How to generate looks

You can completely change how your avatar looks without starting from scratch. Here is how to update your avatar's outfit and appearance, step by step.

Step 1: Select your avatar

Head to the Avatars section in the left sidebar. From the Switch Avatar menu, pick the avatar you want to update.

Step 2: Choose a starting look

Select an existing look as your starting point, click on it, and hit Edit Look.

Step 3: Describe your new look

You have two options to define the style you are going for:

  • type a description into the prompt box to describe the vibe you want
  • browse HeyGen's sample library for inspiration

If you see something you like in the sample library, click Remix Photo and HeyGen will place your avatar into that same scene.

Step 4: Add scene elements (optional)

You can also bring in specific products using scene elements. This feature will be covered in more detail in a separate video.

Step 5: Choose orientation and generate

Select your preferred orientation, then hit Generate. HeyGen will produce three variations for you to choose from.

Step 6: Review your variations

Hover over any variation to:

  • delete it
  • pull the prompt back up to refine it for your next look
