Add avatars when you convert presentations to Vids
You can already convert your Google Slides content into Google Vids, and use Gemini to generate scripts, voiceovers, and background music. Now, you can add a spokesperson to your videos using AI avatars when importing content from Slides. Avatars are dynamically inserted throughout the imported slides to make the generated Vid feel more relatable and engaging.
