Video production

AI talking-head video production

An AI presenter or your own footage, with a script that sounds like you.

Put a voice to your message.

Give a short explanation a clear speaker and structure. The presenter should support the message rather than introduce unsupported authority or a fictional endorsement.

What to send
  • Approved script or talking points
  • Presenter references and any required likeness permission
  • Pronunciation notes and a voice sample if requesting a clone
Materials guide
What you get
  • A finished presenter-led video
  • The agreed narration and subtitle treatment
  • A preview for checking wording, voice and appearance
How we make it

Solivo supports talking-head explainers as part of its video production service. Describe the presenter, message, voice and language in the brief, and provide permission and references when a real person or voice is involved.

  • Confirm whether the presenter is generated or based on supplied footage.
  • Shape a script that sounds natural when spoken.
  • Review pronunciation, captions and presentation before acceptance.

Is this video type right for the job?

Choosing talking-head video
DecisionWhat to consider
A good fitA short approved explanation where a presenter helps the viewer follow the message.
Choose another approachA documentary statement attributed to a real person without an authorized recording or agreed likeness and voice permissions.
Before orderingDefine one audience, a selected runtime and one action. Ask about feasibility if accuracy depends on footage you do not have.

Choose the purpose before the visual treatment. A short film can introduce one idea clearly, but adding several audiences or unrelated messages makes the scope harder to review. Decide what someone should understand after watching, then select material that supports that result.

A 30-second edit plan

This is an illustrative production outline, not a claim about a published client brief. The exact sequence follows your supplied material, approved facts and selected runtime.

Planning a short talking-head video
TimePurposePlanning direction
0–3 secondsOpening hookGive the speaker one direct opening sentence that identifies the viewer’s question.
3–10 secondsRecognizable subjectEstablish the real product, person or topic using approved references.
10–23 secondsUseful detailUse a short explanation with relevant supporting images, allowing time for each important term.
23–30 secondsNext actionLeave a readable closing frame with the approved name, offer and one destination.

Read the script aloud before treating these timings as a plan. Speech, demonstrations and visual pauses compete for the same runtime. A longer procedure or complicated explanation may need a longer video rather than faster cutting. The studio agrees the treatment before producing it; a sample sequence does not add extra deliverables to the order.

Real material and AI: divide the work clearly

Record a real founder or team member when their actual statement is essential. Generated presenters and consented likeness requests need their own agreed treatment and references.

You identify details that must stay fixed and the parts of the scene where there is creative freedom. The producer shapes the sequence and chooses appropriate generation or editing methods. AI may help create supporting imagery and motion; original footage and artwork provide the factual references. Check the moving preview because a recognizable first frame does not guarantee continuity, lettering or geometry throughout a shot.

What to send before production

  • Approved script or talking points
  • Presenter references and any required likeness permission
  • Pronunciation notes and a voice sample if requesting a clone

Name the final versions of each file and keep creative references separate from approved product or brand assets. Explain permissions, fixed wording and the preferred spoken and subtitle languages. If you only have a website or an incomplete folder, ask which additional files are needed before selecting a deadline.

Your time and review responsibilities

Client participation planning allowance, with existing materials ready
Your taskSuggested allowanceWhat to do
Brief and scope15–30 minutesChoose one audience, message, format and decision-maker.
Gather existing assets30–60 minutesOrganize approved files. Recording new footage takes additional time.
Review the direction15–30 minutesOptional storyboard review on standard orders.
Review the video15–30 minutesCheck the complete preview and consolidate timestamped notes.

Total: about 75–150 minutes across the project. These are planning allowances, not measured averages or promised time savings. New photography, recordings, internal approvals and additional feedback are extra.

Use one decision-maker to consolidate feedback. Listen to names, technical terms, emphasis and pauses. Check lip movement, speaker continuity and subtitle spelling. Give timestamped notes and describe the required correction rather than sending several conflicting versions of the brief. One free revision stays within the agreed scope; a new concept or extra output may need a separate agreement.

Questions before you start

Can you clone a voice or use a person's likeness?

These requests need suitable reference material and the necessary rights and consent. Describe your requirements first. A generated presenter must not be presented as a real customer's endorsement.
