Creatify Production Pipeline

Complete Creatify video production for local service businesses. Two API paths: URL-to-Video (images fill screen) and Avatar Lipsync (multi-scene presenter).

Phase 1: Client Setup & Scaffolding

  • Create client folder: config.json, images/, automation/, output/
  • Configure: business name, service, city, target audience, USP, benefits
  • Defaults: AvatarBubbleTemplate, TikTok platform, 9x16 aspect ratio, 30s length
  • Copy .env with CREATIFY_API_ID, CREATIFY_API_KEY, GEMINI_API_KEY

GATE: config.json valid, .env in place, npm dependencies installed

Phase 2: Image Hosting & Preparation

  • Push client images to GitHub repo (mmerlino23/video-pipeline-assets)
  • Generate permanent raw.githubusercontent.com URLs
  • For missing images: generate via TradeShots API, FLUX (fal.ai), or Nano Banana (Gemini)
  • Populate image URLs array in config.json

GATE: Minimum 3 hosted images with permanent URLs, all accessible and loading

Phase 3: Script Generation

  • Select from 15 script templates based on service type and marketing angle
  • Choose API path: URL-to-Video (before/after) or Avatar Lipsync (explainer)
  • Script structure: HOOK (3s), PROBLEM (5s), SOLUTION (10s), AUTHORITY (4s), CTA (8s)
  • For batch: generate scripts for all 15 templates or selected subset

GATE: Scripts complete with timing markers, referencing real business data from config.json

Phase 4: Video Generation & Rendering

  • Single video: create link -> generate AI scripts -> preview -> render final
  • Batch pipeline: loop through scripts with rate limiting and status tracking
  • Credit budget: ~8-12 credits per video on $99/mo plan (~13 videos/month)
  • Download rendered MP4s to output/ folder

GATE: All videos rendered, downloaded to output/, manifest.json updated

Phase 5: Branding & Delivery

  • Apply brand overlay via FFmpeg: logo + phone bar
  • Generate output manifest with file names, scripts, platform targets
  • Package pricing: Single ($250-500), SEO Batch 5 ($1,500-2,500), Full Assault 15/mo ($3,500-5,000)
