Welcome to the Out of The Box Series — where I test how far curiosity and AI can take you in 30, 60, or 90 minutes, using today’s best no-code and low-code tools.
No setup. No training. Just pure exploration — right out of the box.

🕒 Time Limit: 30 Minutes
📂 Category: AI Video Creation
💡 What I Built in 30 Minutes:
Using just one photo of me standing in front of a fireplace, a short script and HeyGen’s Create Video feature, I generated a full talking video in under 30 minutes.

What is HeyGen?
HeyGen is an AI video generation platform that turns a photo or default avatar, and a text script into lifelike talking videos.
You can create avatars, clone voices, and translate your message — all in minutes, no camera or video equipment required.
Settings Used:
I left everything on default settings, selected the “Calm and Warm” tone setting, and let HeyGen do the rest.
Prompt Used:
“Created a short, professional 40-second video introducing myself and the Out of The Box Series in a calm, confident tone.”
🚀 Result:
A clean, natural-looking AI video — smooth delivery, great lighting, and surprisingly realistic motion.
No filming. No editing.
This is what out of the box really looks like. Just one photo, one prompt, and 30 minutes.
