This section describes the options available in Digital DNA studio that allow you to control and fine-tune the behavior of your Digital Person.
Behavior Tags
| Info |
|---|
Note: These used to be called Personality Tags. They are now in the Behavior Adjustments section, as Sentence-Based and Word-Based tags. |
Behavior adjustments using tags enable you to add a limited set of facial expressions and gestures to selected words, phrases and sentences in your digital person's speech. When Real-Time Gesturing is unavailable (due to language choice or Human OS version) Behavior Tags are the primary tool for adding appropriate head and neck gesturing and emotional expressions to your digital person's behavior.
When Real-Time gesturing is available, Behavior Tags can be used to adjust the autonomous behavior of the digital person:
You can use Behavior Tags to override Real-Time Gesturing for specific sentences or words spoken by your digital person.
You can use the behavior tags to override the autonomous behavior with something more appropriate to your use case. For example, you might want to add brand and product-related words to Smiling Gesture (Word-Based).
You can also use Neutral Long (Sentence-Based) and Neutral Short (Word-Based) to define sentences and words that will temporarily deactivate the real-time gesturing entirely.
