The AI Video Agent is the fastest way to create a video in Clippy. Type what you want, and the Agent handles the rest — scripting, media selection, voiceover, captions, and transitions.

How it works​

  1. Open the AI Video Agent from the editor toolbar
  2. Describe your video — for example: "30 second product launch video, professional tone, blue theme"
  3. Choose a style and click Generate

The Agent shows progress as it works. When it finishes, everything is on your timeline.

What gets created​

ComponentDescription
ScenesStructured scenes with relevant media from stock libraries
VoiceoverAI narration synced to each scene, with voice selection
CaptionsAuto-generated captions styled to match your brand
TransitionsSmooth transitions between every scene

Everything is editable​

The AI builds a first draft — you have full control afterward. Reorder scenes, swap media, edit text, change the voiceover script and regenerate. The timeline stays yours to tweak however you want.

Tips for better results​

  • Be specific in your description. Include tone, length, and visual style
  • Mention your brand colors or theme if you have one
  • Use the Agent for a first draft, then polish manually for a custom touch
