Unlike narration, which lives on the voiceover track, dialogue is part of the animation itself. It's added through the Animate & Dialogue Prompt on each shot, which tells the AI what a character should say and how they should say it when the shot is animated.

Three ways to add dialogue

1. Start with a script

If you include dialogue in your initial prompt or script, Hypernatural will automatically pull those lines into each shot's Animate & Dialogue Prompt before generating.

Example script format:

[Scene: Bright studio kitchen, morning light, coffee brewing]Narrator: Great content doesn't have to take all day.@Sofia: I made this entire campaign before my second coffee.@Sofia snaps her laptop shut and grins at the camera.

Character lines and action notes will be included in the animation prompt for the relevant shot.

2. Use the chat

You can add or change dialogue for a specific shot through chat:

• "Make @Sofia say 'I made this entire campaign before my second coffee' in shot 2"

• "Add a line in shot 4 where @Sofia turns to camera and says 'Try it for free'"

3. Edit the Animate & Dialogue Prompt directly

Click on a shot to open the Scene panel, then edit the Animate & Dialogue Prompt directly.

Example prompt:

"If you're creating content for your brand, this changes everything," @Sofia says, then holds up her phone to the camera.

Click Animate with AI to regenerate the shot with the updated dialogue.

Tips

• Keep dialogue short — it needs to fit naturally within the shot's duration

• Describe action alongside dialogue to guide how the character moves and reacts

• If dialogue isn't showing up as expected, check the Animate & Dialogue Prompt for that shot — it's where the final instructions live

• To change dialogue after a shot is already animated, update the prompt and re-animate the shot
