Why profile intro videos suits AI video

A short spoken hello from your own photo makes a profile more personal than a name and a headshot. Because talking photos run 4 or 8 seconds, they work best as a greeting, not a pitch.

What to put in your photo

  • A clear headshot, facing the camera
  • Even light on the face, with no hard shadows
  • A background that is plain or softly blurred

An example you can adapt

Example photo: A professional headshot of a man in a blue shirt, smiling, facing the camera.

Example voiceover: "Hi, I'm Daniel. I help small teams ship better products." That script is 10 words, so the talking photo runs 4 seconds and costs 1 credit in Full HD or 2 credits in 4K.

Sound and camera

  • Still, facing camera looks most professional
  • Choose a voice that fits you; you pick it
  • Horizontal 16:9 for a website; vertical 9:16 for a social story

Mistakes to avoid

  • Using someone else's photo without permission
  • Trying to fit a long pitch into 8 seconds, so keep it to one friendly line
