VIDEO SYNTHESIS WITHIN A MESSAGING SYSTEM

Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing a program and method for video synthesis. The program and method provide for accessing a primary generative adversarial network (GAN) comprising a pre-trained image generator, a motion generator comprising a plurality of neural networks, and a video discriminator; generating an updated GAN based on the primary GAN, by performing operations comprising identifying input data of the updated GAN, the input data comprising an initial latent code and a motion domain dataset, training the motion generator based on the input data, and adjusting weights of the plurality of neural networks of the primary GAN based on an output of the video discriminator; and generating a synthesized video based on the primary GAN and the input data.
