Motion Graphics

Motion Graphics lets you generate animated visual assets directly inside a scene in the Synthesia Editor. Assets are generated from the scene script using a set of pre-built styles, and appear in the scene like any other media element.

🚧
Beta feature
This feature is in beta. Functionality and UI may change.

Overview

With Motion Graphics, you can:

Generate motion assets in one click — no manual animation work required.
Base generation on the scene script — making it fast to try and easy to iterate.
Add automatic sound effects — so the output feels polished without extra steps.
Choose from pre-built styles — minimal, tangerine, soft, and dark.

Motion Graphics works especially well for structured content formats such as cards, timelines, and checklists.

How it works

Open a video in the Editor.
Select a scene.
Go to the Motion Graphics icon at the top-left of the script box.
Choose a style: minimal, tangerine, soft, or dark.
Click Generate.
The generated asset is placed in the scene as a media element.

Editing & iterations

❗️
You can’t manually edit a generated Motion Graphic. To make changes you will need to re-generate.

Re-generate

After generating a Motion Graphic, you can change the style and re-generate it from the Inspector.

Click the Motion Graphic asset in the scene.
In the right-side Inspector panel, click Re-generate in the video section.
Select a style.
Click Generate.
The current asset will be replaced with a newly generated version.

📘
Note: The output may vary between generations (even with the same style).

Considerations

The following considerations apply:

Maximum duration: 30 seconds per generation. Split scenes longer than 30 seconds before generating.
Branding: Generated assets cannot be branded.
Editing: Generated assets cannot be manually edited.
Feature flag: Motion graphics requires AI-generated stock content to be enabled on the workspace level.
