# Audio-to-Video

> Sync character lip movement and expressions to dialogue audio

Audio-to-Video models analyze dialogue audio and generate synchronized lip movements, facial expressions, and subtle head motions for characters. In Automat Studio, these models power the Dialogue and Lipsync workflow, automatically aligning character animation to voice performances.

<Note>
  These models are used in the Dialogue and Lipsync tab of Shot Studio to automatically sync character lip movements and expressions to dialogue audio.
