AI Talking Head Video Generator
Create an AI talking head video from a portrait and script or recorded voice. Make presenter videos for explainers, training, lessons, and company updates.
How to Create an AI Talking Head Video
Start with a head-and-shoulders portrait
Upload a front-facing JPG, PNG, or WebP up to 10MB, or choose a presenter preset from the gallery of 160+ avatars. One visible face, steady lighting, and an uncluttered crop give the cleanest talking head.
Add a script or your own recording
Type a script and pick from 330+ voices in 20+ languages, or upload a consented recording as an MP3, WAV, or M4A file up to 50MB. Break complex explanations into short sections so pacing stays easy to review.
Keep each segment under a minute
Each video takes 3 to 60 seconds of audio, up to 20 seconds on the free plan. Longer lessons work best as a series of short talking head segments.
Review, then add context in your editor
Check pronunciation and lip sync, then download the video. Add captions, slides, or screen recordings in your editing tool when the topic needs more than a presenter.
AI Talking Head Video Generator Use Cases
Use an AI talking head wherever a presenter makes the message clearer and filming each update is not practical.
Explainer videos
Put a consistent presenter next to a concise explanation of one product, process, or idea.
Training modules
Turn approved learning scripts into presenter-led clips for repeatable internal education.
Course lessons
Create short instructor segments without recording the same camera setup for every lesson.
Company updates
Deliver focused project or policy updates with a straightforward talking-head format.
What to Check Before Creating an AI Talking Head Video
Single subject
Use one clearly visible speaker and avoid busy group photos or obstructed faces.
Portrait rights
Only animate portraits you own or are permitted to use for the intended audience.
Audio quality
Use clear speech with limited background noise and natural pauses between ideas.
Audio length
Each video takes 3 to 60 seconds of audio; the free plan allows up to 20 seconds. Keep each clip to one objective.
Resolution and price
Video costs 1 credit per second at 540p, or 2 credits per second at 720p on paid plans. New accounts get 30 free credits.
Full review
Confirm pronunciation, timing, visual artifacts, and factual accuracy before distribution.
How to Make an AI Talking Head Video
Three steps: portrait, voice, generate
- 01
Choose or upload a portrait
Pick a presenter preset or upload a front-facing head-and-shoulders photo you have permission to use.
- 02
Add the voice
Type a script and choose a voice, upload a recording, or record yourself in the browser.
- 03
Generate and download
Choose 540p or 720p, generate, review the lip sync, and download the video. A 10-second clip takes about three minutes at 540p.
Why Use an AI Talking Head Instead of Recording
- Update the script, keep the presenter: Change a line and generate the segment again instead of re-recording it.
- Type it or record it: Use text to speech with 330+ voices or your own consented recording.
- Built to slot into your edit: Download the clip and combine it with slides, captions, or screen recordings.
Update the script, keep the presenter
The same face stays consistent across a whole course, onboarding series, or set of updates.
Type it or record it
Both lead to the same lip-synced presenter video.
Built to slot into your edit
AvatarCraft AI generates the presenter, and your editor handles the rest.
AI Talking Head Video Generator FAQ
What is an AI talking head video?
A talking head video shows a presenter framed from the shoulders up, speaking to camera. An AI talking head generator creates one from a single portrait: the face is animated to match text to speech or your own recording.
Can I make a talking head from one photo?
Yes. Use a clear, front-facing portrait with one visible face for the most dependable composition.
Can I use my own voice?
Yes. Record or upload audio you have permission to use, or generate narration from a typed script.
What are talking head videos useful for?
They work well for explainers, lessons, onboarding, training, company updates, and short expert introductions.
Does AvatarCraft add slides and screen recordings?
No. It generates the talking presenter video. Combine the export with slides, captions, or screen recordings in a separate editor when needed.
Is the AI talking head generator free?

Starting 30 days after sign-up, accounts without a subscription are topped back up to 20 credits every 30 days.
How long can an AI talking head video be?
Each video uses 3 to 60 seconds of audio, and the free plan allows up to 20 seconds. Split longer lessons into short segments.
