A “Watermelon” video is a personalized video you record using a dynamic name, where “Watermelon” is the example placeholder name (as in “Hi Watermelon”). For the best AI results, record at least 10 seconds, pause briefly after the name, work in a quiet space close to the microphone, and use Face Mode or Cam Mode so you can add dynamic backgrounds later.

​
Key takeaways

  • Record for at least 10 seconds so the AI has enough voice data to work with.
  • Pause briefly after saying the dynamic name (for example, “Hi Watermelon”).
  • Record in a quiet environment and stay close to the microphone.
  • Use Face Mode or Cam Mode so you can enable dynamic backgrounds later.

Best Practices for Recording Personalized Videos

To ensure the best results when generating personalized videos with AI, please follow these recommendations.

​
🎯 Pause briefly after the name

If you say a dynamic name (for example: “Hi Watermelon”), leave a short pause after the name before continuing your sentence.
This helps the AI process the personalization more naturally.

​
⏱️ Record at least 10 seconds

Your recording should be at least 10 seconds long.
Very short recordings may not provide enough voice data for the AI to generate accurate results.

​
🔇 Record in a quiet environment

Choose a silent place when recording.
Avoid background noise such as:
  • People talking
  • Clapping or loud sounds
  • Music or TV

​
🎙️ Be mindful of microphone sensitivity

Phone microphones can easily pick up environmental noise, which can affect the final result.
Recording in a controlled environment will improve quality.

​
🔊 Speak close to the microphone

Make sure you are close enough to the microphone and speaking at a clear volume.
If you are too far away or speaking too softly, the AI output may not sound optimal.

​
🎥 Record in Face Mode or Cam Mode

Always record using Face Mode or Cam Mode.
This allows you to enable dynamic backgrounds later if needed.
