A script-to-movie generation method for a computing device includes: obtaining a movie script; generating a list of actions according to the movie script; generating stage performance based on each action in the list of actions; extracting observation information from the stage performance; using a camera agent trained with a reinforcement learning algorithm to select a camera based on the observation information, where the camera includes camera setting that defines a position of the camera with respect to a character for which the camera shoots; using the selected camera to capture a video of the stage performance; and outputting the video.

Automatic cinematography system using reinforcement learning

A script-to-movie generation method for a computing device includes obtaining a movie script, generating a video according to the movie script, optimizing the generated video until a pass condition is satisfied, and outputting the optimized video.

Write-a-movie: visualize your story from script

A method for generating speech animation from an audio signal includes: receiving the audio signal; transforming the received audio signal into frequency-domain audio features; performing neural-network processing on the frequency-domain audio features to recognize phonemes, wherein the neural-network processing is performed using a neural network trained with a phoneme dataset comprising of audio signals with corresponding ground-truth phoneme labels; and generating the speech animation from the recognized phonemes.
