Individual skill

talking-photo

Make a still image talk with sync. labs (sync.so). Turns a photo, portrait, headshot, or an illustrated or AI-generated character with a human-like face into a lip-synced video from a typed script (sync. voices it) or the user's own audio. Use for "make this photo talk", "make this picture say…", talking avatars, talking headshots, animating a portrait or character with speech, or image-to-video with dialogue, including when the user has no picture yet and wants one made first. Not for moving video footage (lipsync or ai-video-to-talking), translation (translate-and-dub) or changing words in an existing video (edit-dialogue).

# Make a photo talk

Delivers one MP4 of the picture speaking the user's words. The video is as long as the speech.

If no sync. tools are available, follow [references/connect.md](references/connect.md) first. Without the MCP tools, use the REST requests in [references/api.md](references/api.md) for the same steps.

## Inputs

- **Picture:** a local image, an image attached in chat, a public URL, or a sync. image asset ID. If the user has no picture and you can generate images, offer to make one: one clear face, looking at the camera, mouth closed, head and shoulders, plain background. Otherwise ask for one.
- **Speech:** a script, which needs a voice, or an audio file, URL or asset.

Ask only for what's missing. Never invent the words. If the user asks you to write them, draft a short script and get approval before quoting.
