	== Overview ==		== Overview ==
	Digital Actors in ACT 3 AI are AI-generated ~~or imported~~ virtual performers that bring ~~characters~~ to life ~~in your films, marketing content, or social media videos~~.		'''[[Digital_Actors\|Digital Actors]]''' in the [[ACT3AI\|ACT 3 AI]] platform are AI-generated, fully customizable virtual performers that bring your [[Scenes\|scenes]] to life.
	They can be ~~fully AI-driven~~, ~~animated using~~ [[~~Motion_Capture~~\|~~Motion Capture~~]]~~, or a combination of both, allowing for realistic movement, expressions,~~ and ~~voice delivery without requiring live actors on set~~.		They can be cast in any role, dressed for any occasion, and directed to deliver performances that match your [[Script_Editor\|script]] and [[Story_Arcs\|story arcs]].

	~~== Key Benefits ==~~		Digital Actors integrate seamlessly into your [[New_Project\|projects]] and [[Editor\|video editor workflow]], making it possible to achieve high-quality performances without physical shoots, casting calls, or extensive post-production.
	~~1. Eliminate the cost and logistics of hiring physical actors.~~
	~~2. Customize appearance, clothing, voice,~~ and ~~performance style.~~
	~~3. Enable consistent performances across multiple projects.~~
	~~4. Integrate with~~ [[~~Sets~~\|~~Virtual Sets~~]] ~~and AI cinematography for a complete~~ production ~~pipeline.~~
	~~5. Combine AI animation with human-recorded MoCap for maximum realism~~.

	== ~~Digital Actor Creation Workflow~~ ==		== Key Features ==
	1. ~~Open the Casting Tool~~		* '''Full Customization:''' Adjust [[Characters\|character]] appearance, wardrobe, ethnicity, and emotional tone.
	~~Access the~~ [[~~Cast~~\|~~Cast~~]] ~~section in the~~ [[~~Editor~~\|~~Editor~~]].		* '''Performance Control:''' Modify body language, facial expressions, and timing to fit the [[Story_Beats\|story beats]].
			* '''AI Voice Dubbing:''' Assign multilingual voices with precise lip-syncing and emotion control.
			* '''Rights & Usage Protection:''' Built-in content licensing for commercial or private projects.
			* '''[[Motion_Capture\|Motion Capture Integration]]:''' Use an iPhone or compatible device to capture realistic movements.
			* '''Reusability:''' Save and reuse Digital Actors across [[Scenes\|scenes]], episodes, or entire [[Projects\|projects]] for continuity.

	2. ~~Select Actor Type~~		== How to Use Digital Actors ==
	~~Choose from~~:		# From the [[Editor\|Editor]] sidebar, click '''Digital Actors'''.
	* AI-Generated Actor: Fully AI-modeled with procedural animation.		# Browse the available [[Actor_Library\|actor library]] or click '''Create New'''.
	* Imported Actor Model: From FBX, ~~GLB~~, or ~~other 3D formats~~.		# Customize:
	* Hybrid Actor: AI-driven ~~body animation with human motion capture overlay.~~		## Name and [[Role\|role]] in the project.
			## Wardrobe and style.
			## Facial features, hair, and body proportions.

			# Direct performance through:
			## [[AI_Wizard\|AI-driven performance suggestions]]
			## [[Top_Down_View\|Top-Down View]] blocking
			## [[Storyboard_Panels\|Storyboard panels]]

	3. Customize Appearance		== Integration in Workflow ==
	~~Adjust facial features, body shape, hair~~, ~~wardrobe~~, and ~~accessories~~.		Digital Actors work hand-in-hand with other [[ACT3AI]] tools:
			* [[AI_Wizard\|AI Wizard]] – suggests character traits and backstory aligned with the plot.
			* [[Editor\|Editor]] – places actors in shots and adjusts movement paths.
			* [[Build_Video\|Build Video]] – renders performances using engines like [[Google_Veo_3]], [[Wan]], and [[Runway]].
			* [[Credit_System\|Credit System]] – see cost per scene before rendering.

	4. ~~Assign Voice**~~		== Tips for Best Results ==
	~~Pick an AI-generated voice or import recorded audio~~.		* Define [[Characters\|characters]] early in [[AI_Wizard]] to ensure consistent casting.
	* ~~Supports multiple languages and accents~~.		* Use [[Motion_Capture\|motion capture]] for realism in complex action shots.
	* ~~Syncs automatically with lip movement~~.		* Pair voice settings with emotional tone for natural delivery.
			* Lock finished performances to prevent accidental changes in collaborative projects.

	5. ~~Define Performance Style**~~		== Related Pages ==
	~~Choose acting tone (e.g., dramatic, comedic, corporate) and emotional range.~~		* [[Characters\|Character Creation & Management]]
			* [[AI_Wizard\|AI Wizard]]
	6. ~~Apply Animation Source**~~		* [[Editor\|Video Editor]]
	* ~~AI procedural animation.~~		* [[Motion_Capture\|Motion Capture Integration]]
	* ~~Imported MoCap from~~ [[Motion_Capture\|Motion Capture]] ~~devices.~~		* [[Build_Video\|Build Video]]
	* ~~Keyframe editing for fine-tuned movements.~~		* [[Scenes]]
			* [[Shots]]
	7. ~~Place Actor in Set**~~
	~~Position the actor within the scene, blocking them according to camera and lighting setup.~~

	8. Preview & Adjust		[https://act3ai.com/contact Contact Us] if you have any problems using our product, or if you have questions.
	~~Test movement, facial animation, and voice sync before final rendering.~~

	~~== Integration with Other Tools ==~~
	~~1. Cinematography: Works with~~ [~~[Creating_AI_Cinematography\|AI Cinematography]] to track actors dynamically.~~
	~~2. Lighting Design~~: Automatically adjusts shadows and highlights to fit the scene.
	~~3. Scene Continuity: Saves wardrobe, position~~, ~~and expressions for multi-scene consistency.~~

	~~== Best Practices ==~~
	1. ~~Use consistent wardrobe and facial presets for recurring characters.~~
	~~2. Blend AI and MoCap animation for the most natural performance.~~
	~~3. Keep actor file sizes optimized for faster render times.~~
	~~4. Test performance in multiple camera angles before finalizing.~~
