AnimateAnyone generates character action videos from character images and action templates. It consists of three independent models: "AnimateAnyone-detect" for detecting character image compliance, "AnimateAnyone-template" for generating action templates, and "AnimateAnyone" for generating character videos.
This document applies only to the China (Beijing) region. To use these models, you must use an API key from the China (Beijing) region.
