Talking video templates
Templates for talking-to-camera videos
You talk to the camera and the template does most of the editing. Voxcene's talking templates frame your clip, cut it into a hook and a point, and keep your voice in. Your captions come out in the template's style.

Templates that suit talking
Four of Voxcene's ten templates carry a voice well. Each one sets its own caption style, so when you caption the video your words already look the part.
-
Soundbite Cut
Box the interview, blur the rest, hit hard
Built for a talking clip: wide footage sits boxed in the middle over a blurred copy of itself.
The hook → The point → The reaction → The kicker
-
Story Time
A beginning, a middle, a cliffhanger
A storytime to camera, with an 8-second middle for the telling.
Set the scene → What happened → The twist
-
Podcast Clip
The best minute of the conversation
Ten seconds of conversation under a show title, then an outro card with your handle.
The moment → Outro card
-
Hook Reel
Grab them in the first two seconds
Your best line first, the point, then “Follow for more”.
Your hook → The story → Call to action
Drawn from the template catalogue in Voxcene 1.2: each template's first placeholder card and its parts to scale. Not a render. All ten are on video templates.
01 · Captions
Captions built in, B-roll when you want it
Each template sets a caption style: Cobalt Pill on Soundbite Cut, Paper Note on Story Time and Editorial on Podcast Clip. After the build, open Captions and transcribe the video. Your words appear in that style, timed word by word, in any of 60+ languages, and if you fix a word in the transcript the caption changes with it. You can also switch to any of the 143 styles. More in auto captions.
Templates don't add B-roll of their own. You can put a photo or a cutaway clip in any part, and photos get a slow push so they don't sit frozen. On Premium, Generated B-roll can add still pictures where your words call for them.
- The template picks the caption style
- Transcribe once for word-by-word timing
- Your own sound stays under the music
- Generated B-roll on Premium, or your own photos
02 · Record
Teleprompter recording
Talking to camera is easier with the words in front of you. Voxcene's teleprompter scrolls your script over the live camera: on the Create tab, under Videos, tap Teleprompter, paste your script and read. Lines you've read turn green; the speed is yours to set, not voice-led.
A teleprompter take opens as its own project, captioned and ready to edit. To record into a template part instead, tap the part and choose Capture now. Voxcene's camera opens on the viewfinder, and the take goes into that part.

FAQ
Questions people ask
What is a talking head video template?
A ready-made edit for a video of someone speaking to camera: where the cuts go, how the speaker is framed, the captions' look and the music under the voice. In Voxcene you drop your own takes into it and the edit is done.
Which Voxcene templates work for talking videos?
Soundbite Cut is built for it: a talking clip boxed over a blurred backdrop, with pill captions. Story Time suits a storytime, Podcast Clip a moment from a conversation, and Hook Reel a quick opinion. Story Time and Hook Reel are free; the other two open on Basic and Premium.
Does the template caption my video automatically?
Not on its own. The template sets the caption style; you transcribe the video in the editor and your words appear in that style, timed word by word. Captioning uses your plan's caption minutes, in any of 60+ languages.
Is my voice kept, or replaced by the template's music?
Kept. Each clip's own sound plays, with the template's track underneath. You can turn the music down or remove it in the editor.
Can the template add B-roll for me?
Not in this version, because the templates have no B-roll of their own. You can put photos or cutaway clips in parts yourself. On Premium, Generated B-roll in AI Studio adds still pictures with a slow zoom where your words call for them.
Can I use the teleprompter with a template?
Not directly: a teleprompter recording opens as its own project, captioned and ready to edit. For a template part, tap Capture now to record a take right into it with Voxcene's camera.
