Video template features

Hundreds of ready video templates

Browse hundreds of layouts built for ads, explainers, social posts, and intros in the AI video generator library. Each arrives pre-timed with scenes, captions, and music, so you replace the sample text and details instead of building a video from an empty timeline.

An on-screen presenter reads your script

Most template galleries hand you graphics and expect you to supply footage. HeyGen templates include a lifelike on-screen presenter that speaks your script with natural lip-sync, so a written line becomes a talking video without a camera, a studio, or a single recording session.

Edit every scene from a script

Change the words and the video updates. HeyGen works like text to video, where you type a script and the scenes, timing, and voice adjust to match. Swap headlines, reorder scenes, and rewrite captions from one editor, with no frame-by-frame timeline work.

On-brand colors, fonts, and logo

Apply your palette, fonts, and logo across every scene in a few clicks, then save them in a Brand Kit so the next template opens already styled. Control backgrounds, music, and captions scene by scene, and set the whole look before you write a word.

One template in 175+ languages

Finish one video, then use the AI video translator to release it in 175+ languages with translated speech and matched lip movement. The same template, layout, and branding carry across every version, so a single build reaches global audiences without a separate shoot per market.

What you can create with video templates

Marketing and brand campaign videos

Agency filming and edits can stretch a campaign to weeks. Start from a template, drop in your script, and produce marketing videos for launches, ads, and landing pages, then resize each one for every channel.

Social and short-form video templates

Posting daily means constant reformatting. Pick a vertical or square template, paste your caption or script, and publish Reels, Shorts, and TikToks in minutes, each sized for the feed and captioned for silent viewing.

Product demo and explainer videos

Screen recordings alone rarely land. Use a product demo video template to frame features scene by scene with a narrator, on-screen text, and callouts, turning a release note into a clear walkthrough your buyers finish.

Training and onboarding videos

Reshooting training after every policy change is costly. Build modules from a template, and when a step changes, edit the script and regenerate instead of booking a studio, keeping onboarding current across a distributed team.

Promo and launch announcements

Hyping a launch usually waits on production. A promo video template lets you announce a product, event, or sale the same day, with countdowns, offer callouts, and a presenter delivering the message on brand.

Multilingual videos from one template

Global teams often rebuild each video per region. Create once from a template, then generate each market's version from that single source file, with speech translated and lip movement synced, so a launch ships everywhere the same day.

Video template FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)

What is a video template and how does it help me make videos?

A video template is a pre-built video with scenes, timing, captions, and music already set. You add your script and details, and the layout fills in around them, so you get a finished video without starting from an empty timeline.

Will using a video template make my video look generic?

No, because you supply the script, branding, footage, and voice. The template only sets structure and pacing, while your wording, colors, logo, and presenter make it yours. Two brands starting from the same layout finish with clearly different videos.

How do I turn a video template into a finished video?

Open a template, type or paste your script, and the scenes update automatically. Apply your brand colors and logo, pick a voice, then render. Most videos are export-ready in minutes, and you can edit the script and regenerate anytime.

How is HeyGen different from other video template tools?

Most template libraries give you graphics and leave you to supply footage. HeyGen turns a template into a talking video from your script, with a lifelike presenter, voice cloning, and one-click release in 175+ languages, so nothing needs filming.

Can video templates really speed up production at scale?

Yes. Teams reuse one template across many videos instead of rebuilding each, and customers report 62% faster video creation on average. Vision Creative Labs went from 1-2 videos a year to 50-60 per day, shown in their customer story.

Are HeyGen's video templates free, and what do paid plans add?

HeyGen has a free plan for making videos from templates, with paid plans starting at $29 a month for more length, exports, and premium features. Creators can start free, and teams scale up when they need more volume and brand controls.

Can I customize a video template with my own branding?

Yes. Change colors, fonts, backgrounds, music, and captions, and drop your logo onto every scene. Save these in a Brand Kit so future templates open already styled, keeping a consistent look across all your videos.

Can I use one video template in multiple languages?

Yes. Build the video once, then run it through the AI video translator to produce versions in 175+ languages with translated speech and matched lip movement. Your layout and branding stay identical across every language.

Can I make videos from a template with no editing skills?

Yes. There is no timeline to cut or keyframes to set. You edit by changing text and clicking through simple options, so anyone who can write a document can finish a polished video from a template.

What platforms and aspect ratios do the templates support?

Templates come in landscape 16:9, vertical 9:16, and square 1:1 for YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, and more. You can resize a project to another ratio and export an MP4 in HD or 4K for any channel.

Do I need to film anything or appear on camera myself?

No. A HeyGen template can use a lifelike presenter powered by Avatar V that delivers your script for you. You never set up a camera or studio, and you can create your own digital twin from a short clip if you want your own face.

Can I add my own voice or video clips to a template?

Yes. Upload your own footage and images into template scenes, and use voice cloning to narrate in your own voice, or pick from 300+ stock voices. You can mix your clips with template scenes in the same editor.
