Begin by setting your plan and writing down the script, determining the suitable backgrounds, number of scenes, characters, props, and sounds needed.

Start by adding the first scene to introduce the topic, followed by drawing paths to create the desired picture. Save and return to the video. Proceed to the second scene, showcasing moving money, and adjust scene settings accordingly. Duplicate scenes, resize pictures, and create variations to enhance the visual impact.

Move on to the third scene, adding the title, and resize and position the text accordingly. In the fourth scene, incorporate additional text and resize it for optimal visual appeal.
