iClone 8 - AI Studio - Reallusion AI Talking Actor

Hi and welcome to PolyClay 3D, [music] the definitive channel for all things 3D featuring animation shorts, tutorials, tips, tricks, and all sorts of 3D madness . This is the channel to get you started . Hi everyone, this is Marty from PolyClay 3D . So, let's have a look today at the new release from Reallusion, which is the new AI studio , which is still in beta, I think . This release is the first sort of public release, early access . So, for users of iClone and Character Creator, you can get free access to their introductory plan, their starter plan . It gives you 1,100 credits, and I'm sure they won't last 5 minutes . But, anyway, I thought I'd take a look at it cuz it's free to get you going and just to see what the results were like . So, the first thing I tried was this single talking actor . And what you do is . As you can see, I've got an image there . That's a preview. You hover over it. If you want to change it, of course, you can delete it . And then you can replace it . So, that was the image that I used . And first of all, I just put some speech text in . So, you create this text first, which I didn't have . And I used one of the presets . And once I did the generation of that using this generate voice function here , which costs five credits, I just put some the introductory comments in that you saw in the preview . And I generated the voice . And that created a reference audio file, which I dragged in to create the final single talking actor release . And so, once you've generated the voice you don't sort of need to recreate it for the video generation . You can drag in the reference audio then, which is what I did . As you can see there, it references to my hard drive file . If you want to know where it is, you can just click here, right click, find file . And then I generated the voice using this text prompt . And once I'd done that, as I said, I generated a file five credits . And then I brought that reference audio in to generate the video
