Generate AI videos from scripts with DeepSeek, TTS, and Together.ai
Workflow name
Generate AI videos from scripts with DeepSeek, TTS, and Together.ai

๐Ÿ”ง Automated Video Generator (n8n Workflow)

๐Ÿš€ Features

  • End-to-End Video Creation from user idea or transcript

  • AI-Powered Scriptwriting using LLMs (e.g., DeepSeek via OpenRouter)

  • Voiceover Generation with customizable TTS voices

  • Image Scene Generation using generative models like together.ai

  • Clip Creation & Concatenation into a full video

  • Dynamic Caption Generation with styling options

  • Google Drive & Sheets Integration for asset storage and progress tracking

โš™๏ธ How It Works

User Submits Form with:

  • Main topic or transcript
  • Desired duration
  • TTS voice
  • Visual style (e.g., Pixar, Lego, Cyberpunk)
  • Image generation provider

AI generates a script: A catchy title, description, hook, full script, and CTA using a language model.

Text-to-Speech (TTS): The script is turned into audio using the selected voice, with timestamped captions generated.

Scene Segmentation: The script is split into 5โ€“6 second segments for visual storyboarding.

Image Prompt Creation: Each scene is converted into an image prompt in the selected style (e.g., "anime close-up of a racing car").

Image Generation: Prompts are sent to together.ai or fal.ai to generate scenes.

Clip Creation: Each image is turned into a short video clip (Ken Burns-style zoom) based on script timing.

Video Assembly:

  • All clips are concatenated into a single video.
  • Captions are overlaid using the earlier timestamps.
  • Final Output is uploaded to Google Drive, Telegram and links are saved in Google Sheets.

๐Ÿ›  Inital Setup

๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ 1. Set Up TTS Voice (Text-to-Speech)

Run your TTS server locally using Docker.

๐Ÿงฐ 2. Set Up NCA-Toolkit

The nca-toolkit appears to be a custom video/image processing backend used via HTTP APIs:

http://host.docker.internal:9090/v1/image/transform/video

http://host.docker.internal:9090/v1/video/concatenate

http://host.docker.internal:9090/v1/ffmpeg/compose

๐Ÿ”ง Steps:

Clone or build the nca-toolkit container (if it's a private tool):

Ensure it exposes port 9090.

It should support endpoints for:

Image to video (zoom effect)

Video concatenation

Audio + video merging

Caption overlay via FFmpeg

Run it locally with Docker:

docker run -d -p 9090:80 your-nca-toolkit-image

๐Ÿง  3. Set Up together.ai (Image Generation) (Optional You can use ChatGPT API Instead)

This handles image generation using models like FLUX.1-schnell.

๐Ÿ”ง Steps: Create an account at: https://www.together.ai

Generate your API key

4. Reproducing the Workflow from Scratch

  1. 1. Download the workflow JSON

    Use the JSON export at /data/workflows/6777/6777.json as the source template for this automation.

  2. 2. Import the template into n8n

    Open n8n, import the downloaded JSON, and review each node before activating the workflow.

  3. 3. Configure credentials and variables

    Replace placeholder credentials, API keys, webhook URLs, account IDs, and environment-specific values with your own settings.

  4. 4. Test with sample data

    Run the workflow manually or in a staging workspace, inspect node output, and confirm downstream systems receive the expected data.

  5. 5. Activate and monitor

    Enable the workflow only after testing, then monitor executions, errors, and rate limits during the first production runs.

5. General Notes & Resources

Review imported nodes carefully before activation. This catalog entry is intended to help you inspect the workflow structure, understand required services, and find related templates faster.

Node names, credentials, schedules, webhook paths, and external service limits may need adjustment for your workspace.
