Controling narration voices

This example shows how to set voices for different scenes in Video Puppet.

Check out the outcome in result.mp4.

Try it out

Upload the script directory to a Video Puppet project. The main script file is source.md.

How it works

VideoPuppet script files can include an optional header, setting global properties. The header starts with the scene separator (---) in the first line, and includes a key-value map separated by colons (technically, it's a YAML block). For example, the following header sets the size and the voice for the whole document:

---
size: 720p
voice: William
---

You can modify individual scenes by including a stage direction. Stage directions are paragraphs enclosed in brackets. For example, the following stage direction sets Elisabeth as the voice for the scene:

(voice: Elisabeth)

Passengers booked to fly British Airways to Cairo this week, will 
instead be boarding a plane belonging to a Belgian budget airline.

Available voices

Check out the Video Puppet Available Voices page for an up-to-date list of voices and to try them out.
