In this tutorial, we will walk you through the process of converting your audio podcast into square video clips and scheduling them to be posted on Twitter.

Step 1: Establish Connections

Go to the "Connections" page and ensure you have your audio podcast connection set up. If you're new to this, click "Audio Podcast," then "Add Connection." Provide a name and your podcast feed or Apple Podcast URL.
Add a Twitter connection. Choose "Twitter" from the list, name it, and click "Connect." Follow the prompts to authenticate.

Step 2: Create a Workflow

Navigate to the "Workflows" page and click "Create New Workflow."
Give it a name, such as "Podcast to Twitter - Square Snippets."
Select "Audio Podcast" as the input source and choose "Convert Audio to Video." Opt for snippets since Twitter limits video duration to two minutes and 20 seconds.
Choose "Twitter" as the output platform and click "Create."

Step 3: Configure Workflow Settings

In the workflow, go to "View Settings" and "View Episodes." Your podcast clips will automatically populate based on the timestamps provided during the upload.
Enable the progress bar for visual reference of clip duration.
Ensure the video format is set to square. You can select a template or create your own using provided specifications.

Step 4: Customize Video Appearance

The template includes a title, waveform, progress bar, and artwork. Customize these elements for each clip to engage your audience effectively.
Set a default sub-headline or customize it for each video.
Optionally, you can add intros or outros. Note that they must match the square video format.

Step 5: Set Default Snippet Duration

Consider setting the default snippet duration, e.g., 120 seconds (two minutes), for consistent content.

Step 6: Share Video to Twitter

Save your settings.
Click "Publish." Adjust the default description for each video, keeping it concise and including relevant hashtags.
Schedule the video for a future date and time. Aim to post one video per day for consistent engagement.

Step 7: Preview and Schedule Videos

After a few minutes, your videos will be scheduled. Hover over each clip to view its scheduled date and time.
Click the icon to preview the video in a new window.

Note that Twitter doesn't have company pages like LinkedIn. You'll post these videos to your existing Twitter profile.

By following these steps, you'll efficiently convert your audio podcast into engaging video clips for Twitter, maximizing your content's reach and impact.
