What is an event recap video?

An event recap video turns hours of panels, talks and audience questions into a few short pieces people will actually watch. The useful version keeps each speaker’s point intact, so a clip starts at the question and ends on the answer.

The recording is usually the hard part to get through. Working from a timestamped transcript means the moments can be chosen by what was said, then cut at the exact second, instead of scrubbing through the video by hand.

Full recording → transcript → best moments → captioned clips → posts

Event recap video maker FAQs

How long can the recording be?

Full panels and talks work, including recordings over an hour. Okou reads the transcript section by section, so long recordings are fine. Very large files are easier to share as a Google Drive or YouTube link.

Does it work with several speakers?

Yes. Ask for clips by speaker and Okou attributes each answer from the transcript and its context. Check the names on the first pass, especially for audience questions.

Can it match our brand?

Yes. Share your logo, colors and an example clip, and Okou applies the same title card, captions and end card to every clip.

Will it post the clips for me?

No. Okou prepares the clips, captions and post drafts. You review them, confirm guest permissions and decide what gets published.

Is this tool free to use?

You can explore this page and its illustrative example for free. Editing runs in your signed-in Okou account and uses available credits.

Okou also has the podcast clip maker, the zoom recording editor and the video transcript generator.
