Why every video keeps one character

Faceless channels that grow tend to have a face anyway: a recurring character viewers recognise in the feed. So Alpy picks one narrator for each video and keeps it the same in every scene: the same shape, colours and outfit, whatever the scene around it is doing. It appears on the thumbnail too, so the video and its thumbnail look like they belong together. Use the same character across your uploads and it becomes your channel’s mascot.

The characters above are free on every plan. You can also bring your own: upload an image of it at no cost, or describe it in writing and Alpy draws it for 10 seconds of your video minutes (your first one is free if you have no plan). Either way it is saved to your library to reuse.
