Social Media Video

What is Audiogram?

An audiogram is a video format that visualizes audio content as a static or animated image with a waveform visualization, used to share podcast clips, music, or spoken word content on social media platforms that require video.

Audiogram Explained

Audiograms solve the problem of distributing audio-only content (podcasts, radio clips, speeches) on social media platforms that prioritize video. A typical audiogram combines a background image or graphic, a waveform animation that reacts to the audio amplitude, and the audio content itself rendered as a video file. Optional captions make audiograms accessible and increase engagement for sound-off viewers. Audiograms are widely used by podcasters, musicians, and radio producers to create shareable visual assets from audio content without investing in full video production. The format is particularly effective on Twitter/X, LinkedIn, and Instagram where audio cannot be uploaded directly. BlitzReels' podcast clipping feature automatically generates audiogram-style video assets from audio clips.
