How to make an AI voice-over in Root

  1. Add a Voice node. In a project's node graph, drop one in. Every take it makes is saved to the project.
  2. Pick a voice. Choose one of the ElevenLabs voices.
  3. Type the lines. Write or paste the script, up to 5,000 characters.
  4. Check the price and run. The price shows before you run it. The voice-over lands in your project as an audio track.

Putting the voice on a clip

  • As narration: place the track under your clips in Root's timeline.
  • As dialogue: wire the voice and a clip of your character into a Lipsync node, and the mouth is remade to match the words.
  • With music: add a track from Root's music generator and mix the two in the timeline.
