Creating your own talking avatars is an exciting and innovative way to add a personal touch to your online presence or business. With the techniques we’ll be going over, you can create consistent characters with natural voices that have endless possibilities. Avatars can be used for many things like customer service and employee onboarding, but with some creativity, they can also be used for more exciting things like news anchoring or acting in commercials.

Show Off Your Style: Making a Custom Avatar Image That Stands Out

To begin, we’ll use MidJourney on Discord or any other text to image generator to create an initial image of our character. The image generated can be any character you like. It’s important to try different prompts until you find the one that best suits your character. This will generate a high-definition version of the image, which you can open in your browser and save to your computer by right-clicking on it and selecting “Save Image As”.

If you’re happy with using just one image for your character, you can go ahead and do so. However, for more variety, you can generate a few variations of your character. To do this, you’ll open the image again, right-click on it, and copy its address. Then, you’ll go back to the prompt bar and type forward slash, followed by “imagine”, and paste the image address. This will allow us to generate different variations of our character using the same image as the base. You can watch YouTube video on How to use Midjourney.

Create Scripts with AI Technology

To generate a script for our avatar, you can use chat GPT, but if you know what you want the avatar to say, you can come up with the script on our own.

Transform Your Words into Sound

After generating a script with Chat GPT, the next step is to generate audio. While the video generator can also create audio, it may not be of the highest quality. Therefore, I recommend using ElevenLabs for better audio quality. To generate audio, simply paste the script in script option and choose a voice from the options available. Once you find a voice you like, click “Generate” and download the audio.
