Wan Animate AI Character Animation Tool Motion Capture

WAN Animate is an advanced video generation platform that revolutionizes character animation by transforming performer videos into high-quality animated characters, without the need for traditional mocap suits. It uses cutting-edge AI for precise facial expression tracking and full body motion capture via spatially-aligned skeleton signals. Crucially, the platform features Character Identity Preservation, which maintains the original art style and appearance while seamlessly applying dynamic new animations, resulting in production-ready output suitable for demanding projects in film, game development, and commercial use.
