Talking presenters, motion transfer, replacing a character or face in footage, and product ads.

Where
Avatar Studio
Cost
From 1 credit a second (face swap) to 58 (Genjutsu 1080p)

Avatar Studio works on people in footage. Use it when you need a performance a text prompt can't give you, or to fix a character in a shot that's otherwise perfect.

Pick the right tab

TabWhat it doesTypical use
AvatarA portrait speaks a script or an audio filePresenters, explainer videos
Motion transferA character image performs the motion from a driving videoAct the move yourself, then cast it
Character replaceThe person becomes your character: face, hair, body and wardrobeSwap a stand-in for your cast element
Face swapOnly the face changesFix a face that drifted in one take
Product adA short ad from a product photoCommercials, social posts

Character replace in practice

  1. Upload the Video (up to 60 seconds) and a Character image with the face and outfit clear. More views helps.
  2. If there are several people, say who in Instruction: "replace the man on the right".
  3. Tick the permission box, then Replace character.

Engine chooses the model. Genjutsu (Higgsfield) can also move the shot to a new Location or Style; Genjutsu Light is faster and keeps the original audio.

Avatar in practice

Upload a Portrait, write What they say (or use an Audio file), pick OmniHuman 1.5 (up to 35 seconds) or Kling Avatar (up to 60), and Generate. It takes 2–6 minutes.

Consent

Character replace and Face swap ask you to confirm the person is you or has given permission. Take that seriously: never use someone's likeness without it.
