One character image and your own message

Start with an image of one character and a short message you want them to say. You could create a welcome, a birthday greeting, or an introduction to a fictional world.

Write the spoken words directly. You do not need to describe camera movements or a new background to get started. The prepared card turns your image and message into a talking video.

How to make your character talk

  1. Sign in and open the card. Sign in to CNAPS Studio, then open Make Your Character Talk.
  2. Upload a character image. Choose a PNG, JPG, or WebP image of one character, with the face and mouth clearly visible.
  3. Write your message. Enter the words you want the character to say in the text field labeled “How should we chang it?”
  4. Run and review. Click Run. The card estimates about 3 minutes. Play the result with sound and check the speech, facial movement, and overall expression.
  5. Save your video. Download the result you want to keep.

A few tips for your first message

  • Choose a clear face. The card recommends one character facing forward, with the face and mouth clearly visible.
  • Keep the message focused. Start with one greeting or introduction. Read it aloud before running it to check that it sounds natural.
  • Review the whole clip. Check the character’s appearance and mouth movement throughout the video, as well as how the words are pronounced.
