About this tool
Plan a video series across weeks: pick publish days, set a cadence, and map topics and formats onto dated episode slots.
Video Series Content Calendar turns a start date, a weekly cadence and a list of topics into dated episode slots, assigning each one a rotating format so a series is fully planned before the first shoot. Publish days are chosen by weekday, dates are calculated in UTC so they never drift with your timezone, and any slot without a topic is flagged as blank rather than quietly filled. Useful for creators, agencies and in-house teams running a fixed-length series across several weeks.

Every episode gets an actual calendar date, including month and year rollovers.
Slots without a topic are marked so you know exactly how many ideas are still missing.
Scheduling runs in UTC, so a publish day never shifts by one when you travel.
Pick the highest cadence you can sustain for the entire run — for most solo creators that is one video a week, and for a team two. Consistency matters more than volume: a weekly slot viewers can predict beats a burst of daily uploads followed by a three-week gap.
Six to twelve episodes is a common range: long enough to build a habit with viewers, short enough to script and shoot in one or two batches. Decide the number before you start so you can batch-record and write a consistent series intro.
There is no universal best day — check your own analytics for when your existing audience is active, then publish a few hours before that peak so the video is indexed and recommended when they arrive. The bigger win is publishing on the same day every week rather than picking the theoretically perfect one.
No. Rotating formats — a tutorial, then a Q&A, then a case study — keeps a series watchable and lets you cover the same topic from angles that suit different viewers. Keep the intro, thumbnail style and title pattern consistent instead; that is what signals the videos belong together.
