1. Initialize n8n to create a new workflow.
2. Start with a Trigger Node; the Webhook is excellent for initiating the workflow with fresh video content ideas.
3. Connect this to a Function Node to reformat the incoming data.
4. Next, use a Google Sheets Node to retrieve video themes and relevant keywords from a pre-selected sheet.
5. Try a Machine Learning Node, like OpenAI’s GPT, to generate video script drafts based on the extracted themes and keywords.
6. Enhance the language flow by connecting the output to a Text Processing Node.
7. Use an Approval Node to manually review the initial script drafts. Send them back for refinement if they’re not up to mark.
8. Prepare the voiceover using a Text-to-Speech API, such as Google Cloud Text-to-Speech.
9. Use a Filter Node to select the best graphics related to the script from your database stored on CMS or cloud.
10. Use an AI image generation node, like DeepAI, if you require additional custom visuals.
11. Connect to a Video Editing Node or API, such as Shotstack, to join together the script, voiceover, and visuals.
12. Implement an Analytic Node to check if the video’s length, rhythm, and other features meet your standards.
13. Make use of the Human Review Node for a final check of the video draft. Human touch is essential.
14. Connect a Notification Node (like an Email sender) to alert you once your video is ready to review.
15. If satisfied, use a Social Media Node to schedule and publish the final video on your desired platforms (for instance, YouTube or Instagram).
16. Lastly, do not overlook the Error Handler Node. This will help catch and record any errors during the workflow process for future refinement.
