A new experiment with Seedance 2.0 on @mitte_ai: FACS.
For this video, I only used FACS codes in the prompt. I didn't describe the facial expressions in plain language at all.
FACS (Facial Action Coding System) is a system for describing facial expressions using individual muscle movements called Action Units (AUs), instead of general emotion labels like "happy" or "sad." It breaks the face into controllable components such as brow movement, eyelid tension, lip movement and cheek activation.
Even though it didn't follow all 14 Action Units perfectly, it still interpreted most of them surprisingly well.
