Natural lip-sync from one photo
Drive a still portrait with any audio and get mouth shapes, micro-expressions and head motion that actually read as a human talking — not a puppet.

From portrait to talking head in four steps
- Step 1
Upload a face
Drop in a clean front-facing portrait — a real photo, a generated character, or an avatar from your library. Eyes forward, mouth visible.
- Step 2
Write the script
Type what they should say, or upload your own voice clip. Edit the line as many times as you want before committing to a render.
- Step 3
Pick the voice
Choose a narrator voice and tone — calm, energetic, warm, authoritative — or bring your own audio for full creative control.
- Step 4
Render the talking clip
The studio synthesizes speech, syncs the lips and lands the finished MP4 on your project timeline, ready to caption and ship.

FAQ
What kind of photo works best?
One clean front-facing portrait with the eyes forward and the mouth visible — a photo, a generated character, or an avatar from your library.
Can I use my own voice instead of a generated one?
Yes. Upload an audio clip and it overrides the script — the studio syncs the lips to your recording instead of synthesizing speech.
How long can a talking clip be?
Up to 60 seconds per render.
Will it work for non-English scripts?
Yes. Run the same portrait through a script in any language, or upload audio in that language.
What about commercial rights and likeness?
Only upload a face you have the right to use. You own what you generate, under Pika's terms.
Where does the finished clip end up?
In your library as a timeline-ready MP4 — download it, save it to a project, or publish it.
