  • How to Create Consistent AI Voices with Text Prompts (No Tools Required)

    Creating consistent voices for your characters helps keep your audience engaged in the story of your AI movie. While the best results often require using multiple tools and additional editing, sometimes you want a method that’s “close enough” and can be done while generating your videos. To be clear, this method does not result in perfect results every time, but it should help you get more consistent voices simply by adding a few things to your prompt.

    To create consistent character voices across multiple shots in AI video, use this format:

    He/She says in the voice of a [AGE] [GENDER], [TIMBRE], [TONE], [PACING]: ‘dialogue

    Examples of AI voice prompts:

    She says in the voice of a middle-aged woman, warm and measured, gentle tone, deliberate pacing: “Thanks for meeting me here.”

    He says in the voice of a weathered middle-aged man, deep and gravelly, matter-of-fact tone, slow pacing: “I knew something was wrong.”

    She says in the voice of a young woman, sharp and clear, dropping to urgent whisper, faster pacing: “No one can know about this.”

    Cut and paste the Five Essential Elements for AI Voice Prompts listed below into your favorite AI assistant (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Grok, etc). Then describe the voice or upload an image of the character and ask for a voice prompt. Iterate and refine the prompt. Have fun making your AI film!

    The Five Essential Elements for AI Voice Prompts:

    1. AGE – Approximate age range
      • Examples: young, middle-aged, elderly, teenage, mature
    2. GENDER – Voice register
      • Examples: man, woman, boy, girl
    3. TIMBRE – The physical quality of the voice
      • Examples: deep gentle voice, warm measured voice, sharp clear voice, bright voice, gravelly voice, smooth voice
    4. TONE – The emotional quality or attitude
      • Examples: gentle tone, clinical tone, matter-of-fact tone, urgent whisper, concerned tone, confident tone
    5. PACING – How fast or slow they speak
      • Examples: slow thoughtful pacing, deliberate pacing, moderate pacing, faster pacing, measured pacing

    Pro Tips:

    • Keep AGE, GENDER, and TIMBRE the same across all shots for each character (this is their “voice signature”)
    • Vary TONE and PACING based on emotion (angry = faster, sad = slower, etc.)
    • Be specific – “middle-aged woman, warm and measured” is better than just “woman, nice”
    • Use 2-4 descriptors total after age/gender – more can confuse the AI

    Quick Reference:

    Character signature: [age] [gender], [timbre]
    Current emotion: [tone], [pacing]
    Complete tag: in the voice of a [age] [gender], [timbre], [tone], [pacing]

  • Free AI Filmmaking Course: Kling, Veo, Nano Banana

    Making a cinematic movie is more than just typing a prompt and letting AI do all the work. It involves combining multiple steps into a cohesive workflow. This free AI mini-course shows you how to create a cinematic short film using Kling and Veo.

    First, let’s watch the movie you’ll learn how to make “Discarded Companion,” created using Kling 01, Veo 3.1, and ElevenLabs.

    Learn the tools: Kling O1, Nano Banana, Google Flow

    Before making “Discarded Companion,” I started comparing Kling O1 to Google Flow. Kling O1 is an all-in-one approach to using elements to create images and video. Google Flow combines Veo and Nano Banana (image generation and editing) into one easy to use tool.

    In this discovery process, I realized the capabilities of the tools opened up the possibilities for even more realistic and engaging storytelling. If you don’t know how to use Kling or Google Flow, this should set you off on the right path to knowing the essentials.

    My in-depth AI video workflow for Discarded Companion

    After making “Discarded Companion,” I showed how I generated every character and scene in the movie. This includes how to edit clips together for longer sequences. The video contains chapters so you can find the section you’re most interested in learning about.
