Avatar Video from a Photo

The American Movie Company, led by Bill Milling, is using advanced AI to create hyper-realistic avatars. There are two main types:

  1. Stock Avatars – Prebuilt from actors with various looks and voices.

  2. Custom Avatars – Created from the client’s image, voice, and gestures.

Why a Custom Avatar?

  • A one-time video/audio session (1–2 hrs) captures your likeness.

  • From this, unlimited videos can be generated with your avatar speaking any script.

  • Your avatar can speak in 70 languages, maintaining your real voice and mannerisms.

  • The 3D video avatar can be created from a still photo.

Pricing (estimates):

  • Post-production (first video): $2,500

  • Additional avatar videos: $1,500 each

  • Extra language versions: $350

  • Social media posting available

Bottom Line:

A single photo creates a powerful, reusable AI avatar for unlimited multilingual video production. The only difference with a stock avatar is that it’s not exclusive to the client, but it’s more budget-friendly.
