Feature requests

Hi, I use Pictory to create video by pictures. I see Pictory have a feature called "visual zoom and pan". I see it is a useful feature, however it's very simple and cannot modify as I want, such as speed of zoom, zoom position etc. So can Pictory can upgrade this feature? Thank for reading.

To add more variety to the automated machine voice-overs in your videos

This is again a common ask from most of our customers.

To create more compelling video stories with fresh and relevant visuals

I prefer Texts as Logo instead of PNG logos. Sometimes both.

When creating videos with Pictory and WellSaid labs, the last frame of my video fades the audio which fades out my AI speaker... Being able to turn Fade In/Out on video would be a fantastic feature... Thank you for your consideration

I would love to have an option to add pauses to imported voice overs. Now when I sync a voice over to my video in which I’m for example explaining something on screen, sometimes the voice over talks to fast. I would love an option to edit this inside pictory.

Ken Burns made infamous the use of pan/zoom across still images to convey motion. Pictory's Pan&Zoom implementation should do this, but it is completely broken and unusable - and can not possibly produce good results without input from the user, which it does not do! You need a UI that allows the user to select 1) an image 2) a source rectangle 3) a destination rectangle. This allows the user full control over the transition, speed of movement, etc. Pictory only has implemented step 1. How could Pictory possibly get a good result without this - how do you know where the start/end of the transition is? I'll bet you could have this implemented in two weeks from design to final QA if your team really tried. https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rippletraining.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2015%2F01%2Fimage5.jpg&f=1&nofb=1&ipt=ccac7e63ebd85b81d9aa36af3f437ae1a581a8a3815ba3de5861a402314cd6c2&ipo=images

Premium voices speak at their own speed, but often times you want to slow down a performance for effect. I don't mean altering the voice to sound slow, but have the option for more time between words, and the option to pause so the next line isn't delivered back to back. There's only so much you can do with Split clip which has serious limitiations, especially with timing and visual overlap issues. TTS [Slower] doesn't work, or if it can work, it would need to not those words as it does now. Thanks, Matthew

Dark romance Morally grey For edits

The the transitions are too fast. We should be able to control the speed of it.

Create nice videos with variety of animation styles for the Text which appears on the video

I hope Pictory can add AI human talking avatar. And e can have personalised face and custom voice.

Add emojis, short graphics (logos) etc. as a layer over the video scene

We are adding a new style asked by many of our customers which has heading and captions together on the video scenes. We will first roll it out for video editing scenario and then for text to video scenarios too
