Write a text brief, get an animated explainer video. The 10-step route handles script, scenes, voiceover, and final export.

10 steps ~45min For marketers Free

Text to video AI tools convert a written brief into animated explainer videos with scenes, transitions, and voiceover. On aidowith.me, the Reels & Short Videos route includes a path for building explainer videos from scratch. You start with a text brief describing your product, service, or concept. AI breaks it into scenes, suggests visuals for each, and generates a voiceover script with proper pacing. Tools like Synthesia, HeyGen, or Pictory handle the animation and rendering. The route's 10 steps cover brief writing, scene-by-scene storyboarding, visual style selection, voiceover generation, and final export settings. Each step produces a visible piece of the video so you can review progress as you go. The finished explainer runs 60-90 seconds and looks polished enough for your website, pitch deck, or social channels. Total time: about 45 minutes from brief to exported file.

Questions

Synthesia and HeyGen are strong for avatar-based explainers with AI voiceover. Pictory works well for stock footage overlays with text narration. The route on aidowith.me shows you how to pick the right tool based on your video style and budget. Most have free tiers or trials that cover a 60-90 second video.

60-90 seconds for most use cases. Website landing pages, pitch decks, and social posts all perform best with short, focused explainers. The route structures your brief to hit this length by limiting scenes and tightening the script. If you need a longer format, you can extend the same workflow to 2-3 minutes.

Yes. The route generates an AI voiceover by default, but you can record your own and swap it in during the audio step. Some people prefer their own voice for brand consistency. The timing and scene structure stay the same either way. Just match your recording to the script pacing the route provides.
