Create a single verified source
Get the text of the video and check the names, numbers, terms and quotes with the recording. If you start with a file, it will help instructions for extracting text from video. Check separately the data that is shown on the screen, but not spoken aloud.
Save the approved version of the text and a list of important facts. Leave next to the quotes temporary labels for reconciliation with the original. Record the limitations: to what case does the example relate and under what conditions the conclusion is correct.
All derivative materials must rely on this version. If the author has corrected the number, amend the article, posts and letter. So the same example will not get different indicators in different channels.
Make a basic article
Choose one question to which the article will give a full answer. Restrike the speech under it: add definitions, logical transitions and output. Remove the deviations, and phrases like “this is visible on the slide” replace with an explanation or a suitable illustration.
A conditional example. From the video about the preparation for the interview, you can make an article “How to prepare for an interview with an expert”. Its structure: to define the goal, to study the topic, to draw up questions and to check the record. The reader must be able to prepare without the obligatory view of the video.
Save a link to an available original for those who need a demonstration or a full conversation. For the original plan, use the theses, and check the details by the full text: transcript, theses and sammari solve different tasks.
Video and transcription
Arguments, examples, quotes and context.
Proven facts
The names, numbers and conclusions are consistent with the original.
Article
Full answer to one question.
Post
One independent thought.
A short benefit and one action.
Highlight posts
Each post build around a finished thought: observation, error, step or example. Add enough context to make the text clear separately from the article. A chance paragraph from the middle of a long material often requires explanation.
In a conditional example with an interview, one post can explain why you should ask one question at a time: it is easier for the interlocutor to understand what to answer. Another is to offer to record and listen to a short test before talking. These are different useful tasks, not two identical announcements of the article.
Keep the author's voice and reservations. The wording “in our case helped” should not turn into a promise of results for everyone. If you are shortening the quote, check that its meaning and conditions have not changed.
Collect email newsletter
Explain why the topic is important to the recipient now, give a short practical thought and offer one next step. Depending on the task, lead to a full article or original video. The subject of the letter and the text of the link should describe this step.
Check the recording before the interview
Take a short sample and listen to it: whether both participants can be heard, whether there is any interference, whether the sound is missing. This check will help to notice the problem before the main conversation.
Next step: Open a full checklist of preparation for the interview.
In this letter, the last sentence will be a reference to the available material. Do not transfer the SEO title to the subject of the letter automatically: the reader meets the search result and the letter in different circumstances. Check if the promise of the subject is consistent with the content of the letter.
Organize production
Keep a common table: source, main idea, format, channel, verification status and material reference. Appoint the person responsible for the facts. If the original record is specified, he notes which ready-made texts need to be reviewed.
The video remains the primary source, the transcript is the working base, the article is a detailed answer, the post is a separate thought, the letter is useful and an invitation to action. Assign the status “ready” after the editorial check, and not immediately after receiving the transcription.
| Source | Main Thought | Format | The Channel | Checking | Link |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Video about the interview | How to Prepare for a Conversation | Article | Blog | Check the completeness of the steps | Example of structure |
| The same video | Ask one question at a time | Post | Social networks | Check the meaning with the source | Example of thought |
| The same video | Check the sound before the interview | Letter | Check the promise and reference | Example of a letter |

Frequently asked questions
Can you just cut the transcript?
The reduction will remove the repetitions, but in itself will not create a suitable structure. Determine the reader's task, rearrange the fragments and add transitions. For the post, choose one completed thought, and for writing - a useful occasion and a clear action.
What to create first?
It is usually convenient to start with a proven base material: transcriptions and articles that agree on facts and conclusions. Then prepare short formats. If publications are made by different editors, first record the general facts and those responsible for their changes.
How to avoid takes?
Change the task of the material, not just its length. The article explains the process in detail, the post analyzes a separate error or example, the letter helps to apply one thought and move on to the next step. General facts can be repeated, but each material must give its own benefit.
Does the service create posts automatically?
Transkribator provides text transcription, summary, abstracts and sammari. They can be used to produce publications. Choosing a topic, adapting to the audience, checking quotes and finalizing the post perform as a separate editorial task.
