork videos for YouTube, and full music videos built from stock and your own footage.
Release-Ready Habits
The job sentence, the four-pass review, the credit log, file naming and two backups behind every download.
What You'll Cover
Twelve sessions from a new account to a complete release asset pack.
The sessions cover the Rotor interface and credit model, the three-step engine, preparing the master, clips as a visual world, the clip ring and recycling, style families, filters and text, the four-pass review, Spotify Canvas, album artwork videos and YouTube publishing, and the MWHQ song-to-YouTube-to-Buffer pipeline.
By the end you can take any song you control to a coherent Canvas, artwork video and music video in one session, with every credit logged and every file backed up.
Where This Level Fits
The foundation for running release visuals with Rotor.
Level 1 gives you a finished asset pack and a repeatable method. Level 2 builds on it with verified lyric videos, Apple Music Album Motion, social crops, cut-downs, AI-generated footage and AI music rights, and a release-campaign system.
Right for artists, producers and creators with a finished song who have never made release visuals. No video editing or AI experience required.
