UNREAL MYSTERIES 5: Behind The Scenes / Making Of | Zap Andersson

Summary: I use HeyGen to make an internet "TV Show", which is kind of a parody of all these mystery shows.... it's all done just for fun, because I'm crazy. Check out the Christmas Special - a Post-Apocalyptic Musical too!

2025 will be the year of avatars | Thomas Hruska, Austria

Summary: The footage was filmed with a smartphone in the car. The audio was added in Haitian using a separate track recorded in the car to capture the authentic background noise. The grey bar is covering my daughter’s face to protect her privacy (post production).

Add AI Avatars to NotebookLM Video Podcast | Pascal Albert van Aken

Summary: I used Googles NotebookLm to create an audio Podcast. Then I seperated the male and the female voice. Next step was to add AI avatars from HeyGen. I used 2 for the male and 2 for the female avatar zo I could use multiple video angles. For the final edit in Davinci Resolve. Check out Pascal's tutorial on the new video podcast beta from HeyGen, too!

AI Rewind: 1984 Meets 2025 I Eric Harvey

Summary: Used Google's new Veo 2 to replicate / reimagine the iconic Apple "1984" commercial using AI tools throughout. Used Hey Gen to create "Big Brother" avatar from AI generated image and voice that was culled from the original commercial audio via ElevenLabs. Beyond all of the learning about new AI tools, this project really highlighted the fact that Hey Gen Avatars can be used in a multitude of interesting ways - beyond the standard "out of the box" marketing and training use cases.

Do Aliens Exist: A Scientific Discovery | Ken C.

Summary: Another installment of the podcast "Curiouser" with Giulia HeyGen. This podcast attempts to explain the possibility of Alien life in simple and engaging terms. Is first contact in our future? This podcast was created by feeding a ChatGPT report into NotebookLM and then the resulting podcast into HeyGen.
