Voiceover artist cleans scripts in Claude before generating in ElevenLabs

What they did

Before generating audio, they had Claude place pauses and punctuation to get the inflection they wanted from the ElevenLabs model they used, and help pick override settings for their voice clone per project. They also built a promo site with Claude's design tool and made a promo in Canva for LinkedIn and TikTok.

How it went

They produced 4 videos in their first 48 hours, and say viewership "jumped from around 30 views a day to 92 in the last 48 hours."

"That cut my regenerations down a *lot* — which saved a ton of credits."

Here is a voiceover script: [script]. Mark where a natural speaker would pause, adjust punctuation so a text-to-speech voice reads it with the right emphasis, and point out any words that might be mispronounced.
