Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about animating talking photos

What type of photos should I upload?

Use clear, front-facing portraits with the subject looking toward the camera. Good lighting helps the AI animate natural expressions.

How long can my audio clip be?

Keep your voice clip under 25 seconds. Short, clear audio results in better lip-sync and faster processing.

Can I add subtitles to the video?

Yes! Subtitles are enabled by default. Toggle them off if you want a clean video without captions.

What can I use AI talking photos for?

Talking photos are perfect for social media content (Instagram Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts), business presentations, educational videos, memorial tributes, marketing campaigns, personalized greeting cards, animated avatars, storytelling projects, and entertainment. They're also great for bringing historical figures to life, creating virtual spokespeople, or making fun videos with friends and family photos. The possibilities are endless!

How accurate is the lip-sync technology?

Our AI uses advanced deep learning algorithms to create highly realistic lip-sync animations. The technology analyzes phonemes (speech sounds) from your audio and generates corresponding natural mouth movements, facial expressions, and subtle head motions. For best results, use clear front-facing portraits with good lighting and high-quality audio. The AI performs exceptionally well with human speech, songs, and narration in multiple languages.
