Bring still photos to life with accurate, expressive lip sync—directly in your browser. This template was built with Magic Hour’s Lip Sync product and is fully remixable, so you can swap in your own face, voice, and script in minutes.

What this template does

This template turns a static face photo into a short talking video that:

  • Moves its mouth in precise sync with your audio
  • Preserves facial identity and style
  • Supports natural head motion and eye blinks for realism
  • Works for social, product explainers, or quick talking-head content

Under the hood, it uses Magic Hour’s AI talking photo–style pipeline and Lip Sync models to align audio phonemes with realistic mouth shapes, so speech feels convincing rather than “flappy” or robotic.

How to remix this template in Magic Hour

You can recreate or customize this template using the Lip Sync tool:

  1. Open Lip Sync
    Go to Lip Sync. This is the same product used to create this template.

  2. Upload your face image

    • Use a clear, front-facing photo with good lighting
    • Avoid heavy filters or strong motion blur
    • For consistent branding, use a headshot from the same shoot as your other content (you can also generate one with the AI headshot generator)

  3. Add or generate audio
    You have options for the voice track:

    • Upload an existing voiceover (podcast clips, product demos, webinars)
    • Record a quick script directly
    • Generate a voice with AI voice generator
    • Clone your own voice using AI voice cloner for on-brand, scalable talking-head videos

  4. Generate the talking video

    • Preview the alignment between audio and mouth movements
    • Adjust your script or re-upload audio if needed
    • Render and download your video for use on social, landing pages, ads, or internal docs

  5. Optional: Chain with other Magic Hour tools
    After you generate your lip-synced clip, you can:

How to build more advanced versions

To extend this template, combine Lip Sync with other Magic Hour products:

1. Create or refine the face

These steps help the lip-sync model track facial landmarks more reliably, improving realism.

2. Design the avatar’s style and context

Before lip sync, you can define a strong visual identity:

Export the final face image, then bring it into Lip Sync for animation.

3. Add voice and language variants

To scale content without re-recording:

You can then pair each audio variant with the same face in Lip Sync to rapidly generate localized or personalized talking clips.

4. Turn talking photos into richer video

Once you have lip-sync clips, you can build more dynamic pieces:

Tips for better lip sync quality

To get results similar to or better than this template:

  • Start with a strong face image

  • Use clean audio

    • Minimize background noise and reverb
    • Speak clearly and avoid rushing
    • If using synthetic voices, choose ones with clear diction (via AI voice generator)

  • Match duration and pacing

    • Keep scripts concise for short social clips
    • If you’re batch-generating, standardize script length for consistent timing across outputs

  • Test multiple variants

    • Try several face photos (different angles, expressions)
    • Experiment with different voices and speaking speeds
    • For campaigns, run quick A/B tests by swapping only the audio while keeping the same face
