How do you make AI video for LinkedIn?
Keep it short (30–60 seconds), captioned (85% of LinkedIn views are muted), square 1:1 or vertical 9:16, and value-first. The strongest format is AI b-roll over a talking-head voiceover (yours or AI). Pure AI hype videos underperform — LinkedIn rewards expertise and specifics, not visual spectacle.
- 30–60s, captioned, square or vertical.
- Value > spectacle.
- AI b-roll + your real voiceover = winning format.
- Avoid hype prompts ('the future of work').
What LinkedIn actually rewards
The algorithm rewards dwell time and meaningful comments. Concrete, specific tips do well. Generic 'AI is changing everything' content does not. Use AI video as the visual layer behind a script that actually teaches something.
Format spec
Square (1080×1080) for in-feed, vertical (1080×1920) for LinkedIn Reels. Burned-in captions in a clean sans-serif at the bottom safe zone. Hook in the first 2 seconds.

Should I disclose AI use on LinkedIn?
