How To Use AI Video Marketing Automator
AI Video Marketing Automator is easy to use. Here’s how to start making your AI-generated videos. For this demonstration, we’ll use a blog post template.
Step 1: Choose Your Template
Before you start creating your video, you’ll need to choose a template to work with.
For the Blog to Video template, you’ll need a URL from the blog post to generate the video’s information automatically.
To get started, click on the “Blog to Video” template.
Step 2: Add Your Information
For the blog post video, you’ll want to add your desired URL and choose the collection from which the images will be taken, then click “Create Video.”
Wait a few moments for the information to generate.
Step 3: View Your Rough Video Draft
After your upload is complete, AI Video Marketing Automator will display the information pulled from your blog post.
If you are happy with the video, you can leave the content as is, or you can manually change the generated information to customize your video.
There are a few ways to customize your video, and the next few steps will show you how to do that.
Step 4: Change the Voice, Style, Music, and Media of Your Video
In the left sidebar of AI Video Marketing Automator, you can change the voice, style, music, and media in the video. We will demonstrate how to change the video content in Step 5.
To change the voice, style, and music, click any icon on the left sidebar.
Clicking on each icon will bring up a prompt that allows you to change the voice, style, music bed, and media.
To change the voiceover, click on the voice icon. From here, you can choose the language, the accent, and the gender of the voice to suit your video. Adjust the pitch and speed of the voice for an ideal sound. You can also disable the voiceover if it isn’t needed in your video.
To change the appearance, click on the “Style” icon.
This will allow you to choose one color (this could be a primary brand color). It also allows you to choose a font that closely matches your brand.
When changing the music bed, you can select from the music already provided by AI Video Marketing Automator, turn the background music off, or upload your own MP3 file.
If you choose to upload your own music, make sure the song is royalty-free to avoid any legal issues or that you have purchased the rights to the song.
You can also search a library of royalty-free images and videos to add to your video in the “Media” section. You’ll also be able to find illustrations made in different styles that adjust the color based on the previously chosen Primary color.
Any edits you make will be autosaved as you work on your video.
Step 5: How To Change the Content of Your Video
For the Blog to Video template, the content in your video is automatically generated from the article you’ve written. However, you can adjust the content in your video in a few steps.
Start by locating the settings that allow you to change each block in your video. They appear as your cursor hovers over each block.
To change the block’s style, pattern, animation, color, and voice, click on the cog icon. You can also choose to enable or disable the subtitles and sound effects. Please note that the settings available for each type of block can differ.
If you want to add another block, you can click the “+” and choose from these types of blocks: Heading, Subheading, Text, Media, Call to Action (CTA), Quote, List, Callout, and Code.
Finally, if you want to rearrange the blocks in the video, click on the six-dot icon and drag the block to its new position.
When editing the content, hover over the blocks to directly edit the auto-generated content.
Some words/phrases can be shown and not spoken. To do this, you need to write a word/phrase in square brackets [...]. For example: write [Semrush] to show “Semrush” in subtitles but not pronounce it.
To change how a word/phrase is pronounced, you can write it like this [text]{text spelled phonetically}. For example: [Microsoft]{Micro soft}. "Microsoft" will appear in the subtitles, but it will be pronounced "Micro soft".
You can also add a pause in your text. Type "<0.5s>" to add a 0.5-second pause or "<5s>" to add a 5-second pause. These can be placed anywhere in the text. Pauses can be up to 10 seconds long.
Hover over the orange call to action (CTA) block to change the text and the logo that displays at the end.
Go to the “Tools” button in the upper right corner of the interface and choose “Add translations,” which will automatically translate your video into other languages.
Once you’ve altered your video to your liking, play your video a few times to make sure everything appears correctly.
Step 6: Download Your Video
Once you have perfected your video, you can download it using one credit from your plan. If you don’t have credits yet, you can easily purchase them upon downloading your video.
To download your video, click the blue button labeled “Export Video” The exported video will be available for download in three ratios - Landscape (16:9), Portrait (9:16), and Square (1:1).
You can also download videos in a batch. You can change Video Title, Voice, Style, and Music in a spreadsheet-like Batch editor. 
Blank Template
If your ideas don’t fit the provided templates, you can create your own using a blank template. The blank template gives you some brief instructions on how to add a new block to get started.
When you click on the “+ Add a video block” you will see some options for what kind of block to add.
AI Prompt
With the AI Prompt template, there's no need to rely on an existing blog post for video creation using the Blog to Video template or to have pre-written text when starting a video from scratch with the Blank Template.
The AI Prompt template simplifies video creation by generating a script and finding relevant images based on your provided topic.
Here are five simple steps to create a video using this template:
- Choose a topic: Start by entering the topic for your video. The AI will use it to generate your video script.
- Select the video length: Choose the length of your video. Shorter videos will be faster-paced, while longer videos will be more in-depth. Note that only users with paid subscriptions can create videos longer than one minute using this template.
- Pick your primary color: Select the primary color you want to use in your video. Each section and illustration will adjust based on the primary color you set up. You can choose from the available palette or enter your hex code.
- Choose an image collection: Select the style of illustrations that you want to use in your video. Alternatively, choose the Stock images option, and the AI will find suitable images from the stock.
- Create your video: Click the 'Create video' button after finalizing your setup options. The AI will generate your video, ready for your editing touch.
If you're unsure of which topic to choose, you can use the Idea Generator. Simply describe your products or company, and the AI will help you come up with ideas.
