## Transcript

show you the best ways to make faceless videos including some awesome AI tools so that you can start creating videos through the top options for you but make sure you stick around to hear them all
out because you'll likely find that the best one for you might actually be a combination of multiple of these options so the first method to make faceless videos could be to record your actions so that way you don't need to be on
happening so it could be that you're recording your hands and you're showing you're showing off a particular product or tool without you needing to be on camera now showing your actions could
also be recording your computer or your phone screen to show something happening create some sort of tutorial content but the idea here is that we're showing the thing or showing the action without us needing to be on camera now with this
style of content you might choose to add in a voice over of you maybe narrating what's happening or you could even use an AI Voice or even just text on screen the video either and we'll touch a little more on those things as we go
through as well the next option is to use stock video footage so you don't even need to go out and shoot all the video content yourself you can use stock footage sites that already have massive libraries of video files that you can
then use in your videos to build out your story even for the types of videos that there is a lot of stock footage that we use to help make the videos more engaging and to keep our viewers engaged so this is where recommend sites like
story blocks motion array and even art list Maxs and I'll also have a bunch of links and resources in the description box so definitely check those out another way to do it could just be creating a slide presentation so think a
keynote or a PowerPoint presentation where you've got the key information just listed on screen and then you can just cycle through the slides as your video obviously again we could add voice over we could add music and things to
the video you also might not need to that help you create amazing looking could use tools like canva that make the process really really easy or you can download pre-made templates from places like en elements and some of them look
really really good another option is simply to have text on screen and some of these videos can be super engaging and there's videos out there that literally just have text showing up on screen that have millions and millions
of views now usually when this is done it is in combination with some sort of voice over or narration human or AI but it could also be that you're just adding some music in with this text to help make it more engaging too and this is
text or you're changing it up on screen enough that it can create a really engaging video just in and of itself too now while this is a suggestion I would say that if it was me I'd definitely be leaning into using this more in
combination with your own footage or stock video files but it doesn't need to be either the next option is using photos or Graphics to create your video now this could be photos or images that you've taken yourself or you could also
purchase images or photos that you could use in your videos online as well and showing up one by one either as static images you could also edit them and have them flashing up on screen to maybe match the music track that you're using
animations to the images to make them more engaging now this is something that a lot of video editing tools out there does have some preset effects that you can drag and drop onto graphics and images to add a slow zoom in or a pan
tools out there like cap cut which have some Next Level effects allowing you to quickly and easily create amazing looking videos just from photos there's also websites like playet and in video
that will allow you to create animations really easy live on their websites to images for extra engagement or for those of you looking for Next Level templates that you can customize up that's where invado elements would be my go-to place
and again I got tutorials and a bunch of resources all linked below to help you with this stuff even further another option for faceless videos is to use instructional videos so you might have seen those videos where there's a screen
drawing things out or even more cartoon style videos where there's a character explaining something these can be a great simple fast and effective way for my top recommendations to help you create videos like this are doodle and
animer now probably the newest and the fastest changing method of creating faceless videos is to use AI video generators there's so many of these you generate everything from the video script to the voice over to adding video
footage and music all within minutes now we've tried and tested so many of these tools and as I said this is an area that is changing really really fast but my top recommendation right now is inv video AI it's definitely worth checking
out but you'll also find there's a bunch of AI Tools in software like cap cut as functionality too so while these are my top recommendations right now to help you create faceless videos I personally think that if you can push past your
going to allow you to build a deeper relationship and repour with your obviously totally understand if you can't or you really don't want to and again that's where one of these options or really a combination of these options
could be the best option for you right now and still allow you to create some really engaging helpful content now if you want to level up your video editing skills you can download our free video editing guide which is linked on screen
