Also users can choose characters along with their costumes and skins, music and background noise. Educators can add speech as text, which will turn into an audio dialogue in creasing the engagement of the video. And while creation they can set their camera angles, position, gesture, colour etc. Since this tool is freemium,it has ‘point system’ which unlocks the paid actors and scenes.
