Now a question for you Are you among the many PR professionals and marketers that have yet to embrace video because of time consumption, or is your excuse that the degree of difficulty is too high?
00:01:00.430 --> 00:01:04.228
Well, you have just run out of excuses.
00:01:04.228 --> 00:01:09.385
So joining me today, all the way from Jaipur, india, is Gaurav Shamar.
00:01:09.846 --> 00:01:14.620
He is the founder and CEO of AttRock, a results-driven digital marketing company.
00:01:14.620 --> 00:01:20.052
He grew his agency from five figures to seven-figure revenue in just two years.
00:01:20.052 --> 00:01:26.953
He also contributes to top publications like HuffPost, adweek Business, to Community TechCrunch and others.
00:01:26.953 --> 00:01:34.441
Today, however, he is contributing to the Public Relations Review Podcast, so thank you so much for joining us Now.
00:01:34.441 --> 00:01:40.033
Recently, you wrote an article on seven AI video editors to boost your PR campaigns.
00:01:40.033 --> 00:01:45.412
As an active AI video user myself, I thought this would be a great topic for our audience.
00:01:45.412 --> 00:01:55.153
So let's talk about those AI video editors Now, due to technical difficulties, the first 30 seconds of Gaurav's comments were lost.
00:01:56.180 --> 00:01:56.302
AI.
00:01:56.302 --> 00:01:57.305
There are plenty of tools.
00:01:57.305 --> 00:02:02.885
This is one of the posts I've read recently about some videos, but I'd like to mention a few things.
00:02:02.885 --> 00:02:09.954
When you start experiencing and working on the videos, there are certain tools that uh seems to be like the top most.
00:02:09.954 --> 00:02:28.194
If I like to mention all seven of them, it might confuse a lot of people, so I want to give you uh some straight answers regarding few tools uh that I personally use, I personally recommend, and that has a great output, or the really good video quality.
00:02:28.194 --> 00:02:31.663
That's one of the ways is Hejan.
00:02:31.663 --> 00:02:45.127
Hejan is a super solid tool that I personally use for minimum time for my clients, for social media videos, for sometimes personalizing certain things for certain clients.
00:02:45.621 --> 00:02:51.207
It really helps to close deals with that, and another one is Synthesiaio.
00:02:52.241 --> 00:02:54.087
Well, let's go back to Hadrian right quick now.
00:02:54.087 --> 00:02:57.930
Why do you think it's so, why you enjoy it so much?
00:02:57.930 --> 00:02:59.687
What do people get about it?
00:02:59.687 --> 00:03:01.300
As you said, it's very easy to use.
00:03:01.300 --> 00:03:04.008
What sort of things can you do with, or have you done with it?
00:03:06.580 --> 00:03:07.604
With Hadrian Right said, it's very easy to use.
00:03:07.604 --> 00:03:08.987
What sort of things can you do with or have you done with it with?
00:03:08.987 --> 00:03:09.269
Again right?
00:03:09.269 --> 00:03:15.445
So with the agent, the, the output quality is very good and the most important thing that I actually enjoyed is, uh, the integration with the 11 labs.
00:03:15.445 --> 00:03:25.770
So, uh, because, uh, with 11 labs, that has a multiple grid feature, that, uh, that's like voice cloning that I use personally a lot.
00:03:25.770 --> 00:03:34.669
With a simple voice, they can clone it and you can just talk about 10 things with your voice clone and nobody will actually never know.
00:03:34.669 --> 00:03:39.906
Integration with the Lionel Labs and Haygen makes it super solidly.
00:03:39.906 --> 00:03:48.730
That's why, when you actually listen to the output, to be honest, nobody is able to actually recognize that it's actually AI.
00:03:48.730 --> 00:03:56.054
It's so smooth and so clean and without interruption and their deep learning algorithm they've used.
00:03:56.054 --> 00:04:02.014
It's super solid in voice learning and integrating with the HGN, with the DeepPIC, with the hijan, with the deep pick.
00:04:03.762 --> 00:04:31.329
Just to make sure our listeners understand, because when you said the fact that individuals can put the own voices into this platform, and that's when the AI systems will pick it up and use it for whatever narrations they want to use it for, and I think people need to understand that that's there, or they can choose from a variety of voices that these platforms offer them and, in some cases, a variety of languages too.
00:04:33.254 --> 00:04:33.435
Right.
00:04:33.435 --> 00:04:35.011
Right, so they have a variety of voices.
00:04:35.011 --> 00:04:37.107
You can pick it up.
00:04:37.107 --> 00:04:39.069
That totally depends on your choice.
00:04:39.069 --> 00:04:53.872
But the great thing about the AI is you can clone your voice Right, which makes it up to another level, because if you choose AI preferred voices, people can actually assume that it's a robotic voice.
00:04:53.872 --> 00:04:54.995
It's unnatural.
00:04:54.995 --> 00:05:19.906
But if you use voice cloning and just if you input some of your original voices in different emotion tools and the 11 Labs actually make it into more natural voices and that also gives some emotions when you give them a script, so that makes it more natural and the output looks sound really crazy, to be honest, right.
00:05:20.608 --> 00:05:40.910
And let's talk also about how people can use these, because some companies as a matter of fact, I went to a restaurant driving restaurant the other day and pushed the button to put in an order and it was an AI voice there and they took the order and I asked them to repeat it just to make sure they did that accurately.
00:05:40.910 --> 00:05:58.206
So that's certainly one, but the video thing, people can use it in place of having a real person there, because these things are trained so that they can actually answer the actual questions that you ask them precisely with precision right, right, right.
00:05:58.507 --> 00:06:03.345
So with the with the video thing, uh like, it's getting like uh really good nowadays.
00:06:03.345 --> 00:06:11.107
Uh, with the hey gen and the like chat gpd's opening eyes also on soda and uh like uh synthesia that I mentioned.
00:06:11.107 --> 00:06:14.031
So they are upgrading uh to another great level.
00:06:14.031 --> 00:06:26.831
But if you look into how they can actually change, the worldwide people can use it for choosing the client, giving a personalized message to a specific someone.
00:06:28.769 --> 00:06:37.672
If you have 10 clients, you want to record a certain message, you want to make it look natural and you don't have enough time, use voice cloning and then mix it with agent and video AI.
00:06:37.672 --> 00:06:41.494
You can personalize those messages and the client will never know.
00:06:41.494 --> 00:06:52.476
They will think that they are like exclusive video that you have created for them and that makes them feel great and with that feeling you can close the deal very easily.
00:06:52.476 --> 00:06:57.211
So you can actually increase the volume in terms of like creating different types of videos.
00:06:57.211 --> 00:07:06.916
And, most important, that I personally use is like closing deals with the video AI different exclusive, personalized videos that I have to send on the email.
00:07:06.916 --> 00:07:09.932
So that helps my business grow.
00:07:11.276 --> 00:07:16.009
Well, you know, the other thing I think that comes in is very helpful is just answering questions.
00:07:16.009 --> 00:07:21.699
When consumers have a question about your company or your products or services, that they're trained.
00:07:21.699 --> 00:07:23.432
These things are trained to respond.
00:07:23.432 --> 00:07:30.375
I mean, they understand what the question is, they know what the information is that they can give to them.
00:07:30.375 --> 00:07:37.899
So there's just such a wide variety of opportunities for these things to be used in a very, very beneficial way.
00:07:39.024 --> 00:07:40.839
Yeah, there are a lot of beneficial ways.
00:07:40.839 --> 00:08:00.588
To be honest, it means they are also like if you like, you will find there are a lot of misleading ways on misleading ways that people use and in political areas, like you want to like hurt somebody's image, yeah, you create some uh really bad videos and put it online.
00:08:00.588 --> 00:08:16.110
Things can go in a crazy way as well, but uh, for me, uh, I think like, if you use it in a decent way, like for your business, for your like the personal branding on social media, I like using these, that would make that would change the whole business.
00:08:16.110 --> 00:08:23.016
It would save a lot of time for scripting, for editing, for scheduling.
00:08:23.016 --> 00:08:26.779
So everything will get changed according to video Right.
00:08:32.804 --> 00:08:37.596
And I think that's one of the reasons I really wanted to do this particular episode is because it has so many benefits, you know, for the sales.
00:08:37.596 --> 00:08:49.798
Then you know somebody wants to know well, what's the difference between this particular unit you have and the other one you have, that the the uh uh avatar can can explain the differences between the two.
00:08:49.798 --> 00:08:54.879
So it's a, it can be a sales tool, um provide information about your company.
00:08:54.879 --> 00:09:01.216
I mean, it can do a lot of lot of things and it does so very, very well, and I think people need to understand that.
00:09:01.216 --> 00:09:05.576
So what are some of the other platforms that you recommend?
00:09:07.985 --> 00:09:17.996
Like personally that I've tried other tools, but the Synthesia and the Heijan is one that I personally recommend because those tools are super solid in the software.
00:09:17.996 --> 00:09:22.735
Other tools that I can mention but, to be honest, when you look into the outputs, they're good.
00:09:22.735 --> 00:09:23.517
They're good.
00:09:23.517 --> 00:09:39.258
You get started, but if you are looking for some professional advice, something to avoid confusion, like 11 Labs, Synthesia and Hejan, you can just vouch for it and you don't have to look for another two guys Right.
00:09:40.488 --> 00:09:44.251
Well, when I promote this podcast, I use one called Vidnaz.
00:09:44.251 --> 00:09:56.706
And I use simply Vidnaz because, like I would do with this one, here's what our next episode will be about We'll learn this point, that point, so forth, and so on.
00:09:56.706 --> 00:09:57.370
And also here's the day that it will be about We'll learn this point, that point, so forth, and so on.
00:09:57.370 --> 00:10:01.313
And also here's the day that it will be released and all those kinds of things.
00:10:01.313 --> 00:10:02.376
And then I put it up.
00:10:02.376 --> 00:10:05.875
It's a way to promote all of the forthcoming episodes.
00:10:06.446 --> 00:10:09.615
So I just picked that one because for me it was the easiest one to use.
00:10:09.615 --> 00:10:20.755
It allowed me to actually I put my own photo in a couple of them, and it also allows me to add some other outside video to it if I need to do that.
00:10:20.755 --> 00:10:22.717
So it has all these sort of things.
00:10:22.717 --> 00:10:28.804
But the big thing I've also used is that you can use it internally for company emails.
00:10:28.804 --> 00:10:30.268
You know that.
00:10:30.268 --> 00:10:34.937
You know you can send it, rather than just a worded document that goes around to the company.
00:10:35.044 --> 00:10:38.030
Send this video around because it gets a lot more attention.
00:10:38.030 --> 00:10:48.298
Or, and I've said to some people, community outreach, if your organization wants to send something out to the community to talk about new services or program that you're having.
00:10:48.298 --> 00:10:56.280
Send this because it engages people a lot longer, because the video aspect of it and the audio aspect of it attracts their attention.
00:10:56.280 --> 00:11:05.128
So I think you get a much larger response and a better response than somebody just sitting and reading a bunch of emails, like they have to do anyway.
00:11:05.128 --> 00:11:14.421
So you have any others that you can think of right now, or platforms.
00:11:19.351 --> 00:11:22.759
I can say the tools would be like the Muavi, the Muse.
00:11:22.759 --> 00:11:27.535
Those are like secondary tools that I've used in the past.
00:11:27.535 --> 00:11:34.596
Those are like I think see, a lot of people have different budget Part as well.
00:11:34.596 --> 00:11:55.571
So if somebody has less budget and they want to just get started Because Heijin and Level Live Are on a posterior side, to be honest, but just getting started with something low budget, muse is a good one, rephrase is a good one and you can go for like videoai, that's a good one as well.
00:11:55.571 --> 00:12:00.046
So, like these are like really nice tools.
00:12:00.488 --> 00:12:06.307
But again, the Synthesia and Hagen are like the one that I personally use and I recommend like on a daily basis.
00:12:06.307 --> 00:12:08.048
But we use, they can try.
00:12:08.048 --> 00:12:13.533
They have great a lot of different voices for different AI voices that they can pick.
00:12:13.533 --> 00:12:25.818
The voice cloning is not there, but they have really good AI voices they can pick and some of them people have heard on Instagram, on YouTube, that that is pretty common these days.
00:12:25.818 --> 00:12:34.453
When somebody is looking for like motivational video, there's like very deep voices they can find and most of the creators use Muse in such cases.
00:12:34.453 --> 00:12:43.453
So the Muse is good, rephrase is good and, yeah, mojave is another great one People can go.
00:12:44.505 --> 00:12:54.251
Yeah, and I just think that you know folks I mean this day and age that folks really need to take a look at them, because most of them are so very, very easy to use.
00:12:54.251 --> 00:13:04.712
The fact that you can clone your own voices in there, as you mentioned, your own photographs in there or other people from your company in there, it adds to the certain validity of it.
00:13:04.712 --> 00:13:41.280
The other thing I think that needs to be, and there's a lot of concern about, particularly now here in the US with an election coming up that there are going to be some fake things coming up and people need to be careful about it and if there's some question about it, call the organization that they supposedly represent to double check, just to make sure that, uh, did you say this is the truth or just what's going on there, because that, uh, right now, that's a major concern I mean, I more than here in the US, but just around the world about the massive problems that something like this can certainly cause.
00:13:44.586 --> 00:13:46.111
Cool man, that's cool.
00:13:46.111 --> 00:13:53.201
There are different ways people can use VR in a good way and in a bad way.
00:13:53.427 --> 00:13:53.610
Mm-hmm.
00:13:54.945 --> 00:13:58.033
Yeah, we wanted to just bring the good ways to the folks.
00:13:58.033 --> 00:13:59.096
That's what this show is about.
00:13:59.096 --> 00:14:04.274
We want to bring information to our listeners that they can actually use in their everyday work.
00:14:04.274 --> 00:14:12.216
And AI is growing so fast and so prominent and really has an important position in your company.
00:14:12.216 --> 00:14:20.777
Individuals just need to find out how to use it that works best for them, and then fine-tune it so that it meets their goals and purposes.
00:14:22.485 --> 00:14:41.097
True man true, and that part for the companies like uh, even for the individual, this increasing sales uh would be the most like uh important department that yeah, they can use ai uh for closing deals and like like uh, we use for the personal branding or maybe the branding for the company.
00:14:41.097 --> 00:14:46.230
So that's like biggest advantage they can actually leverage from video AI.
00:14:47.894 --> 00:14:48.155
Okay.
00:14:48.155 --> 00:14:53.669
Well, let me ask you now do you have any sort of closing remarks for our listeners?
00:14:56.096 --> 00:14:56.297
Sorry.
00:14:57.946 --> 00:15:00.995
Do you have any closing remarks for our listeners?
00:15:02.544 --> 00:15:03.609
Yeah, for me.
00:15:03.609 --> 00:15:36.587
I would like to say that if somebody is looking for any kind of consultation on video AI or looking for any kind of marketing services for related content or social media, they can contact us on corobetheretrocom and again, lastly, hagen, synthesia and LearnLabs would be the solid tools and for some branding and social media and the sales part, go for the AI.
00:15:36.587 --> 00:15:42.303
That's the future and for the next 5-10 years, things are going to be a lot crazy.
00:15:42.303 --> 00:15:48.912
As soon as people heard about the OpenAI, things are going to change like 10 times.
00:15:48.912 --> 00:16:00.972
I can imagine People going after looking for scripts, writing, editing, scheduling everything will go by AI in the next 5 to 10 years.
00:16:00.972 --> 00:16:12.184
So if people adopt AI nowadays, that's futuristic, so don't try to like create it as a bubble or something.
00:16:13.320 --> 00:16:35.285
It's real and it's going to change future well, let me thank you so very, very much and, as I said, this episode will be broadcast or released July the 1st, I believe I said, but I'll send you a link to it and, believe it or not, I'm going to be using some audio, some visual AI to promote this particular podcast as well.
00:16:35.285 --> 00:16:52.772
We'll do it on LinkedIn and Facebook and those as well Twitter, because it really does drive our listenership up, and actually the other thing in terms of our audience are mostly Gen Zers and millennials, so this is their kind of topic.
00:16:52.772 --> 00:16:55.693
So I think you're going to do very well in terms of that.
00:16:55.693 --> 00:16:57.351
But you'll get a copy of it.
00:16:57.351 --> 00:17:01.576
We'll also send you a logo to go along with it.
00:17:01.576 --> 00:17:05.608
So if you want to put it on your website that you've been on the podcast, we certainly would appreciate it.
00:17:06.853 --> 00:17:07.275
Sure, sure.
00:17:07.275 --> 00:17:14.035
It means I'll be promoting on my Instagram and on YouTube and I'll send you to all the newsletters subscribers we have.
00:17:14.476 --> 00:17:15.178
