How to make good affirmation videos?

A typical YouTube affirmation video consists of 3 essential elements:

1. Stock footage related to the topic of the affirmation (typically motivating stock footage or neutral background).

2. On screen captions of the affirmation statements.

3. The affirmation audio (a narrator reading out the affirmations).

Getting the stock footage is easy. There are plenty of sites and video editing apps to download free stock videos.

Getting the text overlay should not be much of a problem either. Most of today’s video editors offer that functionality, sometimes even with AI speech to text capabilities.

Getting the affirmations audio can get a bit more tricky, since typically you can’t just grab it free from the Web.
