10 useful applications of Voice Cloning
Voice Cloning is the ability to replicate your voice to be used in a text-to-speech system You record your voice, AI generates a model, and then you can have it read text. You need at least 30 minutes of conversation to build a good working model.
I have been using Descript's Overdub (voice cloning) feature for a digital product I am working on.
Feedback: It sounds just like me. It's impressive. If I have a qualm, it's a minor one—the voice cloning process does not mimic inflections or emotions. However, you can create variations of your voice with different tonalities.
1. Build a Podcast
Build an entire podcast show, either with your monologue or two AI voicecasters.
2. Build an Online Course
Create your presentation deck video, write up your script, set up a voice clone, and then create an entire course. If you want to go all out, pair it with digital avatar software like Animaze.
3. Streamline video game voice overs
I was playing an old-school adventure game the other day—"Star Trek: 25th Anniversary Edition".
The dialogue was done by the actors who played Kirk, Spock, and McCoy. Sadly, Leonard Nimoy and DeForest Kelly have passed away.
Wouldn't it be great if we could have a modern-day version of that game with new missions using the same voice actors? That could be possible with voice cloning.
4. Revive the voice of people in the past
Similar to #3 but other ideas: ads, newscasts, announcements, etc.
5. Use it dub over voice in movies or shows when actor is not available or under special circumstances
In the movie Top Gun: Maverick, Val Kilmer's voice was voice cloned and used in the film.
6. Narrate a documentary
Imagine a David Attenborough-style documentary on your favourite topic using your charming voice.
7. Build an IVR system
You could create an entire narration with a voice recognition system using your resplendent voice.
8. Streamline Post Production
The other possibility is to streamline the amount of voice work by using voice cloning or changes made in post-production.
9. Audiobooks
You could create a complete audiobook from a book you have already written. Give it away as a bonus.
10. Voice Chat Bot
Why be limited by text when responding to your customers? Offer voice narration using your immaculate voice.
