Turn course notes into a short lesson video
Your notes already contain the lesson: the concept, the example you always use, and the question that checks understanding. Upload them and Storyvalo drafts a short lesson video around one learning objective. You check the explanation and terminology before rendering, so the video teaches what you would teach.
Opens the studio with an editable course notes to lesson video brief. Sign in or create a free account first; nothing is generated or charged until you continue.
A good fit when
- You teach a course and want short videos for revision or flipped lessons.
- Your notes cover one concept per section.
- You want to keep your own examples and vocabulary.
The closest real example
Original course notes became this short lesson about checking evidence, with a clear objective and a recap.
Fictional demonstration: the brand, source and scenario were invented for this example. It is not a customer testimonial or evidence of business results. Watch it with its source and script.
Course notes to video, step by step
Upload one section of notes
Add the notes as PDF, text or Markdown. Upload diagrams as images if you want them shown exactly as drawn.
Name the objective
The starter asks for one learning objective, one worked example and a recap question. Edit it to state your learners’ level.
Check the explanation
Read every scene for accuracy and vocabulary. AI drafts do not replace your subject knowledge.
Render and assign
Render a landscape lesson with captions and add it to your course page or learning platform.
Short beats complete
A lesson video is not a lecture recording. One concept in one to three minutes, with a question at the end, is easier to watch and to reuse. Make a series if a topic needs more.
Accessibility from the start
Captions help learners who are deaf or hard of hearing, studying in a second language, or watching without sound. Keep them on, and upload the subtitle file with the video.
Reuse across terms
Keep each lesson as its own project. Next term, restore or copy it, update the notes that changed, and render again instead of starting from scratch.
The starter brief
“Use this starter” fills in this brief in the studio. Edit any of it before you generate a storyboard.
Turn my uploaded course notes into a short lesson video. State one learning objective, explain the core concept in plain language, add one worked example from the notes, and end with a recap question for learners. Use only facts from my source. Do not invent statistics, prices, quotes, customer names or results.
Review before you publish
Storyvalo drafts the script and assembles the video; you decide what is accurate. Read every scene against its source, check names, numbers and claims, and only use material you have permission to use. Stock footage and AI illustrations are illustrative, and narration is AI-generated.
What it costs
One 60-second, watermarked 720p export per verified account each calendar month. It ends with a short “Made with Storyvalo” card over its last two seconds. Standard voices and still or stock media. No payment card, no automatic subscription. Paid exports stay 1080p without the Storyvalo watermark. A free account includes five minutes of AI script attempts each calendar month, an editable storyboard and an interactive preview, with no card. Rendering a narrated video uses video minutes: export one minute for $2.99 or three minutes for $7.99, plus applicable tax, without a subscription. Monthly plans suit regular production and longer videos. Compare plans and packs.
