Against the backdrop of globalization, short drama content has become a trend. Using AI face-changing and dubbing technology to replace the faces of actors in domestic short dramas with European and American faces, and paired with fluent English dubbing, it can not only greatly reduce the production cost, but also improve the localization and attractiveness of the content. This method saves the producers up to hundreds of thousands of production costs and may achieve a daily turnover of up to 10,000 US dollars. In this way, the short drama content can better adapt to the needs of overseas markets and attract more international audiences.
People who are suitable for this kind of money-making idea include production companies that are interested in bringing short drama content to the international market, independent producers, and content creators who are interested in the application of AI technology. These people need to have a certain understanding of AI face swapping and dubbing technology, and have a certain understanding of the localization of short drama content. At the same time, they also need to take into account cultural differences and audience preferences in the target market to ensure the success of the content.
The operation process method is relatively simple, but requires a certain technical foundation. First, choose the right AI face swap and voiceover tools, such as DeepFaceLab (DFL) and HeyGen. Make the original video content of the short drama and choose the right European and American face as a replacement. Use AI tools to perform facial replacement and lip sync to generate new video content. Adjust the plot and dialogue according to the language and cultural characteristics of the target market to ensure localization of the content. Finally, the AI-processed short drama content is released to overseas markets for market testing and promotion.
AI face-changing dubbing technology provides a new solution for short dramas to go overseas, which can effectively reduce production costs and increase the attractiveness of content. However, this approach still faces challenges of cultural differences and audience acceptance. In addition, the application of AI technology also needs to consider copyright and ethical issues. Despite this, with the advancement of technology and the adaptation of the market, AI face-changing voice-over short dramas are expected to become a new trend in the short drama industry.
The tools used include DeepFaceLab (DFL), an open source face swap project that is used to convert videos to pictures, extract faces, train models, face replacement, and synthesis videos. Another tool is HeyGen, an AI video and digital life generation platform that supports lip sync, one-click translation, multilingual video content generation and other functions. The combination of these tools can greatly simplify the production process of short drama content and improve efficiency.
