Animate Anyone 2 is an open-source AI model for high-fidelity character animation that realistically interacts with its environment. Developed by Alibaba's Tongyi Lab.
Hi everyone!
Excited to share Animate Anyone 2, the next generation of character animation from Alibaba's Tongyi Lab! This builds on the original "Animate Anyone," but with a huge improvement: it understands the environment.
What does that mean? Instead of just making a character move based on a video, Animate Anyone 2 can actually have the character interact with the scene realistically. Think a character sitting on a chair, bouncing a ball, or dodging obstacles – all generated from a single image and a motion video.
This is a big step beyond just swapping characters into videos, it's about creating believable interactions.
