Hi HN,
I’ve been working on Wan-Animate, a tool that brings static characters to life through motion transfer and holistic replication.
Key features include:
Animate static characters by transferring movements and expressions from a reference video
Seamless character replacement with consistent gestures, expressions, and style
Video generation up to 120 seconds in 480p or 720p
Accurate lip–audio alignment and realistic expression transfer
Multimodal instruction control using video, image, and text prompts
The goal is to make character animation feel natural and adaptable across open scenarios, not just limited templates.
I’d love feedback from the HN community on:
Features you’d like in an AI-powered animation tool
Use cases where motion transfer could be most impactful (games, avatars, education, etc.)
Thoughts on scalability, ethics, and creative applications
Thanks for reading — looking forward to your thoughts!
