Re: Show HN: Create thousands of videos from a Google sheet
#2Google sheets is one simple example of a data source by which videos can be produced en mass using the Moovly API. Via the API videos can be produced in volume (e.g. personalisation) or on demand when data changes (e.g. ECommerce product review score or price changes). Try it, I’d be interested to hear of other applications or uses.

#3It looks neat product. Wonder which technology is used to render videos.

I made a proof of concept of a more narrow system with reveal.js and phamtomjs. Everything than you can run on a browser can be easylly automated to a video.

#5Really excited for this as a Real Estate Salesperson. I'm technically aware but not competent enough to figure this out on my own without spending a month or two trending it out - time I don't have. Made an inquiry already and waiting for an email from "Bob"

This seems like a bizarre comment for HN; first the job you hold seems unique on this particular news forum, and second, your statement about not understanding.
What do you mean by "trending this out"? What do you mean by "time I don't have"?
As a Real Estate Salesperson, how would this product fit into (I'm assuming) advertising and sales efforts?

The product's very first example is a real estate property listing. Surely it's obvious how someone pushing properties could benefit from generating such videos.

Not sure how it autocorrected to trending, but I meant to say "learn and figure it out" :-/
And yes the product fit is automated videos for my own listings and promotion of others in the industry (attracts buyers).

Yeah I spent same effort with reveal.js but I found it not very convenient. Assuming you have used phantomjs for capturing frames. I preferred screen capture since my requirement is to use sound and synchronize slide timings to length of sounds. I skipped extra step of capturing frame-by-frame and merging sound and pictures with separate process. Screen capture part made my pipeline semi-automated.
I was searching good approach since then but cannot find any solution elegant than Flash. It is dead tech but even today I cannot find real alternative to Flash in terms of asset management, scripting, exporting, IDE and motion graphics. It won't took more than an hour to create an simple application with Flash that consumes data dynamically and create video out of it.

That makes more sense. Thank you for replying.
I'm pretty blind to video ads at this point; how do you get videos in front of people that want what you have?
