I am personally SOOO excited about this latest update by NotebookLM and I wanted to share this because it's something I think many of you may also be excited about.
NotebookLM has added the ability to turn your source material into SHORT-FORM vertical videos ... perfect for Reels, Shorts, and quick educational content.
And yesโฆ itโs available inside NotebookLMโs Studio tools with standard access, although daily generation limits may apply.
NotebookLMโs Video Overviews are designed to transform your uploaded sources into clear, engaging visual summaries.
I tested it by creating this video, attached below, explaining the reality behind Anthropicโs new Claude Fable 5 model... and Iโm honestly impressed with what NotebookLM produced from the source materia and my relatively basic prompt instructionsl. Anthropic describes Fable 5 as a model built for ambitious, long-running projects and agent-based work.
This update by NotebookLM opens up so many possibilities for turning your:
โจ lessons
โจ research
โจ blog posts
โจ lead magnets
โจ workshop material
โฆinto quick, shareable video content without starting from scratch.
Take a look at the example below!
Have you tried it out yet? What are your thoughts? I can see this making faceless content for some creators much easier.๐
