## What it does

The skill covers Pruna P-Video-Avatar, driven by the `belt` CLI from inference.sh. You feed it a portrait image and a line of text, and get back a video of that person speaking. Speech synthesis is built in, so no separate TTS service is involved.

There are 30 voices and 10 languages, at 720p or 1080p. You can pass your own audio file instead of text; when both are present, audio wins over `voice_script`. The `video_prompt` and `voice_prompt` parameters steer avatar behaviour and speaking style, and `seed` makes a run reproducible. If you have no portrait yet, P-Image can generate one.

You need an inference.sh account and a `belt login` before the first run. Pricing scales with length: $0.025 per second of output at 720p, $0.045 at 1080p. That adds up on long clips, so budget it before you queue a batch. The author suggests keeping videos under 3 minutes, otherwise the face drifts from frame to frame.
