What it covers

What your people will learn.

  • Marketing

In about an hour you take one typed idea to a finished HeyGen video ad: a stock avatar that moves like a person, a script that sounds spoken, your brand on screen, and a file ready to upload.

Most first HeyGen videos never leave the editor. The draft sounds like a brochure, the avatar moves stiffly, the captions and backdrop look like every other account's, and credits run out on drafts before the ad is right.

This course works through one ad in order. You prompt Video Agent for a first draft and budget the month's credits, draft on the cheap avatar engine while you fix the words and the delivery, put your brand kit, captions and background in place, then render the final on the better engine and check the file before it goes live.

You walk away with one downloaded, branded 30-second ad, a credit budget per ad, and a workflow you can rerun for the next one.

Who it's for

Founders: want ad creative this week without booking a shoot or an editor.

Marketers: need a repeatable way to turn a campaign angle into a branded video.

Creators: want avatar videos that sound human and look like their own brand.
