ElevenLabs alternative
ElevenLabs alternative for voices that come with a face
ElevenLabs makes the voice. Pixel Dojo makes the voice and the picture together: video models that speak your line in one take, text to speech, and avatars that lip sync a still portrait to audio.
We wrote one narrator line and ran it on four video models that generate speech, then took a single portrait and made it talk two ways. Every clip below ran on Pixel Dojo and lists what it cost.

One portrait, two voices, and a narrated scene
We generated the portrait first, then made it speak with two different avatar models. Tap any tile to start from the same settings.
The starting still on Nano Banana 2.1. Any portrait you upload works the same way.
Studio portrait of an original character: a man in his fifties with a close cropped grey beard, a navy cable knit sweater and reading glasses hanging on a cord, standing in a woodworking shop with soft focus tools behind him, warm window light, looking straight at the camera.
Text to Speech wrote the voice, Kling Avatar matched his lips to it, about 9 seconds of talking.

P-Video Avatar read a typed script in a named male voice, no audio file needed.
A documentary shot on Veo 3.1 Fast with the narrator voiceover written into the prompt.
Underwater documentary shot drifting over a bright coral reef as a green sea turtle glides past, with a calm male narrator voiceover saying, "Every reef is a city that never sleeps." Sun rays through blue water, soft bubbles.

One narrator line on four video models that speak
Same prompt, same 16:9 frame: an audiobook narrator in a booth reads one line into the microphone. No separate voice track, no lip sync pass.

- All four clips came back with an audio track built in, generated with the picture from the prompt alone.
- Kling 3.0 framed the narrator straight on with glasses and the page in front of him, the most classic voiceover shot.
- Veo 3.1 Fast went for a side profile in warm amber light, close to the pop filter.
- WAN 3.0 gave the most expressive delivery on camera, a smile between words, for the fewest credits of the four.
Three ways to give a video a voice on Pixel Dojo
Write the line into the prompt
Quote the words in a Seedance 2.5, Veo 3.1, Kling 3.0 or WAN 3.0 prompt and the speaker says them in the clip, as in the test above.
Text to speech, then lip sync
Turn a script into audio with Text to Speech, then hand that file and a portrait to Kling Avatar. The hero clip on this page was made that way.
Type the script into the avatar
P-Video Avatar takes a portrait, a script and a named voice, and returns the talking clip in one step.
Narration over a scene
Ask Veo 3.1 for a narrator voiceover in the prompt and it lays the line over the shot, documentary style.
