Voiceover or talking photo?
- Voiceover: a narrator speaks over your photo video. Up to 50 words, up to 20 seconds
- Talking photo: the face in your photo speaks, with lip-sync. 4 or 8 seconds, up to about 20 words
Writing the script
Open with a hook, make one point and end with what to do next. About two and a half words make a second, so 50 words is a 20 second video.
The voice
Choose a male or female voice. The voice is AI-generated. A voiceover video carries the voice only, so nothing competes with your words.
Good to know
