Vyond Product Releases

Do you have specific actions you need your characters to play out? Vyond’s new AI-powered ‘Video to action’ feature allows you to dictate your characters’ movements exactly the way you want. Here’s how:

Creating your own action

First, film the action. Below are some tips for preparing your footage for best results:

• Set up your camera on a tripod to keep the video steady
• Film only one person at a time, with their face towards the camera
• Include the entire body in the frame
• Avoid wearing loose-fitting clothes so that the action can capture limbs, hands and feet more easily
• Save the video in mp4 format, keep it under ten seconds and no bigger than 100 MB

Generating your custom action

Inside Vyond Studio, add a Contemporary character to the stage and open the ‘Action’ toolbox. There, select to ‘Generate action’ and upload your action video footage. Once your custom action is ready, you can apply it to your character.

Adding assets to a collection

In the content panel, find the item you wish to add to a collection. Simply right-click the item. From there, click ‘Add to Collection’. Collections can be found under the ‘Library’ tab in the content panel. You can also add to a collection from the stage and timeline.

Vyond now supports open captions —also known as burn-in captions— to complement our recently released closed caption feature.

Generating or uploading captions

In Vyond Studio click on the ‘Video Settings’ icon, and select to generate or upload subtitles or captions in the ‘Source’ dropdown menu and click ‘Save’. Now, your video will play with open captions in preview and when downloaded.

If you make changes to your video after adding open captions, update your source file to ensure that the captions are still accurate.

Make your videos accessible to the widest possible audience with Vyond’s new open captions feature today!
