Generate videos

Video templates are in beta. The editor, the API, and the SDK methods can still change.

How a video template works

​

Design a video

1. Click New template, then Blank video. The editor opens a 1080 by 1920 canvas with a 5-second timeline at 30 fps.
2. Add layers as in an image template: text, images, shapes, and frames. To add a clip, use Objects → Video, or drop a video file on the canvas.
3. Drag the bars on the timeline to set when each layer starts and ends.
4. Select a layer and open the Motion tab of the right panel. Set its timing, then pick an Enter, Exit, Ambient, or Behavior preset. Start after makes a layer start when another layer ends.
5. With no layer selected, the Motion tab sets the duration (up to 60 seconds), the frame rate (24, 25, 30, or 60 fps), and the music, with its start and volume.
6. Press play to watch the video.

Render a video

curl --request POST \
  --url https://api.bannerify.co/v1/templates/renderVideo \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{
    "apiKey": "YOUR_API_KEY",
    "templateId": "tpl_xxx",
    "modifications": [
      { "name": "headline", "text": "Summer sale" },
      { "name": "photo", "src": "https://example.com/image.png" },
      { "name": "music", "src": "https://example.com/song.mp3" }
    ]
  }'

{ "url": "https://images.bannerify.co/files/0b3c1c1e-5d6f-4c52-9e0a-8f6a4c0f2a11.mp4" }

• A modification with the name of a video layer and a src changes the clip of that layer.
• The modification named music with a src changes the music. The music keeps its start and volume.
