I ship a lot of short video. Product highlights, policy explainers, the occasional dry ortho joke. The work that used to need an editor, a motion designer, and a voice booth now asks three things of me: a logo, a concept, and a folder to drop them in. Everything after that is a hand-off. I had a lot of questions after my last post on how I use Blotato to post social media to give a little more detail on my video flow.
What follows is the whole workflow, start to finish with a longer video. It runs the same way every time, and that is the point. A repeatable pipeline beats a burst of inspiration you cannot reproduce next week. Here is how a branded reel actually gets made.
Remember that if you are a a paid subscriber, in addition to articles like this with end to end “Techy Flows”, the archive, and CMS API embedded artifacts, you have access to the entire Techy Surgeon Clubhouse with interactive versions of articles, downloadable skills from the agentic clinic, and the policy radar. Hope you enjoy!
And if you don’t want to make these yourself, but just want help one on one, you can reach out here or email christian@techysurgeon.com.
Just for fun one more. This one I actually created in Codex (ChatGPT) with Higgsfield MCP and specified using seedance 2.5, same workflow as below.
