How to write a script for an AI voiceover
How to prepare text for a voiceover: write for the ear, choose a voice and a delivery style, set the speed, and check the cost, which depends on character count.
Step by step
Write for the ear
Use short sentences and plain words, and read the script aloud once. If it is awkward to say, it will be awkward to hear.
Proofread the exact text
Your text is spoken exactly as written, so fix typos and punctuation before you generate. The prompt assistant does not rewrite voiceover text, because that would change the words that are spoken.
Choose a voice
Pick a voice from the library. Try a short line first to hear how it reads.
Pick a delivery style
Choose a delivery style instead of describing the tone in the script: cheerful, excited, whispering, serious, sad, angry, sarcastic, and curious.
Set speed, stability and style
Speed ranges from 0.7x to 1.2x. Stability and style are sliders you can adjust.
Check the cost and generate
Voiceover is priced by character count: about 1 credits for 100 characters, 2 for 500 and 4 for 1000. The exact cost is shown before you generate.
Why cost follows length
The credit cost is based on the number of characters in your text, so trimming the script before you generate saves credits. Splitting a long script into sections also makes it easier to fix one line without regenerating all of it.
Pairing a voiceover with video
Video models can generate ambience and effects natively, but not dialogue. Generate the voiceover separately and combine it with your clip in your video editor.
