Create videos from a text prompt using HeyGen's Video Agent (POST /v3/video-agents). The default for most video requests — AI handles script, avatar, visuals, voiceover, and captions automatically. Use when: (1) Creating a video from a description or idea, (2) Generating explainer, demo, or marketing videos from a prompt, (3) Making a video without specifying exact avatars, voices, or scenes, (4) Quick video prototyping or drafts, (5) User says "make me a video" or "create a video about X". For precise control over specific avatars, exact scripts, or per-scene configuration, use the avatar-video skill instead.
