Choose a video product
Pick the right video product for your project.
Videos, shorts and Voiceovers are separate Products that share the Videos collection in Studio.
Which to use
- Videos and shorts: generated visuals over your narration; a Video is landscape by default and a short is a 30 or 60 second portrait video.
- Voiceovers: narration written and timed around documents and images you already have.
- Episode video: a video version of a podcast Episode, not a separate Product.
Product differences
| Shorts | Videos | Voiceovers | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Visuals | Generated | Generated | Your uploaded files |
| You provide | A prompt, source, finished script, or your recording | A prompt, source, finished script, or your recording | Sources and optional direction (no uploaded script) |
| Default orientation | Portrait | Landscape | Landscape |
| Visual style | Your choice | Your choice | None |
| Background music | Generated, on by default | None at creation, add in the editor | Add in the editor |
| Brand Kit | Chosen at creation | Chosen at creation | Not supported |
| Watermark | Added at creation | Added at creation | Added in the editor |
| Captions | Style default | Style default | Chosen at creation, off by default |
All three take up to four hosts, one per paragraph; a short starts with one. Generated scripts assign them, and you reassign paragraphs in the video editor. For Videos and shorts, the visual style and orientation are fixed once generation starts.
Length presets are in Duration. Length caps vary by plan, and custom watermarks need a Creator, Business, or Enterprise plan; see plan limits.
Episode video
An Episode can render as video with one of six fixed Podcast Templates, and nothing is generated. An Episode that once used generated visuals now has that video in your Videos library, titled after the Episode.
For generated visuals over an Episode’s narration, create a Video from the Episode. It reuses the Episode’s narration and music without resynthesizing audio, and the two stay independently editable. To go the other way, copy a video to a Podcast.
