Exploring Character Animation with GenAI: A Winking Experiment
Creating long-form GenAI films is a thrilling journey, yet it presents unique challenges. Recently, I faced a humorous struggle: getting a character to wink! This quirky task led me to benchmark various video models. Each model received the same prompt and initial frame: “She winks with her right eye.”
Key Findings:
- Models Tested:
- Veo3
- Kling 2.1 Master (top performer)
- Runway Gen-3
- SeedDance 1.0 Pro
- Moonvalley Marey
- Wan 2.2
- Minimax Hailuo-02
- Midjourney
- Method: 9 random seeds were used for each model.
