New Video Templates let creators brand, caption, and publish clips or full-length videos in minutes; no design experience required.

As Apple accelerates its push into video podcasting and YouTube cements itself as a top discovery platform, the topic of ‘video in podcasting’ is seemingly everywhere. But, for the busy podcaster, actually sitting down and creating video takes a lot of time. And, the pressure to do so is mounting.

The problem isn’t motivation. It’s bandwidth. Most podcasters realize the opportunity video provides, but they just don’t have the hours, the design software, or the energy to make video consistently.

That’s why Headliner is excited to announce the launch of Video Templates. Video Templates help take away some of that pressure and give some of that bandwidth back by providing assets that can be automatically applied to showcase a podcast’s visual identity. With Headliner’s Video Templates, any podcaster can brand, caption, and publish a video quickly. No special software or eye for design required.

How It Works: Customize Templates or Grab-and-Go.

Creators access Video Templates directly inside Headliner’s video clipping wizard. From there, the workflow is four steps:

• Select or generate clips. Manually trim or let Headliner’s AI generate up to 10 clips from a full-length episode.
• Choose a template. Browse seven launch styles ranging from minimal to bold.
• Customize once. Adjust fonts, colors, and layouts to match the show’s brand.
• Save, export, or schedule. Publish directly to major social platforms from within Headliner.

And, for podcasters with an extra eye for design, Headliner allows you to create templates from scratch. Much like audiograms, Headliner guides podcasters through the entire process, making it easy to design awesome video templates to showcase your show’s unique style and flair.

Seven Launch Templates

Headliner’s initial release includes 7 customizable templates, each with a distinct visual identity:

• Default. Clean, versatile, and ready for anything.
• Basic. No frills, no fuss. Just your content and high-quality subtitle-inspired captions.
• Pink Pony. Bold, playful, and impossible to scroll past.
• Bold N’ Blue. High contrast, high confidence.
• Pop of Yellow. An energetic burst of yellow designed to capture attention fast.
• Conspiracy Glow. For the creators who just want their visuals to match the vibe.
• Black Bars. Minimal but different. Perfect for stopping the scroll.

Again, all templates can be used as is or customized to accentuate any show brand and visual identity (colors, fonts, etc.).

Consistent Branding, Without the Extra Work

For any type of creator, consistency is key. And, for podcasters looking to carve their own path forward with video, consistency is especially important. Algorithmic platforms, like YouTube and TikTok, reward content that audiences recognize. In a landscape where mobile viewers are scrolling through vertical video speedily, a show’s visual identity is often what earns the stop before a single word is heard.

In short, podcast videos with a consistent look and feel are how audiences come to know and recognize a show in an ever-growing, competitive landscape.

With Video Templates by Headliner, style it once. Save it. Apply it to every clip and caption every episode. Video Templates help your show up consistently because the hard work is already done (for you).
