How it works

Four steps from course outline to lesson video.

Start with one lesson or module. The outline becomes a script, the script becomes a storyboard, and the storyboard becomes an editable video project.

01

Paste one course section

Use the module outline, lesson notes, learning objectives, or finished narration. Headings become scene breaks and examples stay attached to the point they explain.

02

Turn teaching points into a script

ngram rewrites dense notes into spoken lesson copy while preserving the order of the source material. Definitions, steps, and examples get their own lines in the plan.

03

Review the lesson storyboard

Approve the scene plan, change a learning objective, add an example, or ask for a shorter version in chat. The script, visuals, captions, and voiceover follow the approved structure.

04

Export the course video

Render an MP4 for a course page, training library, or social preview. Brand kit, captions, intro, outro, and aspect ratio choices stay attached to the project.

Output controls

Controls for lesson material, not generic slides.

Outline-aware scene breaks

Module headings, learning objectives, bullet lists, and examples become real scene boundaries. The video follows the lesson order instead of turning every paragraph into a flat slide.

Learning objectives stay visible

Keep objectives as title cards, section labels, or recap frames. Viewers know what each course-to-video section is teaching before the narration moves on.

Voiceover from the approved script

Generate narration in a default voice, a saved team voice, or another supported language. The voiceover reads the storyboard you approved, not a hidden rewrite.

Captions for quiet viewing

Every lesson video can render with burned-in captions styled by the workspace Brand Kit. Learners can follow definitions and steps even when the video plays muted.

Motion graphics for concepts

Numbered frameworks, definitions, checklists, and compare-and-contrast moments become animated cards and callouts instead of dense text blocks.

Course or company branding

Apply logo, colors, fonts, motion style and approved phrases from Brand Kit so every course video feels like the same program. Choose saved intro or outro slides for each video that needs them.

Localized lesson versions

Translate script, captions, on-screen text, and voiceover together for additional learner groups. Code, names, and course terms can stay in source language when needed.

Plan-aware export

Choose the aspect ratio for the course-outline edit and review it before export. Output is 720p on Basic, 1080p on Premium, and 4K on Ultimate. Share a public watch link on Free.

Use cases

Where a course-to-video workflow fits.

Course content

Outline-driven course videos

Turn one module outline into a lesson video with narration, captions, scene cards, and brand styling. Good for course builders who already know the lesson structure.

See use case
Creator courses

Creator lessons without a recording setup

Paste the lesson plan and let ngram build a narrated course video draft. The creator can edit the script and storyboard instead of filming every section first.

See use case
Corporate training

Training modules from source notes

Turn onboarding notes, SOP outlines, or policy lessons into branded training videos that employees can watch without opening a long document.

See use case
Explainer lesson

Hard concepts made visual

Use the course-to-video pass when a lesson depends on definitions, diagrams, or frameworks. Motion graphics give the concept a visual path through the explanation.

See use case
Tutorial lesson

Step-by-step lessons that stay ordered

Paste a procedural lesson and keep each step in sequence. The storyboard turns steps into scenes with labels, voiceover, and captions.

See use case
HR training

Policy lessons employees can finish

Use course to video for one policy module at a time, with objectives, examples, recap cards, and captions for employees who need a clear training version.

See use case
Customer education

Customer course modules from docs

Turn a setup lesson or feature-education outline into a customer-facing course video that pairs with help docs and onboarding emails.

See use case
Lecture recap

Course recaps after a live class

When the source is lecture notes instead of a recording, paste the outline and generate a shorter recap video that keeps the definitions and examples.

Integrations

Wire course to video into the workflow around the lesson.

Use live ngram integrations to start from approved text, review the video, and publish the finished lesson where learners already look.

How it compares

If you have been making course videos another way.

Course to video starts from lesson text and gives you a reviewable storyboard before the video renders. That is different from recording slides, narrating an avatar script, or packaging a course in an authoring tool.

Common questions about course to video

How do I convert course to video?

Paste one course outline, module note set, or lesson script into ngram. The agent turns it into a spoken script and scene-by-scene storyboard, then renders a branded MP4 after you review the plan.

What course material works best for course to video?

A focused module outline works best: learning objective, section headings, bullets, examples, and recap points. Long course plans should be split into one lesson or module per render.

Can ngram import a complete course automatically?

No. This converter is for pasted course text, public lesson pages, and one lesson or module at a time. It does not pull an entire course catalog into ngram.

Can I upload a course document?

Yes. Save the course document as a PDF and upload it here. You can also paste the lesson text or use a supported public lesson page. Review the proposed plan before creating the video.

Does course to video generate several lessons at once?

No. Use one module or lesson section per render so the script and storyboard stay focused. Reuse the same Brand Kit and style for the next lesson when you are ready.

What does the course video include?

The output is an MP4 with a lesson script, storyboarded scenes, AI voiceover, burned-in captions, motion graphics where useful, and Brand Kit styling across intro, body, and outro.

What resolution does the course video export at?

Basic export at 720p, Premium at 1080p, and Ultimate at 4K. Choose the aspect ratio for the current course-outline edit and review it before export. Share a public watch link on Free.

Can I translate a course video?

Yes. ngram can translate the script, captions, on-screen text, and voiceover together for localized lesson versions, then keep the translated video editable.

How is course to video different from docs to video?

Docs to video is the broad route for handbooks, SOPs, and structured documents. Course to video is framed around one lesson or module, with learning objectives, teaching examples, and recap scenes treated as first-class parts of the storyboard.

Course -> Video

Turn the next lesson outline into a video learners can watch.

Paste one course section, review the plan containing the script, and render a branded lesson video with voiceover and captions.

Put it into practice

Follow a workflow from source material to a video you can review, share and make again.

Each new lesson

Turn lesson notes into a concept explainer in Claude

Give Claude your teaching notes, learner level and worked example. Create a narrated lesson with ngram, review the visual explanation and reuse the request for the next concept.
