How to create a Motion Persona?

A Motion Persona is an AI-generated, video-ready character—designed to mimic real human behaviors and expressions—with pre-defined motion and lip-sync animation driven by your script and prompts.

  • Use a sample audio – Select from existing audio samples provided.
  • Generate your audio – Create a new audio using the platform’s built-in voice generation tools.

  1. Select Appearance  – This will be the actor featured in the UGC video you are creating.

  • Click Appearance button

Here, you’ll need to choose your avatar’s gender, provide a description of how the avatar should appear, and enter a background description that sets the scene for your avatar.

MOTION PERSONA - CONTROL MOVEMENT


Purpose: To guide the motion persona’s physical behavior during video renders or live interactions, including head, facial, and gesture movements.


For example:

A woman gracefully waves her hair and runs her fingers through it, gently brushing it back. She is in motion, walking from left to right across the frame. Her movement is smooth and confident, with natural body flow. As she moves, her hair follows the motion, creating a dynamic and elegant visual. Her expression is relaxed, possibly with a soft smile, suggesting ease or confidence.

  • Click Preview Persona

NOTE: For motion personas, movements and animations will only be visible after the video has been generated. You won’t see the motion in the preview or setup stage.


6. Once done with the audio selection and appearance, click the Generate button to proceed.

  1. Enter a name for your video and select the resolution. You can also enable captioning by ticking the caption box and choosing the position of the caption.

8. Click the Generate button to create your video
