VIDEO CONTENT PREPARATION · Workflow idea

Turn a timely story into a video your editor can review.

Gather a limited set of trending technology stories, select those that fit your coverage, and prepare a concise summary with visual and video drafts. Keep the original reporting and asset sources alongside each draft so an editor can check facts, context, rights, and tone before approving any public content.

One useful outcome.

Helps a content team turn selected technology reporting into a starting point for short video storytelling.

  1. Gather a limited set of relevant stories

    Review recent public articles that fit the team’s chosen subjects and keep each title, date, and source available.

  2. Check whether a story belongs in the coverage

    Assess relevance to the intended audience and set aside duplicate, outdated, unclear, or unsupported reporting.

  3. Prepare a source-grounded summary

    Highlight the reported points without adding claims, and distinguish confirmed facts from interpretation or open questions.

  4. Create a visual and video draft

    Prepare proposed imagery, a short video, and a caption while retaining the sources and usage details for each asset.

  5. Approve the complete package before publication

    Have an editor verify accuracy, context, rights, disclosures, wording, destination, and audience before any post is published.

The handoff

A review-ready video package with the article source, summary, proposed visuals, and caption kept together.

Keep in mind

A summary may omit important context, and generated visuals can imply events that were never reported. Respect source access and image rights, verify every claim against the original reporting, label illustrative material appropriately, and require an editor to approve the exact video, caption, account, and audience before publication.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Choose story sources and coverage topics

Select permitted public sources, the intended subject area, and the audience the video work should serve.

Set story and asset review standards

Define how facts are checked, how illustrative visuals are identified, and what rights evidence is needed for each asset.

Keep drafts private and unpublished

Store stories and video materials in a review area and prevent public distribution until an editor approves the finished package.

Assign an editor and publication approver

Name who verifies sources and who approves the exact video, caption, account, and destination before publication.

Keep exploring

Review faceless video drafts

Prepare narrated videos with complementary visuals and keep the finished draft for human review before it is uploaded or published.
