What if you could just talk to your camera — and get a fully animated video back? That's exactly what Golpo's new Own Narration feature does.
What is Own Narration?
Golpo's Own Narration (also called the Webcam feature) lets you record yourself speaking directly on the Golpo platform — and automatically transforms your speech into a beautifully animated video. Your webcam recording appears as an inset within the final video, so your audience sees both the animated visuals and you presenting.
No separate recording software. No editing. No syncing audio to visuals. Just hit record, speak your content, and Golpo handles the rest.
Watch it in action:
How It Works
Step 1: Enable Own Narration
On the video creation page, toggle on Own Narration. This switches the input mode from text prompt to webcam recording.
Step 2: Record Your Video
Click the video recording button and start speaking. Record yourself explaining a topic, narrating a lesson, walking through a concept — whatever you'd normally say to your audience. This is all done directly within the Golpo platform, no external tools needed.
Step 3: Choose Your Inset Position
Pick where your webcam video appears in the final output — Top Left, Top Right, Bottom Left, or Bottom Right.
Step 4: Get Your Animated Video
Golpo takes your speech, converts it into animated visuals, and composites your webcam recording as an inset — giving you a polished, professional video with both your face and dynamic animations.
Why This Matters
Until now, creating a video with both a presenter and supporting visuals meant juggling screen recording software, a camera, an editor, and hours of post-production. Own Narration collapses all of that into a single step.
This is especially powerful for:
Teachers and professors
Record a lecture naturally and get animated visuals generated automatically to support your explanation. Students see your face and the content.
Course creators
Build polished lesson videos without a production team. Just talk through the material and let Golpo animate it.
Corporate trainers
Create onboarding or training videos where the presenter is visible alongside illustrated concepts.
Content creators
Add a personal touch to explainer videos. Your audience connects with your face while the animations keep them engaged.
Sales and marketing teams
Record product walkthroughs or pitch videos with professional animated visuals backing you up.
What Makes It Different
Other tools ask you to record a video, then separately create animations, then manually edit them together. Golpo does it all in one flow:
✅ Speech → Animation: Your spoken words are automatically converted into matching animated visuals
✅ Built-in recording: No need to leave the platform or use external webcam software
✅ Flexible inset placement: Choose which corner your webcam feed appears in
✅ One output: You get a single, ready-to-share video with everything composited together
