Quick Inference
Pretrained Models
Please download our pre-trained models and put them in ./checkpoints.
Inference
python3 inference.py \
--face examples/face/1.mp4 \
--audio examples/audio/1.wav \
--outfile results/1_1.mp4
This script includes data preprocessing steps. You can test any talking face videos without manual alignment. But it is worth noting that DNet cannot handle extreme poses.
You can also control the expression by adding the following parameters:
--exp_img: Pre-defined expression template. The default is "neutral". You can choose "smile" or an image path.
--up_face: You can choose "surprise" or "angry" to modify the expression of upper face with GANimation.
