1. Confirm permissions and look for an original export
Check your rights first. Confirm that you own the footage or have permission to edit it, and review any platform terms, customer agreements, or internal brand rules that apply. Do not remove attribution or marks to misrepresent the source of content. Look for a clean source file. If you created the video in HeyGen, check the project’s export options and account plan before editing the rendered copy. HeyGen’s official help material explains that export settings can include a watermark option; the available controls may depend on your workflow and plan. Read the current HeyGen video help documentation before choosing a workaround. Keep an untouched master. Save the original file separately and work on a duplicate. Record the clip name, version, dimensions, and intended course module so the edited file can be traced back to its source.

Preparing Your HeyGen Training Clips for a Course Layout
Before placing HeyGen training clips into a learning management system, onboarding module, or branded course, take time to review the footage and prepare it for its new layout. A small visible platform mark can become distracting when a clip is cropped, resized, or placed beside course navigation and captions. The right workflow starts with permissions and source files, then checks the mark’s position, the background behind it, and the way the cleaned clip behaves across time. It also helps to separate visual cleanup from course design: first assess whether a mark can be removed appropriately, then standardize aspect ratio, titles, captions, and spacing. This checklist is intended for footage you own or are authorized to edit, and it prioritizes careful review over assuming that automated cleanup will always look natural.
