💡 Personal Tips

Synthesia is the go-to for corporate video. The avatars are convincing enough for internal training and product walkthroughs. The multilingual feature is killer — record once in English, deploy in 120 languages. It's not cheap, but compare it to hiring a video production crew. For creative video work, look at Runway or Kling instead.
