What is an AI talking head video generator?
An AI talking head video generator is a tool that creates videos of a realistic presenter speaking your script directly to camera, without any filming. You upload a photo or choose a ready made avatar, add a script or audio, and the AI generates the video with natural lip sync, expressions, and gestures. Zoice generates talking head videos in up to 4K resolution across 170+ languages.
How do I make a talking head video with Zoice?
It takes four steps: upload a photo or pick a presenter from the avatar library, add a voice by typing a script, cloning your own voice, or uploading audio, choose your resolution and aspect ratio, and click generate. Most videos are ready in minutes, with no camera, studio, or editing skills required.
Do I need to film myself to create a talking head video?
No. Zoice creates your presenter from a single photo, or you can choose from a library of ready made avatars. There is no calibration recording, no consent video, and no waiting for your avatar to process, unlike custom avatar tools that require you to film training footage first.
What's the difference between a talking head video and a talking photo?
A talking head video is a presenter style video where a person speaks directly to camera, typically framed from the shoulders up, and is used for courses, explainers, ads, and social content. A talking photo is any still image made to speak, including pets, cartoons, and old family pictures. Zoice does both: this page covers presenter videos, and our AI talking photo generator covers everything else. Can I use my own voice?
Yes, in three ways. Clone your voice in Zoice from a short audio sample, upload a recording of yourself reading the script, or import an existing voice profile from ElevenLabs, LMNT, or Fish Audio using your own API key.
What languages does Zoice support?
Zoice supports 170+ languages and dialects. Write your script in any supported language, or create one video and localize it across markets. If you clone your voice, your videos in other languages still sound like you.
How long can a talking head video be?
Zoice supports videos up to 5 minutes and beyond, priced per minute with the exact credit cost shown before you generate. Many talking head tools cap videos at 30 to 90 seconds; Zoice is built for full length explainers, lessons, and updates.
How much does it cost to make a talking head video?
A 60 second 1080p talking head video costs $2.98, and each additional minute costs less, so a 5 minute video is $8.89. Every video shows its exact credit cost before you hit generate, and there are no watermarks on paid renders.
How is Zoice different from Synthesia or HeyGen?
Zoice creates your presenter from a single photo with no calibration recording, prices per video instead of monthly minute allowances, includes voice cloning on every plan, and outputs up to 4K. Synthesia and HeyGen are built around avatar libraries and subscription tiers, with custom avatars, advanced feratures gated behind recording sessions and higher plans.
Can I use talking head videos commercially?
Yes. Videos you generate with Zoice can be used for ads, courses, client work, YouTube monetization, and any other commercial purpose. You own the output, with no additional licensing fees.
