LivePortrait – Still Image Animation Tool

Note: This is an older application and is best used for research or personal exploration.

This might be one of the best software tools we ever used when it launched. LivePortrait takes a still image and animates it using an input motion source. That input can be a simple webcam feed, giving you incredibly lifelike motion mapped directly onto your portrait.

It even supports animal portraits, creating expressive animated results from static photos.

The output quality is truly impressive. While newer technologies have taken the spotlight, LivePortrait remains an excellent tool to experiment with.
