🎥 HeyGen gives full control over AI avatars

The Rundown: HeyGen just launched AI Studio, a new video editing suite that gives users new control over AI avatars, with the ability to fine-tune vocal emphasis, hand gestures, and more for more polished and realistic generations.

The details:

A new Voice Director Mode lets users shape the avatar’s speech delivery with natural language commands like “whisper this part” or “sound more excited”.
Speech mirroring allows for uploads of an exact speaking style to transfer it to the avatars, preserving personal vocal quirks and timing consistencies.
Gesture Control brings natural motion to avatars, with creators able to upload existing footage for mirroring or link gestures to words directly within a script.
HeyGen also teased a series of upcoming new features, including camera control, generative B-roll, motion graphics, and prompt-based editing.

Why it matters: The future of video content creation is increasingly looking camera-less — with this latest round of upgrades taking avatars from more robotic talking heads to full-fledged actors with more granular control over motion and expressiveness. Video production is about to look a lot different in the AI age.
