  • Publication number: 20240087204
    Abstract: Described are systems and methods for generating personalized videos with customized text messages. An example method includes receiving an input text, a video template including a sequence of frame images, and at least one parameter for animation of the input text across the sequence of frame images, generating, based on the input text and the at least one parameter for animation, a configuration file including a text style for the input text for a frame in the sequence of frame images, and rendering, based on the configuration file, an output frame of an output video, where the output frame includes the frame in the sequence of frame images and a layer, and where the layer includes the input text stylized based on the text style. The method further includes providing an option enabling a user to change the at least one parameter for animation.

  • Patent number: 11694417
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for template-based generation of personalized videos. An example method may commence with receiving video configuration data including a sequence of frame images, a sequence of face area parameters defining positions of a face area in the frame images, and a sequence of skin masks defining positions of a skin area of a part of the at least one body in the frame images. The method may continue with receiving an image of a source face. The method may further include determining color data associated with the source face. The method may include recoloring the skin area of the part of the at least one body in the frame image and inserting the image of the source face into the frame image at a position determined by face area parameters corresponding to the frame image to generate an output frame of an output video.

  • Patent number: 11645331
    Abstract: A method for searching and ranking personalized videos includes receiving a user request via a communication chat between a user and another user. The user request includes a phrase. The method performs, based on the phrase, a search in a first pool of pre-rendered videos to determine a first subset of relevant videos ranked according to first rankings. The pre-rendered videos include pre-rendered text messages. The method performs a search in a second pool of customized videos to determine a second subset of relevant videos ranked according to second rankings. The customized videos include text messages modified by the user. The method generates a set of videos. The set of videos includes a first number of pre-rendered videos from the first subset of relevant videos and a second number of customized videos from the second subset of relevant videos. The method presents the set of videos via the communication chat.
