For the last 10 years, if you wanted quality, you had to sacrifice speed.

If you wanted speed, you had to sacrifice quality.

That was the law of social media.

But Nano Banana Pro has just proven that you can get world-class branding,

perfect text, and infinite creativity instantly.

This is going to change social media forever.

Let's jump into it.

I'm about to show you how you can make six different types of viral Instagram posts

in a matter of minutes using Nano Banana Pro.

It's insane.

Now, consistency is one of the hardest things about social media in general.

And if we're able to have the ability to create high-quality content in a matter of minutes,

it really takes a load off our shoulders,

which is why I wanted to get this video out fast.

Now, here I have six different viral Instagram posts.

And you can see right here, this one from the 12th of November has accumulated 18,000 likes.

So, in 10 days, 18,000 likes on a simple kind of graphic carousel.

Now, this page here is a kind of money, old money page.

And they've done a great job with their branding, with how it looks.

It obviously takes some time.

Now, let's say I was in the tech niche, okay?

Let's say I had a tech page.

You know, I've got a really good idea.

I want to do something with Steve Jobs.

And you might have seen it in the thumbnail.

So, I want to do something with Steve Jobs, but in this style.

So, what I'm going to do is head over to Nano Banana Pro.

Now, I'm going to be using Higgsville for this because using, you know,

the Gemini website or the Nano Banana Pro section sometimes, there's restrictions, you know.

And on Higgsville right now, you can get unlimited generations for a year.

So, it's crazy and it means I can go hard on this video.

So, I'm going to press that.

And essentially, this will pop up.

You want to make sure that Nano Banana Pro is checked here.

You know, one of the good things about Higgsville is they've got all these kind of new AI tools constantly.

But Nano Banana Pro is the best one for sure for this.

And then here on the formatting.

So, this format right here is 3x4.

So, you want to press 3x4.

If you wanted to do something like a thumbnail, for example, you can see here 16x9, which is like that.

You'd press that.

So, it really depends.

You know, story is 9x16.

3x4.

So, and then you've got the different quality.

For this, I'm going to go all out for you guys.

I'm going to do 4K.

Now, I'm going to paste this prompt right here.

So, all the prompts that I will be using in this video will be in the description.

Okay.

And I will also put like a template that you can just literally put in your information.

So, you can see here, you know, I've put in certain bits of information, etc.

Now, basically, let's generate it.

So, I'm going to press this four times.

Today, we can see four different generations.

Now, for this video, basically, I'm doing a structure where each one that I'm going to show you,

I'm going to do three different variations.

So, the first variation is with no reference, okay, to influence this generation, okay?

So, the first one, we're going to see what it comes up with, with no reference.

Then, we'll do reference.

And then, I'm going to change something.

And I'm going to do this for all of them so that you can see the true capabilities of Nano Banana Pro

and the different ways to use it.

So, I'll see you in a second once this is generated.

Or you can see, as I'm doing this live, it's already started to generate.

And that's insane.

So, I've used no reference shot, and this is the first one it's given me.

So, you can see here, that, and boom, I've got that.

So, that as a front of a carousel would be epic.

And in a matter of, you know, seconds, as you can see live, you know, it's done all four of these.

So, that is, you know, even me, every time I've been using this a lot over the last few days,

but every time I'm using it, I'm shocked by the outputs.

Now, to give you more context, here is my prompt.

Using this, I was able to create the Steve Jobs front page.

Now, how I get these prompts will be in my vault.

I've also made these prompts ready for you, so you can just fill it with your own information

and create whatever you want.

Check out my vault.

It will be in the description below.

The next thing I'm going to do is basically grab this.

So, you can, you know, if I'm on a Mac, screenshot it, etc., and drag it in here.

Get that.

Go like that.

Boom.

And obviously, you can just download it using, like, a Google thing or something.

You know, download it, put it in here.

So, now I've got the reference shot.

And it's essentially just like that.

You can see you can upload images.

On the new Nano Banana Pro, you can do up to 20 images.

I'm literally going to do the same thing.

I'm not going to change the prompts at all, and we're going to see what happens.

So, I'm going to press generate, generate, generate, generate, and we'll see.

But you can see these, you know, as a kind of front cover for a, you know, carousel,

for a post on Instagram, like, insane.

Even to do this on Canva and stuff is not easy.

And this is just an absolute game changer.

So, let's see now, with this reference, what we're expecting.

I probably expect the text to be a bit more potentially central.

You know, the red maybe to be a bit, although I did add a screenshot.

So, yeah.

Let's see.

You know, to be honest with you, I would say that these are probably already, like,

I'd be happy to use these already.

Like, literally from that kind of reference point.

Okay.

Wow.

It's taken it up a level.

Let's see, as well, the text.

Now, one of the big things that's happened with Nano Banana Pro is the strong face identity.

Like, now it's using facial recognition, et cetera, way better.

And another thing is the text.

Did a Nano Banana Pro video, like, you know, a month or two ago,

or whenever it was released the first time.

And the text was still not the best.

Like, we had to tweak it in Canva, et cetera.

But now you can see it literally makes no flaws.

And each time it's adding my Grow With Alex ads.

So, you can see here the difference.

So, now the final thing I would want to do is basically, let's say I want to do this one here.

I'm going to actually download it.

And I'm going to remove this here.

And I'm going to show you something as well right here.

So, I'm just going to drag that in.

And I'm literally going to put change the iPhone to a banana.

And I'll actually add this to the thumbnail as well of this video.

So, you can see.

But I'm not going to do anything, like, complicated for this prompt.

And I've just kind of downloaded it, added it here, this one in particular.

And let's see what happens.

So, I'm going to press generate.

Let's do a few again.

Kind of see what happens.

Okay, wow.

The first one has come and look at that.

So, literally, I've added this as my kind of reference points.

And I literally put change the iPhone to a banana.

And what do we have?

We have the perfect.

I mean, I was.

Yeah, I guess they're all the same because it's not much for it to do.

Because the first time it does it flawlessly.

So, you can see I've got four of these done perfectly.

And there is Steve Jobs with a banana with the headline that I potentially wanted.

And I'm good to go.

So, in a matter of, you know, minutes, I've done this.

And that could be the front cover of my carousel.

Which, you know, this potentially I would have had to pay someone.

I would have had to spend time on.

And it's just an unbelievable game changer.

And I would just simply download it.

And boom, it's done.

You know, obviously, I could change the top.

I could change face.

I could change so many different aspects to this.

You know, you could see, you know, change the background.

If you're branding, you didn't want to do red.

You could do blue.

You could do purple.

You know, there's a ton of different things you can do.

But let's move over to the next ones.

As each one is insane in its own right.

And you can see the different capabilities of Nano Banana Pro.

So, let's jump over to the next one.

Okay, next up might be my favorite.

And that's because these are hard to make.

Okay.

You know, back in the day, we'd have to use Photoshop.

Or some complex kind of graphics design skills to create anything like this.

So, you can see here on this meal plan page.

You know, it's a very kind of information-based graphic.

You know, fried fast foods, processed sugars, etc.

Now, we can make it with Nano Banana Pro.

So, let's head over back to Nano Banana Pro.

Now, for this one, I have a prompt right here.

So, you can see, which I will be sharing in the description.

And you can see that this is kind of more, slightly more complicated prompt.

Because there's more elements involved.

Okay.

And we're going to see what happens with this.

Now, I'm going to just, I've already filled it out for myself.

I want to make one, not about food, marketing.

So, let's make something relevant to me.

So, I'm going to just replace that and press paste.

We're going to do the same thing again.

So, I'm going to press generate on this.

So, generate, generate, generate, generate.

So, let's see what happens.

How good these come out.

So, we'll do the first one.

No reference.

Second one, reference.

See the difference.

And then change some things and go from there.

See right here what we've generated in the first one.

So, just with this simple prompt, let's have a look.

So, marketing, human versus AI.

So, laptop needs a camera.

Phone needs a phone.

Battery needs energy and sleep.

Golden credit card.

I can go 24-7 as long as this doesn't get declined.

Wow.

Wow, wow, wow, wow.

Okay.

Yeah, crazy.

So, you can see it's put category one on this one.

So, there is a mistake on that one.

But still, like these ones, no mistake.

Absolutely incredible.

Because this is so, like, hard to make.

So, I'm going to do the same thing again now.

And just screenshot this.

And throw this back in here like before.

And do the same thing.

So, let's generate, generate, generate.

And see the difference.

See, you know, you know, because I, yeah, these are really good, actually.

So, let's see what the difference is with the reference shot.

And then we'll do the change.

Okay, boom.

All four are done now with the reference shot.

Let's have a look at the difference.

Okay.

So, you can see that this one kind of, you know, the bigger people.

So, you can see that it's definitely taken that into consideration.

Wow.

So, if I had, like, so, if I was doing a brand based on this guy.

So, for example, if this guy was the profile picture.

And he had to be in every shot.

You can see I've done another one.

And he's in it again.

So, incredible.

So, let's do, let's change something now.

So, okay.

I'm going to change one thing.

And put just purple.

Just to see the difference.

As, you know, the rest of the stuff.

Let's, let's just have a look.

Kind of the difference.

You know, if your page was, like, fully purple, for example.

You know, you could just do that.

Okay, purple is done.

And you can see the difference.

You know, and you can see that the text remains consistent.

And, you know, it does so well.

The prompt will be in the description.

Let's move over to the next one.

Because this is just keeps getting better.

Okay, so, I know the next one is going to be a big one for a lot of you.

As, this style is notoriously doing very, very well.

So, here you can see this kind of poster.

Or, this graphic of Cristiano Ronaldo.

With motivational kind of quote.

And the text at the top, etc.

And we're about to create the same thing.

So, I'm going to head back over to Hicksfield.

Go to Nano Banana.

Make sure that's all tidied.

So, Nano Banana Pro 3.4.

And I've got here my reference.

Or my prompt.

Not prepared.

And I'm just going to put this in.

So, again.

A vertical motivation.

So, let's generate.

Generate.

Okay.

And we're back.

So, this is the first one so far.

So, you can see here.

This is with no reference.

And these are actually quite epic.

So, I will not give up.

I will not give up.

So, I wanted to do it slightly different to this one.

It's not a rental I win.

So, okay.

These are not bad at all.

You know.

These are pretty epic to be fair.

So, but let's do the same thing again.

Where I actually give the kind of reference points.

So, I'm going to grab this.

Screenshots.

And just add it in.

And then generate.

Oops.

Okay.

So, here are the images.

So, you can see here.

Okay.

So, I will not give.

Wow.

So, you can see here.

The reference.

And now.

My version.

I will not give up.

And yeah.

I mean.

How good do they look?

I'm going to change something now.

Messi.

In.

Barcelona.

Kit.

Football.

Kit.

With number.

I think.

Is it number 10?

You know.

And then with the text.

I am better than CR7.

So, let's try that.

If you haven't liked the video yet.

Please make sure to do.

So, that I know you like this video.

Then I can make more.

Okay.

So, it's done the.

It's done the change.

Maybe I should have done.

Like.

Actually mentioned.

Kind of.

That it's not the white kit.

I can't.

Yeah.

Oh yeah.

Maybe.

But.

You can see the difference.

I am better than CR7.

Epic.

And in a matter of changing.

Aspect of the prompt.

We get a result like this.

What can I say?

It really is changing everything for us.

Let's move over to the next one.

As again.

It's going to blow your mind.

Okay.

This next one is epic.

And here we have a stoic page.

Now.

This one really shows.

How good Nano Banana Pro has got.

In terms of the 4K refinement.

The detail.

In you know.

The drawings.

Etc.

So, we're going to try and create.

Something like this.

And you can see.

You know.

This over time.

Performs so well.

And you can do this in so many different niches.

And ways.

You know.

So, let's head back over to Nano Banana Pro.

I'm going to remove all of this.

And put in my prompt.

Again.

This will be in.

The description.

I'm going to copy this one.

So, you can see here.

So, this one again.

You know.

Each one has this kind of differences.

So, let's generate.

Now, you can see.

I'm generating these ones.

You can have a read of the prompt.

I'm kind of using.

I'm going to go for something a bit different.

Not to focus just on Stoic.

For this.

I'm going to use AI.

So, I want it to be centered around.

The AI concepts.

To show you the different kind of ways to use this.

So, I'll see you in a moment when it's done.

Okay.

So, it's starting to appear.

So, wow.

I mean.

That's actually really, really good.

Yeah.

I still.

I mean.

Every time you're probably.

You know.

You're watching this.

I'm getting.

You know.

Like.

Look at that one.

That one's insane.

Anyway.

I've taken the screenshot of this.

Or downloaded that one.

And I'm now going to do the same thing again.

So, I'll see you in a moment.

And then we'll be able to compare literally everything with the reference.

Okay.

So, here's what has happened with the reference.

I think.

So, we've got more of a kind of central text.

And you can see here.

Gemini 3.0.

Future of AI is here.

Like.

It's actually done an incredible job.

I don't know which one I would probably go for.

I mean.

It really depends.

I really like this one.

This one's come out really epic.

Wow.

Let's move over to the next one.

Okay.

The next one is something that I really, really wanted to test.

So, here we have this page project.

I'm not going to try and pronounce that right now.

But they done a really good job with their page.

And they do this kind of handwritten stuff.

And, you know.

There was a point where I was like.

Oh.

Let me try a page like that.

And I was thinking.

That's a lot of work.

So, let's actually put this to the test.

So, let's try and create something like this.

So, let me grab a prompt right here.

And see, you know, how good this is going to be.

So, let's remove this stuff.

Which we have used.

So, let's get the prompt out.

So, let's generate.

And I'll see you in a moment.

Okay.

So, it's starting to generate.

So, the difference I did with this one.

Is I wanted to try at night time.

So, it's slightly different.

And.

Oh.

Wow.

Okay.

So, I don't know if you can notice.

Well, you must be able to.

But look at the reflection.

Can you tell if this is like AI?

Like, please answer the question.

Can you tell that this is AI?

Like, I'm not going to stand here and like analyze this properly.

But, you know, if we're watching this back.

Like, can we actually tell that this is AI?

I don't think so.

Tell me where in this photo.

I'm going to do the same thing now.

As before.

And do the reference.

So, let's grab that.

Put that in.

And let's see the difference.

And I'll see you in a sec.

Okay.

So, now we've got the ones with the reference.

So, you can see the original looks like that.

And.

I mean, I don't even know what to say anymore.

Like, this one has no reflection and stuff.

This one kind of does.

Whether it's like in the right.

Whether the reflection is in the right kind of angle.

I'm not going to kind of decipher that right now.

You guys can tell me that.

But.

Honestly, looking at like the edges and everything.

It's crazy.

Okay.

I'm going to put literally the moon is visible.

And that's going to be the change.

And let's kind of just see what happens.

This one might not work.

Because.

You know, the moon is going to add color.

And.

Brightness.

So, it might.

It might affect it.

Let's see.

You know, you could add like a small moon here and something.

You know, I'm literally.

We're going to see this live right now.

Okay.

So, we've got the final ones.

Yeah.

Okay.

I'm not surprised.

So, for this one.

It didn't come out great.

And I knew the kind of moon element would potentially affect it.

But you can see it actually done it pretty well on this.

Like.

You know, I knew that that was a kind of difficult one.

Again.

Insane.

Like.

If it.

You know.

If it had given me like a massive moon or something.

It would have been an obvious AI photo.

And fake.

Whereas this.

Is real.

So.

Incredible.

I'll meet you at the next one.

The final one.

Which is.

Again.

Insane.

Okay.

So, the final one is this one right here.

Which is 43,000 likes in four days.

Which is pretty epic.

It's pretty cool.

So, we've got this kind of astronaut.

Now.

I do believe that this was made with AI.

But we're going to try and recreate this.

And make something different.

Better.

So, let's jump into it.

And see.

You know.

How we can get creative with it.

And you can see there's a bunch of different ones here as well.

So, let's head back over.

Still kind of shocked at this one.

How good that was.

But let me grab a prompt.

So.

Here is the prompt.

Again.

Everything will be shared in the video.

And you know.

You could do this with real life stuff.

Etc.

As well.

So, let's just generate.

Okay.

So, my prompts come back.

So, this is my original prompt.

I've just done without the reference.

I've already started queuing the reference one.

So, we'll let that slide in the background.

So, you can see.

It's pretty good.

So, subscribe again to grow that.

Subscribe.

You can see what it's done.

So, it's pretty good.

Earth is okay.

I guess.

Space is big.

Earth is home.

Space is big.

Earth is home.

Very interesting.

So, we can see that this is kind of the original one.

So, now.

With the reference.

What will happen?

Obviously, I added purple.

You could do kind of anything to it.

You know.

Change.

Etc.

Again.

The template will be available to you.

Or.

But this is pretty epic.

You know.

You could literally change this to anything.

Okay.

So, this is with the reference shot.

So, there's a reference shot.

Wow.

That's lit.

You can't replace me.

But good luck.

Subscribe to grow that legs.

That's.

Pretty.

Pretty epic.

I'd say.

That's a really good job.

So, let's.

What shall we change?

He.

Let's get creative.

He has a parrot.

On his shoulder.

If you have a video idea for me.

Want me to explore a certain aspect of social media.

Or AI.

Let me know in the comments.

I'm always getting inspiration from everywhere.

Okay.

So, the final changes have come.

And.

What did I ask for?

A parrot on the shoulder.

And.

I mean.

It looks epic.

For the thumbnail.

I'll add.

Him with some bananas or something.

So, if you see that in the thumbnail.

You know why.

But look at that.

Like.

That's actually insane.

Like.

You've got a Coke tan there.

Um.

But.

This is the power of Nano Banana Pro.

It's.

Blowing my mind every time I'm using it.

And.

Yeah.

You don't want to miss out on Hicksfield.

As they're currently offering unlimited generations on Nano Banana Pro.

You can get the link and a code for an extra 10% off in my description.

Hicksfield is great.

Because anytime there is a new update with an AI tool.

They are the first to get access.

And.

I have my entire workflow there.

It just makes things so much easier.

They also have the cheapest prices on the market.

As you can see right here.

And finally.

Hicksfield are giving away 10 Nano Banana Pro credit.

To everyone.

Even on free plans.

Every single day.

That everyone has a chance to create amazing content.

Like we've just done.

One of the hardest things about being a content creator.

Is the need to constantly consistently post content.

And AI tools like Nano Banana Pro.

Allow us to gain some time back.

Yes.

We're using other profiles.

And other content.

As reference points.

But we're using that to create something different.

It's not about copying.

It's about recreating.

Getting inspiration.

Saving time.

And giving your own value to the world.

If you've enjoyed this video.

And want me to make more.

Be sure to let me know in the comments.

And drop a like.

So that I can make more videos like this.

All the resources I've mentioned in this video.

Will be in the description.
