Create Talking Avatar Video

What it is

This block is an AI-powered tool that creates video clips featuring a talking avatar using the D-ID service.

What it does

It generates a video of a digital avatar speaking a given script, with customizable voice, presenter, and visual settings.

How it works

The block sends a request to the D-ID API with your specified parameters. It then regularly checks the status of the video creation process until it's complete or an error occurs.

Inputs

Input Description
API Key Your D-ID API key for authentication
Script Input The text you want the avatar to speak
Provider The voice provider to use (options: microsoft, elevenlabs, amazon)
Voice ID The specific voice to use for the avatar
Presenter ID The visual appearance of the avatar
Driver ID The animation style for the avatar
Result Format The file format of the final video (options: mp4, gif, wav)
Crop Type How the video should be cropped (options: wide, square, vertical)
Subtitles Whether to include subtitles in the video
SSML Whether the input script uses Speech Synthesis Markup Language
Max Polling Attempts Maximum number of times to check for video completion
Polling Interval Time to wait between each status check (in seconds)

Outputs

Output Description
Video URL The web address where you can access the completed video
Error A message explaining what went wrong if the video creation failed

Possible use case

A marketing team could use this block to create engaging video content for social media. They could input a script promoting a new product, select a friendly-looking avatar, and generate a video that explains the product's features in an appealing way.
