The scenario requires quick creation of a training video using a custom avatar and voiceover while adhering to zero cost for production.
Google Vids is an AI-powered video creation app (part of Google Workspace/Gemini features) designed to make video creation accessible for teams without the overhead of traditional production. It specifically offers features like AI avatars and voiceovers for content such as trainings, demos, and onboarding videos. This directly addresses the need for a low-cost, fast solution for a new hire training video with custom branding elements (custom avatars and voiceovers are a key feature of the tool).
Option A, Imagen, is a Google foundation model specialized for image generation, not the creation of structured, narrated training videos with avatars. Option B, using the Gemini app, is primarily for text, code, and multimodal chat/generation, and is not the dedicated Google application for video production. Option C, training a model with Vertex AI, is a highly technical, time-consuming, and expensive endeavor that violates the need for a quick and zero-cost solution. Therefore, using the purpose-built, gen AI-enabled Google Vids application is the correct and most efficient choice.
