## Asset Taxonomy

One filming session can produce multiple content types:

**Hero Content** (1): Long-form video (3-10 minutes) for YouTube

**Short-Form Clips** (5-7): 15-60 second clips for TikTok, Reels, Shorts

**Stories** (3-5): Behind-the-scenes snippets for Instagram/Facebook Stories

**Carousel Posts** (2-3): Multi-image posts with key takeaways

**Quote Graphics** (3-5): Text-based graphics with key quotes or insights

**Blog Post** (1): Written article expanding on the video topic

**Email Newsletter** (1): Summary with link to full content

Total: 15-25 pieces of content from one filming session.

Distribution Calendar

Spread your content across 30 days:

**Week 1**: Release hero content on YouTube + 2 short-form clips on TikTok/Reels

**Week 2**: Post 2 more short-form clips + 1 carousel post + daily Stories

**Week 3**: Post remaining short-form clips + quote graphics + blog post

**Week 4**: Email newsletter + reshare top-performing content

This ensures consistent posting without constant filming.

Automation Tools

Streamline your repurposing workflow:

**Descript**: Transcribe video and create clips automatically

**Canva**: Design quote graphics and carousel posts with templates

**Buffer/Hootsuite**: Schedule posts across multiple platforms

**Repurpose.io**: Automatically distribute content to multiple platforms
