Step 1: Set up for scale: Brand Kit & Sub-Workspaces

Ang mahuhusay na team ay hindi laging nagsisimula sa wala—gumagawa sila ng mga sistemang kayang mag-scale.

With HeyGen, it’s easy to keep your clients’ videos on-brand by setting up a Brand Kit for each, making their fonts, colors, logos and assets easily available within HeyGen’s AI Studio editor.

Just paste in your client’s URL to get started, or upload your brand elements manually.

In a hurry? No problem. You can always come back and finish this step later.

Certified HeyGen para sa Agency Partners na mga miyembro ng programa ay mayroon ding access sa Sub-Workspaces, na hiwalay na mga workspace sa loob ng isang HeyGen account na nagbibigay-daan sa mas mahusay na pamamahala ng team at mga proyekto. Bawat Sub-Workspace ay may sarili nitong mga miyembro, pahintulot, at mga setting, na nagbibigay-daan sa iyong team na kontrolin ang access, billing, at paggamit ng API para sa iba’t ibang kliyente at kampanya.

Pro Tip

Kapag kumpleto na ang Brand Kit mo sa mga kulay ng brand mo, madali mo nang maia-update ang karamihan sa HeyGen Templates para tumugma. Palitan lang ng mga kulay mo para manatiling on-brand ang bawat video, o i-click ang Shuffle Colors button para awtomatikong palitan ng HeyGen ang mga ito.


Hakbang 2: Isulat ang Iyong Script

The script is the backbone of a great video. Here’s how to make it count:

  • Magsimula sa isang malakas na hook (pinakamahalaga ang unang 3–5 segundo)
  • End with a clear CTA (call to action)
  • Panatilihing simple, direkta, at walang jargon

Pro Tip: Gusto mong bumilis ang proseso? Tingnan ang sumusunod na pahina ng Best Practices para sa paggamit ng mga tool tulad ng ChatGPT sa pagsulat ng iyong script.

Still not sure where to begin? Here are a few sample outlines for inspiration.

If you’re following along in HeyGen, these scripts are already built into your template.

Mga Pinakamainam na Paraan: Mas Mabilis at Mas Mahusay na Pagsulat ng Script gamit ang AI

Gusto mo bang magtrabaho nang mas matalino, hindi mas mahirap? Narito ang ilang tips kung paano gamitin ang mga tool tulad ng ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini at iba pa para mapabilis ang pagsulat ng script.

isang patalastas para sa Smarty Pillow na nagpapakita ng lalaking nakasuot ng amerikana

Bigyan ang AI ng tuwiran at detalyadong prompt na naglalarawan sa video na ginagawa mo. Idagdag ang mahahalagang konteksto, tulad ng:

  • Anong uri ng video ang ginagawa mo (influencer ad, product tutorial, brand video)
  • Para kanino ito (target na audience)
  • Ang layunin ng video (magpa-click, magpaliwanag ng konsepto, magturo)
  • Tono o boses na gusto mong gamitin nito (palakaibigan, propesyonal, mapag-usap)

Halimbawang prompt:

quote icon
"Write a 60-second video script for an influencer ad promoting a new skincare line called HeySkin to a Gen-Z audience. The tone should be confident and clear. End with a strong call to action.”

Step 2: Add key talking points

You can get more accurate results by including a short bullet list of the points you want the video to cover.

Halimbawa:

  • Pangalan ng produkto/serbisyo
  • Pangunahing halaga ng alok
  • Pananawagan sa pagkilos

Halimbawang prompt:

quote icon
"Isama ang mga sumusunod na punto: Tinutulungan ka ng HeySkin na manatiling moisturized buong araw. CTA: Gamitin ang aking discount code para sa 10% off."

Hakbang 3: Humiling ng tamang format

Ipaalam sa AI na kailangan mo ang script sa paraang angkop at epektibo para sa isang video.

Halimbawa:

  • Isang binibigkas na script na inihahatid ng isang Gen-Z na beauty influencer
  • Isang kaswal at makataong tono

Halimbawang prompt:

quote icon
"Isulat mo ito bilang isang spoken script na babasahin ng isang Gen Z beauty influencer. Gumamit ng natural, malikhain, at kwentuhang wika."

Hakbang 4: Suriin at ayusin

Sunod, kopyahin at i-paste ang script sa HeyGen at i-click ang preview button para ipabasa ito nang malakas sa iyong avatar! Tunog natural ba ito? Umaagos ba ang daloy nito sa paraang gusto mo? Kung hindi, hilingin sa ChatGPT na baguhin ito gamit ang mga prompt tulad ng:

  • Gawing mas kaswal/pormal ito
  • Maglagay ng mas malakas na pambungad sa simula
  • Magdagdag ng isang linya tungkol sa [feature o benepisyo]
  • Gawin itong bersyon na 30 segundo
  • Bigyan mo ako ng tatlong bersyon ng CTA

Hakbang 3: Gumawa ng Hyper Realistic na Avatar

Ang iyong tagapagsalita ang nagtatakda ng tono. Mayroon ang HeyGen ng mahigit 700 na handang gamitin na Public Avatars para sa paggamit, ngunit ang paglikha ng isang hyper-realistic na Custom Avatar ay nagbibigay sa iyo ng kakayahang umangkop sa anumang pangangailangan ng mga kliyente.

Best Practices: Creating High Quality Custom AI Voices

For the best voice quality, start with strong source audio. Here’s how to get a great recording:

• Gumamit ng de-kalidad na mikropono o smartphone, hawak nang mga 6–8" mula sa iyong bibig

• Mag-record sa isang tahimik na lugar na walang ingay

• Magsalita nang malinaw na may natural na paghinto at bahagyang pagpapahayag ng emosyon

• Mag-upload ng maraming sample na may iba’t ibang emosyonal na tono para sa mas maraming paraan ng paggamit (para sa HeyGen Custom Voice Clones lamang)

Prompting Best Practices
Be Specific

The more clearly you describe what you want (tone, look, gesture, emotion) the better the AI can match your vision.

Start with Structure

Use a consistent structure: what, who, where, how. This applies to visuals, voice tone, and motion direction.

Include Context & Intent

Let the AI know the purpose: Is it for a product demo? A social ad? A tutorial? Context helps tailor the result.

Use Descriptive Language

Use adjectives that convey emotion, style, or clarity (e.g., “confident,” “minimalist,” “high energy,” “calm pace”).

Iterate & Refine

Don’t settle for your first try. Small prompt tweaks can lead to dramatically better results in all media types!

Prompting best practices can vary slightly depending on what you’re creating

Explore the resources below to dive deeper into each type and get the most out of your prompts!


Step 4: Create and polish your scenes in AI Studio

Now that your script and avatar are ready, it’s time to bring your message to life in HeyGen’s AI Studio editor where it’s easy to customize, enhance, and polish every part of your video– no editing experience required!

Use Case #1: Video Ads

Customer Stories & Examples
Best Practices
  • Keep videos short. Aim for under 30 seconds to keep viewer attention and increase completion rates.
  • Lead with the value. Make sure your core message or value proposition is conveyed within the first few seconds
  • Match the format to the funnel. Tailor the ad length, style, and CTA based on where it will appear and what action you want.
  • Think mobile first. Optimize framing and pacing for small screen consumption.
  • Make your edits pop. Use b-roll, animated text and motion to keep visual energy high and engagement steady.
  • Test and optimize performance.A/B test different hooks, visuals, avatars, and CTAs to find what converts.
Top Features
  • Product Placement: add physical products to your videos with a click.
  • Generate Looks: make your avatar more dynamic by switching their pose, surroundings or attire with nothing but a text prompt.
Pro tip

Here's a tried and true script structure from social media producer George “GG” Gossland of Favoured:

  • Hook – Something visually weird or unexpected.
  • Problem – What challenges is your viewer facing?
  • Solution – How does the product or service alleviate those challenges?
  • USPs – aka “unique selling point.” Show the features that stand out!
  • CTA – Always give viewers something to do next.

Use Case #2: Social Influencer Videos

Customer Stories & Examples
Best Practices
  • Hook viewers fast. Aim to grab attention in the first 1-2 seconds with motion, bold text, or a compelling visual.
  • Design for silent autoplay. Use captions, text overlays, and visual storytelling since many users watch without sound.
  • Keep it short. Less is more. Aim for under 15-30 seconds on TikTok, Instagram Reels, or YouTube Shorts. Adjust your script speed using advanced voice settings.
  • Frame it for the feed. Use vertical (9:16) or square formats depending on the platform. Avoid landscape orientation unless you’re posting to YouTube.
  • Lead with the “aha.” Highlight the transformation, benefit, or emotional payoff early, not just the product features.
  • Make it look native. Use platform trends, faster-paced creator-style edits, or UGC avatars to blend into the feed.
Top Features
  • UGC avatars: browse hundreds of AI-generated stock avatars with an authentic content creator feel.
  • Captions: make sure your message gets through, even when the sound is off.
Pro tip

Here’s a high-performing content structure used by top creators across TikTok, Reels and Shorts:

  1. Scroll-stopping visuals: open with bold text, motion or a surprising visual to halt the scroll
  2. Relatable moment: reflect a real pain point or “I’ve been there” situation to build an instant connection
  3. Transformation or payoff: show the value of your product in action
  4. Creator POV: use voiceover or on-screen text to narrate with a personal, authentic tone
  5. Simple CTA: make the next step obvious! (“Try this,” “watch more,” or “visit website.”)

Use Case #3: Personalized Videos

Customer Stories & Examples
Best Practices
  • Segment your audience for relevance
    Break your audience into meaningful groups (leads, customers, event attendees, etc.) so each video feels tailored and intentional.
  • Create a flexible base script
    Write one strong script with clearly marked variables (like [First Name], [Company], [Product]) that can be easily swapped out without disrupting flow.
  • Use natural tone and pacing
    Keep a consistent, neutral delivery across both the static script and dynamic variables, avoiding exaggerated emphasis on names or custom inserts.
  • Keep it short and sharp
    Aim for 30–60 seconds. Focus on one key message or CTA to drive results without losing attention.
  • Be strategic with dynamic elements
    Add personalization through names, logos, and visuals, but don’t overload. Let the message stay clear and focused.
  • Test before scaling
    Run small test batches to check that variables render smoothly and don’t sound awkward in context.
  • Stay on-brand
    Use your client’s fonts, colors, and tone of voice. Personalization should feel like an extension of their brand.
  • Include a clear, personal CTA
    End with a call-to-action that aligns with your campaign goal like “Schedule your demo, [Name]” or “Let’s connect this week.”
  • Track performance and optimize
    Use video analytics or UTM links to measure watch rates, clicks, and conversions and refine your approach based on what works.
Top Features
  • Personalized Video: Create personalized videos that greet new hires by name and customize other variables such as department or region to streamline onboarding and boost engagement.
  • Custom Avatars: Give your onboarding a human touch with a digital twin or department-specific presenters to deliver training in a familiar, branded voice.
  • Brand Kit: Maintain visual brand consistency by setting up a Brand Kit with approved logos, fonts, colors, and assets.
