Podcast to Video for turning one conversation into a content campaign
Start with the episode where the expertise and conversation already live. Create the full visual version, then pull out accurate, captioned clips for a broader campaign without losing the speakers' context.
Video generation uses credits. Review your estimate in ngram. MP4 downloads require Basic or higher.
How credits workTrusted by teams at
A short highlight from an existing episode
The source was a 31-second Nia and Tevita video episode. This 16-second excerpt keeps the original framing, recorded voices and music from seconds 9.920–25.890, with visible captions for the complete four-turn exchange.
How it works
Four steps from an existing episode to a reviewed video
Choose whether to make a new visual version from episode text or preserve the delivery in an existing video recording. Review one cut at a time.
Bring the episode source
Paste a transcript or approved show notes. To retain the original voices and footage from a video episode, attach the existing recording in Studio and state which exchange to keep.
Choose the exchange and context
Identify the complete question and answer, or specify the source time boundaries. Include enough surrounding context to preserve the speaker’s meaning.
Review the proposed edit
For a recording, check the excerpt boundaries and ask to preserve the original speech and visuals. For transcript text, review the proposed script, narration and visual direction before production.
Render one reviewed cut
Watch the full cut with sound and check its captions, framing and speaking turns. Request corrections when needed, then download the MP4 on a paid plan. Prepare another channel version as a separate edit.
Output controls
Smart defaults for episodes. Real knobs when the show needs them.
Transcript-bound scenes
Every scene is tied to a span of the transcript. Cut a tangent from the script and the matching visuals drop with it, no dragging clips on a timeline to keep the episode in sync.
Burned-in branded captions
Turn on captions whenever you want and adjust the font, position, and color. Select your Brand Kit when creating the video to use its styling. Use the subtitle export tool when you need a separate .srt file.
A visual per topic
AI imagery, lower-thirds, and pull-quote cards swap automatically when the conversation moves to a new subject. No static cover art held over forty minutes of talk.
Episode clips for the feed
Pick the strongest 30 to 90 second exchanges and export each as a standalone vertical clip, same captions, same brand, ready for the social calendar.
Speaker cards for two-host shows
Name and title cards label who is speaking when the transcript marks a turn, so an interview reads clearly even with the cover art gone.
Prepare each channel edit separately
Set the intended channel and aspect ratio for the podcast video, then review the crop, caption placement, and CTA before exporting one MP4. Prepare another channel version as a separate edit.
Translate the episode
Regenerate the spoken track in any ElevenLabs-supported language and re-render captions and on-screen text, so one episode reaches a second market.
Security and data handling
Talk to sales about security, access controls, and data handling for your team.
The rest of ngram
Podcast to video is the front door. These run the rest of the pipeline.
Captions
Burned-in branded captions on every cut, frame-aligned to the episode audio. The reason a podcast video earns watch time in a muted, autoplaying feed.
Learn moreAI Visuals
Scene-matched imagery generated from the transcript, so each topic in the episode gets its own visual treatment instead of the same cover art on a loop.
Learn moreBrand Kit
Logo, fonts and colors applied across every scene, so the episode video and your launch videos read as one show and one brand. Choose saved intro or outro slides for each video that needs them.
Learn moreConvert the finished podcast video
The podcast video leaves Studio as a single MP4. Use Video Converter afterward to make one MOV, WebM, or MKV file; it is a separate one-file, one-output step.
Learn moreScript Generation
Once the episode is transcribed, the agent tightens the talk into a publishable script: a hook on the open, a clear body, a closing CTA for the show.
Learn moreTranslation
Translate the transcript, regenerate the voiceover, and re-render captions, turning one English episode into a localized video for every key market.

See use caseOther converters
Coming from a different source? There's a converter for that.
Same transcribe-then-storyboard pipeline, different inputs. Podcast to video shares the brand kit, security model, and render stack with every other converter in the family.
Tools that pair with this converter
Clean up the episode. Edit the cut.
Polishing the source episode
Fix the recording before the storyboard runs
Background Noise from Audio
Strip room tone and remote-call hiss from the episode upload, so the transcript reads clean and the on-screen captions don't inherit the noise.
Open toolAudio to Text
Run the episode through AssemblyAI on its own when you want the transcript and show notes first, then drop it back in as the video script.
Open toolAI Voice Dubber
Re-voice a non-English episode into English, or the other way, before you turn it into a branded video for a new market's feed.
Open toolAudio to Video
Use an approved episode-notes or transcript-page URL with cover art to plan the podcast video. Direct audio upload is not available on that page yet.
Open toolEditing the rendered video
Take the rendered episode video further
Video Editor
Open the episode render on a real timeline: trim a segment, nudge a caption, or swap a scene before the cut goes out to the channel.
Open toolVideo Cutter
Trim by transcript, not timecode. Highlight the line you want and export that exchange as a standalone short from the full episode.
Open toolAdd Subtitles to Video
Burn or export .srt subtitles in any language for an episode cut headed to muted autoplay feeds or an international audience.
Open toolAdd Music to Video
Swap the bed under the talk track or fold the show's theme into the open, so the video carries the same audio identity as the podcast.
Open toolGenerating from scratch
If you don't have the recording yet
Text to Speech Video
No usable recording? Type the episode script and ngram generates the voiceover and the video together, identical pipeline downstream.
Open toolCreate a new discussion from an article
Starting from an article or topic instead of an existing episode? Give two fictional hosts a question and supported takeaways, then review their scripted exchange. Use this path to make a new show segment; keep episode repurposing on the transcript or recording workflow.
Open toolVideo Script Generator
Draft the episode outline and talking points before you record, so the audio you hand the converter already has structure and a CTA.
Open toolText to Video
Skip recording entirely for a bonus drop. Type the topic and ngram scripts, voices, and visualizes it, the same look as a podcast-to-video cut.
