Talk to an Interactive Avatar in Articulate Storyline
In this demo I've added an interactive avatar from HeyGen in to Storyline via a Web Object.
I gave the avatar the persona of an eLearning expert, so if you ask him questions on that topic, he'll answer.
I haven't gone in to the process of creating the avatar in HeyGen, as there are numerous avatar vendors out there that are most likely able to do the same thing, and everyone will probably have their own preferences. That said, I have written a blog post discussing the demo, some of the pitfalls, and how I can see this sort of thing being used int he future.

Is there any info on how to get started with this, or a guide for someone not advanced with html...I do have access to heygen.
I haven't written a guide but hopefully the following info will steer you in the right direction.
When you go to embed the interactive avatar from inside HeyGen there is a screengrab showing what goes in to the html file (see image). Once you've created the html file, upload it to a web server with https and point your web object in Storyline towards that.
Let me know how you get on.
Thank you... I think first I need to learn how to obtain a web server that I can upload to.
Great post and demo - thanks. Certainly something I need to explore further
Thanks David. If you do explore this further I'd love to hear how you get on.
