How to Make a Talking Video From a Photo (AI Lip Sync)
To make a talking video from a photo, upload a clear front-facing portrait to an AI lip-sync tool and give it the audio — a voice clip or a text-to-speech script. It animates the mouth to match the words and returns a talking-head clip in about a minute. No camera, actor, or studio needed.
What AI lip sync does
AI lip sync (also called a "talking photo") drives a still portrait's mouth and subtle facial motion from audio, so a single image appears to speak. It is the fastest way to make spokesperson clips, UGC-style ads, or a recurring brand presenter without filming a person.
Step by step
1) Upload a clear front-facing portrait (JPG or PNG). 2) Add the voice — record a clip or paste a script for text-to-speech. 3) Generate; the tool syncs the mouth to the audio. 4) Download the clip in the aspect ratio you need (9:16 for Reels/TikTok).
Choosing a good source portrait
Use a front-facing photo with the whole face visible, even lighting, a neutral or slightly closed mouth, and nothing covering the jaw. Higher resolution and a plain background give the cleanest, most natural mouth movement.
Ways sellers & creators use it
Product spokespersons that explain a feature, UGC-style testimonial ads, a consistent brand presenter across many videos, and multilingual versions of the same clip by swapping the script. Pair it with image-to-video for B-roll and you can assemble a full ad from stills.
Try it yourself
