Quick answer

Prompts for AI images and video clips go to a third-party model provider whose moderation decides; Synthesia support cannot override it. Rephrase with general language and add context.

Most likely fix: Rephrase the prompt

How to fix it

Try these in order — the most common fix is first.

  1. 1. Rephrase the prompt

    1. Describe appearance instead of naming a person, and a style instead of a brand
    Did this fix it?
  2. 2. Add context

    1. Frame it, for example as an educational illustration
    Did this fix it?
  3. 3. Check the provider policy

    1. Google, OpenAI or Anthropic policies apply depending on the model
    Did this fix it?
  4. 4. Expect a second check

    1. The finished video is moderated again on generation
    Did this fix it?
