Sample AI Output
2-minute teleprompter script at 130 wpm (~260 words), marked with [PAUSE 1s] at natural breaks, 4 HeyGen scenes mapped to script segments, 5 lip-sync coaching tips (e.g., avoid contractions with adjacent bilabials), 4 screen-share insert cues, and thumbnail concept showing the avatar pointing at a feature highlight.
Tips for Better Results
Write scripts at exactly 130 words/minute for HeyGen — paste the script into a word counter and time yourself reading aloud. Avoid words with 'p', 'b', 'm' clusters near each other — they cause lip-sync artifacts. Always render a 10-second test clip before full production.
