How to make a video built to be forwarded on WhatsApp
Upload the video and tell Vizard Agent it is going to be passed around in chats. Vizard Agent transcribes it, measures the screen bands and the audio, compares candidate frames to pick a cover that makes somebody curious, and builds the cover, the end card and the on-screen bands around it.
What do you type into Vizard Agent?
Say it is for forwarding rather than for posting. Vizard Agent builds differently for a chat: a deliberate cover frame, bands that read at thumbnail size, and an ending that gives somebody a reason to pass it on rather than a call to follow. Say what should make your audience curious, since only you know them.
Prompt
What does Vizard Agent actually do?
A video sent in a chat is a small thumbnail with a play button on it, so the cover frame decides whether anybody opens it. A frame chosen because it happened to be first is a person mid-blink; one chosen by comparing candidates is a face that makes somebody in a group chat press play. In the session behind this article it:
- Checked the uploaded video (1088x1920, 33.44 seconds), extracted and reviewed frames, and transcribed the speech.
- Read the full transcript to find what the video actually says, then checked the camera cut and the caption areas in the frame.
- Reviewed a full frame at native size, chose the typeface and checked the available sound effects.
- Measured the audio and the screen bands, analysed the bottom of the frame and generated a sound effect.
- Chose the best face for the cover, compared the candidate covers, then built the cover, the end card and the bands.
When does this not work well?
Nothing makes a video get forwarded. What an edit can do is remove the reasons somebody doesn't open it, which is a much smaller claim. Vizard Agent can't engineer sharing, a cover that oversells is the last one anybody opens, chat compression hurts fine detail and small text, and under a minute is the practical ceiling.
Common questions
Will this make people share it? Nobody can promise that. Vizard Agent removes reasons not to open it; the sharing is theirs.
Should it have a follow prompt? No. Vizard Agent builds an end card instead, since this is not arriving from a feed.
Will the text be readable? Yes. Vizard Agent measures the frame's bands and sizes the text against them.
