Action Templates define how your AI presenter is framed and moves throughout the video. Each preset combines camera movement with a presentation style, making it easier to match your video to your content.
For example, some templates work best for storytelling, while others are designed for product demonstrations or professional presentations.
Note: If you're not sure which template to choose, select Auto. The system will automatically choose the Action Template that best matches your scene.
You can select one of 7 Action Templates:
1. The Story Teller
The Story Teller action template creates videos that feel like a person is sharing a story naturally with the viewer. Instead of simply presenting information, the character guides the audience through an experience using expressive facial movements, natural gestures, and conversational pacing.
This style is designed to build emotional connection and keep viewers engaged from beginning to end.
How it presents your video
When using The Story Teller, the AI avatar typically:
Looks directly at the camera
Speaks with expressive facial animations
Uses natural hand gestures
Changes posture slightly during speech
Creates a conversational atmosphere
Guides viewers from one idea to the next smoothly
The result feels similar to a professional presenter telling a compelling story rather than reading a script.
Tips for the best results
To create the most engaging storytelling videos:
Use a high-quality image where the subject's face is clearly visible and looking toward the camera.
Write your Narration as a natural conversation rather than a formal script.
