Videos, shorts and Voiceovers are separate Products that share the Videos collection in Studio.

## Which to use

- [Videos and shorts](/videos): generated visuals over your narration; a Video is landscape by default and a short is a 30 or 60 second portrait video.
- [Voiceovers](/voiceovers): narration written and timed around documents and images you already have.
- [Episode video](/podcasts-and-episodes/video-templates): 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](/video-editor). For Videos and shorts, the visual style and orientation are fixed once generation starts.

Length presets are in [Duration](/video-creation-settings#duration). Length caps vary by plan, and custom watermarks need a Creator, Business, or Enterprise plan; see [plan limits](/account-and-billing/plans-and-pricing#plan-limits).

## Episode video

An Episode can render as video with one of six fixed [Podcast Templates](/podcasts-and-episodes/video-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](/podcasts-and-episodes/video-templates#create-a-magic-video-from-an-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](/video-editor#copy-a-video-to-a-podcast).
