This is a screening assignment for our developer position. The task involves building an automated pipeline that converts blog posts from our knowledge hub into engaging video content using AI technologies and automation workflows.
Content repurposing is crucial for modern digital marketing, but manually converting blog posts into videos is time-consuming and resource-intensive. This assignment focuses on building an automated system that can transform written content into professional video presentations while maintaining the educational value and brand consistency.
Build an automated pipeline using Python that converts blog posts from Alphanome's knowledge hub into video content. The system should handle text processing, script generation, visual asset creation, and final video composition with appropriate transitions and branding.
- Access to Alphanome's knowledge hub blog posts at https://www.alphanome.ai/knowledgehub
- Focus on AI technology or finance related content
- Consider both technical and narrative elements of the content
- Extract and process blog post content programmatically
- Generate optimized video scripts from blog content
- Create dynamic visual assets (charts, graphs, text overlays)
- Implement text-to-speech with natural-sounding voices
- Automate video composition with transitions
- Apply consistent branding elements
- Generate appropriate video thumbnails
- Use Python as the primary language
- Implement content extraction and processing pipeline
- Integrate with text-to-speech APIs
- Use video composition libraries (e.g., MoviePy, OpenCV)
- Create automated visual asset generation
- Include progress monitoring and error handling
- Build modular components for each stage of the pipeline
- Write maintainable, documented code
- Include comprehensive type hints
- Follow Python PEP 8 style guidelines
- Implement proper logging and monitoring
- Document each pipeline component
- Include unit tests for critical components
- Code quality and organization
- Content processing accuracy
- Pipeline automation effectiveness
- Error handling and recovery
- Resource management
- Testing coverage
- Visual appeal and professionalism
- Audio clarity and synchronization
- Transition smoothness
- Branding consistency
