How One Account Hit 230K Followers in 3 Days (AI Strategy Inside)

How One Instagram Account Used Google's VEO 3 to Build a Massive Following—And How You Can Steal Their Exact Strategy

The Insane Growth That Changed Everything

Two days ago, this Instagram account didn't exist. No followers. No videos. No strategy.

Now? 230,000 followers. 19 million views.

From just 13 videos — all made with Google's VEO 3. ( as the time of writing)

This isn't just another viral moment. This is proof that we've hit a turning point in content creation. For the first time ever, you can go from zero to a full-blown personal brand without touching a camera, hiring a crew, or spending thousands on equipment.

Why This Matters for Your Business RIGHT NOW

If you've ever said "I want to build a brand but don't know where to start" — this is your moment.

What used to take months of planning, filming, and editing can now be done in a weekend. VEO 3 isn't just another AI tool — it's the shortcut entrepreneurs have never had before.

The numbers don't lie:

• 230K followers in 72 hours

• 18M+ views from 13 videos

• Zero traditional production costs

• Complete scalability

This tutorial breaks down their exact strategy using the "Stormtrooper Vlog" format they pioneered — cinematic, authentic-feeling content that audiences can't stop watching.The Complete Workflow

Step 1: Script Generation with AI (ChatGPT or Claude)

Tool: ChatGPT (free tier) or Claude
Purpose: Generate compelling scripts and storylines

How to do it:

1. Sign up for a free ChatGPT account or use Claude

2. Use this prompt structure for your script:

Create a dramatic, selfie-style vlog script for [your character/brand]. The scene should include:
- A setup: Where are we? What's happening?
- Chaos element: Something goes wrong or unexpected
- Character interaction: Maybe an argument or comedic moment
- Strong ending: Punchline, reaction, or cliffhanger

Make it feel authentic, like someone really recorded this moment during a crisis.

Pro Tips:

• Start with a clear setup to orient your audience

• Add chaos - something always goes wrong

• Include character interactions (arguing with Greg, calling out to teammates)

• End with impact - funny, dramatic, or mid-action

Step 2: Video Generation with Google's VEO 3

Tool: Flow (Google's VEO 3 interface)
Purpose: Turn your script into photorealistic video

Setup:

1. Go to Flow's website

2. Sign up with your email

3. Start the one-month free trial (10 free generations)

4. Important: In settings, select VEO 3 for better quality

Creating Your Video:

1. Take your ChatGPT script

2. Convert it into a visual prompt using this structure:

A cinematic handheld selfie-style [shot type], set in [environment] at [time of day]. 
[Character description] holds the camera at arm's length, [character state/emotion]. 
[Environmental details and atmosphere]. 
[Action sequence]. 
[Dialogue/monologue]: "[Your script here]"

Example Prompt:

A cinematic handheld selfie-style medium shot, set on a snowy battlefield at dusk. A stormtrooper in full white armor holds the camera at arm's length, his helmeted face perfectly framed as snowflakes swirl gently in the cold air. His armor is lightly dusted with frost and ash. Behind him, a vast frozen landscape stretches into a shallow-focus blur—explosions flicker in the distance, and streaks of missile trails arc across the twilight sky. The stormtrooper slowly pans the camera sideways, revealing another stormtrooper crouched in the snow, carefully sculpting a snowman with exaggerated focus. Back on camera, the first stormtrooper yells with urgency: "Okay so we're in the middle of an active firefight, people are screaming, and Greg's building a darn snowman."

Visual Enhancement Keywords:

• Camera style: "handheld," "shaky," "selfie style"

• Environment: "dense forest," "scratched cockpit," "snowy wasteland"

• Atmosphere: "distant blaster fire," "crackling sparks," "helmet breathing"

Step 3: Video Editing and Polish

Tools: CapCut (free) or Adobe Premiere Pro (professional)

CapCut Workflow (Beginner-Friendly):

1. Import your VEO 3 generated clips

2. Trim clips to remove dead space

3. Adjust pacing - keep it snappy

4. Add transitions between scenes

5. Layer multiple clips for storytelling

6. Export in 1080p or 4K

Adobe Premiere Pro Workflow (Advanced):

1. Create new project with appropriate settings

2. Import and organize clips

3. Use color correction for consistency

4. Add professional transitions

5. Layer audio tracks

6. Apply stabilization if needed

7. Export with optimized compression

Key Editing Principles:

• Keep cuts tight and purposeful

• Maintain consistent pacing

• Use the rule of thirds for framing

• Add subtle music or sound effects

• Ensure clear audio throughout
