We also discussed the role of AI in enhancing the efficiency of content creation and repurposing, as well as the importance of authenticity in video marketing. Key Takeaways 'Splintering' is the new 'Repurposing'. Atiba de Souza emphasizes the transformative power of intelligent content splintering. He explains that understanding your audience's needs and preferences is crucial in identifying which parts of a long-form video will resonate with them. By focusing on these key segments, agencies can create impactful short-form content that drives engagement and builds trust.

These tools can assist in formatting and structuring content for various platforms, ensuring that the repurposed content maintains its relevance and appeal across different channels.

This authenticity helps build a strong connection with the audience, fostering trust and credibility.
