What is Wan-Animate?

Wan-Animate is a unified approach for character animation and character replacement. With one image of a character and one reference video, it can animate the character to follow the performer's motion and expressions, and seamlessly integrate into the original scene.

  • Unified Character Animation & Replacement
    The design separates reference conditions from regions to be generated, making the inputs clear and flexible. Supports Move Mode (character animation) and Mix Mode (character replacement).
  • Skeleton-Driven Motion Control
    Uses skeleton signals for body motion together with facial features drawn from source images to reenact expressions, maintaining identity and scene consistency.
  • Intelligent Relighting Technology
    Auxiliary Relighting LoRA helps apply environmental lighting and color tone without drifting away from the character's appearance, ensuring natural scene integration.

How to Replace Characters in Videos

Transform your videos with AI character replacement in four simple steps:

Key Features of Wan-Animate

Complete solution for unified character animation and replacement, providing professional-grade motion control and scene integration capabilities.

Move Mode: Character Animation

Animates the character image using motion extracted from the reference video. Characters follow body pose and timing guided by spatially aligned skeleton with stable facial expression reenactment.

Mix Mode: Character Replacement

Replaces the person in the video with the animated character from the image. Preserves motion and expressions while adjusting lighting and color tone to match the target scene.

Skeleton Signal Alignment

Skeleton signals spatially aligned with performers provide precise pose and body movement guidance, ensuring natural and fluid motion transitions.

Facial Feature Reenactment

Facial reenactment driven by features extracted from source images maintains character identity consistency while following expressions from the video.

Relighting LoRA Technology

Auxiliary Relighting LoRA adjusts character lighting to match scenes, maintaining stable appearance while achieving consistent color tone and illumination.

Multiple Quality Profiles

Supports wan-pro (25fps 720p) and wan-std (15fps 720p) quality configurations, allowing flexible choice based on time and hardware constraints.

1

What exactly is Wan-Animate and how does it work?

Wan-Animate is a unified solution for character animation and replacement. Simply upload a character image and reference video, and our AI will make the character follow the performer's movements and expressions, seamlessly integrating into the original scene. Core technologies include skeleton signal guidance and intelligent relighting for natural results.

2

Is Wan-Animate free to use?

Yes! Wan-Animate offers free character animation and replacement services through our online platform. You can use it without registration or payment, though you might need to wait in queue during peak usage times. We're committed to making advanced AI video technology accessible to everyone.

3

What's the difference between Move Mode and Mix Mode? Which should I choose?

Move Mode: Makes your character image 'come alive' by following the movements in a reference video - perfect for creating character performances. Mix Mode: Replaces a person in the video with your character while preserving original movements and expressions - ideal for character replacement scenarios. Simply put, Move is 'animate the image' and Mix is 'face swap with motion'.

4

How does Wan-Animate compare to other video editing tools?

Wan-Animate specializes in AI-powered character animation and replacement, which traditional video editing software cannot achieve. Unlike conventional tools that require complex manual operations, our AI automatically understands motion, expressions, and lighting to produce natural, realistic results. It's like having a professional VFX assistant.

5

What are the restrictions for input images and videos?

To ensure optimal results, we have these limits: Video files under 200MB, 2-30 seconds duration, 200-2048 pixel resolution, supports mp4/avi/mov formats. Image files under 5MB, 200-4096 pixel resolution, supports common image formats. These restrictions ensure processing stability and quality.

6

What are skeleton signals and relighting technology? Why are they important?

Skeleton signals are like a 'wireframe' of the human body, helping AI precisely understand and replicate body movements. Relighting technology allows characters to naturally blend into different lighting environments, as if they were actually there. These technologies combined make the final results more natural and realistic.

7

How do I choose between wan-pro and wan-std quality modes?

If you want the best results and aren't in a hurry, choose wan-pro (25fps HD). If you want quick previews or testing, choose wan-std (15fps standard). We recommend testing with wan-std first, then using wan-pro for the final version once you're satisfied with the results.

8

How can I get the best character replacement results? Any practical tips?

Key tips for success: 1) Choose videos where the person is clearly visible and centered, avoiding obstruction or being too small; 2) Use high-quality character images with distinct features; 3) Test with short videos (2-10 seconds) first; 4) For complex lighting scenes, validate with wan-std before refining with wan-pro; 5) Keep consistent aspect ratios between image and video.
