I’m looking for someone experienced with AI avatar and video automation tools to help me design and set up a simple, cost-efficient pipeline. I do not need you to build custom software or manage production long term. I need guidance, setup help, and tool recommendations so I can run the system myself. The goal: Script → AI Avatar → Vertical 9:16 Reel → Captions → Export. This is educational / consulting content (talking-head style, clean visuals). What I Need From You: Recommend the most cost-efficient tool stack (HeyGen / Synthesia / Runway / etc.) Help me create a realistic avatar from my face Help configure voice cloning (if needed) Set up a repeatable workflow for: Script input Video generation Auto captions Clean vertical export Explain limitations clearly (quality, realism, risks) No custom coding required unless absolutely necessary. Priority is low cost and simplicity. Deliverables: 1–2 live setup sessions (Zoom) Working system I can use myself Written step-by-step setup instructions One test video generated successfully Ideal Candidate: Has already built AI avatar content systems Understands short-form content (Reels / TikTok) Practical, not theoretical Focused on efficiency, not overengineering
