detail.loadingPreview
Automate your short-form video content creation from trending news to social media posts. This workflow leverages AI to discover viral topics, generate scripts, create dynamic visual backgrounds, and publish ready-to-share videos to your social platforms.
About This Workflow
Transform your content strategy with this powerful n8n workflow designed for seamless AI video generation and social media publishing. Running on a daily schedule, it intelligently scours trending news for viral potential using Perplexity AI. OpenAI then crafts compelling, 30-second video scripts and engaging captions optimized for TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and Instagram Reels. Complementing the script, ScreenshotOne generates dynamic video backgrounds from the source article. Finally, leveraging HeyGen (inferred from workflow title), an AI avatar video is created and automatically published across your chosen social media channels. Eliminate manual content bottlenecks and maintain a consistent, engaging online presence with minimal effort.
