Templates Intermediate

HeyGen templates accelerate video production by providing pre-designed layouts, backgrounds, and scene structures. Instead of building every video from scratch, start with a template that matches your use case, swap in your content, and render. This lesson covers template selection, customization, brand kits, and batch creation workflows.

Template Categories

Brand Kit Setup

Create a brand kit to ensure all videos maintain visual consistency:

• Upload your logo and set placement/size defaults
• Define brand colors for backgrounds, text, and accents
• Choose brand fonts (or upload custom fonts)
• Set intro/outro sequences that bookend every video
• Configure default avatar and voice for your brand

Dynamic Variables

Templates support dynamic variables - placeholders that get replaced with specific values at render time. Use variables like {{customer_name}}, {{product}}, or {{company}} to personalize videos at scale without editing the template each time.
