Alibaba just open-sourced the world's FIRST AI dubbing model that handles multi-speaker scenes. It's called Fun-CineForge and it nails what every other dubbing model fails at: Lip-sync. Emotion. Voice stability. Timing. Across multiple characters. Not a single open-source model could do this before. Here's how it works: ↓ Tongyi Lab Alibaba Group

1/2 Bring your characters to life like never before! We're officially launching Wan2.2-Animate, a unified model for high-fidelity character animation and replacement. The model weights and inference code are now open-source for the entire community! • Character Animation: Feed it a character image and a reference video, and it will animate your character by precisely replicating the source's expressions and movements. • Character Replacement: Seamlessly swap the animated character into the original video's scene. It automatically matches the lighting and color tone for perfect environmental integration.

This is a Lora application for generating multiple characters. It can generate characters suitable for any scene from almost any angle, and it can generate multiple characters. Tongyi Lab This is what my colleague trained.

This shouldn't be possible. Wan 2.2 Animate lip syncs, animates, and swaps characters from just a photo. We made a COMPLETE (and free) guide to show you how 👇

AI music videos are so dope. Someone made this from a reference animation and character images with Wan Animate - and it's weirdly entrancing. (from u/luckyyirish)

I tested a simple story idea using fruit characters, and it came out more like a real short scene than I expected. The characters had expressions, reactions, and a full situation without me needing to animate anything myself. I'll show you how I put it together. ↓

Kling AI 2.6 motion control is freaking awesome. All you need is one reference video and a character image. It handles facial expressions, body movement, and timing automatically. It even maintains consistent character details across frames. Here’s the full workflow 👇 1/6 #Kling #KlingAI

Wan 2.2 Animate is CRAZY and it actually excels at 3 things from my tests: 1. Lip syncing (so far the best open source I have seen, beating Runway Act2) 2. Consistent lighting & shadows with color tone replication when you swap a character 3. It keeps the replacement character aligned with realistic body dynamics even beyond the face. It is great for full body replacement

AI characters are starting to feel much more realistic. One of the biggest challenges in AI video has always been making characters move naturally, from body language to facial expressions and small details. This example shows how far the technology has come. The character feels more alive, and the transitions between movements feel much smoother than traditional AI-generated clips. What excites me most is that AI video is moving beyond just creating beautiful images. It’s becoming a tool for building characters, telling stories, and exploring creative ideas in new ways. With tools like Newtake_KR, creators can spend more time focusing on ideas and less time worrying about production limitations. AI video is evolving from visual generation into a new form of creative expression. #DreaminaSeedance25 #Seedance25 #AIVideo #Newtake

Using reference sheets with Omni has now become my favorite method for consistent storytelling with AI so I built a Freepik space that allows you to generate these reference sheets (characters & items) with ease, here you go This method allows you to add a character reference sheet, item reference sheet and a location and combine all elements into a single video with multiple camera angle changes using Kling AI 3.0's Omni feature. This feature works wonderfully for consistent storytelling. Enjoy!👍
