What is a content marketing video maker?

A content marketing video maker is a tool that turns content you already have, such as posts, webinars, podcasts and reports, into videos. In Pictory you paste a link, upload a recording or paste text, then edit the scenes and export a video for each channel.

One of the content marketing tools that multiplies the rest. A strong post or webinar can feed a month of video content marketing: a main video, a few short clips and a quote clip for social. Pictory does the production; you choose what to keep.

For the full repurposing workflow, see AI content repurposing. Running ads rather than content? See the digital marketing video maker.

How it works

How to repurpose content into video

To repurpose content into video, paste a blog post link or text into Pictory, or upload a webinar or podcast recording. Review the scenes or the transcript, keep the parts you want, apply your brand kit, then export a main video and short clips for each channel.

  1. Add the content

    A post link, text, or a recording with the plus button.

  2. Keep the parts you want

    Edit the scenes or the transcript; filler words come out.

  3. Add your brand

    Apply the brand kit, a voice and captions.

  4. Export each size

    Download MP4s in 16:9, 9:16 and 1:1, or share a link.

Plan it

Build a content calendar around video

A video content marketing strategy can start from one source: a main video for the post or the webinar page, three short clips for social, and a quote clip from the strongest line. Plan the source first, then let the videos follow it through the month.
