We present a method and application for animating a human subject from a single photo.
Eg, the character can walk out, run, sit, or jump in 3D. The key contributions of this paper are …

We propose a novel approach to animate human hair in a still portrait photo. Existing work
has largely studied the animation of fluid elements such as water and fire. However, hair …

We introduce Text2Cinemagraph, a fully automated method for creating cinemagraphs from
text descriptions---an especially challenging task when prompts feature imaginary elements …

In this paper, we demonstrate a fully automatic method for converting a still image into a
realistic animated looping video. We target scenes with continuous fluid motion, such as …

Cinemagraphs are short looping videos created by adding subtle motions to a static image.
This kind of media is popular and engaging. However, automatic generation of …

We present a semi-automated technique for selectively deanimating video to remove the
large-scale motions of one or more objects so that other motions are easier to see. The user …

We explore creating"" cliplets"", a form of visual media that juxtaposes still image and video
segments, both spatially and temporally, to expressively abstract a moment. Much as in"" …

Given a short video we create a representation that captures a spectrum of looping videos
with varying levels of dynamism, ranging from a static image to a highly animated loop. In …

Animated GIF has become a key communication tool in contemporary social platforms
thanks to highly compatible with affective performance, and it is gradually adopted in …

We present an algorithm for producing a seamless animated loop from a single image. The
algorithm detects periodic structures, such as the windows of a building or the steps of a …
