AI Avatar Improvements

A few suggestions regarding the AI avatars that I have not seen totally written out elsewhere:

  1. The Articulate voices (labeled as Owned by Articulate, Aaron - Wes) absolutely need to be listed as options when using the Generate AI Audio feature. Sometimes I need a talking head, sometimes I just need a voiceover - but I almost ALWAYS need the voices to be the same. I have a work around for this, but it is an annoying process and creates a file that is not easily editable in the future.
  2. When cropping or resizing an AI Avatar the resulting video appears distorted in Storyline, but displays correctly when previewed or published. Not a huge deal, but slightly annoying - I submitted a bug report on this.
  3. It would be great if I could attach a voice to an Avatar that is the default voice whenever I choose that Avatar.
  4. It would also be great if I could generate the "script" for the AI Avatar and had the option to Save without actually generating the video (bonus if I could generate just the voiceover, or not at all) - it could just have a placeholder load instead. This would be helpful when I have a script/storyboard that is mostly complete but I need to get further feedback at a later date. I don't like the idea of generating a video and then having to regenerate later when something changes - I try to be conscious of both my time and the resources required to make these videos.

And of course, it would be great to have more granular control of the Avatar and voiceover (adding emphasis, directing the Avatar to point in specific places and such) but those are general improvements that most AI is not fully capable of at this point.
