AI Video News Production Guide: KOTRA's Methodology for AI Content Creation

AI Video News Production: The Starting Point of Content Innovation

KOTRA DX Innovation Lab Project 25 is an AI-based automated video news production system. It converts overseas market updates, trade news, and industry analysis reports from text manuscripts into video content with minimal manual intervention. A process that previously required three to five days by professional producers and editors can now be completed in two to three hours, significantly improving how quickly KOTRA can distribute market intelligence.

AI Video Production Pipeline

The AI video news workflow is organized as a five-stage automated pipeline. Manuscript analysis, script generation, AI voice synthesis, avatar and video generation, and automated editing with subtitles are linked in sequence, allowing a finished video to be produced from manuscript input alone.

Manuscript Analysis
GPT-based NLP identifies key messages, visual elements, and tone from the source text.
Script Generation
The system converts the manuscript into a video-ready structure with intro, body, outro, and timing allocation.
AI Voice Synthesis
A TTS engine generates natural narration across 12 languages with multiple speaker options.
Avatar and Video Creation
AI avatar anchors are generated while related images, charts, and B-roll are matched automatically.
Automated Editing and Subtitles
The final system edits the video, produces multilingual subtitles, and applies brand templates.

Core AI Technologies in Detail

The platform is built around three core technology groups: TTS, avatar generation, and automated editing algorithms. Each capability has been tuned for trade and economic content so that terminology, numerical expression, and presentation quality remain consistent with KOTRA branding standards.

Supported Content Types

The AI video news system supports a wide range of trade and economic content formats. Overseas market briefings, industry analysis reports, trade statistics explainers, exporter success stories, and overseas trade office updates can all be converted into automated video output.

01
Overseas Market Trend Briefings
Local market updates from 127 trade offices can be converted into one-to-three-minute video briefings. Weekly trends, policy changes, and sector issues are visualized for rapid business use.
02
Industry Analysis Report Videos
KOTRA research reports can be turned into five-to-ten-minute explainer videos. Data charts and infographics are generated automatically to improve readability.
03
Trade Statistics Explainers
Import-export statistics can be presented through dynamic chart animation and narration, making the format suitable for monthly and quarterly recurring content.
04
Exporter Success Stories
Export success cases can be structured into interview-style videos. AI avatars serve as narrators while company information is visualized on screen.

Application to Bangladesh-Focused Content

The Dhaka Trade Office uses the AI video news system to produce video content covering Bangladesh market developments, changes in the investment climate, and industry analysis. Bengali and English TTS can be deployed together, making it possible to create promotional videos for local buyers and Bangladesh market briefings for Korean companies in parallel. Typical subjects include trends in the Bangladesh RMG sector, guidance on economic zone investment, and infrastructure development updates.
