Track Video Stages and YouTube Links

Follow each planned video in FoxCue from planned to scripting, production, ready to publish and published, and add the YouTube link once it's live.

Every video you choose in a silo moves through production stages as you work: Planned, Scripting, Production, Ready to publish, Published and Archived. When the video is live on YouTube, you add its link in the silo's Published tab.

How stages update

Stages update as you save work:

You do thisStage becomes
Create a scriptScripting
Mark the script ready, or save recorded footageProduction
Save a completed videoReady to publish
Add the YouTube link in PublishedPublished

To record work done elsewhere, open the video, choose Video Actions → Change Stage, pick a Stage and click Save Stage. You can't mark a video published until it has a YouTube link.

  1. Upload the finished video to YouTube yourself. FoxCue doesn't publish to YouTube.
  2. In the silo, open Published and paste the YouTube watch, Shorts or short link.
  3. If YouTube is connected, FoxCue checks the video against your channel.

Frequently asked questions

Does rendering a video mark it published?

No. A completed render makes it Ready to publish. Only adding the YouTube link marks it published.
