The Honest Job Ad - Deadpan Role Promo

The deadpan sibling of Job Ad Promo - same automatic one-video-per-role trigger, flipped voice: lime on deep spruce, Geist-only type, and "perks" reframed as Full Disclosure confessions that double as selling points. Seven scenes: a comic-beat hook ("Everything is fine.*" with a late-popping lime asterisk and a typed footnote), the role reveal with location and Full-time pills plus a "(yes, actually remote)" aside, a team scene with the team name in lime, three 1/3-3/3 disclosure cards, and a full-bleed lime Apply outro ("The servers miss you already."). Swap the same per-role dynamic fields as v1 - job_title, location_mode, team_name, perk_1/2/3, apply_url, and company_logo (auto-knocked-out to ink on lime). Write the disclosures as honest confessions, 8-14 words: admit something true, make it charming.

Render it from the API

Copy either call below. Both already carry this template's ID and its real variable keys - swap the values for your own.

1. Preview it — free

Same body as a render. Costs no credits, creates no job. Returns a public URL that plays the video in a browser, plus a list of problems with your payload — a mistyped key is otherwise ignored in silence.

curl -X POST https://renderly.video/api/v1/previews \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $RENDERLY_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
  "templateId": "job-ad-promo-v2",
  "replacements": {
    "company_logo": "https://renderly-video.s3.ap-east-1.amazonaws.com/templates/job-ad-v2-acme-logo.png",
    "job_title": "Senior Backend Engineer",
    "location_mode": "Remote · EU time zones",
    "team_name": "Platform",
    "perk_1": "There is legacy code. We apologize for it in the comments.",
    "perk_2": "On-call is quiet now. It cost us years. Please don'\''t break it."
  }
}'

2. Render it

Change one word in the URL. Keep templateId — it is what links your call to this template, so later improvements reach you automatically.

curl -X POST https://renderly.video/api/v1/renders \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $RENDERLY_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
  "templateId": "job-ad-promo-v2",
  "replacements": {
    "company_logo": "https://renderly-video.s3.ap-east-1.amazonaws.com/templates/job-ad-v2-acme-logo.png",
    "job_title": "Senior Backend Engineer",
    "location_mode": "Remote · EU time zones",
    "team_name": "Platform",
    "perk_1": "There is legacy code. We apologize for it in the comments.",
    "perk_2": "On-call is quiet now. It cost us years. Please don'\''t break it."
  }
}'

The body above shows 6 of 8 variables. Send any subset — every key you leave out renders its authored default. Read the full contract, with character limits, from GET /api/v1/templates/job-ad-promo-v2/variables. See the previewing guide, the rendering guide, or the OpenAPI spec.

Frequently asked questions

How do I customize the The Honest Job Ad - Deadpan Role Promo template?

Open the template in the Renderly editor and replace its 8 customizable fields (such as Company Logo) with your own text, images, or video. Every change previews instantly before you render.

How much does it cost to render this template?

Rendering is credit-based - 1 credit equals 1 minute of 1080p video. You only pay when you export, and credits never expire on the pay-as-you-go plan.

Can I generate this video at scale via the API?

Yes. POST this template's ID and a replacements object to /api/v1/renders - one call per row of data, 8 fields swappable per video. Send the same body to /api/v1/previews first to check it for free. No-code integrations like Zapier work the same way.

Crypto Price Alert template preview

Crypto Price Alert

A dark, fast vertical alert card for one crypto asset and one price move, fired when a threshold is crossed: the asset, the percentage move in crypto gold, the timeframe, the price now against where it started, and a call to action. 15 seconds, 9:16 (1080x1920). Dynamic fields: asset_symbol, asset_name, move_pct (sign included), timeframe, price_now, price_from, alert_time, source_name and cta_line. Reads the same for a 3% move or a 40% drop, up or down.

Reddit Story Reader template preview

Reddit Story Reader

A screen-native story-reader short for faceless channels: a forum post card with the title and source, then three body pages in grey panels with a page counter and progress bar, and an end card that sets up the next part. 53 seconds, 9:16 (1080x1920). Dynamic fields: post_title, source_label, page_1, page_2, page_3 (up to about 380 characters each), part_label, outro_line and channel_handle. Longer stories render as several parts.

Motivational Quote Reel template preview

Motivational Quote Reel

The moving sibling of the Daily Quote card: one quote over slow, graded footage with an optional AI-narrated read. 23 seconds, 9:16 at 1080x1920, five scenes - a title card, the quote, the attribution, a near-black quote card built to be screenshotted, and a follow outro - in near-black, warm white and a single warm-amber accent, set in Cormorant Garamond with JetBrains Mono furniture. Dynamic fields: series_label, date_label, the_line, attribution, handle (text), background_clip (video) and narration (sound, filled per render with a text-to-speech value). It uses the same field names as the Daily Social Card - Quote, so one row a day renders both the square card and the vertical reel.
