Provided are systems and methods for customizing modifiable videos. An example method includes analyzing recent messages associated with a user in a multimedia messaging application to determine a context of the recent messages, determining, based on the context, a property of a modifiable feature, selecting, based on the context, a list of relevant modifiable videos from a database configured to store modifiable videos associated with a preset modifiable feature, replacing a property of the preset modifiable feature in relevant modifiable videos of the list of relevant modifiable videos with the property of the modifiable feature, and rendering the list of relevant modifiable videos for viewing by the user, where the rendering includes displaying the modifiable feature in the relevant modifiable videos.

Customizing modifiable videos of multimedia messaging application

Disclosed are systems and methods for template-based generation of personalized videos. An example method includes receiving a sequence of frame images, face area parameters corresponding to positions of a face area in a frame image of the sequence of frame images, and facial landmark parameters corresponding to the frame image of the sequence of frame images, receiving an image of a source face, modifying, based on the facial landmark parameters corresponding to the frame image, the image of the source face to obtain a further face image featuring the source face adopting a facial expression corresponding to the facial landmark parameters, and inserting the further face image into the frame image at a position determined by the face area parameters corresponding to the frame image, thereby generating an output frame of an output video.

Template-based generation of personalized videos

A system for customizing modifiable videos of a multimedia messaging application (MMA) is provided. In one example embodiment, the system includes at least one processor and a memory storing processor-executable codes, wherein the at least one processor is configured to analyze recent messages of a user to determine a context of the recent messages; determine, based on the context, a customized feature; select, based on the context, a list of relevant modifiable videos from a database configured to store modifiable videos, the modifiable videos being associated with a preset modifiable feature; replace the preset modifiable feature in the relevant modifiable videos with the customized feature; and render a modifiable video from the list of relevant modifiable videos for viewing by the user, the rendering including displaying the customized feature in the relevant modifiable videos.

Described are systems and methods for generating personalized videos with customized text messages. An example method commences with receiving an input text and a video template. The video template includes a sequence of frame images and text parameters defining an animation of the input text for the sequence of frame images. The method continues with rendering an output video. The output video includes the sequence of frame images featuring the input text rendered according to the text parameters. The method further includes providing a user with an option to change at least one text parameter of the text parameters. The method continues with dynamically changing, by the at least one computing resource, the input text according to the at least one text parameter. The method further includes providing, by the at least one computing resource, the output video to at least one further computing resource via a communication chat.

Generating personalized videos with customized text messages

Disclosed are systems and methods for template-based generation of personalized videos. An example method may commence with receiving video configuration data including a sequence of frame images, a sequence of face area parameters defining positions of a face area in the frame images, and a sequence of skin masks defining positions of a skin area of a part of the at least one body in the frame images. The method may continue with receiving an image of a source face. The method may further include determining color data associated with the source face. The method may include recoloring the skin area of the part of the at least one body in the frame image and inserting the image of the source face into the frame image at a position determined by face area parameters corresponding to the frame image to generate an output frame of an output video.

The technical problem of creating an augmented reality (AR) experience that, on one hand, is accessible from a camera view user interface provided with a messaging client and that, also, can perform a modification based on a previously captured image of a user, is addressed by providing an AR component. When a user, while accessing the messaging client, engages a user selectable element representing the AR component in the camera view user interface, the messaging system loads the AR component in the messaging client. The AR component comprises a target media content object, which can be animation or live action video. The loaded AR component accesses a portrait image associated with a user and modifies the target media content using the portrait image. The resulting target media content object is displayed in the camera view user interface.

Using portrait images in augmented reality components

Described are systems and methods for generating personalized videos with customized text messages. An example method may commence with receiving a video template. The video template may include a sequence of frame images and preset text parameters defining an animation of a text. The method may continue with generating a configuration file based on the text and the preset text parameters. The configuration file may include text parameters defining rendering the text for each of the frame images. The method may further include receiving an input text and rendering an output video comprising the sequence of frame images featuring the input text rendered according to the text parameters. The rendering may be performed based on the configuration file. The method may continue with sending the output video to a further computing device via a communication chat.

Disclosed are systems and methods for template-based generation of personalized videos. An example method may commence with receiving video configuration data including a sequence of frame images, a sequence of face area parameters defining positions of a face area in the frame images, and a sequence of facial landmark parameters defining positions of facial landmarks in the frame images. The method may continue with receiving an image of a source face. The method may further include generating an output video. The generation of the output video may include modifying a frame image of the sequence of frame images. Specifically, the image of the source face may be modified to obtain a further image featuring the source face adopting a facial expression corresponding to the facial landmark parameters. The further image may be inserted into the frame image at a position determined by face area parameters corresponding to the frame image.

A system for customizing text messages in modifiable videos of a multimedia messaging application (MMA) is provided. In one example embodiment, the system includes a processor and a memory storing processor-executable codes, wherein the processor is configured to analyze recent messages of a user in the MMA to determine a context of the recent messages; determine, based on the context, a customized text message; select, based on the context, a list of relevant modifiable videos from a database configured to store modifiable videos, the modifiable videos being associated with preset text messages; replace the preset text messages in the relevant modifiable videos with the customized message; and render the list of relevant modifiable videos for viewing and selecting by the user, the rendering including displaying the customized text message in the relevant modifiable videos.
