Can I put my character in a different location?

Yes – just describe the new background in your text prompt.

What happens if body parts are hidden in my image?

If your image shows someone from the waist up but your reference video has them kicking, expect weird results. Make sure visible body parts match the motion you need.

Can I keep the audio from my reference video?

Yes, you can choose to include it or go silent.

Does it work with drawings or just photos?

Both. Illustrations, mascots, concept art, photos – all fair game.

Key Features

Multi-Format Character Support

Works with photographs, anime characters, digital illustrations, cartoon mascots, and stylized avatars. The AI adapts motion transfer to respect each character's unique proportions and design language.

Precise Hand Tracking

Accurately captures hand movements, finger positions, and gestures—solving the "extra finger" problem that plagued earlier AI video tools.

Top Use Cases

Scalable Marketing Production

Generate dozens of variations from a single motion capture session: different virtual presenters, localized characters for regional markets, or multiple style treatments. Show how products move on various body types without additional shoots.

Engaging Educational Content

Transfer instructor movements to animated characters that maintain student attention. Language teachers demonstrate pronunciation with gesture. Fitness instructors produce workouts with animated guides. Original timing and movement carries through to the final result.

Character-Driven Social Content

Record yourself performing trending dances, then transfer motion to illustrated avatars or mascots. Build IP around characters rather than personal presence. One reference video can animate multiple character variations for different platforms.
