What AI Layouts Are in Pictory

Layouts in Pictory are templated scene designs that control how text, captions, and visuals appear together. When you create a video, Pictory can apply layouts automatically based on the theme you choose, then you can refine them in the Layouts tab. Layout names like Default, Title, Emphasis, Quote, and List help you quickly pick the right structure for each scene.

Why Templated Layouts Save You Time

Instead of manually arranging text and visuals, layouts give you a starting point that already looks polished. They are applied automatically when you select a video theme such as Modern minimalist, Kinetic, Chic, Wanderlust, or Bulletin. You can then switch layouts per scene to highlight key points, quotes, or titles. This makes your video look professional without spending time on manual design.
