GoonAutomating Video Creation with Make.com, JSON2Video, Airtable, and OpenAI
Automating video creation can save time and effort, and with the right tools, it can be done efficiently. In this article, we will explore how to automate video creation using Make.com, JSON2Video, Airtable, and OpenAI. We will cover the steps involved in setting up the automation, from importing the blueprint to uploading the final video to YouTube.
Introduction to the Automation Blueprint
The automation blueprint is available on the Skool community website, and it provides a comprehensive guide on how to automate video creation. The blueprint includes a step-by-step tutorial on how to import the Airtable base, configure the OpenAI Chat Completion module, and set up the modules in Make.com to generate dynamic short videos with just one click.

Installing the Blueprint and Setting up Airtable
To start the automation, we need to install the blueprint and set up Airtable. First, we create a new scenario in Make.com and import the blueprint. Then, we copy the base for the Airtable and set up the columns for our video details. The columns include the short title, video style, language, voice, number of scenes, voice model, image model, and final video.

Configuring Airtable Columns
The Airtable columns are crucial in determining the video details. The short title column is a single line text field, while the video style column is a single select. We can choose from various styles, such as cartoon, photorealistic, or animated. The language column is also a single select, and we can choose from various languages, including English, Spanish, or French.
Setting up Modules in Make.com
After setting up Airtable, we need to set up the modules in Make.com. The first module is the Airtable connect module, where we connect our Airtable account using our token or key. We then select the base and table we created earlier and choose the appropriate settings.

Configuring OpenAI Chat Completion Module
The next module is the OpenAI Chat Completion module, where we use the chat completion feature and select the GPT-40 mini model. We then set up the prompt and response format to JSON object and enable the parse JSON response option.

JSON Parsing and Creating a Custom Data Structure
After configuring the OpenAI Chat Completion module, we need to parse the JSON response and create a custom data structure. We use the JSON parsing module to parse the JSON response and create a custom data structure that includes the video title, description, and keywords.

Waiting for the Video to Render and Uploading to YouTube
After creating the custom data structure, we need to wait for the video to render and upload it to YouTube. We use the wait for a movie to render module from JSON2Video to wait for the video to render, and then we use the HTTP request module to retrieve the generated video file.

Updating the Record in Airtable
After uploading the video to YouTube, we need to update the record in Airtable to indicate that the video has been posted to YouTube. We use the update record module to update the record and store the YouTube URL.

Testing the Automation
Finally, we test the automation by adding a new record in Airtable and running the scenario in Make.com. We can see the video being generated and uploaded to YouTube, and the record in Airtable being updated.
Conclusion
