I Built a Video Factory That Runs on a Raspberry Pi
No camera. No microphone. No editing skills. Just Python and ffmpeg.
The result? 1080p videos with professional slides, captions, and branding — fully automated.
How It Works
Step 1: AI researches trending topics (Bing API)
Step 2: AI writes a video script (8-12 slides)
Step 3: Pillow generates professional slide images
Step 4: FFmpeg assembles everything into MP4
Step 5: Output: YouTube/TikTok-ready video + SRT captions
That's it. One command. Complete video.
