Marketing Agents
Schedule
Marketing Video runs only when you start something. It has no routine, it does not post on a timetable, and it never starts the next step on its own.
What Starts Work
| What you do | What happens |
|---|---|
| Create Video with the script writer on | The script is written; the card is posted if Slack is set up |
| Create Video with the storyboard option on | The script is written and then split into shots |
| Generate Script or Regenerate Script | The script is rewritten from your brief |
| Plan Storyboard or Regenerate Storyboard | The shot list is rebuilt from the script; on a project that already has shots, you confirm first and every existing shot, still and clip is then discarded |
| Generate Image on a shot | One still is made for that shot |
| Render Video on a shot | That shot's still is turned into a clip |
| Generate Voice-Over | A spoken version of the script is made |
| Assemble Video | The rendered clips are joined into one video |
| Approve, Reject, Publish | The project's status changes; nothing else runs |
Waiting on Steps
Scripts and storyboards come back quickly. Making stills and rendering clips take longer, and clips are rendered one shot at a time, so a full short video takes several rounds of clicking and waiting. The project page shows what has finished. You do not need to watch it; the buttons for the next step become available when the previous one is done.
Not Part of Campaign Plans
When Marketing Strategist builds a campaign plan, it does not start video projects. Video projects are started by you from the Video page.
