Step-by-Step Guide to Using Text-to-Speech:
Adding Text:
First you have to add text by either typing or pasting text that was copied from another source. To do this, first tap on the “Text” button in the edit screen. There you will see the cursor and the keyboard appear for you to type. Now you can highlight the text by swiping across them and use the formatting options available. These include bolding, italic, color changes, alignment, font style and many more.
Accessing Text-to-Speech:
Once you highlight the text typed in the editing screen, you will see the formatting options appear. Among them, you can find the “Text-to-Speech” option. This icon shows “Aa” in a message box and its name is shown underneath it. You can easily find the button. After that make sure you select the language of the speech. Almost all the popular languages are available in the app for you to select from.
Choosing Your Voice:
Now you must select one among the available voices of the app. There are both male and female voices plus baby voices. You will find fantasy, horror and thrilling voices as well. Some of these voices are Jessie, Chill Girl, Opera, Open Mic, Cozy, classic Electric, Energetic Male, Serious Female, etc. You can try each of them to your words and see how they sound before applying.
Previewing and Adjusting:
When you tap on a voice name, you can preview it by playing it using the “Play” button shown on top. This way, listen and find the best suit for your work. After that, you can adjust the speed and volume of speech from the adjusting options. If you think you need any punctuations to be pronounced, you can add them even in this stage while listening to the voice. Once you are sure of the editing, you can save it by tapping on the tick mark at the right-top. Finally press on the “Generate Video” button so that the final video will be saved.
Additional Tips and Tricks:
Matching Voice to Content:
Choosing voice is a selection that should be made wisely. Sometimes the voice could be attractive, but might not suit your video content. For example, if you are generating a marketing video, an angry female voice will not be suitable at all. In such a case, a young lady’s voice or a strong male voice will be a benefit. But on the other hand, if you are making an inspirational video, you may add an Open Mic voice to sound like you are speaking to a mic.
Adding Pauses and Emphasis:
If you think that the speech should pause or change style at some points, you can adjust it. This is by adding commas, periods, question marks, exclamation marks, etc. to the typed text. When you do this, the voice will pronounce the sentence according to those punctuations. This can be identified when you are previewing the speech with different voices. You can adjust the typed text while listening even, which is very easy. The voice you chose, will surely support these pauses and punctuation you added. The accent and language used will also affect the ways that the speech sounds. You can have more support when you adjust the speed.
Combining with Background Music:
Perhaps, you will have background music to the video already. In such cases, it is noisy when you add speech. To help you with this disturbance you can use a trick lick lowering the music volume when the speech starts playing. When doing this, also make sure that the voice you chose also matches with the music you have included. Because they are very different, the audience will be uneasy when they play it. This fact is important in all kinds of videos like, dancing, marketing, entertainment, quotes, inspirational, etc.
