Vehicle Listing Showcase
A 21-second 16:9 automotive listing video that auto-builds one MP4 per VIN from a dealer inventory feed: a full-bleed hero exterior, a three-angle gallery, a spec grid (output / 0-60 / engine), a big price + monthly-payment reveal, and a dealer call-to-action panel. Swap thirteen dynamic fields per vehicle - three photos, make/model, year + mileage, three spec values, price, monthly payment, dealer name, dealer phone, and dealer logo - to batch-render a unique showcase for every car on a nightly export or "new listing" webhook.

Frequently asked questions
How do I customize the Vehicle Listing Showcase template?
Open the template in the Renderly editor and replace its 13 customizable fields (such as Vehicle Image 1) 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, 13 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.

Dealership Sales Event
A 9:16 showroom offer card for auto dealer groups - five hard-cut frames in the order a buyer on the forecourt needs them: the event, the offer, the rate, the deadline, the address. Pure black, pure white and deal red trade grounds frame to frame, and a full-bleed rail at y=1704 carries the dates and kicker on every single frame, so any one frame hands over both the deal and its expiry. 22 seconds at 1080×1920, 30fps, set in Archivo Black, Geist and JetBrains Mono. Thirteen dynamic fields split across two axes: the store axis (dealer_name, dealer_address, dealer_phone) and the campaign axis (event_name, event_kicker, event_dates, event_hook, offer_value, offer_label, finance_rate, finance_terms, disclaimer, hero_image) - a forty-store group on one manufacturer programme is forty renders off one spreadsheet row each, with no layout moving between them.
Price Drop Alert
Price Drop Alert is a square e-commerce lifecycle card that fires off a price-change webhook matched against browse history — the "the thing you were watching just got cheaper" moment, rendered one card per watcher straight off the product feed. 27 seconds, 1:1 (1080×1080), 30fps, four scenes on a bone → ink → bone → forest ground rhythm: the personalised alert, the product on the one dark frame in the piece (price deliberately withheld), the payoff — old price struck in signal red beside the new price at 176px on a single shared baseline, with the saving in a forest band bled to the bottom edge — and a receipt row plus CTA pill. Eleven dynamic fields swap per render: customer_first_name, brand_name, product_image, product_name, product_detail, product_price_was, product_price, message_line, status_note, cta_label and cta_url; the minimum viable set is five (product_image, product_name, product_price, cta_label, cta_url), everything else has a documented fallback. Type is Instrument Serif / Geist / JetBrains Mono, and it is a direct sibling of the Abandoned Cart Nudge template, sharing its palette, 84px measure and ten-field product-feed contract.
Post-Purchase Thank You + Review Request
A 31-second 9:16 (1080x1920) follow-up video for the week after delivery, built as a sibling of the Batch H abandoned-cart template and driven by the same product feed. Its whole argument is the order of the beats: thank the customer by name on bone, mark the elapsed time over a full-bleed product hero on ink, then flood the centre of the video with forest green for the longest scene — a ruled ledger of three genuinely useful care tips — and only after 19 seconds of being useful does the ask arrive, on a bare bone page, in one sentence, with no stars and no incentive. It closes on ink with a bone CTA pill, the item row as a receipt, and an italic sign-off. Thirteen dynamic fields are swapped per render: customer_first_name, brand_name, product_image (one photo at three sizes — 220px card thumb, 1080x970 bleeding hero, 150px item thumb), product_name, product_detail, product_price, message_line, status_note, care_tip_one, care_tip_two, care_tip_three, cta_label and cta_url. Type is Instrument Serif over Geist over JetBrains Mono at fixed sizes, with an 84px measure and a y=96 furniture row on every scene.
