Feedback & Requests

Issue: Add motion to photo avatar creates a 5 sec motion, though action text states 10 seconds. 

I sent this issue to tech support at one time and got the reply that once I used it in a video creation scenario the motion would extend to 10 seconds. However, I have attempted this numerous times and continue to get only a 5 second clip that begins to reverse the motion after 5 seconds running. 

I generally am making 30 to 40 second short videos for product promotion on social media and the issue with the motion reversing (people walking backwards, traffic reversing forward movement, hand movements repeated, etc.) makes it very difficult to obtain continuity, as even if I generate multiple motion avatars using the same prompts, the background scene is never the exact same.  All of my avatars are prompt generated.

I see the new editor will allow the use of uploaded scenes so perhaps this will eliminate some of the issue, but the avatar itself still loops hand movements, body movements and gestures at the 5 second mark. Perhaps the tech team could find a way to extend the motion feature. I know I can use external tools to create scenes but I've experimented with moving camera angles within the motions (pan left/right, sweeps, pull focus, etc.) and HeyGen does remarkably well at this but the time limitation really messes with the overall effect. It would be wonderful to be able to use HeyGen for the entire scene instead of generating scenes with external tools. Also I've tried this with static backgrounds removing the avatar background and it's a bit wispy around the edges, so not exactly perfect on moving avatars.  Any thoughts?
