Faceless video generator for YouTube Shorts, Reels and TikTok
A faceless video tells its story without anyone on camera: the voice-over, captions and visuals do the work. Voom makes faceless explainers as designed motion graphics, with type, diagrams and icons built for each topic, a voice-over in one of 20 voices, original music and captions. No stock clips and no avatars. Your first video, up to 30 seconds, is free.
A faceless YouTube Short made from one prompt: why we have leap years. Made with Voom from this prompt alone, a hypothetical brief with no link.
Prompt A 30-second faceless YouTube Short: why do we have leap years? Earth takes about 365.24 days to go round the Sun, so every four years we add 29 February, but century years skip it unless they divide by 400, which is why 2000 had one and 1900 didn't. Fast, curious, bold captions.
How do you make a faceless video with Voom?
01
Pick one question
Good faceless Shorts answer one question a viewer already has. Write the question and the facts the answer needs in your prompt.
02
Set the format
Write ‘vertical’ or ‘9:16’ and a length such as ‘30-second’ in the prompt, or pick them on the Create page. Choose a language and a voice, and turn captions on.
03
Post the MP4
Voom writes the script, designs every shot, records the voice-over, writes the music and renders a 1080 × 1920 MP4 you upload yourself.

How to make faceless videos that hold attention
Open on the question
The first line should be the question the viewer is curious about, on screen and in the voice-over at once. The sample film opens on a calendar jumping from 27 to 29 and the line ‘Why does February sometimes get a twenty-ninth?’ before it explains anything.
Designed visuals, not stock clips
Many faceless tools lay stock footage under a voice. Voom draws each idea instead, such as a calendar that gains a day or an orbit that runs a quarter of a day late. Pictures that match the words make the point without a presenter.
Captions carry the video
Many people watch short videos with the sound off, so the captions are the script. Turn them on: Voom times them to the voice word by word and burns them into the video, above the area where the platform’s buttons sit.
What it is not
Voom does not make realistic footage, AI presenters or cinematic scenes, and it does not post or schedule uploads for you. For a channel built on stock footage or on an avatar, another kind of tool fits better.
A video in which no one appears on camera. A voice-over, captions and visuals such as animation, diagrams or footage tell the story. Faceless videos are common on YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels and TikTok for explainers, science, finance and history channels, because they can be made without filming.
Yes. Voom writes the script, designs each shot as motion graphics, records a voice-over, writes music and adds captions, then renders a 9:16 MP4 that you upload yourself. You choose the length, the language and the voice. Writing ‘vertical’, ‘9:16’ or ‘YouTube Shorts’ in the prompt sets the vertical size for you.
No. Voom makes designed motion graphics: type, shapes, icons, diagrams and charts. It does not use stock clips, generated people or avatars. If your channel needs realistic footage or a presenter, a stock-footage editor or an avatar tool fits better.
YouTube accepts Shorts of up to 3 minutes. On Voom, the free video runs up to 30 seconds, Pro up to 90 seconds and Business up to 3 minutes. Most faceless explainers that answer one question fit in 30 to 60 seconds.
You do. Voom’s terms say the videos you make are yours to use, subject to the rights of others in your content, and Voom does not use your content or your videos to train AI models. Paid plans have no watermark.
Voom offers 23 languages, including Hindi, Bengali, Tamil, Spanish, Portuguese, Turkish, Arabic, Indonesian and Japanese. Each of the 20 voices speaks every one of them, and the captions follow the voice.
