Whether it's a friendly greeting, a raised hand, or a directional gesture, this feature offers a wide range of expressive possibilities when creating AI videos using stock Studios Avatars.
Important: This feature does not work on AI Generated Avatar, Video Avatar, or Photo Avatar. It is only available for certain stock avatars in AI Studios (you will see a gesture tag).
If you would like to create a custom avatar with customizable gestures, please contact our team to discuss creating an Exclusive Studio Avatar (enterprise plan only).
How to Add Gesture Markers In-Script in AI Studios
1. Choose an AI Avatar with Gesture Support
Gestures are available for select AI Avatars.
Open the Avatar menu in the editor and select the AI Avatars tab. Click the Filter icon, turn on Avatar with AI gestures, and click Apply.
The avatar list will then show only avatars that support AI gestures. Select the avatar you want to use.
More gesture-capable Studio Avatars will be added in future updates.
2. Add a Gesture Marker to Your Script
Click into your script at the point where you want the gesture to occur. Then, click the waving hand icon labeled "Gesture" at the bottom-left corner of the text editor.
A small blue gesture marker will be inserted into the script.
3. Choose a Gesture
Click on the gesture marker you just added where a list of gesture options will appear. Select the one you want, and it will be applied at that point in the video.
Note: Leave at least 3-4 words between multiple gesture markers. If gesture markers are placed too closely, the following gestures may not initiate.
