Creating 'Thought Leadership' Videos for LinkedIn with Invideo

Meta Description:

A 2025 guide on how to use Invideo to turn your thought leadership articles or ideas into professional videos for LinkedIn, using AI avatars.

Why This Use Case Matters in 2025

Thought leadership on LinkedIn is key to building your professional brand. But video gets far more engagement than text posts, and most executives don't have the time to film videos every day. As of late 2025, Invideo allows you to turn your text (an article or a script) into a high-quality, professional video using an AI presenter.

How Invideo Simplifies 'Thought Leadership' Videos

Invideo's platform is designed to create professional, spokesperson-led videos from a script.

Automated Generation (Text-to-Video)

You can paste the text from your LinkedIn article or a new script. The AI will then generate a complete video with a presenter and visuals.

AI-Generated Avatars

This is the core feature. You can generate a professional AI avatar (e.g., "a man in a suit," "a female tech executive") to be your presenter. This is ideal for executives who don't want to be on camera.

AI Script-to-Voice Performance

The AI avatar will perform your script with a "confident," "authoritative," or "professional" voiceover and perfect lip-sync. This ensures your message is delivered with polish every time.

Intuitive Refinement (Text-Based Editing)

After the first draft, you can use simple text commands: "Add a text overlay with the video title," "Add our company logo to the corner," or "Generate an animated chart' to illustrate this point."

Step-by-Step Workflow

Step 1: Write Your Script

Write your thought leadership script (or copy it from a blog post).

Step 2: Write the Prompt

Describe your presenter and paste the script.

  • Example Prompt: "Create a 60-second 'LinkedIn video.' Use a 'professional male AI avatar' in his 40s' in a 'modern office setting.' The tone is 'confident' and 'authoritative.' 'Here is his script:' '[Paste your thought leadership script here].' Add my name and title as a text overlay at the bottom."

Step 3: Refine with Text Commands

Use simple text commands to add B-roll.

  • "In 'scene 2,' 'when 'the 'script 'mentions ''AI 'trends,'' 'show 'an 'AI-generated 'clip 'of ''abstract 'data 'visualizations'' 'as 'B-roll."
  • "Add 'our 'logo 'to 'the 'top-right 'corner."
  • "Make 'the 'music 'a ''subtle, 'professional' 'electronic 'track."

Comparison: Traditional Workflow vs. Invideo

| Factor | Traditional Method | Invideo (2025) |

| :--- | :--- | :--- |

| Timeline | 1-2 hours (filming, editing, captions per video) | 5-10 minutes (copy, paste, generate, refine) |

| Cost | High (executive's time, editor's time) | Low (fixed subscription cost) |

| Skill Requirement | Professional (Video editor, on-camera talent) | Accessible for any executive or marketer |

| Revisions | Requires a reshoot if you misspeak | Instant; just edit the text script and regenerate |

Expert Tips for Better Results

  • Use Your Own Voice: For ultimate authenticity, use Invideo's voice cloning feature. You can have the professional AI avatar speak your script in your own, recognizable voice.
  • Use the "Script-to-Video" Feature: Pasting in your well-written article or script is the best workflow for this use case.
  • Keep it Professional: Use prompts for a "professional avatar," "modern office background," and "authoritative voice" to match the LinkedIn platform aesthetic.
