Learn how you can create a video with synthetic actors for TikTok, Instagram, or really any social
0:05
media. But before I do, consider subscribing to my YouTube channel where each week I'll be
0:09
uploading new videos on a variety of different topics. So thanks for your consideration and now
0:14
let's get to the video. So in my last video, I showed you how you can use a site called Jenny AI
0:20
to automatically generate a blog post about a specific topic. And now what I'm going to do is
0:26
to take that blog post that I generated and turn that into a video for Instagram. So the first
0:32
thing that we're going to need is a script. This again is the script that I was able to create
0:36
using Jenny AI. From here, the next step is to go to the website, Colossian.com. We are going to use
0:43
Colossian Creator Studio to create this video. Now Colossian does offer three different plans. As you
0:50
can see on the screen, one is free. So if you want to try it out, go ahead and sign up for a free
0:56
account. So once you're logged in, the first thing we have to do is to set our size. Now again, I want
1:01
this to be an Instagram post. So I'm going to go over to my settings and I'm going to switch this
1:07
to a one-to-one setting. As you can see, it's showing us this will be a square video on Instagram
1:11
Of course, you can use one of these other sizes as well or even create your own custom size if you
1:18
like. So the first thing I have to do is to go over to script and paste my script in this box
1:23
The next step is to choose my actor. So to change my actor, I can just click on this change button
1:29
and choose the actor that I want to use for this. Next, I'm going to go back to where it says script
1:36
and now I would like to preview the voice. So you can change the voice by clicking this button. I'm
1:42
going to choose English and then you can select the different voice style. And if you'd like
1:48
you can click on this button to listen to the script. Next, let's go ahead and pick a background
1:53
Now you can choose this green screen option or you can use one of these other colors
1:57
But what I like to do is to choose a stock photo. So I'm just going to do newsroom
2:08
Okay, let's try this one. And now what I'm going to do is to just kind of move my actor a little
2:12
bit off screen. So what I'd like to do is to put an image right over this actor's shoulder. So to
2:19
do that, I'm going to go to where it says media and I'm going to choose uploaded assets and I want
2:24
to choose the image that I created. Just have to resize it a bit and now I can put it right over
2:32
his shoulder. Next, I'm just going to add a shape. I'm going to put this little black box underneath
2:38
and I'm going to choose text and put my title right inside the box. Now I'm almost done
2:43
but the thing I'd like to do now is add some music. So I selected music. I'm going to choose
2:49
this track that says corporate and I believe I should just about be finished. Now what I want
2:54
to do is go ahead and preview this video. Okay, so now this is previewing and as you might be able
3:00
to tell on the screen, it's playing the audio and it's showing me what it looks like. But you can
3:04
see at the top, it's a preview without lip and body movements as well as gestures. That's because
3:09
that takes a little bit of processing so that instantly won't be there. But if it looks okay
3:14
and you think it sounds good, we are ready to generate. Okay, so I think this is good. I'm going
3:18
to go ahead and generate. Give this a title and in just a few minutes, my video should be processed
3:28
You can always check the status of your video on your generated videos page when you log in
3:34
Okay, so let's check this out. I just got this email and it's telling me that my video
3:38
is ready inside my account. So if I click watch this video, I'm now taken to a website and here
3:46
my video is. Now one of the things you'll notice, it will create a link that I can use to share
3:53
or I can just download the file, which is what I want to do because I want to share this on
3:57
Instagram. Okay, so here my video is. Google has been the go-to source for information and
4:03
research since the internet became mainstream. It's no surprise that the company dominates the
4:08
search engine market with 85% of global users using it in 2018. So I think that looks okay
4:15
Now this is not perfect. If you notice, you can see that my text, I should have raised it just
4:20
a little bit because it looks like it's kind of cut off. So I should have changed the font
4:24
made the size a little smaller and moved it up so I could then go in and fix that and regenerate
4:29
this video again. But if you're just looking for a quick way to create videos with synthetic actors
4:35
for social media, you may want to check out the website Colossian Creator where you can find
4:40
Colossian Studio. So thank you so much for watching this video. If you have questions
