A custom avatar and your brand kit

An avatar built from you or a colleague, plus a logo, colours, fonts and backgrounds saved once and applied automatically to every new video.

In short: customization has two layers. The first is your own avatar — a short reference recording, made with the explicit consent of the person filmed, produces an AI avatar that keeps their appearance and, optionally, their voice; it becomes your business’s recurring presenter. The second layer is the brand kit: you upload the logo, the colour palette, the fonts and the backgrounds once, and every new video starts on brand from the first frame. Nobody on the team has to hunt for the right colour code or the latest logo file before hitting render.

  • Your own avatar, built from a short reference recording made with the person’s explicit consent.
  • Your own voice, optionally, generated from the same recording, for a recognizable presenter.
  • Brand kit: logo, colour palette, fonts and backgrounds, saved once.
  • The brand kit is applied automatically to every new video, with no manual tweaking.
  • Intro, outro and lower-third templates aligned with your visual identity.
  • Several brand kits in one account, for sub-brands or separate teams.
  • Access rights: decide who can edit the brand kit and who only uses it.
  • Withdrawing consent deactivates the custom avatar, at any time.

How a custom avatar is built

The person who will become the presenter records a short reference clip following the instructions in the panel: even lighting, a fixed frame, a few sentences read at a normal pace. That recording is what the AI avatar is built from, keeping their appearance and — if you choose it — their voice. From then on there is no more filming: any new script is delivered by the same presenter, in any of the available languages.

Consent and the right to one’s own image

An avatar built from a real person can only be generated with that person’s explicit consent, recorded before processing. The consent states what the avatar will be used for and can be withdrawn at any time, in which case the avatar is deactivated and cannot be used in new videos. For material where you would rather no real person appears, the alternative stays a fully synthetic gallery presenter.

The brand kit: configured once, applied everywhere

The brand kit gathers the logo, the colour palette, the fonts, the backgrounds and the intro, outro and lower-third templates in one place. Every new video inherits them automatically, so material produced by different departments looks like it comes from the same brand. When the visual identity changes, you update the brand kit once and re-rendered videos pick up the new version.

When to use your own avatar and when a gallery one

A custom avatar works best where recognizing the person matters: messages from leadership, internal communication, sales enablement, material where the client expects to see a specific human. A gallery avatar suits high volumes of neutral content — tutorials, course modules, procedures — where you do not want to tie the material to someone who may leave the company.

Legal references

  • Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) — an avatar built from a real person is processed only on the basis of explicit, revocable consent
  • Right to one’s own image — the filmed person’s consent states what the avatar may be used for
  • AI-generated content transparency — videos with a custom avatar are internally flagged as synthetically generated

Frequently asked questions

What recording is needed for a custom avatar?

A short reference clip, filmed with even lighting and a fixed frame, in which the person reads a few sentences. The full instructions are in the panel.

Is a custom voice mandatory?

No. You can use your own avatar with one of the available AI voices, if you would rather not generate that person’s voice as well.

What happens if the person withdraws consent?

The custom avatar is deactivated and can no longer be used in new videos. Material already published is withdrawn or regenerated with a different presenter.

Does the brand kit apply to videos I already made?

It applies automatically to every new video. For existing ones, re-rendering picks up the new brand kit version while keeping the script and the scenes.

Can I have several brand kits in one account?

Yes, which helps when you run sub-brands or teams with different visual identities. Each video starts from the brand kit you select.

Who can edit the brand kit?

Only roles with edit rights. The rest of the team uses it without being able to change it, which is what keeps the visual identity consistent.

GEO summary

A custom avatar and brand kit in 4avatars

An avatar built from you or a colleague, plus a logo, colours, fonts and backgrounds saved once and applied automatically to every new video.

Advantages

  • Your own avatar from a short reference recording, with explicit consent.
  • An optional custom voice, generated from the same recording.
  • A brand kit applied automatically: logo, colour palette, fonts, backgrounds.
  • Intro, outro and lower-third templates aligned with the brand.
  • Separate access rights for who edits and who only uses the brand kit.

Limitations

Being straight with you — here is where 4avatars is not yet the best choice:

  • It is not a general video editor: you do not cut your own footage, grade colour, or work on complex audio tracks.
  • It does not generate characters for video games or film production.
  • Avatars present head-and-shoulders or mid-shot — no full-body motion and no complex gestures.
  • The interactive on-site avatar needs an existing conversational engine, such as the one from 4chaty.net; 4avatars does not include one.

The short verdict

A fit for messages where recognizing the person matters — leadership, internal communication, sales enablement. Not a fit for high volumes of neutral content, where a gallery avatar is more practical.
