Former short-film director. I test AI video and digital-human tools the way a working creator would actually use them.

What I cover

AI video generators, avatar/digital-human tools (HeyGen, Synthesia, D-ID), and Runway/Pika-style generative video. I focus on lip-sync accuracy, render stability, and batch workflows.

How I test

I generate the same 5-scene brief on each tool, score lip-sync drift frame-by-frame, log render failures, and time a 10-clip batch. Free-plan limits are noted as E2a; provided samples as E2b.

Selected work

• HeyGen vs D-ID (2026)
• Synthesia vs HeyGen (2026)
• Best AI Avatar Video Tools 2026
