Django: rendering forms without custom template

I have a form:

class ContactForm(forms.Form):
    subject = forms.CharField(max_length=100)
    message = forms.CharField()
    sender = forms.EmailField()
    cc_myself = forms.BooleanField(required=False)

And I want to use it with FormView

url(r'^megaform\/', FormView.as_view(form_class=ContactForm, success_url='/thanks/')),

Alas, I see the error:

TemplateResponseMixin requires either a definition of 'template_name' or an implementation of 'get_template_names()'

It says, that I haven't set the template to render my form with.

Is there a way to render the form without a custom template?

no there isn't, you must specify a template, that could be something as simple as

<form action="" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
    {{ form.as_p }}
    <input type="submit" value="send">
</form>
