Going from Blog to Social Media Video using AI

Did you know that there are over 572 million blogs on the internet?! Yes, and these blogs have dedicated reader communities as well. A survey showed that 77% of internet users regularly read blogs, even if just to skim through. 

Clearly, the blog universe has its own charm. However, the digital content world today is majorly video-centric. Over 51% of people say that they prefer video over text content and more than 92.8% of worldwide internet users consume video content each week!

Text content and video content have their own strengths in terms of communication, and distribution channels. However, when it comes to overall reach and ease of viewing, video content takes the trophy. This is specifically true for social media. 

The disadvantage though is that text content is considered much easier to create than video content that needs professional production and editing skills. With Steve, this major barrier breaks and how!

Videos are as easy as just typing in text with an AI tool like Steve. In fact, you can simply paste your blog URL on Steve and have it convert the content of the blog into a stunning video.

How? Read on to know the simple steps to convert blog to social media video:

Step 1

Login to Steve with your e-mail id and select either the ‘Blog’ tab to start. Copy the URL of the promo blog and paste it into the Blog to Video or Blog to Animation section of the dashboard as per your requirement. 

Step 2

Review the summary of the blog that is generated by AI, select from Small, Medium, or Large lengths and easily edit the summary if required to highlight key points if it is not already chosen by the AI. 

Step 3

Steve now creates the script for the video from the summary and divides the script into scenes. Review and add to the script if required.

Choose from the array of options for music, voice-over, video format, etc and enter the keyword to define the context or the AI.

Hit Next.

Step 4

And your video is ready!

You can review each scene and simply swap visuals from a huge video and image library to customize. You can also customize music, colours, text and other parts of the video in a single click.

Finalize the video as per your taste and click Publish to get your final video to download.

Yes! It is that easy to convert a lengthy blog into a super engaging, stunning video for social media. Have you tried this using Steve yet?

Summarise a Blog Post in under 2 mins with AI

Blogs are great examples of digital content formats that have really stood the test of time and still command a consistent audience following in the ever-changing world of online content. They are great for conveying information, educating users, starting conversations about a specific topic or even to simply rant. Since blogs are text-based primarily, they are filled with valuable, well-researched content minus all the frills. They are pure value.

However, with many digital platforms now becoming more and more video-centric, it is also becoming important for blogs to be promoted, repurposed or redesigned into video or visual formats too. And, that is where AI plays a great role!

With Steve, you have an amazing AI tool that reads your blogs, summarizes the content and makes it readily available to be turned into a video format in minutes!

Step 3

Convert a Promotional Blog into a Promo Video

When a new product, feature or a service is being launched by your brand or business, one of the main activities that are planned along with the technical aspects are the marketing collaterals for the launch. As important it is to ensure that your new product is flawless and offers amazing value to the users, it is also very important to communicate that to the users to invite them to try out the product through marketing efforts.

While there is a lot of content created around the launch, one main type is the good old blog. Blogs are inherently very convenient to communicate well-rounded information and so a launch blog is almost always part of marketing campaigns. With the popularity and success of videos skyrocketing, videos are another really important part of launches. Now, what if we did not have to create two separate pieces of content for blogs and videos but could actually repurpose promotional blogs to create videos in minutes?

Well, that is very much possible with Steve! The AI analyses blog content and takes you from blog to video by summarizing the blog and highlighting important points in a very crisp, engaging manner. How? Let us see how to convert a promotional blog into a promo video in a few simple steps below:

Step 1

Login to Steve with your e-mail id and select either the ‘Live’ or ‘Animation’ tab to start. Copy the URL of the promo blog and paste it into the Blog to Video section of the dashboard. 

Step 2

Step 3

Steve now creates the script for the video from the summary and divides the script into scenes. Choose from the array of options for music, voice-over, video format, etc and enter the keyword to define the context or the AI.

How to go from Blog to Video for Social Media in under 5 mins!

Did you know that the very first blog, as we know it, was published in 1994 and it wasn’t even officially named as a “blog” then? Blogs indeed have a very interesting history!

Looking back from today’s age of social media, many people have speculated if blogs actually paved the way for social media and public-contributed content to grow as big as it is right now. In fact, while many social media sites and structures have evolved, blogging still remains a solid content sharing channel even to this day. There are a large number of readers who religiously follow blogs and lap up content for learning and entertainment. However, with diverse types of visual content, especially videos, becoming more and more popular, reaching the right audience for your content with just blogs becomes an inefficient strategy. 

A whopping 92% of internet users consume predominantly video content and that makes it one of the most important channels to engage your audience and make an impact.
