How We Create AI Videos Using Heygen

Overview

What Heygen Is

Heygen is an AI video generator that lets anyone turn scripts into lifelike avatar videos in minutes. You can choose from a library of presenters or upload your own, then generate entire videos without a camera crew or studio setup.

We use Heygen for social clips, explainer videos, and updates featuring our avatars — saving hours of production time each week.

Tips for Better AI Videos

• Start with short scripts (under 60 seconds) to test pacing and tone.
• Use the “upload background” feature to match your brand or workspace.
• Pair Heygen with ElevenLabs for high-quality AI voiceovers.
• Experiment with lighting and motion styles for different moods.

The combination of Heygen + ElevenLabs is powerful — you can generate your own voice or a new one, then sync it seamlessly to your avatar.
