Video slideshow maker features
Combine photos and video clips
Upload your photos and video clips, then drag them into any order on a single timeline to create slideshows that flow smoothly. The editor blends still images and footage into one visual story, and you can animate any still photo with image-to-video.

Add music and AI voice-over narration
Choose a track from the stock music library or upload your own background music to set the mood. For narrated slideshows, the editor can generate an AI voiceover from your written script in seconds, so you never have to record a single line of audio.

Templates, transitions, and effects
Start with a range of slideshow video templates designed for weddings, birthdays, travel, or business, then customize the style with transitions and motion effects in one click. Turn a static deck into an animated presentation, adjust the pacing, and add premium title cards and text. The same templates can turn a property listing into a polished slideshow tour in minutes.
In your HeyGen account, open Brand, select Brand Templates, choose a template, and customize its scenes, visuals, music, and text in the editor.

Resize and export for any platform
Switch your slideshow between vertical, square, and widescreen formats to suit TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube, or a big-screen event. Once the edit looks right, export an HD MP4 that’s ready to post, email, or play at a gathering. Watermark removal is available with paid plans.

Narrate slideshows in 177 languages and dialects
Create one slideshow, then reach audiences worldwide. The AI video translator regenerates your voice-over and captions in 177 languages and dialects, so you can localize the video without rebuilding the entire project.


Gather photos and clips from the big day, set them to music, and create a memorable montage guests will want to watch. Share the link at the reception or send it to relatives who live far away.

Build a respectful tribute from a lifetime of photos. Add a gentle soundtrack and a spoken remembrance using the AI voice generator, then share it quickly at a service or privately with loved ones.

Bring together party photos, candid clips, and a favourite track to create a slideshow in minutes. Resize it for a phone screen or TV, then send it to the group chat that same day.

Turn a camera roll full of trip photos and your best video clips into a recap worth watching again. Choose a template, add your media and music, then post a polished travel video on social media.

Use slideshow videos to showcase a product launch, retail collection, or property listing without a film crew. Add a slide deck to the PPT-to-video workflow, include narration, then publish a sales-ready promotional video.

Create one slideshow, then publish videos with AI voiceover in every market you serve. Regenerate captions in each language, resize for Reels or Shorts, and reach followers worldwide without rebuilding the video each time.
How the video slideshow maker works
Create a slideshow video in four simple steps, transforming raw photos into a polished, share-ready video you can post anywhere.
Drag in your photos, video clips, and any music or audio you want to use in the slideshow.
Set the order, choose how long each photo stays on screen, and add transitions between slides with a click.
Choose a soundtrack, generate an AI voiceover from your script, and add titles or captions.
Resize for your platform, export an MP4 in HD, and post or send the slideshow. Free exports include the HeyGen watermark; paid plans let you remove it.
A video slideshow maker helps you create engaging slideshow videos from photos and video clips, complete with music, transitions, and customized timing. Upload your media, organize it in your preferred order, add a soundtrack or voice-over, and then export a finished MP4 to share.
Yes. Set the exact sequence by dragging slides, then choose how many seconds each photo or clip remains on screen. Nothing is locked, so you can fine-tune the pacing to ensure it matches the music or narration before exporting.
Upload your photos, then paste your script so the text-to-video engine builds narrated scenes around each image. Adjust the order and timing, add music, and let the slideshow handle the creation work so you can quickly assemble a finished video.
HeyGen combines photos, video clips, music, transitions, and AI voice-over in one slideshow workflow. You can also translate videos into 177 languages and dialects. Free exports include the HeyGen watermark, while paid plans let you remove it.
Yes. Creators report significant time savings once filming and editing are eliminated, making it easier to produce content regularly. Educator Anton Voroniuk saved 15.5 hours per week and reduced production costs by a factor of 40 after switching to HeyGen, while reaching more than one million students.
You can start creating with HeyGen's Free plan. Free exports include the HeyGen watermark; removing it requires a paid plan.
Both work. Pick the perfect track from the built-in library or upload your own song, then trim the audio track to length and balance it against your narration. The audio stays in sync as you reorder or retime your slides.
Yes. Add still photos and video clips to the same timeline and the editor blends them into one continuous slideshow. Mix portrait and landscape media freely, enhance it with transitions, and the export resizes cleanly to any aspect ratio you choose.
Select the gap between two slides and choose a transition such as a fade or slide, then apply it across the whole project or slide by slide. Add motion to still photos so they pan and zoom, giving you creative control over the style of each scene.
Export in vertical 9:16 for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts, square 1:1 for feed posts, or widescreen 16:9 for YouTube and presentations. Switch the aspect ratio at any point, and the slideshow will reframe automatically, so it looks professionally made without having to rebuild it.
Yes. Combine photos from across someone's life with a calm soundtrack and an optional spoken remembrance, then export a video to play at a service or share privately. You can access the project later and update it if more photos surface.
Consider the occasion. A five-minute slideshow usually holds 45 to 60 photos with a few short clips and three to five seconds per still, though you can adjust the length according to your story. Add or remove media anytime and the timing updates.
The editor runs in any browser, so you can create on a phone, tablet, or computer. Upload popular formats such as JPG, PNG, HEIC, and MP4, then export a finished MP4 along with an SRT caption file for accessibility.
No software download is required because HeyGen runs in your browser. Create a free account to save projects, edit them later, and export your video.
Yes. A variety of designer templates, smooth transitions, and AI voiceovers help your AI slideshow videos impress viewers and hold their attention. Match the look to your brand, and the finished result will feel professionally produced rather than hastily assembled.
Yes. Reopen the project in the AI video editor to replace photos, change the music, rewrite narration, or fix timing, then re-export. Saved versions keep the editing process quick, so updating a slideshow takes minutes instead of starting over.
Yes. If your photos or information are already organized in a report, brochure, or similar document, use PDF to video to create narrated scenes, then refine their timing, visuals, and music.
Yes. A product slideshow can organize your images, messaging, music, and narration into a promotional video. For campaign-ready formats and creative variations, you can also create AI video ads from your product information and assets.
Yes. Build your slideshow from photos, clips, text, music, and AI narration without filming yourself. If you want footage, graphics, captions, and other visuals generated around a script or idea, use the faceless video workflow.
