This maintains 100% identity consistency, allowing you to give your character a "New Look" while locking the exact facial structure.

At this point, your AI Influencer is fully created and ready for static image generation. But if you want to bring them to life and make them move, simply proceed to the final step.

Every character is "Recast-ready." Switch to the Recast tab or click the Recast button directly on your character card in History:

Who Is Pollo AI Influencer For?

  • Faceless Creators & Social Media Managers: Build and scale character-led TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube channels where a single virtual persona must maintain recognizable visual identity across hundreds of videos over months.

  • Performance Marketers & DTC Brands: Design custom brand ambassadors and spokespersons without recurring talent contracts or studio rental costs, then test multiple product hooks rapidly using motion transfer.
  • Short-Form Video Creators & Meme Curators: Combine stylized non-human characters, such as anthropomorphic frogs or capybaras, with trending internet dances and kinetic audio to tap into algorithmic virality. For fast social campaigns, create TikTok video ads with the same character identity.
  • Agencies Managing Multiple Client Personas: Keep distinct virtual personas, proprietary lookbooks, and voice presets neatly separated and organized inside the Elements dashboard for different client accounts. You can also create consistent profile pictures for each persona.
  • Indie Filmmakers & Animators: Cast consistent characters, futuristic androids, and creature concepts across multiple storyboard scenes directly inside the Pollo AI creation flow.

Pro Tips for Better Results

  • Lock Consistency via Picker: Always use the Select button in the Assets picker to pull your character into new workflows so the engine references the exact same visual identity.
  • Assign Default Voice Early: Pick and audition a Default Voice in the character details panel so your influencer is primed for audio-driven video updates.
  • Iterate Fast with Re-create: If your character is almost perfect but needs a different hairstyle or outfit, hit Re-create to reload all original settings and tweak just that one parameter.
