Videos in the side menu is where long-form video is made. Arriving at the lane is already the decision to make one: the doors along the top each create a video and take you straight into it. The page reads top to bottom: start something, pick up where you left off, or take a slot off the deck.

​
The five ways in

Which door you come through decides what the work looks like — it sets the steps your video carries and what Goosy already knows when the conversation opens. Pressing one creates the video and lands you where that door starts: a conversation with Goosy, the research area, the video’s own workspace, or the recorder. Your workspace can change these doors. If yours reads differently from the table above, yours is right.

​
The rest of the lane

Pick up where you left off lists the videos already in production. Each one says where it stopped — Research, Script, Rendered, In review, Approved — in a plain sentence, with the verb for what comes next: Develop the idea, Work on the script, Review the cut, Finish shipping. On deck shows the video slots in your week that nothing has been started for. One click starts the slot. The full week lives on the schedule — this list is only the openings. Suggested topics are drawn from what your workspace usually makes. Take one and it becomes the opening line of a new video. If the pool is stale the section says so and offers to refresh it. At the foot, Browse every video opens the full library.

​
The steps a video moves through

A video has its own page — the conversation with Goosy down one side, the video’s parts as tiles beside it, and a row of steps across the top. The conversation stays with the video, so coming back to it days later picks up where you left it. You only get the steps your video needs. The door you came through decides the run — a video started from footage does not carry Script, and one that is never filmed does not carry Film. Every step stays open. Click back to any of them at any time to see or change earlier work. There is no locked ladder to walk in order.

​
How the video gets made

Filmed, fully animated, or an avatar presenter — this is the one choice that changes the shape of the work:
  • Filmed — you record the takes, so the run has a Film step.
  • Fully animated — built in the system, so there is nothing to record and no Film step.
  • Avatar presenter — a generated presenter delivers it, so there is no camera and no Film step.

​
The video’s own board

Beside the conversation, the video’s parts sit as tiles and fill in as you go:
  • Script — the script, outline or talking points.
  • Footage — your takes. Empty, it says No take yet. Film one, or bring footage you already have.
  • Scene plan — written once the script is settled.
  • Render — the built video.
Anything else you make while working on this video — images, documents, other boards — lands underneath them. Like any board, the switch at the top shows you Draft or Final.

​
Checking the script

On the Script step, Script check reads what you have written and scores it on four things in order: is it coherent, is it grounded, is it worth watching, does it convert. Any one of them can veto the script on its own, and a strong score elsewhere does not override a veto. It is coaching, and it blocks nothing — you can ignore it and carry on.

​
Recording

The recorder takes your takes one at a time. Each take transcribes itself as it lands, so the words are searchable and usable in the scene plan without you typing anything out. Footage you already have does not go through the recorder — drop the files into the conversation and Goosy orders them for you.

​
The scene plan

The scene plan is where the video is actually assembled: which take or clip plays when, what images and overlays sit on top, and what the voice and music do. Images you make on a board can be pulled in here, and Goosy can build most of the plan for you from the script.

​
Rendering, reviewing, shipping

Render builds the video. It runs in the background — leave the page and you will be told when it is done. Review plays the draft. Notes you leave are attached to the scene they are about, so a change request lands on the right part of the video rather than in a list. When the draft is right, you approve it. Approvals also collect in the review queue. Ship is where you confirm the destination, finish the title, description and the rest of the metadata, and send it. A video bound for a day and a platform gets its slot on the schedule.
