AI generation services first surprised people by creating images. Such tools existed before ChatGPT entered the public consciousness at the end of 2022. Developers are constantly competing to allow the creation of videos after the generation of images. In this area, Meta has now pulled a new solution out of the hat.
Showing no signs of modesty, Meta announced its artificial intelligence engine for creating moving images called Movie Gen. Of course, at this time, no one expects him to create movies, but he is already able to bring short scenes to life very effectively after specifying uniform text parameters. Movie Gen has several functions, it is not only suitable for generating completely new materials, but it can also be used to edit existing materials.
Runway, Luma, Sora, these are the most famous and probably the best AI video tools at the moment, and Movie Gen would now join this company.
Meta promises great functionality for Movie Gen. The first and most important thing from a technological point of view is the ability of the service to create videos from scratch completely independently. It is enough to enter the text of what should be on the video, and the artificial intelligence is already moving in Meta’s remote data centers. A 30 billion parameter model creates these objects, the device supports 1080p HD resolution, but only at 16 FPS, and the duration of scenes can be up to 16 seconds.
As the second function of Movie Gen, Meta pointed out that it can highlight the user’s face from uploaded images and create a video around it, taking into account the parameters of the text. As a result, the face in the tables will not be given to the AI, but the environment will be, so here too it will be very necessary for the technology to work effectively. Such videos will be much more personal, and maybe in the future people will be able to make AI videos that show them in “impossible” situations.
The third interesting feature is video editing. In this case, the user can already upload ready material for Movie Gen, which will be the basis for image sequences. For this, you can write instructions and instructions on how to edit the short video. In Meta’s example, a penguin video is edited in different ways. According to the company, the editions will be changed in detail on the existing image elements both globally and locally.
It is very interesting that Meta can also solve the sound generation, for which he uses another model, which has 13 billion parameters. This can be used to create your own sound for videos, but it can also create artificial sound that is adapted to existing recordings. The sound created can be up to a maximum of 45 seconds, and these may include various effects, background sounds, and ambient sounds, all modified depending on the image and direction.
Meta thought it was important to point out that Movie Gen is not intended to replace artists, animators or videographers in any way. The company wants AI to be used by users to expand their creativity. It becomes possible to do things that the creators would almost never be able to survive. It becomes possible to control the contents during parameterization.
For videos created or edited with Movie Gen, you will always see the Meta watermark in the corner of the image, which indicates whether or not artificial intelligence has worked on the content he created it completely. The company also displays a separate flyer on its own platforms that draws people’s attention to the presence of AI.
Meta tested Movie Gen’s four features against its competitors, and the company found that it outperforms its competitors in every way, with the only difference being that what is the advantage. And the device has no competitor that offers all the capabilities in one package.
The company is looking ahead with confidence and is already thinking big. He would further develop the novel together with film producers, videographers and ordinary users. And by next year, it can already appear in the inventory of Instagram, and from there, MI videos can spread without restriction on social media.
