How to change template after project creation
If the content is right but the visual style is not, rebuild the scene layouts around a different template.
Step 1: Open the generated project
Go to the dashboard and open the project whose template you want to change. This works best after scenes have already been generated.
You do not need to recreate the project just because the visual style needs to change.
Step 2: Go to project settings
Open the project settings area and find the current template preview. This shows the template currently assigned to the project.
Click Change template to open the template picker.
Step 3: Pick a built-in or custom template
Use the Built-in tab for standard Blog2Video templates, or the Custom tab for templates your workspace has created.
Preview the new style before applying it. A high-energy template can change the feel of the same script dramatically.
Step 4: Confirm the relayout
Confirm the template change when prompted. Blog2Video rebuilds scene layouts for the new template while preserving the important project content.
The goal is to keep narration, display text, and voiceovers while adapting the visuals to the new template system.
- Narration is preserved.
- Display text is preserved.
- Voiceovers are preserved.
- Scene layouts are regenerated for the selected template.
Step 5: Review the updated scenes
After the relayout finishes, play through the project again. Check scenes with long text first because different templates handle space differently.
If one scene needs adjustment, use the scene editor rather than changing the whole template again.
