Prompt

GLOBAL LOCK: 
Subject is a mid-30s Caucasian male with a brown beard and medium-length wavy hair. He wears a tan trucker-style baseball cap with a red and white "Vans" logo and a plain white t-shirt. He is positioned in the bottom 40% of a vertical 9:16 frame. The top 60% is a screen recording of Adobe Photoshop 2025. The background behind the man is a dimly lit room with a warm lamp visible. Lighting on the subject is soft and warm from the front-left. The screen recording features a "NanoBanana-Flux Kontext" plugin window. The visual style is a mix of UGC "talking head" and high-tech software demonstration. Pacing is fast with cuts every 2-3 seconds.

[00:00–00:03]
Subject: Looking at camera, gesturing with hands held up.
Screen: A photo of a tall brown brick skyscraper. A bright neon pink brush stroke snakes around the building. Suddenly, the pink stroke transforms into a giant, photorealistic green snake with scales and a flickering tongue.
Camera: Static split-screen.
Speech: "This is Google's new AI image model directly inside of Photoshop."
Lip-sync: High strictness.

[00:03–00:06]
Subject: Enthusiastic expression, pointing upwards.
Screen: A photo of a ribbed clear glass on a table with a spoon. A pink circular mask is painted over the glass. The glass instantly turns a deep translucent blue.
Speech: "That allows you to make selections around any photo..."

[00:06–00:09]
Subject: Making an "OK" sign with fingers.
Screen: A photo of two Corona beer bottles. A pink mask covers the labels. The labels change to read "ROURKE HEATH" in the same font and style as the original brand.
Speech: "...and you can edit it to the craziest degree of precision."

[00:10–00:13]
Subject: Clapping hands together once.
Screen: A pink and white architectural sketch of a modern building. A diagonal pink wipe moves across the screen, transforming the sketch into a photorealistic 3D render of a glass skyscraper with blue sky and trees.
Speech: "This is going to change the game for designers and speed up your workflow tenfold."

[00:13–00:17]
Subject: Pointing with one finger.
Screen: A photo of a modern living room with a beige sofa. A pink mask is painted over the sofa. The sofa fabric changes to a green and blue geometric pattern. The camera zooms in on the fabric texture.
Speech: "You can make a selection around the fabric here and replace it with specific fabrics."

[00:18–00:20]
Subject: Pointing to his own cheek.
Screen: Close-up of a female model's face. Pink masks are painted over her eyes and cheeks. Instantly, professional-grade makeup (eyeshadow and blush) appears on her skin.
Speech: "This is wild! You can add in makeup onto models."

[00:21–00:26]
Subject: Gesturing broadly with both hands.
Screen: A photo of a model in streetwear. A pink mask covers her entire body. The screen transitions to a white document showing the individual clothing items (jacket, shirt, pants) laid out with specific hex color codes next to them.
Speech: "Or you can simply make a selection around a model and ask it to put it in a new document with hex codes for all of the different clothing."

[00:27–00:33]
Subject: Hands open, palms up.
Screen: A white canvas with several small product images. A progress bar appears, and the screen transforms into a fully designed, professional "Vans" website landing page with a hero image and product grid.
Speech: "You can add in a bunch of different clothes into a simple document, then you can create your own custom landing page from it."

[00:34–00:44]
Subject: Pointing to the screen recording.
Screen: A photo of a grey Ford Puma car. A pink mask covers the side of the car. The subject navigates the Photoshop menu: File > Scripts > Nano-Banana-Flux-Kontext. A plugin window appears.
Speech: "The use cases with this are endless. So here's how you can do it too. Make a selection around the area that you want to change and go to File at the top of the page, go down to Scripts and select Nano-Banana-Flux-Kontext."

[00:45–00:50]
Subject: Holding up a finger as if making a point.
Screen: The plugin window is open. The user selects "Nano-Banana (Gemini)" from a dropdown menu. In the prompt box, they type: "wrap the car in RedBull branding."
Speech: "If you don't have this plugin already, type AI in the comments and I'll send you a link to it, it's nine dollars."

[00:51–00:58]
Subject: Smiling, looking impressed.
Screen: The car instantly updates with a Red Bull logo and blue/yellow racing livery. The user then types "wrap the car in google branding" and it updates to Google colors. Finally, they type "wrap the car in GenHQ branding" and it updates to a black and white company logo.
Speech: "Then you can write in a prompt and you can add a reference photo and you can edit anything you want about this photo. This is genuinely wild. I even added my own company logo on the side."

[00:59–01:05]
Subject: Pointing down toward the "Comment AI" text overlay.
Screen: A final grid showing the snake building, the blue glass, and the car. Text overlay: "Comment 'AI' and I'll send you the link!"
Speech: "If you want to learn all about this, I created a free YouTube guide that you can watch, just type AI in the comments and I'll send you a link to everything."

NEGATIVE PROMPT: 
Visual: blurry face, inconsistent beard, hat logo changing, flickering lights, distorted Photoshop UI, messy room background, low resolution, watermarks, robotic movements.
Speech: monotone voice, background noise, audio clipping, lip-sync delay, mispronouncing "Nano Banana," robotic cadence.

Why rourke's Nano Banana Photoshop AI Video Went Viral and the Formula Behind It

This case study analyzes a high-performing Instagram Reel by creator @rourke, which showcases the "Nano Banana" Photoshop plugin. The video utilizes a split-screen UGC (User-Generated Content) format, combining a high-energy "talking head" commentary with rapid-fire screen recordings of AI-powered image editing. With over 86,000 likes and a staggering 43,000+ comments, the video leverages the current AI productivity hype and a "comment-to-receive" automation strategy to explode its reach. The aesthetic is clean, professional yet accessible, featuring a "tech-bro" persona in a warm, indoor setting, demonstrating "magic" features like photorealistic texture replacement, outfit breakdowns, and instant website generation.

What You’re Seeing: A Visual Breakdown

The video is structured as a vertical 9:16 presentation divided into two distinct zones. The top 60% of the frame is dedicated to a screen recording of Adobe Photoshop 2025, specifically highlighting a custom plugin interface titled "NanoBanana-Flux Kontext." We see a pink "selection mask" being painted over various objects—a building, a glass, a car—followed by near-instantaneous AI transformations. The bottom 40% features the creator, a man in his 30s with a beard, wearing a white t-shirt and a tan "Vans" trucker hat. He is positioned in a medium close-up, using expressive hand gestures and direct eye contact to build trust and excitement.

The lighting is a "warm home office" setup, with a soft key light from the side creating gentle shadows on the creator's face, while the background remains slightly out of focus to maintain depth. The editing rhythm is fast-paced, with cuts occurring every 2–3 seconds to sync with new AI demonstrations. The color palette of the screen recordings is vibrant, contrasting the technical UI of Photoshop with the colorful AI-generated results (e.g., a bright green snake, a Red Bull-branded car).

Shot-by-Shot Analysis

00:00–00:03	Giant green snake appears on a skyscraper via pink mask.	Split-screen / Screen Capture	High contrast / "Magic" reveal	Hook: Show immediate "impossible" result.
00:03–00:09	Changing glass color and beer bottle labels to "Rourke Heath."	Rapid cuts / UI focus	Warm, commercial product lighting	Utility: Demonstrate precision and personalization.
00:10–00:17	Sketch-to-photo building and sofa fabric replacement.	Before/After transition	Architectural / Interior design	Aspiration: Appeal to professional designers.
00:18–00:26	Adding makeup to a model and "Outfit Breakdown" with hex codes.	Portrait / Flat-lay UI	Soft fashion lighting	Niche Appeal: Target fashion and beauty creators.
00:27–00:33	Creating a full Vans website landing page from assets.	Web UI scroll	Clean, digital aesthetic	Scale: Show the "end-to-end" power of the tool.
00:34–00:58	Step-by-step tutorial: Wrapping a car in Red Bull and Google logos.	Tutorial / Menu navigation	Technical / Instructional	Retention: Teach the "how" to keep viewers watching.
00:59–01:05	Final CTA: Creator points to "Comment AI" text overlay.	Medium Close-up	Direct address	Conversion: Drive comments and leads.

Why It Went Viral: The Engagement Engine

The primary driver of this video's success is the "Comment for Link" loop. By promising a "full guide" to anyone who comments "AI," the creator triggers a massive influx of engagement. This signals to the Instagram algorithm that the content is highly valuable, pushing it to a wider audience. Psychologically, it taps into curiosity and the "low-friction" reward: the user only has to type two letters to get a perceived high-value secret.

From a platform perspective, the video excels in Watch Time. The first 3 seconds show a giant snake appearing on a building—a surreal, high-contrast visual that stops the scroll. The subsequent rapid-fire examples (beer, fashion, cars) ensure that if one use case doesn't interest the viewer, the next one will within seconds. The "Outfit Breakdown" feature is particularly "save-worthy," as it provides a practical tool for a specific, large sub-community (fashion influencers).

5 Testable Viral Hypotheses

The Surreal Hook: If you show a giant, out-of-place object (like a snake on a building) in a familiar setting, the "pattern interrupt" will increase 3-second hook rates by 40%.
The Personalization Hack: Demonstrating an AI tool by putting your own name on a famous brand (e.g., the "Rourke Heath" beer) increases trust and "wow" factor.
The "Magic Brush" Effect: Using a bright, non-standard color (like the neon pink mask) to "paint" changes makes the AI process feel more tactile and satisfying to watch.
The Lead Magnet CTA: Offering a "free guide" via comments rather than a link-in-bio increases comment-to-view ratios by 10x, boosting algorithmic discovery.
The Multi-Niche Shotgun: By showing 5+ different industries (architecture, fashion, web design, automotive), you ensure the video finds a "seed audience" in multiple interest clusters simultaneously.

How to Recreate: From 0 to 1

Identify Your "Magic" Tool: Find a new AI plugin or software (e.g., Flux, Midjourney, or a specific Photoshop plugin) that has a high visual "wow" factor.
Script the "Problem-Solution" Arc: List 5 common creative pains (e.g., "I can't draw," "I need to change this color," "I need a website") and record the AI solving them.
Set Up the Split-Screen: Record your screen in 4K. Record yourself in a well-lit room. In your editor (CapCut or Premiere), stack them vertically.
The "Pink Mask" Visual: When recording the screen, use a high-contrast selection tool. If the software doesn't have one, add a semi-transparent pink overlay in post-production to mimic the "selection" feel.
Maintain Character Consistency: Wear a recognizable accessory (like the Vans hat) and keep your lighting consistent across all your videos to build a "brand persona."
Edit for "Micro-Dopamine": Ensure every AI "reveal" happens on a beat or a snap of your fingers. Use "whoosh" sound effects for every transformation.
Create the Lead Magnet: Write a simple 1-page PDF or a Notion page explaining how to install the tool. This is your "Full Guide."
Automate the Reply: Use a tool like ManyChat to automatically send the link to anyone who comments your keyword (e.g., "AI").
