We believe that protecting the privacy of all people is of paramount importance. Protecting the privacy of children is especially important.

For account holders of student accounts we only collect a Pseudonym (nick name), username, and password to login to our services. This information is never shared or publicly displayed. Our Service does not address anyone under the age of 13 ("Children") as parents must create and maintain the account.
We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 13. If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your Children has provided us with Personal Data, please contact us. If we become aware that we have collected Personal Data from children without verification of parental consent, we take steps to remove that information from our servers.
We are proud supporters of the Student Privacy Pledge. Our collection and use of Student Records is governed by our contracts with the Schools, by our Privacy Policy, and by applicable privacy laws. For example, we work with Schools to help protect personal information from the Student's educational record, as required by the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act ("FERPA"), and to protect the personal information of students under 13 consistent with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act ("COPPA"). If you have any questions about reviewing, modifying, or deleting the personal information of a School User accessing the Service through a School partner agreement, please contact your School directly.
When our Service is used by a School in an educational setting, we may rely on the School to provide the requisite consent from the child's parents for Anomaly Studios, LLC to collect information from a School User under the age of 13. Look at our Terms of service to see more details on consent for children to use our services
Teachers can create accounts on behalf of Students. When registering an account for a Student who is under the age of 13 (a "Child"), the Teacher represents and warrants that they or the educational organization they work for has proper permission to register the Child to use our services.
By registering and creating an account for your child, your child will not be able to share information, including photos, videos, audio, and location, publicly and with others. If your child shares information publicly, it would have to be outside of our system and it is strongly advised to not do so as it may be indexable by search engines like Google Search. We are not responsible for the content uploaded by any user.
Anomaly Studios, LLC will not serve personalized ads to your child, which means ads will not be based on information from your child's account. Instead, ads may be served to a parent or teacher if they have visited our website for marketing purposes.

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page.

Automated Video Production Pipeline
This video guides you through setting up an automated video production pipeline, from selecting and testing brand voices using Eleven Labs to pairing them with digital avatars in HeyGen. By following the steps, you'll learn how to catalog and integrate voices, match them with visual characters, and generate preview videos for evaluation. Once you complete the video, you'll be able to efficiently create, test, and organize multiple spokesperson options for your brand's automated content generation. This process empowers you to streamline video production and build a scalable library of branded video assets.
Following are the key things you will be able to do after you watch this demo:
Identify suitable brand voices using generative AI tools.
Catalog and organize voice and avatar options for efficient selection.
Integrate third-party voices into video production platforms.
Pair voices with digital avatars to create compelling spokesperson combinations.
Generate and preview automated video content for evaluation.
Document and track production assets for streamlined workflow.
Select and finalize top spokesperson options for automated content generation.
Introduction to Automated Video Production Pipeline (00:00:00 – 00:00:59)
Josh kicks off the demo by outlining the goal: selecting brand-aligned voices and digital doubles (either your own clone or hired actors), organizing those assets, and laying out the end-to-end steps needed to spin up a fully automated video production pipeline.
Content Sequencing Concept and Cloning (00:00:59 – 00:02:20)
He explains the core idea of building a repeatable sequence of content—cloning a finished production over and over—so you can continually generate new videos by plugging different scripts into the same automated workflow.
Defining Digital Doubles and Voice Types (00:02:20 – 00:03:11)
Josh clarifies terminology (digital twin vs. digital double), walks through the two main “buckets” of voice assets (personality-based clones vs. spokesperson avatars), and discusses how to mix and match them depending on your brand needs.
Selecting Platforms for Generative AI and Deployment (00:03:11 – 00:04:00)
He emphasizes the importance of vetting your generative-AI tools—voice engines and video avatars—and making sure they’re compatible with your target platforms before committing to any given solution.
Brand-Focused Workflow and SRT Utilization (00:04:00 – 00:05:25)
Josh decides to focus on one streamlined method for this demo, using a single SRT transcript file as the “source of truth” for automation—underscoring that a clean, well-formatted SRT is absolute gold when you’re architecting an automated pipeline.
Importing SRT and Leveraging Automation (00:05:25 – 00:07:40)
He shows how to import the SRT into the voice-generation platform, highlighting how the time-coded script drives every subsequent step—from audio rendering to scene assembly.
Setting Up Voice Design in ElevenLabs (00:07:40 – 00:11:49)
A step-by-step walkthrough of testing voice presets, tweaking text lengths, integrating third-party voices, and crafting voice-design prompts to nail down the exact tone and style you want.

AMP LinkedIn Week 2
The first time I turned on my camera to record a course, I froze.
My hands were sweaty. My mouth went dry. My carefully written notes blurred together like nonsense. I stumbled through three sentences, stopped, hit delete, and shoved the camera back in its box.
For weeks, it sat on my desk like a silent judge.
Every day I avoided recording was another day I delayed building my membership. But I kept telling myself, I’ll start once I feel more confident. I’ll start when I have the right setup.
And here’s the truth: if you’ve ever felt this way, you’re not alone. Being on camera feels vulnerable. It forces you to see yourself the way others do.
But avoiding the camera doesn’t just hold back your content — it holds back your business.
Here’s what I eventually realized: it wasn’t that I lacked confidence as a teacher. I’d spoken to classrooms, led workshops, even presented on stage. Live teaching energized me.
But the moment the little red light blinked on, something changed.
Why? Because the camera felt like a spotlight without feedback. No nods, no smiles, no laughter to ease the tension. Just me, alone with my own self-doubt.
That self-doubt whispered:
Those whispers grew louder than my content.
And instead of pressing record, I started tinkering with gear. Maybe a better microphone would help. Or professional lights. Or a script so tight I couldn’t possibly mess it up.
Spoiler: none of that solved the real problem.
One day, a mentor asked me a question that changed everything.
“If you had 10 of your ideal clients sitting in a room right now, could you teach them?”
I laughed. “Of course.”
“Then do exactly that,” he said. “Talk to the camera like those 10 people are right there.”
That single shift broke the spell. I stopped seeing the camera as a machine judging me and started seeing it as a bridge connecting me to real people.
The first video I recorded after that wasn’t perfect. I stumbled over a phrase. My lighting was uneven. But when I watched it back, something struck me: it still worked. My teaching came through.
And when I finally shared it? My audience didn’t care about the stumbles. They cared about the clarity, the story, and the value.
That’s when I realized: confidence isn’t a prerequisite for recording. Confidence is the result of recording.
If the camera is holding you back from launching your course or membership, here’s a simple roadmap I wish I’d had sooner:
Step 1: Focus on One Person, Not an Audience
Imagine your best client sitting across from you. Record your video as if you’re speaking only to them. The intimacy makes your delivery warmer and more natural.
Step 2: Lower the Stakes
Stop treating your first recordings like a TED Talk. Start with a 3–5 minute tip video. One take, no pressure. The point isn’t perfection — it’s momentum.
Step 3: Create Comfort Through Familiarity
Record in a setting you already feel relaxed in — your home office, a quiet corner, even your kitchen table. Confidence grows where comfort lives.
Step 4: Watch Yourself With Curiosity, Not Criticism
When reviewing your video, ask: Did I explain this clearly? Would my client understand it? Don’t obsess over your hair, voice, or background. Your audience won’t.
Step 5: Practice Consistency Over Perfection
Confidence is a muscle. Record regularly, even if you never publish some takes. Every rep makes the next one easier.
For months, I thought I needed to become someone else to be confident on camera. Maybe more polished, more charismatic, more “professional.”
But the truth is, I didn’t need to become someone else. I needed to become more myself.
Confidence didn’t come from fancier gear or flawless delivery. It came from letting go of performance and focusing on connection.
Once I stopped trying to impress and started trying to serve, everything changed.
The longer you avoid the camera, the longer you delay your membership growth.
Video accelerates trust. It allows your audience to see your face, hear your voice, and feel your authenticity in ways text alone never can.
You don’t need to master video to get results. You just need to show up.
Because your audience isn’t waiting for a polished performer. They’re waiting for you — the real you, sharing what you know in the way only you can.
If camera nerves are holding you back, I’ve put together my On-Camera Confidence Checklist — the 7 steps I used to go from frozen to fluent on video.
It’s free, and it’s designed for entrepreneurs who want to record authentic, engaging lessons without waiting until they “feel ready.”
Send me a message and I'll connect you with what you need to move forward.
The fastest way to get better on camera is to start.
This checklist will help you take that first step today.
