They are digital characters created using very sophisticated CGI. They come with their own storylines and character profiles.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, the creators come up with this as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They mimic the persona of an actual social media influencer. Some of them look quite realistic. You may mistake them for real IG accounts. Others don&#8217;t attempt to look like humans. Instead, they are colorful and more cartoon-like.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like real social media influencers, they have specific interests and talents. These characteristics inform the brands they promote and how they engage with followers. Of course, there is a tech mastermind behind all of this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Between 2017 and 2019, the number of virtual influencers increased. Cartoons and computer-generated images are always fascinating to human beings.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Around this time, the idea of an influencer was getting popular as well. It does seem natural to marry the two to create a virtual influencer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It helped that big names were pushing these creations. Fenty Beauty and Prada used a popular AI creation to promote their brands. With this kind of visibility, the concept received intrigue from the general public.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"570\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/magazineluiza-570x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"Virtual Influencers Are Warping Reality As We Know It, image \u21162\" class=\"wp-image-5748\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/magazineluiza-570x1024.jpeg 570w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/magazineluiza-167x300.jpeg 167w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/magazineluiza-768x1380.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/magazineluiza-855x1536.jpeg 855w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/magazineluiza-13x24.jpeg 13w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/magazineluiza-20x36.jpeg 20w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/magazineluiza-27x48.jpeg 27w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/magazineluiza.jpeg 1125w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 570px) 100vw, 570px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Do_Virtual_Influencers_Work_So_Well_for_Brands\"><\/span>How Do Virtual Influencers Work So Well for Brands<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The idea of AI social media influencers might be a little disturbing. Why would an adult want to follow a glorified cartoon? Well, we have to think about the problems with <a href=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/instagram-influencers-your-vip-pass-into-the-inner-circle\">Instagram influencers<\/a> now. Virtual influencers solve a lot of these issues very easily.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, how do virtual influencers work out for brands? Let\u2019s talk about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_They_Are_Easy_To_Control\"><\/span>1. They Are Easy To Control<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Human influencers are dynamic. They evolve with time and respond to external stimuli. They have their shining moments. They also have times that they want to etch from their record permanently. Brands can\u2019t always afford to wipe a slate clean. They stand to lose a lot from an influencer making a simple human mistake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Think about all the apology videos you\u2019ve seen on YouTube. Think of when creators recant previous mistakes with a Notes app apology. That won\u2019t be the case with virtual influencers. The powers behind them can predict and program their every word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brands don\u2019t have to worry about a slip of the tongue or a 2014 tweet. There are no wild cards when using a virtual influencer. The concept of \u201ccanceling\u201d an AI creation is somewhat ridiculous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_They_Dont_Age\"><\/span>2. They Don\u2019t Age<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Think of all the controversy your favorite Disney stars create by simply growing up. You met them <a href=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/social-media-apps-for-teens-what-you-need-to-know\">as a 12-year-old<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, they are full-blown adults who want to do adult things. They have to alter their brand to fit their true personas completely. That doesn&#8217;t always sit well with the demographic that knew them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some people want to grow. But brands may want them to stay the same. Or, they at least don&#8217;t want them to be controversial. Do you know what doesn&#8217;t age? An AI-generated computer image. Like cartoons on TV, a virtual influencer can stay the same for as long as you want.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aging in Hollywood seems taboo. People don&#8217;t like looking at social media and seeing celebrities age, and they don&#8217;t have to face the realities of life with a virtual influencer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_They_Are_Flexible\"><\/span>3. They Are Flexible<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Using influencer marketing can be expensive for a brand. It costs way more than gifts \u2014 sometimes thousands of dollars \u2014 and may even cost a brand trip to Fiji or Joshua Tree. Brands will have to fly out influencers on their dime.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, they have to hope that these influencers choose to promote their brands well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can\u2019t put AI social media influencers on a plane. But you can edit them in these various locations. You can superimpose your products into images with a virtual influencer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You won&#8217;t have to worry about the potential drama surrounding multiple influencers in the same place. The flexibility of a virtual influencer is a huge selling point.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"565\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/gioalemann-565x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"Virtual Influencers Are Warping Reality As We Know It, image \u21163\" class=\"wp-image-5749\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/gioalemann-565x1024.jpeg 565w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/gioalemann-165x300.jpeg 165w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/gioalemann-768x1393.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/gioalemann-847x1536.jpeg 847w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/gioalemann-13x24.jpeg 13w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/gioalemann-20x36.jpeg 20w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/gioalemann-26x48.jpeg 26w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/gioalemann.jpeg 1125w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 565px) 100vw, 565px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Create_a_Virtual_Influencer_for_Your_Brand\"><\/span>How To Create a Virtual Influencer for Your Brand<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>And the benefits of using a virtual influencer are clear. Now, you want to find out the logistics of actually creating one. Read on to find out how to create a virtual influencer for your brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Come_Up_With_a_Personality\"><\/span>1. Come Up With a Personality<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is going to be a lot like creating a personal brand. You have to decide which side you will share on social media. Maybe you want to focus on being a <a href=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/how-to-become-a-fitness-influencer-and-make-the-real-gains\">fitness influencer<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/how-to-become-a-beauty-influencer-with-our-gorgeous-tips\">beauty content creator<\/a>. It works the same way when you&#8217;re creating virtual influencers. What will be the overall brand?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What will be the background story? Do they have particular values, hobbies, and interests? It may sound strange to do all of this for a non-human entity. But the reality is that you have to create something as human as possible. And humans have backstories, values, and shortcomings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Create_a_Design\"><\/span>2. Create a Design<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>What will this character look like? Do you want to take the route of looking as human as possible? Maybe you don&#8217;t mind if the character looks like a cartoon. There is some value in creating a racially ambiguous character, as well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, for people to fall in love with this creation, its appearance must be certain, and its style must be clear.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Give_It_a_Storyline\"><\/span>3. Give It a Storyline<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Regular influencers have to keep others entertained. They have to do things every day to maintain an audience.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What will your artificial intelligence creation do to entertain followers? Will it have friends? Will it prepare for events? Will it have problems that it vents to its followers about?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s not enough to entertain people with its existence. Yes, the concept of a realistic AI image is interesting, but people will get over it soon. You will need to have a captivating storyline to maintain an audience. Even Great TV cartoons have writers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Much_Does_It_Cost_To_Create_a_Virtual_Influencer_for_My_Online_Brand\"><\/span>How Much Does It Cost To Create a Virtual Influencer for My Online Brand?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We don&#8217;t expect you to have the capabilities to create this influencer on hand. The technology you need is new, advanced, and expensive. You are likely going to have to outsource the creation of this influencer to an external body. So, how much does it cost to create a virtual influencer?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ll answer this with some help from FinModelsLab. According to them, creating a convincing virtual influencer could cost approximately US$1.2 million. It seems the animation, coupled with AI technology, will rack up to a pretty penny.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are more cost-effective pages on Instagram. Meme pages are low-effort yet effective. Some people even put their pets at the center stage by being pet influencers.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"561\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/kyraonig-561x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"Virtual Influencers Are Warping Reality As We Know It, image \u21164\" class=\"wp-image-5750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/kyraonig-561x1024.jpeg 561w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/kyraonig-164x300.jpeg 164w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/kyraonig-768x1402.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/kyraonig-841x1536.jpeg 841w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/kyraonig-1122x2048.jpeg 1122w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/kyraonig-13x24.jpeg 13w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/kyraonig-20x36.jpeg 20w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/kyraonig-26x48.jpeg 26w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/kyraonig.jpeg 1125w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 561px) 100vw, 561px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Many_Virtual_Influencers_Are_There\"><\/span>How Many Virtual Influencers Are There?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are currently over 200 virtual influencers posting among us on Instagram.
