Considering that I did this is mere minutes and all for free, I think these videos are pretty darn good!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you sign up for a new account you get to create your avatar by recording a 30s video. Then you get 1 credit to create a video with your avatar up to one minute long. After creating my first avatar I got another one free credit so I made the second video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/educatoral.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/HeyGen.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"462\" src=\"https:\/\/educatoral.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/HeyGen-1024x462.png\" alt=\"Screenshot of the HeyGen dashboard.\" class=\"wp-image-8068\" srcset=\"https:\/\/educatoral.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/HeyGen-1024x462.png 1024w, https:\/\/educatoral.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/HeyGen-400x181.png 400w, https:\/\/educatoral.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/HeyGen-150x68.png 150w, https:\/\/educatoral.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/HeyGen-768x347.png 768w, https:\/\/educatoral.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/HeyGen-1536x693.png 1536w, https:\/\/educatoral.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/HeyGen-750x339.png 750w, https:\/\/educatoral.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/HeyGen.png 1912w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">HeyGen dashboard.
