# HeyGen Video 1 for social media

> HeyGen's text-to-video model at 480p, and every clip comes with sound. At the low end of the cost scale and available on the Free plan, it is an inexpensive way to make short clips with audio.

HeyGen Video 1 is one of 80+ AI models in Autoadify, the AI agent for social media. No HeyGen account or API key is needed: every model is in one subscription, chosen per generation — by asking the AI agent, in a social media AI workflow step, or in AI Studio.

- **Lab:** HeyGen
- **What it is:** HeyGen Video 1 — text to video, 480p, with sound
- **Best for:** B-roll, Budget
- **Available on:** every plan, including Free
- **Cost band:** Low, relative to its own type
- **Clip lengths:** 5, 10, 15 seconds
- **Sound:** always included

## What to make with HeyGen Video 1

- **Reel backgrounds** (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube): Motion behind on-screen text, so a tip or a quote becomes a reel.
- **Product motion** (Instagram, TikTok, Facebook): Product turns, close-ups and texture shots for a launch.
- **Daily posting on autopilot** (Instagram, Facebook, X): Run it in an AI Workflow every day without the cost adding up.

**Pick it when:** You want cheap clips that already have sound.

**Try Veo 3.1 Lite instead** for a higher-resolution clip with optional sound.

## Where the clip goes

Vertical 9:16 is the native shape for short video on most platforms.

| Platform | Spec | Note |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Instagram | 1080 × 1920 | Stories & Reels: 9:16 — full screen vertical, safe zone: center 1080×1420 |
| TikTok | 1080 × 1920 | Feed Video: 9:16 full screen — primary format, always use this |
| Facebook | 1080 × 1920 | Stories: 9:16 — same as Instagram Stories |

## Sample prompts

- **LinkedIn / YouTube video** — prompt: "Create a premium short product announcement video. Do NOT create or invent any Autoadify product UI, dashboards, logos, interfaces, buttons, product screens, feature lists, or fictional product information — the announcement is told through typography and cinematic scenes only.

SCENE 1 — TEXT HOOK. Clean, sophisticated dark background. Large bold text appears: "HEYGEN IS NOW ON AUTOADIFY". Hold briefly, then a subtle transition reveals: "Meet a new level of AI video creation.". Elegant typography, minimal motion, premium sound design.

SCENE 2 — THE CAPABILITY. Cut to a high-quality, photorealistic AI presenter speaking directly to camera: realistic facial expressions, natural lip sync, realistic eye movement, natural head and body movement, professional studio lighting, clean cinematic composition. The presenter says naturally: "Create professional videos with AI-powered digital presenters.". No software interface.

SCENE 3 — THE RANGE. Fast cinematic cuts of the same capability in different professional contexts: a presenter explaining a business concept; a polished marketing presenter introducing a product; a multilingual presenter speaking naturally in another language; a vertical social-media presenter delivering a short message. Every scene photorealistic and premium. Minimal overlay text: "Realistic avatars." "Natural voices." "Professional videos."

SCENE 4 — FINAL ANNOUNCEMENT. Back to a clean dark background. Large text: "AUTOADIFY NOW SUPPORTS HEYGEN". Then a smaller line: "Create. Automate. Scale.". Finish with: "Try it on Autoadify."

STYLE: premium product launch, cinematic, minimal, fast-paced, sophisticated, photorealistic, high-end commercial production. Avoid generic futuristic visuals, robots, holograms, excessive neon, fake software interfaces, invented product features, fake dashboards and unnecessary effects."
