Create a Talking Ai Avatar for Free
Howto & Style
Introduction
Are you interested in creating a human-like AI avatar that can read text in under five minutes? If so, you’re in luck! With Canva’s new AI tools, you can design an AI presenter completely for free. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to create your very own talking AI avatar.
Step 1: Create a Canva Account
First, if you don't have a Canva account, you will need to sign up. Canva has been around for quite some time, but it now features a variety of cool AI tools that are entirely free to use. You can find a registration link in the description of your video platform.
Step 2: Access the AI Tool
Once you have created your account, navigate to the left side of the Canva homepage and select "Create Apps." From here, you will see various options. Look for an app called DidAI Presenter. If it isn't visible immediately, you can search for it.
Step 3: Design Your Video
After selecting DidAI Presenter, choose a new design. You may have to create a separate account for DidAI, but don’t worry—there are plenty of free credits available to you at this stage. Next, opt for the video option, as this will generate a talking-head video.
Select Your Presenter
A variety of presenters will appear on the left side of the page. Choose the avatar that appeals to you based on its appearance. Next, input your script in the designated text box. If you don't have a script ready, you can use tools like ChatGPT to help you write one.
Language and Voice Selection
Select your desired language, and then choose a voice for your avatar. The voice is independent of your video avatar, which allows you to select a voice that matches your chosen presenter. You can also pick the style of the voice; options include cheerful, friendly, or even an assistant style.
Generate the Video
After previewing the speech to ensure it sounds good, click to generate your avatar video. The credits for this service come from DidAI, but you can utilize a generous amount of free credits without spending any money right away.
Editing Your Video
Once the video is created, it will be added to your Canva workspace. You have the option to resize and reposition the avatar. If you want to include an additional video in the background, simply upload your desired video file to Canva, right-click, and select "Send to Back" to layer it.
Alternatively, you can explore Canva’s backgrounds to choose a suitable design. There are various elements available that you can add to your video for further customization.
Step 4: Background Music and Final Touches
Canva also allows you to add background music. Simply navigate to the audio tab, and you'll find a range of free music options to suit your video’s style. Adjust the volume settings to ensure the music plays softly in the background.
You can also create multiple pages in your project. If your script extends beyond the character limit, just add a new page, generate another avatar, and continue assembling your project.
Preview and Download
After everything looks good, click on preview to watch your entire video. Once you are satisfied, click on share, and then select download. The recommended format is MP4 video at 1080p quality. After your download is complete, you can upload your new creation anywhere, including websites and platforms like YouTube.
The possibilities for creating realistic, human-like avatars are only going to improve from here. Try it out and let your creativity flow!
