• Abstract: The objective of face animation is to generate dynamic and expressive talking head videos from a single reference face, utilizing driving conditions derived from either video or audio inputs. Current approaches often require fine-tuning for specific identities and frequently fail to produce expressive videos due to the limited effectiveness of Wav2Pose modules. To facilitate the generation of one-shot and more consecutive talking head videos, we refine an existing Image2Video model by integrating a Face Locator and Motion Frame mechanism. We subsequently optimize the model using extensive human face video datasets, significantly enhancing its ability to produce high-quality and expressive talking head videos. Additionally, we develop a demo platform using the Gradio framework, which streamlines the process, enabling users to quickly create customized talking head videos.

  We propose a two-stage generic framework that supports generating high-visual quality talking head videos. In the first stage, we map the audio to mesh by learning two motions, including non-rigid expression motion and rigid head motion. In the second stage, we proposed a dual branch motion-vae and a generator to transform the meshes into dense motion and synthesize high-quality video frame-by-frame.

  Talking face generation has historically struggled to produce head movements and natural facial expressions without guidance from additional reference videos.

We present an autoregressive diffusion model that requires only one identity image and audio sequence to generate a video of a realistic talking human head.
