🚀 What this workflow does

This n8n workflow turns Telegram into a full AI short-form video studio.

Watch the video

🎥 DEMO : https://youtu.be/OI_oJ_2F1O0

Users send a message (or image) to a Telegram bot, choose a video style, and the workflow automatically:

1.	Generates a high-quality AI video prompt
2.	Creates a short vertical video using Veo, Sora, or Seedance
3.	Uploads the finished video to YouTube Shorts
4.	Supports video extensions, model selection, and credit checks
5.	Manages everything with session storage and status polling

No manual prompt engineering, no dashboard hopping — everything happens inside Telegram.

🎬 Supported video styles

Users can control video style using simple Telegram commands:

•	/general – Creative short-form videos
•	/lost – Found footage / abandoned mystery videos
•	/3d – 3D talking objects & explainers
•	/story – Emotional short stories (multi-scene)

If no command is used, the workflow intelligently defaults to general creative mode.
