Make a voiceover or music

Voiceover and Music make audio without opening an edit. What they make lands in your Library, ready to add to any edit.

Voiceover

1. Open Tools → Voiceover.
2. Under What should it say?, write the script. Or write a rough idea, such as the product and who it’s for, and choose Write it for me. It speaks the language you write in.
3. Next: the voice, then pick who says it and choose Record it.

Pick from the list of voices, each with a short description. If you’ve given one of your character elements a voice, it’s listed under Your characters, so that character always sounds the same.

A voiceover is priced on the script’s length, by the minute; a short script pays its share, and the button shows the price. Scripts can be up to about four minutes long. It takes a few seconds a line. The voiceover comes back with its words timed, so captions and talking avatars made from it line up.

Music

1. Open Tools → Music, or open a video in your Library and choose Make music for it.
2. Under What should it sound like?, describe the mood, the instruments and the tempo, or tap one of the ideas. Say “no vocals” if you’ll talk over it.
3. Next: the length, choose how long it runs, then Make the track.

For the length, pick A length (15, 30 or 60 seconds), or As long as a video and pick a video from your Library, up to 60 seconds: the music is fitted to it.

A track is a flat price, whatever its length. It takes a minute or so and is safe for commercial use.

When it’s done

Listen to it on the finished screen, then Add to an edit, Download it or Make another. While it’s working you can close the tool, or choose Stop, and get the credits back. If it doesn’t work, your credits come back.
