Are you looking to streamline your YouTube video creation process? 🚀 As a business automation expert specializing in Bubble.io and Make.com, I’m here to show you a step-by-step guide to automate your YouTube video workflow. By following this guide, you can quickly create, edit, and upload videos, saving you tons of time and effort. Let’s dive right in!

Building Your Airtable Database

First things first, you’ll need an Airtable database to manage your video creation process. In this database, you’ll conduct keyword research to generate ideas for your videos. With 2000-4000 keywords at your disposal, you’ll never run out of content to create. 📝

Recording Videos Efficiently

To record your screen and solve specific problems, I recommend using Loom. Although Loom offers a free version, I personally use the paid version due to its extensive features. Recording tutorials for clients and your team can be a game-changer in simplifying complex tasks. 🎥

Storing and Managing Recordings

Once you’ve recorded your video, store the URL in your Airtable database. Each entry should include the recording URL, a video title, and a description. This allows you to easily manage and edit your videos later. 📦

Editing with Premiere Pro

Use Premiere Pro to edit your videos. Import your source file and make necessary cuts and blurs. To expedite the process, save common effects as templates. This way, you can edit a 10-minute video in just a few minutes. 🖥️

Encoding with Adobe Media Encoder

Once editing is complete, use Adobe Media Encoder CC to encode your video files. This step is resource-intensive, so it’s best to run it when you’re away from your computer. ⏳

Creating Thumbnails with Canva

For thumbnails, I use Canva. This free graphic design tool lets you create stunning visuals quickly. Upload your thumbnail to Airtable and check the box once the privacy blurring is applied. 🖼️

Automating Links with Make.com

With Make.com, create a unique Bitly link for each video. This link will be added to your video’s description, allowing you to track engagement metrics and understand where your traffic is coming from. 🔗

Scheduling and Uploading to YouTube

Schedule your video releases directly in Airtable. With a year’s worth of content planned out, you can upload multiple videos at once, copying titles, descriptions, and thumbnails seamlessly. 📅

Automating Social Media Posts

Lastly, automate your social media updates. Use Make.com to post your YouTube links and descriptions to Facebook and LinkedIn. This ensures your content reaches a wider audience without any extra effort. 📣

Voila! With these steps, you can fully automate your YouTube video creation process, from ideation to social media posting. 🌟 Got any questions or comments? Drop them below and let’s keep the conversation going!
