Abstract: Provided are systems and methods for realistic head turns and face animation synthesis. An example method includes receiving a source frame of a source video, where the source frame includes a head and a face of a source actor, generating source pose parameters corresponding to a pose of the head and a facial expression of the source actor; receiving a target image including a target head and a target face of a target person, determining target identity information associated with the target head and the target face of the target person, replacing source identity information in the source pose parameters with the target identity information to obtain further source pose parameters, and generating an output frame of an output video that includes a modified image of the target face and the target head adopting the pose of the head and the facial expression of the source actor.

Abstract: Provided are systems and methods for animating a single image of a human body and applying effects. An example method includes receiving an input image that includes an image of a body, receiving, through an interface, a user input including parameters associated with a motion, generating, based on the image of the body and the parameters associated with the motion, a video featuring the body repeating the motion, and providing an option to share the parameters associated with the motion with a further user of a further computing device. The method further includes, prior to generating the video, receiving a further user input including a hair animation effect selected from a list of hair animation effects, and while generating the video, applying the hair animation effect to a hair image in frames of the video.

Abstract: Provided are systems and methods for animating a single image of a human body and applying effects. An example method includes providing a database of motions; receiving an input image including a body of a person; receiving a user input including a motion selected from the database of motions; segmenting the input image into a body portion and a background portion; fitting the body portion to a hair model; generating, based on the body portion and the selected motion, a video featuring the body of the person repeating the selected motion; where generating the video includes detecting positions of key points associated with a head of the person in a frame of the video, generating an image of hair of the person based on the positions of the key points and the hair model, and inserting the image of the hair in the frame; and displaying the generated video.

Abstract: Provided are systems and methods for realistic head turns and face animation synthesis. An example method may include receiving frames of a source video with the head and the face of a source actor. The method may then proceed with generating sets of source pose parameters that represent positions of the head and facial expressions of the source actor. The method may further include receiving at least one target image including the target head and the target face of a target person, determining target identity information associated with the target face, and generating an output video based on the target identity information and the sets of source pose parameters. Each frame of the output video can include an image of the target face modified to mimic at least one of the positions of the head of the source actor and at least one of facial expressions of the source actor.
