Choose a video type

Read before this

1. Create your first video

Common video types

• AI Motion Graphics: narrated explainers built from designed scenes and motion.
• AI Flow: an AI-generated visual flow for concepts and stories.
• Avatar: presenter-led videos using a selected or custom face and voice.
• Screencast: turns a product recording into a structured, polished walkthrough.
• Screencast + Avatar: combines product footage with a presenter.
• AI Slides: a slide-led video with a lighter generation path.

Match the type to the source

Choose motion graphics for designed, narrated explainers. Choose AI Flow when the story is better carried by an AI-generated visual sequence, or AI Slides when a simpler slide-led structure is enough. Choose a screencast path when showing the exact product interaction is the point. Choose an avatar when a visible presenter adds trust, instruction, or personality.

Availability can vary

The ordinary pre-start picker currently shows AI Motion Graphics, AI Flow, Avatar video, Screencast + Avatar, Screencast, and AI Slides. UGC video can be requested in agentic chat but is not shown in the ordinary picker. Use the choices visible in your flow as the current source of truth because entry point and source material can still affect availability.

Before generating

• Confirm the type matches the desired output.
• Attach any recording, presenter image, or brand source required by that type.
• Check the script and scene plan in PRO for high-stakes work.
• Review the displayed credit estimate and model choice before proceeding.

A safe first pass

1. Open Home and add the prompt and approved sources.
2. Choose the relevant creation setting and leave unrelated controls at their defaults.
3. Review the mode, duration, aspect ratio, voice, models, and displayed credit estimate.
4. Create a representative first version and verify the setting had the intended visible effect.

If the result is not available

If the named choice is missing or disabled, follow the plan message and the current options shown in Studio. Return to Home, reopen the source, or select a compatible video type; contact Support only when an expected eligible control remains unavailable.

Keep going

• Choose between YOLO and PRO — Choose the right approval mode for a video creation run.
• Record your screen and create a polished screencast — Use the Screen Recorder, browser permissions, recording tips, review, and editor handoff.
• Choose a voice and avatar — Select narration, language, presenter, and custom identity options for a video.
