Animate3d
Overview :
Animate3D is an innovative framework for generating animations for any static 3D model. Its core ideas include two main parts: 1) Propose a new multi-view video diffusion model (MV-VDM) based on multi-view rendering of static 3D objects and trained on our large-scale multi-view video dataset (MV-Video). 2) Introduce a framework combining reconstruction and 4D score distillation sampling (4D-SDS) that utilizes multi-view video diffusion prior to animate 3D objects. Animate3D enhances spatial and temporal consistency through the design of new spatiotemporal attention modules, and maintains the identity of static 3D models through multi-view rendering. Additionally, Animate3D proposes an effective two-stage process for generating animations for 3D models: First, it directly reconstructs motion from the generated multi-view video, and then refines appearance and motion through the introduced 4D-SDS.
Target Users :
Animate3D targets audiences including 3D animators, game developers, filmmakers, and any professionals who need to generate animations for 3D models. They can generate high-quality animations quickly through Animate3D, saving time and cost while maintaining the natural smoothness and consistency of the animation.
Use Cases
3D animators use Animate3D to generate realistic animations for characters in movies.
Game developers leverage Animate3D to generate smooth movements for virtual characters in games.
In the educational field, teachers can use Animate3D to generate animations for 3D models in teaching materials, increasing interactivity and fun in teaching.

Animate Anyone
Animate Anyone aims to generate character videos from static images driven by signals. Leveraging the power of diffusion models, we propose a novel framework tailored for character animation. To maintain consistency of complex appearance features present in the reference image, we design ReferenceNet to merge detailed features via spatial attention. To ensure controllability and continuity, we introduce an efficient pose guidance module to direct character movements and adopt an effective temporal modeling approach to ensure smooth cross-frame transitions between video frames. By extending the training data, our method can animate any character, achieving superior results in character animation compared to other image-to-video approaches. Moreover, we evaluate our method on benchmarks for fashion video and human dance synthesis, achieving state-of-the-art results.
