The speed is real. Here's what keeps the output from reading like everyone else's.
- •Adapt the script in your own speaking rhythm, not a straight read of the blog post: written and spoken pacing are different, and a direct port reads as robotic.
- •Use a cloned or closely-matched voice sample instead of a stock AI voice if this content will run under your name or brand.
- •Do a manual caption and timing pass before publishing: auto-generated captions routinely mis-time on emphasis words.
Time Required
1–2 hrs per video
Expected Result
A polished 3–8 minute YouTube video (or series of Shorts) derived from an existing blog post, complete with AI voiceover and visuals.
Recommended Tools
Adapt the Script
Paste your blog post into Claude and ask it to rewrite it as a spoken video script, conversational, present tense, with natural pause points marked. Target 150 words per minute.
Generate the Voiceover
Paste the script into ElevenLabs and choose a voice that matches your brand. Generate the full audio track and export as MP3.
Create Visuals with AI
Use Runway ML's image-to-video or Canva AI's video tool to generate short visual clips (5–10 seconds each) to accompany each section of the script.
Edit and Add Captions
Import your audio and generated clips into Descript. Use its auto-caption feature to add subtitles. Trim for pacing and export in your target format.
Optimize for Platform
Use ChatGPT to write the video title, description, and 5 SEO tags for YouTube. Ask it to also generate a thumbnail concept you can build in Canva.
