UGC formats open with one question showing their defaults and what HeyGen will generate, plan every shot on one storyboard, ask for one approval that states how many clips approving will generate, and speak exactly the approved words. Short general clips still use the model tools directly. Hosted tools require the corresponding server deployment; the ZIP does not deploy server changes."
