🧠 How To Create Pro Videos in 5 Minutes with AI Avatars

5-Min AI Videos: No Camera Needed!

May 08, 2025

đź‘‹ Hello hello,

Lights, camera… ugh, who has time for action? Filming videos for your website, socials, or training sessions is a hassle—booking studios, wrangling actors, or staring awkwardly at your webcam. No thanks.

Video is king for engagement, conversions, and trust. But producing it? That’s usually a budget-busting, time-sucking ordeal.

What if you could skip the filming entirely and still get a professional video with a polished presenter speaking in any of 60+ languages? Enter Synthesia, the AI video generator that turns your script into a talking-head masterpiece using digital avatars.

Quick note: Synthesia is a paid tool starting at $18 a month on their yearly plan

No cameras. No actors. No stress.

In this week’s guide, we’ll show you how to create a marketing or training video using just:

• Synthesia’s AI platform
• A simple script
• Your avatar

Let’s get to it 👇

âś… The Complete AI Video Workflow

đź“ť Step 1: Write Your Script

• Log in to Synthesia or start a free trial at synthesia.io.
• Click “New Video” in the dashboard to begin.
• Paste your script into the script box, scene by scene. Synthesia auto-detects the script’s language. Keep it concise for a 1-2 minute video.

Why it matters: Your script is the heart of the video. Synthesia’s avatars deliver it with natural tone and gestures, so write like you talk—clear, punchy, and human.

🎭 Step 2: Pick Your Avatar & Customize

• Choose from Synthesia’s library of 200+ AI Stock avatars or create your own personal avatar (think: friendly exec, cool tech bro, or warm teacher vibes)
• Select your language (English, Spanish, Mandarin, you name it)
• Tweak the background, add your logo, or pick a music track

Why it matters: The avatar is your video’s star. Matching their vibe to your brand keeps things authentic without hiring a real presenter.

📽️ Step 3: Generate & Share As You’d Like

• Hit “Generate Video” and wait ~5 minutes
• Download your video or share directly to socials, your website, or podcast platforms
• Need edits? Tweak the script and regenerate.

Why it matters: You get a polished video ready for LinkedIn, Instagram, or your homepage without touching a camera.

🧠 Bonus: Go Global with One Click

Do you cater to a multilingual audience?
Synthesia’s AI can re-record your script in 140+ languages with perfect lip-sync.

• After generating, select a new language from the dropdown
• Regenerate, and boom—your avatar speaks fluent French, Japanese, or any other language of your choosing.

Perfect for global teams or diverse audiences.
