From a photo to a talking video

A real example made on Gulf Picasso with Pro quality: one photo and one audio file in Tunisian dialect. Turn the sound on to hear it.

أخطر حاجة تنجم تسرّع تجاعيد البشرة موش العمر. برشا ناس يركزوا على الكريمات، أما ينساو أهم حاجة داخل الجسم. الدراسات تقول إنه ستريس ينجم يستهلك مضادات الأكسدة داخل جسمك.
The talking video

Where AI lip sync helps your business

A speaking face holds attention longer than a still image, and you don't need to film anyone.

    Have a character present your offer directly to the viewer, in your market's language.

  • Brand mascots

    Give your mascot or cartoon character a voice for campaigns and social posts.

  • Reels and stories

    Make short talking clips for Instagram, Snapchat and TikTok without appearing on camera.

When AI lip sync makes sense

It's fast for spoken content. Some videos still need a real shoot.

A good fit for

  • Short messages of up to 30 seconds
  • Mascots and generated characters
  • Content you publish often in more than one language or dialect
  • Accounts where you prefer not to appear on camera

Better filmed for real

  • Long videos and full presentations
  • Scenes where the person walks and moves around
  • Using a real person's face without their permission

How to get a natural result

Three things make the biggest difference.

  • 01

    Use a clear face

    Pick a photo where the face is visible, facing the camera and well lit.

  • 02

    Keep it short

    One idea in one clip works best. For longer messages, join clips in the video editor.

  • 03

    Match voice and character

    Choose a voice that fits the character's age and personality, and write the way people speak.
