Once you start filming, don't go back or leave the page — you'll lose your entire take.

Wrap protocol — save your footage first
Once you leave this screen, your recording is gone. Save your video before you do anything else.
Film once. Get a library.
Save the full video for YouTube — or split it into 8 clips ready to post as Shorts, Reels, and TikToks.
✨ Auto-trimming your handles… This takes about as long as your video — preview will update when ready.
Trim handles, cut unwanted takes, or set new in/out points.
🎬 Your YouTube video is saved — now make it shine
Long-form edits need transitions, graphics, and pacing. Day 4 of 5 Videos in 5 Days will get you started.

🎬
Before you film
A few quick things from Elfina to help you get the most out of every session.
📹
Film it all — don't stop and restart
Keep rolling even if you stumble. You fix it in the edit. The best takes often come after a mistake.
👁️
Read → pause → look → speak
Read the prompt, take a breath, look directly at the camera lens, then answer. That pause is your power.
✂️
Give yourself handles — this matters.
Pause 2–3 seconds before and after each answer. When you're done, Creative Compass will auto-trim your handles on the full video, and you'll also get to trim each of your 8 clips individually to cut any unwanted takes. Handles = clean cut points.
🎥
Set up a second camera
Hit record on a second camera (phone, DSLR, webcam) while you film in the app. You'll have a B-roll angle to cut to — and a backup if anything goes wrong.
From Elfina
TIP
…
How often do you want these?
You just filmed a video.
Be seen. Be heard. Be you.
Now edit, add captions, and post. Done is always better than perfect — and you showed up today. 🎉
You're helping others 💛
A short video review from you could give someone else the courage to show up on camera. 30 seconds. One question. It means the world.
Missing the pre-filming tips? Turn them back on in your . 💛
If another app is using your camera (FaceTime, Zoom, etc.) it won't work here. Close it completely first.
📱
Your camera captures more than you see
The preview is portrait, but your review plays back in landscape — so more of the background will be visible to viewers. Tidy the space behind you just in case.
🎬
BLOOPER REEL
Oops — this one's going in the blooper reel.
Something went wrong behind the scenes. We're sorry for the interruption — we'll get it in editing.

Creative Compass — User Guide
🚀 Getting Started
👤Fill in your profile (niche + audience) once — Creative Compass uses it in every session so you never have to repeat yourself.
🎯Your niche is your broad topic area (e.g. "health coaching", "interior design"). Your audience is the specific person you're talking to (e.g. "burnt-out mums re-entering work").
✏️The more specific your profile, the more tailored your prompts. Vague in = vague out.
💡Not sure of your niche or ideal client profile (ICP) yet? Day 1 of 5 Videos in 5 Days walks you through both. Unlock in VIP
🎥 Filming Styles
Choose your filming style before generating prompts — it changes how the hints are written for you.
🗣Talking Head — Direct to camera. Hints focus on eye contact, pausing, and speaking to one person.
🛋Interview Style — Slightly off-lens, relaxed and conversational. Feels like a friend is asking.
🌿Lifestyle — Behind the scenes, personal content. Hints encourage rawness — imperfect is good.
🎓Tutorial — Teaching on screen. Hints include cues to reference slides or show what you're describing.
⚡Action / Demo — Filming while doing. Hints include physical cues: grab props, show hands, demonstrate live.
🔀Hybrid — Talking head that cuts to slides. Hints signal natural handoff points between face and screen.
📺 YouTube & Course Content
The customised prompts on the home screen are built for your external journey — content you publish on YouTube, a course platform, or social media.
📋You get 8 prompts that map to a complete video arc: Hook → Relate → Teach → Wrap → CTA.
🟢Beginner — 8 open questions, like a warm conversation. Just answer naturally.
🟡Intermediate — Structured prompts with a clear angle and built-in momentum.
🔵Advanced — Short anchor phrases. You flow freely and return to them as pivot points.
🎬Film it as one session — you film once and get your full YouTube video and 8 ready-to-post clips.
🔄Your trial includes unlimited customised sessions. Themed packs — unlock in Premium288 prompts + live calls — unlock in VIP
🌱 Community & Journey Content
The themed packs are built for your internal journey — uncovering blocks, building confidence from the inside out, and sharing your story in the community.
🎁These are not about polished content. They're about getting honest and being seen.
📅One prompt per day is the rhythm. Come back tomorrow for the next one — streaks build momentum.
📣After filming, share your video in the community. Being witnessed is part of the work.
🔁When you finish a pack, you can start it again. Prompts land differently the second time around.
✨Weekly themed packs from Elfina, added fresh. Unlock in Premium
🌟100 themed creator prompts — a full journey of topics to explore. Unlock in Premium
🖥Camera check — before you film, you get a live preview with built-in framing tips (headroom, framing, lighting). Check everything before you start.
↩Flip & Mirror — tap Flip to switch between front and back camera. Tap Unmirror to see yourself as others see you.
🎨Lighting filters — Natural, Soft, Warm, Bright. Tap one before you film — it stays on for the whole session.
⏱While recording, the indicator shows elapsed time + which prompt you're on (e.g. Recording · 0:45 · Prompt 3 of 9).
🎙Mic check — the bar at the bottom shows your audio level. Speak aloud — if the bars pulse, your mic is working. No movement = check your device settings.
📱While filming, a picture-in-picture preview stays in the corner. Drag it anywhere or resize it using the corner handles.
🎓Want Elfina's full filming method? Day 3 of 5 Videos in 5 Days covers it. Unlock in VIP
📱 Phone vs 💻 Desktop
Creative Compass is a web app — use it on your phone, tablet, or computer. No download needed. A native iOS and Android app is on the roadmap.
📱On your phone — portrait works best. Great for community posts, Shorts, and Reels. You can film and share straight to your socials.
💻On desktop or laptop — the best experience for landscape YouTube videos. Bigger preview, more editing control, and your clips stay in landscape for easy trimming.
🎬Want both formats? Film on desktop in landscape — you get your full YouTube video, then tap Trim on each clip to export vertical versions for Shorts and Reels.
⏺ Recording
▶Tap ● Start Recording when you're ready — then film straight through all prompts without stopping.
➡Tap Next Prompt to move on.
🚫Do not stop and restart between prompts. Keep rolling even if you stumble — that's what editing is for.
🏁When you reach the last prompt and tap Next, the recording ends and takes you to the save screen.
🎁Filming a themed pack? Each pack prompt films and saves on its own — no need to do them all at once. Come back tomorrow for the next one.
✂️ Built-in Editing
As soon as you reach the save screen, Creative Compass auto-trims your handles — tightening the in and out points so there's a clean breath at the start and end. No button to tap — it just happens. Takes about as long as your video.
⬇Save video to your device — once auto-trim finishes, tap this to save your YouTube video (trimmed version). The preview updates so you can see what you're saving.
↪Save raw video without auto-trim — small link under the buttons. Use it if you want the untrimmed original for your own editor.
✂️Get my 8 clips — splits your full video into one clip per prompt, using your timestamps. Clips stay in landscape so you can reframe each one.
📱Export as vertical — tap Trim on each clip, drag the crop zone over your face, then tap "Export as vertical". This is how you get 9:16 versions for Shorts, Reels, and TikTok.
✏️In the same trim screen, set your in and out points to cut unwanted takes. Each clip also has a Save and 📤 Share button.
📤Share to an app — on mobile, tap the 📤 button to send a clip straight to CapCut, Instagram, TikTok, or any app on your phone.
💡Film once — get your full YouTube video and 8 short-form clips ready to post.
🎓Want to level up your edit with graphics, transitions, and pacing? Day 4 of 5 Videos in 5 Days will get you started. Day 4 in VIP
🏁 After Filming
💾Always save your video or clips to your device before leaving the app. Once the screen closes, the recording is gone.
📤For YouTube content, post your full video to YouTube and each clip as a Short / Reel / TikTok.
📣For community prompts, post your video in the Authentically You community on Skool — the link is on the done screen.
