Automated Short Videos (Titles, B-Rolls, And Music)
🚀 Fully Automated Video Creation System
This automation simplifies the process of creating and distributing high-engagement short videos for personal brands, businesses, and faceless channels. It ensures consistency by batch-producing videos with minimal manual effort.
How the Automation Works
The system consists of three interconnected automations that handle different aspects of video creation and publishing.
1. Video Processing Automation
This is the core automation responsible for assembling videos:
- Pulls video files from a designated Google Drive folder.
- Extracts key information using Google Gemini, including:
- A summary of the video’s content.
- The position of the person’s face (to prevent text overlays from covering it).
- Selects a title from a Google Sheet containing pre-written engaging text.
- Chooses a music track from a pool of uploaded audio (explained below).
- Combines video, text, and audio in CreatorMate to generate the final video.
- Uploads the video to social media platforms like Instagram, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and Facebook Reels.
2. Video Management Automation
This automation helps organize and trigger video creation efficiently:
- Users can record videos on their phone and instantly upload them to a Google Drive folder.
- The system monitors the folder for new videos and automatically starts processing when a new file appears.
- Google Sheets tracks all video files, marking which have been used and preventing duplicates (unless re-use is enabled).
3. Music Selection & Management
This automation handles music selection dynamically to ensure variety:
- Users can upload as much music as they want to a designated Google Drive folder.
- The system tracks how many times each music track has been used and automatically rotates them to ensure all music gets used equally.
- If a specific track should always be used, it can be manually set in the Google Sheet.
Why This Automation is Powerful
✅ Hands-free Content Creation – Just record and upload, the system does the rest.
✅ Automated Variety – Ensures a mix of video styles, captions, and music to keep content fresh.
✅ Scalability – Produces content in bulk without extra effort, keeping social media channels active daily.
✅ Engagement Optimization – Places captions strategically so they don’t block important video elements.
