VideoDreamer: Customized Multi-Subject Text-to-Video Generation with Disen-Mix Finetuning (2311.00990v1)

Abstract: Customized text-to-video generation aims to generate text-guided videos with customized user-given subjects, which has gained increasing attention recently. However, existing works are primarily limited to generating videos for a single subject, leaving the more challenging problem of customized multi-subject text-to-video generation largely unexplored. In this paper, we fill this gap and propose a novel VideoDreamer framework. VideoDreamer can generate temporally consistent text-guided videos that faithfully preserve the visual features of the given multiple subjects. Specifically, VideoDreamer leverages the pretrained Stable Diffusion with latent-code motion dynamics and temporal cross-frame attention as the base video generator. The video generator is further customized for the given multiple subjects by the proposed Disen-Mix Finetuning and Human-in-the-Loop Re-finetuning strategy, which can tackle the attribute binding problem of multi-subject generation. We also introduce MultiStudioBench, a benchmark for evaluating customized multi-subject text-to-video generation models. Extensive experiments demonstrate the remarkable ability of VideoDreamer to generate videos with new content such as new events and backgrounds, tailored to the customized multiple subjects.
