Hook copy → portrait video → captions → trend-matched music

5-column Gab AI Deck recipe for vertical-video reels

Social Reel Pipeline drops you straight into the loop creators actually run: write a punchy hook, render a presenter or avatar, auto-caption, drop in trending audio, and resize for Reels and TikTok. Each step is a column you can re-prompt independently — kill the hook without losing the audio bed; swap the avatar without re-running captions.

How to use this recipe

  1. Click "Use this recipe" to clone the 5-column deck into your account.
  2. Write three hook variants in column 1 — first 1.5 seconds is the whole game; A/B them later.
  3. Pick the strongest hook; render it with Avatar (HeyGen) using a presenter style that suits the brand voice.
  4. Run Auto-Captions on the rendered video; verify timing and brand-name spellings.
  5. Match a trending audio bed in MiniMax Music 2.6; export the resized vertical version for Reels and TikTok upload.

Social Reel Pipeline FAQ

Can I record my own face instead of using an avatar?

Yes — drop your selfie video into the avatar column or replace it with a transcribe column to caption your own footage. The recipe is a layout, not a constraint.

How do I match real trending sounds?

MiniMax Music 2.6 produces an original bed — useful when you need IP-clean audio. For platform-trending tracks, capture the sound on TikTok and pair it in the editor; the deck handles the visual half.

What aspect ratio should I render?

9:16 (1080×1920) for Reels and TikTok; pin that in the avatar column label so every render uses the same canvas.

Does it write the captions automatically?

Yes — the auto-caption column transcribes the rendered audio and produces the on-screen text. You can edit timing and styling before export.

Can I save my brand presenter for reuse?

Save the deck as a recipe once you find the avatar settings that match your brand voice; every new reel clone starts already locked to the right look.

How long should each reel be?

15–30 seconds is the sweet spot for both Reels and TikTok. Spec the duration in column 1 so the hook, body, and payoff fit the cut.
