Video Content Analyzer using Google Gemini 2.5 Pro - n8n Workflow

Content Creators and Marketers needing quick video descriptions.
Video Editors looking for fast, automated summaries of raw footage.
Developers and n8n users seeking advanced multimodal n8n templates.
AI enthusiasts exploring the capabilities of the Google Gemini 2.5 Pro model.

Manually reviewing lengthy video footage for summarization is time-consuming. This essential n8n workflow solves this problem by integrating a powerful multimodal AI into a simple intake process. By leveraging the advanced capabilities of the Google Gemini 2.5 Pro n8n node, users can upload a video via an accessible n8n trigger (a web form), and instantly receive a detailed text analysis describing the scenes, objects, and actions captured. This specific n8n workflow provides immense value by dramatically speeding up content description generation and streamlining asset management.

This automation initiates with the 'Start: Upload Your Video' n8n trigger, which is configured as a Form Trigger. Users access a dedicated URL to upload their video file and submit the form. Once submitted, the binary video data is passed directly to the next component. The key processing step is handled by the '1. Analyze Video with Gemini' n8n node. This n8n node is configured to use the powerful models/gemini-2.5-pro and is set to the analyze operation for video resources. It consumes the uploaded binary file and uses the AI's visual language model capabilities to interpret the video content. The final output of this n8n workflow is a detailed text summary generated by Gemini, providing deep insights into the video.
