ViMax - Open Source Multi-intelligent Body Video Generation Framework at the University of Hong Kong

What is ViMax?

ViMax is an open source multi-intelligence body video generation framework from the Data Science Laboratory of the University of Hong Kong, which can automate the whole process from creative input to video output. Integration of script generation , scene design , shot planning and video rendering and other functions , to support users to generate coherent film and television level video through natural language description , especially good at dealing with long stories to video and other complex tasks . The framework adopts the MIT open source protocol and provides a local deployment solution, which is suitable for self-media, education and other content creation scenarios. Compared with traditional AI video tools, ViMax solves problems such as incoherent characters and missing narrative structure, and can automatically generate complete videos with audio and video synchronization.
