About this episode

The episode discusses the process of creating viral clips from long-form content and the experience of going viral on social media.

One of my clips went viral on TikTok and pulled in 47,000 views, 200+ comments, and hundreds of new followers. I share how I went viral, what it felt like, and what I've learned. I also break down my process for farming short clips from long-form content and publishing them across all of the social media platforms: TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, Facebook, and X. This is part of an ongoing series documenting how I'm building a channel around consciousness, awareness, and philosophy while working a full-time job, being a father, and figuring it out as I go. What I cover: -How I identify clip-worthy moments while editing long-form content -The tools I use (Wondershare Filmora + CapCut) -How I format, caption, and export clips for each platform -My scheduling system — 3 clips a day, staggered times -How I use AI as a thinking tool, not a decision maker -What going viral actually felt like in real time If you're a small creator trying to grow without a big team or budget, this one's for you. 📺 Watch the first video in this playlist: https://youtu.be/CXO8CbpEQqo?si=tBLKfEzwPcVzd28_ 🎙️ Minds Eye Morning Show!
