# Announcement Video Generator

A launch, a change or a milestone — said once, said well, and square for a feed.

Canonical page: https://www.veedio.co/tools/announcement-video-generator
Search intent: Has news to share and wants it to land as a video rather than as a paragraph nobody reads.

## What it produces

- 5 to 8 scenes, each with one spoken line and one generated frame
- A minute by default; 30, 60, 90 or 180 seconds are selectable in the composer (free accounts up to 60s, paid plans to 180s). Scene length comes from the narration's true duration
- ElevenLabs voiceover: 5 voices, narrating in any of 29 languages
- Word-timed captions burned in from the voice model's own character alignment
- A licensed music bed, ducked under the narration, loudness-normalised master
- 9:16, 1:1 or 16:9, 1080-class, no watermark on any plan

## Preset applied on this page

- Source type: prompt
- Voice: adam
- Captions: bold-center
- Music: uplifting
- Visual style: documentary
- Aspect ratio: 1:1

## The brief this page adds, verbatim

This string is prepended to whatever the visitor types before the scriptwriter
sees it — in the free preview on this page, in the video you generate after
clicking through to the composer, and in the API when you send
`preset: "announcement-video-generator"`. It is the only difference between this page and
the others.

> Write this as an announcement. Lead with the change itself in one sentence — no build-up, no “we are excited to”. Scene two says what it means for the person watching. Then one scene of context on why it happened, and one on what changes for them practically. Close with the date it takes effect. Plain and professional; no hype and no thanking of stakeholders.

## Example inputs from the page

- We are moving the workshop to a bigger unit and opening on Saturdays from April
- Our support hours now cover weekends, at no extra cost on any plan
- We hit ten thousand orders this year and are giving the team a shutdown week

## Free with an account

The widget on the page runs the real scriptwriter with this preset and returns the
script, the per-scene image prompts and the estimated runtime. That needs a free
account — it takes a moment and no card — and costs no credits. Rendering the
visuals, voiceover and final file does spend credits, and signup comes with 60 of
them (about 4 videos).

## How it works

1. **State the change** — One sentence. The build-up is what makes announcements unwatchable.
2. **What it means for them** — Scene two is the consequence for the viewer, not the reason it was hard for you.
3. **Square and measured** — 1:1 with a documentary read, which is the register a feed reads as news.

## “We are excited to announce” is where the viewer leaves

Every announcement written by a company opens with how the company feels about it. Nobody watching cares, and the first three seconds are the only ones you reliably get.

So the brief starts on the change itself, stated flatly, and puts the consequence for the viewer in scene two. The reasons and the thanks come after, if at all. It reads as news rather than as a press release, which is the register that gets watched.

## Why square rather than vertical

Announcements go to a mixed audience across LinkedIn, X and a company page, and much of that is read on a desktop where a 9:16 video is a narrow strip in the middle of a column.

1:1 fills the column on desktop and remains perfectly watchable on a phone. If you are posting to Reels or Shorts specifically, switch to 9:16 in the dropdown — it is one control and it is not gated by plan.

## The one thing to check before you render

An announcement is the most consequential thing on this site to get wrong, because it is a statement of fact about your own company that people will act on. A model will happily smooth a date, soften a condition or invent a reassurance you did not authorise.

The script is free to read on this page before anything is rendered, and every line is editable afterwards. For this preset specifically, read it twice: once for the tone, and once for whether every factual sentence in it is one you would put in writing.

## Who it is for

- **Small companies** — News that would otherwise be a paragraph nobody read, as forty seconds people watch.
- **Product teams** — A release note in a format that reaches people outside the changelog.
- **Nonprofits and community organisations** — Announcements that need to be clear rather than clever.
- **Internal comms** — One change explained once, the same way, to everybody.

## Compared with making it the usual way

| | The usual way | With Veedio |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Input | A press release, a designer, and a video that arrives after the news does. | The change in a sentence. A square, captioned video in about a minute. |
| Visuals | Film it, or licence stock and hope a clip matches the line. | A frame generated per scene from that scene's own line. |
| Voiceover | Book a VO artist, or record yourself and cut the breaths out. | Five ElevenLabs voices, re-recorded free whenever the line changes. |
| Captions | Auto-captions that drift, then an hour nudging keyframes. | Burned in from the voice model’s own word alignment, so they land on the syllable. |
| Turnaround | Days, which is longer than an announcement stays news. | The same morning the decision was made. |
| Changing it | A date slips and the whole video is re-cut. | Edit the line with the date in it and regenerate one scene. Free. |

## FAQ

### Can somebody from the company be on camera?

Not on camera: no video or audio goes in, a photo of them can only open the video, and the presenter avatar on Pro and Studio is a stock face. Every scene is generated. For an announcement that needs a named person’s face, film that separately.

### Will it get our facts right?

It only knows what you put in the box, and it will happily smooth a date or soften a condition. Read the free script before rendering, and check every factual sentence as something you would put in writing.

### Why square?

Because announcements go to a mixed desktop and mobile audience, and a vertical video in a desktop column is a narrow strip. 9:16 is one dropdown away.

### Can I use it for internal comms?

Yes, and it is a good fit — one change explained the same way to everyone, in under a minute. The file is yours with no watermark on any plan.

### How long should an announcement be?

Thirty to forty-five seconds. If it needs longer, it is two announcements or it is a document.

### Is the script free?

Yes — with a free account the script costs no credits. Rendering it does, and signup includes 60 credits and needs no card.

### Do I have to sign up to try this?

Yes, a free one. Signup takes a moment and needs no card. Once you are signed in, the box at the top writes the script and the shot list for no credits — that is the part that decides whether the video is worth making — and rendering it into a file uses the 60 free credits the account starts with, about four videos.

### What does it cost after the free credits?

Starter is $19 a month, Pro $49, Studio $149. A credit is a unit of pipeline cost rather than a video, so a five-scene short costs less than a nine-scene one, and you see the estimate before you spend anything.

### Do I own the videos, and is there a watermark?

You own them, on every plan including the free credits, and there is no watermark on any plan, no resolution cap and no platform withheld. Four things do follow the plan, because they are what a video costs to make: AI motion and sound effects need Starter, a presenter avatar and the choice of video model need Pro, and a free account tops out at a minute where paid plans go to three. Everything else — every voice, every language, every caption style, every aspect ratio — is the same on all of them.
