Wan Animate: A Unified Model for Video Character Replacement

What Is Wan Animate?

Wan Animate is an AI video generation system developed by the Wan team. It focuses on two core capabilities:

Character Replacement – Keep the motion, rhythm, and background of the original video while swapping in a custom character image.

Expression Transfer – Capture facial details and expressions from the source video and accurately map them onto the new character.

Style Flexibility – Works across photography, illustrations, anime characters, game avatars, or even pets.

Built on the Wan2.2-Animate framework, the model combines diffusion techniques with transformer-based architectures to generate natural, detailed, and stylistically consistent results.

Our Web Demo

We’ve deployed a unified character replacement demo on wananimate.video . Here’s what you can expect:

Browser-first workflow – Just upload a character image and a reference video.

No hardware required – No GPUs, no environment setup.

Fast results – Within minutes, you’ll receive an animated output.

Right now, our version still trails the official implementation in some areas — like edge refinement and lighting consistency in complex scenes — but we’re iterating quickly. Expect smoother, sharper results soon.
