Social Media Video Template

Valentine's Day Offer

A 23-second 9:16 (1080x1920) reservations driver for any business that sells a dated seasonal offer — restaurants, florists, salons and jewellers all fit the same five frames, because nothing static on the card names a trade. Deep burgundy and blush alternate as ground and ink, Prata sets the display like an engraved menu card, and crimson is spent exactly four times, each on the thing the viewer is meant to act on: the date chip, the price, the covers-remaining chip and the booking bar. The five scenes carry the occasion and date, one breath of atmosphere over the venue's photograph, the offer with what is included and what it costs, the seatings and how little is left, then the booking instruction. Sixteen fields are swapped per render — 14 text (offer_name, date_label, venue_name, location_label, offer_line, include_1, include_2, include_3, price_value, price_unit, seating_times, scarcity_note, booking_channel, booking_deadline) and 2 evergreen photos (hero_image full-bleed, detail_image matted into a hard-edged window) — so a booking platform, an ordering system or a salon scheduler can render one clip per venue on the first of February and serve a whole high street in an afternoon.

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": "valentines-day-offer",
  "replacements": {
    "location_label": "Marylebone · London",
    "date_label": "Friday 14 February",
    "offer_name": "Valentine'\''s Dinner",
    "venue_name": "Maison Laurent",
    "hero_image": "https://images.pexels.com/photos/36747299/pexels-photo-36747299.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&w=2400",
    "offer_line": "One table, one evening, and nothing else to think about."
  }
}'

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": "valentines-day-offer",
  "replacements": {
    "location_label": "Marylebone · London",
    "date_label": "Friday 14 February",
    "offer_name": "Valentine'\''s Dinner",
    "venue_name": "Maison Laurent",
    "hero_image": "https://images.pexels.com/photos/36747299/pexels-photo-36747299.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&w=2400",
    "offer_line": "One table, one evening, and nothing else to think about."
  }
}'

The body above shows 6 of 16 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/valentines-day-offer/variables. See the previewing guide, the rendering guide, or the OpenAPI spec.

Frequently asked questions

How do I customize the Valentine's Day Offer template?

Open the template in the Renderly editor and replace its 16 customizable fields (such as Location Label) 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, billed by the second. 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, 16 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.

More Social Media templates

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

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

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.
