Plan your content calendar and auto-post to Skool, Circle, or Mighty Networks
Community Challenges tap into members' intrinsic motivations: curiosity, friendly competition, and the desire to learn or show off their expertise. By framing participation as a playful or educational task, you lower barriers for those who might feel shy or uninspired, while rewarding creativity and effort.
In AI Video communities, challenges also encourage hands-on experimentation, knowledge sharing, and peer learning. They create a shared experience that strengthens relationships, celebrates diverse skills, and keeps members coming back for more. Recognition, even in small ways, helps members feel valued and seen.

Pick a challenge template that fits your community's interests and skill levels. Announce it with clear instructions, a catchy title, and a specific timeframe. Encourage all members to join, and offer a simple reward or public recognition for participation or best entries. Use threads, polls, or hashtags to track responses and spark discussion. Celebrate results and highlight creative efforts to close each challenge.
For all platforms, use clear visuals, pin or highlight challenge posts, and enable easy sharing. Use platform-specific features like hashtags, threads, or polls to organize entries and encourage interaction. Engage in the comments to keep momentum and thank members for participating.
To encourage exploration of various AI video tools, create challenge prompts that specifically ask members to generate a short clip using a different AI model each week. Include fields in the template for members to note which platform they used, challenges faced (like render times or prompt limitations), and comparisons between models. This not only educates the community but also fosters discussion around strengths and weaknesses of each tool.
Include sections in your template for members to share their full text-to-video prompts, explain their rationale behind prompt wording, and provide before-and-after outputs. You can also add fields for members to discuss prompt tuning techniques, such as adjusting temperature, frame interpolation, or style transfer options. This approach turns each challenge into a learning opportunity for prompt optimization.
Add explicit template fields that ask members to detail their post-processing steps, such as upscaling, frame interpolation, color grading, or audio synching. Encourage before-and-after comparisons, and invite users to link to tools like Topaz Video AI or Descript. This not only showcases creative workflows but also helps members troubleshoot and improve their own post-production techniques.
Design templates that prompt each participant to generate a segment of a story using AI video tools, then submit their segment along with a brief synopsis and the prompt used. Include fields for timestamp suggestions and narrative continuity notes. At the end of the challenge, merge segments to create a community-produced AI video narrative, highlighting both technical and creative collaboration.
Create a template that asks members to generate videos with contrasting source types, such as photorealistic vs. animated prompts. Include fields for tool selection, prompt details, and side-by-side output comparisons. Encourage detailed commentary on where the AI performed well or struggled (e.g., consistency in motion, facial expressions, or background rendering) to prompt discussion on tool capabilities.
Include a mandatory field in your template where members specify the AI model used, any copyrighted content referenced, and how they addressed attribution. Add a reminder about best practices (e.g., only uploading videos generated from models with transparent data policies, noting when outputs are transformative, or when commercial use is restricted). This ensures transparency and educates the community on ethical AI video generation.
