RedditBot - Video Generator

If you're like me and are addicted to short videos, have you ever wondered how on earth are there so many of them? Well, I tried to answer this question and, in short, you can automate the process. (it's very easy!)

RedditBot - is a service that allows the user to generate a video that reads out reddit post, relevant comments over a background video from the provided catalog. The data is inputed through a form and is then converted into a video project that can track the progress of creation and produces a Voiced Over video that is ready to be uploaded.

The idea is very simple:

1. Get data (urls, base clip) from the user
2. Get content (post text, screenshot and sound [text-to-speech])
3. Put everything together over a base clip (minecraft parkour)
4. Export, upload to Instagram/Tiktok
5. Wait for it to go viral and make $$$ on ads
