varg-podcast-video
Makes podcast-style and two-character dialogue videos on varg with AI characters who stay the same in every angle: an empty studio set, one wide master shot built from character references, close-ups and lighting cutaways derived from that master, then 5-second image-to-video scenes in which each character speaks their line with native audio, reviewed on an HTML storyboard and stitched into one MP4. Use when someone asks for a podcast video, an AI podcast, a video podcast with two hosts, an interview, debate or talk-show clip between two characters, a myth-vs-truth or "lie vs truth" explainer, or a short of talking characters trading punchy lines. Not for cutting an existing podcast recording into shorts (find a clipping skill with video-skills), one speaker on a stage (use varg-character-keynote), multi-location ads with real actors (use varg-consistent-characters), or songs (use varg-music-video).

# varg podcast video
Generate consistent-character podcast and dialogue videos with varg image generation + image-to-video with native audio.
Generation runs on varg: the `varg-ai` skill (REST at `https://api.varg.ai/v2`, sign-in and model details) or the varg MCP server (`https://mcp.varg.ai/mcp`: `generate_image`, `generate_video` or `call_tool`, then `get_job`). The REST calls below map one-to-one onto the MCP tools.
## When to use
- Two-character conversation videos (podcast, interview, debate)
- Educational content with a "lie vs truth" format
- Any multi-scene video where character consistency matters across angles
- Short-form content (5 s per scene, punchy dialogue lines)
## Prerequisites
