The subject technology captures first image data by a computing device, the first image data comprising a target face of a target actor and facial expressions of the target actor, the facial expressions including lip movements. The subject technology generates, based at least in part on frames of a source media content, sets of source pose parameters. The subject technology receives a selection of a particular facial expression from a set of facial expressions. The subject technology generates, based at least in part on sets of source pose parameters and the selection of the particular facial expression, an output media content. The subject technology provides augmented reality content based at least in part on the output media content for display on the computing device.

Facial synthesis in augmented reality content for online communities

Systems and methods for providing personalized videos are provided. An example method includes receiving preprocessed videos including a target face and facial expression parameters of the target face, modifying the preprocessed videos to generate one or more personalized videos by replacing the target face with a source face, where the source face is modified to adopt the facial expression parameters of the target face, providing a user interface enabling a user to share at least one personalized video of the one or more personalized videos with a further user of a further computing device, determining that an application to be used to share the personalized video does not allow auto-play of the personalized video in a video format, in response the determination, exporting the personalized video of the one or more personalized videos into an image file, and sharing the image file via the application.

Personalized videos

Provided are systems and methods for providing personalized videos featuring multiple persons. An example method includes enabling a communication chat between a user of a computing device and at least one further user of at least one further computing device, receiving a user selection of a video from one or more personalized videos, receiving an image of a source face and a further image of a further source face, modifying the image of the source face to generate an image of a modified source face, modifying the further image of the further source face to generate an image of a modified further source face, replacing, in the video, a target face with the image of the modified source face and at least one further target face with the modified further source face to generate a personalized video, and sending the personalized video to the at least one further user.

Personalized videos featuring multiple persons

The subject technology receives a selection of a selectable graphical item to initiate generating augment reality content including facial synthesis, the selection being received by a third party application, the third party application being executed by a computing device separate from a first party application and a messaging server system. The subject technology captures image data by the client device. The subject technology generates, by the one or more hardware processors and based at least in part on frames of a source media content, sets of source pose parameters. The subject technology generates, based at least in part on sets of the source pose parameters, an output media content using an interface communicating with the messaging server system. The subject technology provides augmented reality content based at least in part on the output media content for display on the computing device.
