About us

English, acknowledged as an international and global language, is spoken by approximately 2 billion people, making it the most popular language despite its lack of official status. Companies and creators aiming to communicate effectively with a broad audience often choose this language, believing it will attract more customers and build stronger relationships.

But what if there's a better and, more importantly, faster way to reach customers and gain global audience recognition, **regardless of language barriers?**

New AI tools are rapidly advancing, introducing surprising innovations in various fields. Regarding language matters, there are already several "strong players" in the market, but in our opinion, **HeyGen** deserves the most attention. It's not just an excellent tool for generating virtual avatars (although truly impressive), but, most importantly, it effortlessly **allows you to create video content in any language worldwide, in your own voice!**

Sounds like magic? Yes, the level of technological advancement truly astonishes!

Impressed by HeyGen's capabilities, we thought about how to use it to create engaging content on social media. It was early December, and the holiday atmosphere was building up, so we almost simultaneously came up with the idea: we'll create video holiday greetings for our international clients. We wrote the greeting content and decided which languages we wanted to speak. Then came the technical part, which was my task. I delved into the instructions on the tool's website, familiarized myself with its operation, and did a few trials... And there it is! You can see the results [HERE](https://www.instagram.com/reel/C1HGi0jqR4W/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==)

#### Quick guide

The whole process was gratifying and sometimes even amusing, but in the end, I was left with a few thoughts. Therefore, I present **a quick guide and some important tips that will help you create a satisfying avatar speaking in any language in the world:**

**Video** - you must upload a minimum 2-minute video sample to the tool, where you or another person speaks any text. Of course, **good video quality is essential**. You can use a phone, but the better the quality of the recording is, the better the final result, so I recommend using a camera.
TIP 1: Use a tripod and set up the best, straight frame. Ensure good lighting on the person's face, ideally with no shadows. Also, **think about the background** - keep it neat, tidy, and clean - remember, **it will always be visible behind your avatar**, and you probably don't want to cut it out in post-production cables sticking out somewhere ;). Of course, to avoid background problems, you can use a green screen.
TIP 2: For the best effect, edit the video in an editing program first - adjust colors, play with contrast, etc. Do everything to make the material satisfying before uploading it to HeyGen.

**Speech/sound** - an excellent audio track right after the video is crucial for achieving a satisfying effect. The content of your speech is entirely irrelevant; it's about how you say it. Speak naturally, but try to pause between some sentences.
TIP 1: The instructions on the HeyGen website suggest taking a 1-2 second break after each sentence, but this has a bad effect. Speak clearly, loudly, and energetically. And the most important, **emotions in the voice matter - a sad tone will result in a sad avatar**.
TIP 2: It's good to "spice up" the soundtrack before uploading it to the tool. Basic editing is enough: noise reduction and gentle voice strengthening. (If you don't know how to do this, you can find plenty of short tutorials on YouTube on how to do it).

**Posture and appearance** - stand upright and have a natural facial expression. Look at the camera constantly, but focus only a little on it. From my observations, natural eye movements to the sides are better than excessive focus on the lens. You can also gesture - but don't overdo it - don't do anything you wouldn't do in a regular conversation. **Round, large gestures are not suitable.**
TIP1: What you wear for recording depends on you, but remember that due to the possibility of glitches in the avatar, HeyGen does not recommend wearing jewellery and glasses, and excessive facial hair is also not advisable.



#### All set?

Upload the video to the tool. The program will also ask you to add a short confirmation of your identity. Click "consent" and wait a few minutes until Hey Gen generates your avatar. And that's it!

![blog-hey gen_grafika 1_high (1).png](https://btnw-strapi-prod.dev.btndev.space/uploads/blog_hey_gen_grafika_1_high_1_261a9d6980.png)

Enter any text in the box below. Add pauses by inserting the clock icon. **Pay attention to spelling and punctuation - this mainly affects the tone of the generated speech.** On the right side, you can choose language. The program will automatically translate the text. Click “submit” and enjoy the results.
**In the free plan, you can create up to a 2-minute video.**

![blog-hey gen_grafika 2_high (1).png](https://btnw-strapi-prod.dev.btndev.space/uploads/blog_hey_gen_grafika_2_high_1_a5f6e0349e.png)

👁️ Interestingly, **the tool also allows the translation of previously recorded content**. On the bottom left of the HeyGen homepage, there is a "Video Translate" button.
Upload your video, choose one of the available languages, and set the number of speakers. The results of such translation are less natural but still very impressive.

![blog-hey gen_grafika 3_cover_high (1).png](https://btnw-strapi-prod.dev.btndev.space/uploads/blog_hey_gen_grafika_3_cover_high_1_c80f0297f2.png)


The tool surprises and opens a new way to create international content. The primary and indisputable advantages of this solution are:
- Maximum time savings
- Super easy content creation
- Effortless translation of content
- Ability to localize ready-made content for any market
- Relatively low subscription cost - starting from $24/month for 15 minutes of generated video

#### The immense potential

In today’s connected world, tools such as HeyGen stands out as a transformative tool, breaking down language barriers to unify global communication. This journey, from creating multilingual holiday greetings to mastering its innovative features, showcases the shift towards universally accessible content.

The experience with HeyGen reveals the immense potential of AI in bridging communication gaps, heralding a future where stories and messages are boundless. In this new era, content speaks every language, making global understanding and connection not just possible, but seamless.

Tech News January 2025 - Newsletter Highlights

Every year, we uphold a cherished tradition at our company: releasing a special edition of company-branded hoodies. Each collection carries a theme that reflects who we are, what we do, and the unique culture we’ve built together. This time, we decided to bring a bit of fun and creativity with a theme that resonates with us all: **a board game.**

After all, **life is a kind of game, isn’t it?**
![blog_grafika2.jpg](https://bitnoise-cms.btn.fyi/uploads/blog_grafika2_8a33518e6f.jpg)

#### Ups and Downs of Office Life

**The game board is located on the back of the hoodie.** Additionally, we have prepared a special card with the game rules, which are inspired by the ups and downs of office life, with game board squares depicting everyday work challenges and small victories. From the little things - **like getting stuck for a turn after forgetting to empty the coffee machine grounds** - to the bigger wins - **like moving ahead three spaces for a perfectly executed daily meeting** - our board game layout captures the essence of our workplace in the most playful way possible.

Of course, we couldn’t resist slipping in a few **inside jokes** that only our team would understand. Look closely, and you’ll spot nods to our beloved **yellow “therapeutic” couch** and even our legendary **Adam Małysz mug** - both of which have their own well-earned place in our company lore.


![blog_grafika1.jpg](https://bitnoise-cms.btn.fyi/uploads/blog_grafika1_72010617f5.jpg)


#### Classic Disney Cartoons and Rubber Hose Animation

This year’s hoodie design is important for us in another way. While in previous years we collaborated with external artists, this time we decided to keep things in-house. Who better to capture our spirit than one of our own? **Łukasz Berliński,** our talented designer, took the lead on the artwork, drawing inspiration from classic Disney cartoons and Rubber Hose animation. The result? **A beautifully nostalgic yet fresh take on our company culture** - one that we’re absolutely in love with.
![blog_grafika3.jpg](https://bitnoise-cms.btn.fyi/uploads/blog_grafika3_957c965294.jpg)

#### Fashion Style Photos

Great hoodies deserve great photos, and we had just the person for the job. **Kasia Grabowska,** our office manager and professional photographer, worked her magic to give this year’s collection a stylish, fashion-forward look. We wanted to step away from the typical geek aesthetic and lean into something more modern and trend-driven. And we think we nailed it! The photos are nothing short of amazing.
![blog_grafika4.jpg](https://bitnoise-cms.btn.fyi/uploads/blog_grafika4_ebc5479994.jpg)



>Whether you’re tackling daily stand-ups, navigating project deadlines, or just kicking back on the yellow couch, **this year’s merch is a reminder that work - and life - should always have a bit of fun in it.**

Google I/O 2025: Innovations That Will Shape the Year Ahead – May Special Newsletter

Welcome to the next episode of our **“Bitnoise Tool Set”** series, where we dive into the technologies and workflows that power our teams. Today, we’re focusing on the toolkit of a **UX/UI Designer** – the essential tools they use to design, prototype, and deliver intuitive, scalable digital experiences.

This article takes the form of an interview with  our senior designer, offering firsthand insights into their daily design workflow. We’ll explore not only the creative toolkit – **design software, prototyping tools, and collaboration platforms** – but also some more casual topics like **sources of inspiration, favorite side hobbies, and personal productivity hacks.**

Whether you’re an aspiring **UX/UI Designer** or just curious about our tech ecosystem and design, this guide will give you a behind-the-scenes look at how our team works.

Let’s dive in!

#### Łukasz Berliński, UX/UI Designer

I’ve been part of the design industry for **over 17 years.** My first commercial web design projects date back to my university days. Although I hold a degree in Automation Engineering, I fully transitioned into the design field early in my career.

Today, I specialize in designing both **desktop and mobile applications,** though I also have experience in other areas of design.

Outside of work, I’m passionate about 3D printing, retro gaming consoles, and Lego.

#### Essential Tools

- My everyday toolkit includes **Figma, Miro, After Effects, Photoshop,** and **Illustrator.**

- In terms of hardware, I work on a MacBook Pro with high-quality monitors to ensure precision and clarity.

#### Design Systems

I regularly work with design systems – ranging from standardized frameworks like Google’s Material Design, to custom systems developed for clients. **I’ve also created several systems from scratch,** both simple and complex, depending on project needs.

#### Prototyping and Testing

I primarily use **Figma** for prototyping – it’s fast, efficient, and allows for immediate feedback. **Prototypes are a standard part of my process** and help clients preview the application’s functionality before development begins. **This early validation step is crucial for aligning expectations and preventing issues down the line.**

For usability testing, I tailor the approach and tools based on the project, but always prioritize quick iterations based on real user feedback.


#### Collaboration

In the past, I used **[Zeplin](https://zeplin.io/)** during the **[Sketch](https://www.sketch.com/)** era, but nowadays I rely almost exclusively on **Figma.** Its **Inspect** and **Dev Mode** features are more than sufficient for efficient handoff.

For more complex projects, I always schedule alignment meetings with developers to make sure we’re fully synced on interactions, animations, and overall design intent.

For communication and project management, I’ve worked with tools like **Slack, [Trello,](https://trello.com/home) [Asana,](https://asana.com/) and [Notion](https://www.notion.com/)** – whatever best fits the team setup.

#### File Management & Backup

I take file security seriously. As the saying goes: _There are two kinds of people: those who back up their data – and those who will._

After learning the hard way years ago, I now maintain both local backups (via **NAS with an off-site mirror**) and cloud backups to ensure nothing gets lost.

#### Automation & Productivity

Absolutely – **AI has been a game-changer.** Tasks that used to take hours can now be done in seconds: generating avatars and illustrations, filling prototypes with sample user data, or extending and adapting images for better composition. What was once tedious manual work can now be done with just a few clicks.

#### Workflow Optimization

I constantly **explore new tools and workflows that improve efficiency,** especially for task management, time tracking, and team collaboration. Custom keyboard **shortcuts, Figma plugins, and smart templates** are part of my everyday workflow.

#### Learning & Growth

I make it a point to stay current with new features in design tools and evolving UX trends.
I regularly listen to design-related podcasts from **[Design Practice](https://open.spotify.com/show/7Ln0idf6W9q6M7CEyWS3Xb?si=2LIXBnpsRxSuI92jpe6C9Q&nd=1&dlsi=f01ceb0c3491469d),** **[product dissign](https://open.spotify.com/show/22rEcROWUO4tqcvwSOSB84?si=IoiAfBtSSOKO50U7VhVi9w&nd=1&dlsi=a6c90f76021d4761),** **[UX po Godzinach](https://open.spotify.com/show/1SOUA8UPfusGYKE1oj2YTC?si=pDq9G1k5QJKmJMi2fa2LjA&nd=1&dlsi=dc65ae24f8854740),** read industry articles, and follow YouTube channels and Reddit communities focused on UI/UX.

#### All-Time Favorite Tool

Today, it’s probably **Figma** – but deep down, old-school **Photoshop CS3** still holds a special place in my heart.

#### Advice for New Designers

Learn by observing those with more experience. Creativity is essential, but many design problems have already been solved – **don’t waste time reinventing the wheel.**

And most importantly: **communicate.** Early in your career, it might feel like designers and developers are on opposing teams – but **with clear, respectful communication, that barrier disappears.** In the end, you’re working toward the same goal: **delivering a great product.**

#### Quick Questions

- Light mode or dark mode? → **Dark mode**

- Browser? → **Firefox**

Bitnoise Tool Set, Part 3: UX/UI Designer

#### June-July 2025 Tech News 

In our latest newsletter, we've gathered the most fascinating updates from the tech world, sprinkled with intriguing tidbits from its many orbits. Our subscribers were the first to get their hands on these cutting-edge insights, delivered straight to their inboxes.

![MAIN TOPIC_grok-musk.png](https://bitnoise-cms.btn.fyi/uploads/MAIN_TOPIC_grok_musk_0d0e11941a.png)
#### Main Topic: **Grok 4 Leans on Elon Musk’s Views**

Just a week after Elon Musk’s AI chatbot Grok 4 referred to itself as “MechaHitler” and echoed antisemitic stereotypes, it’s come to light that **Grok references Musk’s X posts when responding to controversial topics.**

In its rollout of Grok 4, Elon Musk’s xAI appears to have introduced a surprising design choice: when faced with sensitive topics, Grok 4 reportedly consults Elon Musk’s X (Twitter) posts to shape its responses. TechCrunch’s testing revealed that the AI chatbot explicitly says it’s “searching for Elon Musk views” before answering these questions.

While Grok 4 aims to be **“maximally truth-seeking"** this founder-centric bias raises concerns about its independence and objectivity. It’s designed to reflect Musk’s views when addressing complex social issues, which may undermine trust in its neutrality.

Despite growing concerns over bias and ethics, the U.S. government has awarded xAI - Grok’s creator - a contract worth up **to $200 million to help modernize the Defense Department.
