Skyreels V1: Human-Centric Video Foundation Model

Introduction

1. Open-Source Leadership: Our Text-to-Video model achieves state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance among open-source models, comparable to proprietary models like Kling and Hailuo.
2. Advanced Facial Animation: Captures 33 distinct facial expressions with over 400 natural movement combinations, accurately reflecting human emotions.
3. Cinematic Lighting and Aesthetics: Trained on high-quality Hollywood-level film and television data, each generated frame exhibits cinematic quality in composition, actor positioning, and camera angles.

🔑 Key Features

1. Self-Developed Data Cleaning and Annotation Pipeline

• Expression Classification: Categorizes human facial expressions into 33 distinct types.
• Character Spatial Awareness: Utilizes 3D human reconstruction technology to understand spatial relationships between multiple people in a video, enabling film-level character positioning.
• Action Recognition: Constructs over 400 action semantic units to achieve a precise understanding of human actions.
• Scene Understanding: Conducts cross-modal correlation analysis of clothing, scenes, and plots.

2. Multi-Stage Image-to-Video Pretraining

• Stage 1: Model Domain Transfer Pretraining: We use a large dataset (O(10M) of film and television content) to adapt the text-to-video model to the human-centric video domain.
• Stage 2: Image-to-Video Model Pretraining: We convert the text-to-video model from Stage 1 into an image-to-video model by adjusting the conv-in parameters. This new model is then pretrained on the same dataset used in Stage 1.
• Stage 3: High-Quality Fine-Tuning: We fine-tune the image-to-video model on a high-quality subset of the original dataset, ensuring superior performance and quality.
