A Generative Motion Rig as a Blender plugin, built atop a general motion model, that supports a new “generative keyframing” workflow, where artists author movements by manipulating sparse poses, handles, window lengths, and noise sampling.
Abstract
The recent success of generative modeling has led to entirely new capabilities to author 3D motion. By manipulating only a few sparse handles and poses, it is now possible to generate entire motion sequences, at scale and with many variations. To bridge the gap between model research and real-world integration, we developed a Generative Motion Rig as a Blender plugin, built atop a general motion model. Our rig supports a new “generative keyframing” workflow, where artists author movements by manipulating sparse poses, handles, window lengths, and noise sampling. We show in our accompanying video how artists use these controls to rapidly make a short animation. We also show how the same rig can support generative motion editing, allowing one to edit and extend mocap clips. Finally, we share insights and future challenges to help close the gap between generative and traditional animation workflows.
This work introduces scheduled inpainting, a method that enables interactive generative motion editing, a novel paradigm unifying motion synthesis and editing by leveraging generative models, and extensively validate the approach by comparing with four baselines, conducting ablations of the design, and reporting user f...

ViP-Rig is a visual-prompted framework that supports both prompt-first rigging and result-guided editing by injecting features extracted from user-drawn or edited 2D skeletal and rigidity prompts into frozen pretrained backbones into a frozen pretrained autoregressive generator.

A novel approach to computationally decompose and reconstruct the painting process itself is introduced, revealing how artworks emerge through systematic region-aware brushstroke sequences that mirror a more natural artistic practice.
This paper presents an innovative method that leverages user-specified action paths to guide the 4D scene generation that dynamically synchronizes motions in the action path domain with their corresponding contents in the time domain.

Wan-Animate-2 is presented, an end-to-end character animation framework that directly consumes the driving video within a redesigned Diffusion Transformer and achieves superior motion fidelity and identity preservation by eliminating intermediate motion extractors entirely.

UniMate is presented, a unified foundation model that synthesizes articulated motion for arbitrary skeletons from a rigged 3D asset and a text prompt, with no test-time optimization or per-skeleton retraining, and outperforms state-of-the-art baselines in quality, generalization, and efficiency.
