If you have seen a lot of the talking babies online and, like me, you are curious how those guys do that, well let me tell you…it’s easier than you think to take a picture and make it talk.

I couldn’t wait to try the software from Hedra.com and came up with some cute talking photos to entertain my family. Here’s one I came up with this evening, in about 5 minutes.

Now, to be clear, there was a bit of a learning curve to begin with, but Hedra has posted some great teaching videos. (I should have watched them!)

Anyway, you can use any photo from your home collection, upload a voice sample, or just choose one of the many voices offered at Hedra, and type the words you want your picture to say.

It’s too much fun, for sure, but also really serves to up your creativity.

Just think, if I can do this one in 5 minutes, how much better could I do with a little extra time.

They have a free version while you are getting started, so what’s stopping you?
