# Lip Sync Animation Generator (WITH AUDIO FILES)

There are use cases for many companies to use Audio files instead of Text-to-Speech. This is especially useful if you:

1. Already have a large content library of high quality voice overs
2. Want a specific voice that AI can't produce currently
3. Have a higher need for a realistic voice for your brand loyalty 

### Audio files vs AI generated Audio <a href="#cu1xpothtpzq" id="cu1xpothtpzq"></a>

| Slower turn around time                                     | Harder to add intonation. E.g. stressing on certain words or saying things with a particular emotion |

### How do you use Lipsync Animation generator in Gooey.AI? <a href="#id-7e9v4rbb98rg" id="id-7e9v4rbb98rg"></a>

#### Step 1 <a href="#id-3akkpf7ao60t" id="id-3akkpf7ao60t"></a>

Prep your avatar video or photograph. Here are some pointers when choosing your image:

1. Make sure the media is high-resolution
2. Ensure it clearly shows all the features of your talking head
3. The image must be cropped up till bust height
4. Use only human faces

#### Step 2 <a href="#id-5v4axqcj5yym" id="id-5v4axqcj5yym"></a>

Upload your audio file. This can be in .wav/.mp3 format.&#x20;

Note: Use shorter pieces of audio, to ensure high quality lipsync with low-latency and minimum distortion.
{% endhint %}

**Our workflow allows for multilingual lip-sync. Try our hindi example below:**

### Advanced Settings <a href="#bek5b9uth2re" id="bek5b9uth2re"></a>

#### Face Padding <a href="#id-7micoj491pkj" id="id-7micoj491pkj"></a>

You can use the “Face Padding” settings to improve the accuracy of the detected face in the image/video. This ensures that the Lip Sync video looks more realistic.
