摘要
Lip synchronization, the task of generating realistic lip movements synchronized with audio signals, is fundamental to applications such as film dubbing, virtual avatars, and digital content creation. Recent GAN-based methods offer computational efficiency but often lack visual fidelity, while diffusion-based approaches achieve high-quality results at the cost of substantial computational overhead. Moreover, most existing methods are limited to photo-realistic human faces, restricting their applicability to stylized characters and non-human entities. In this paper, we propose an efficient universal lip-sync video generation framework that achieves high-quality results without compromising computational efficiency. We build on LivePortrait, a warp-based portrait animation model, and introduce a training strategy that aligns audio signals to an implicit motion space by distilling knowledge from a pre-trained video-to-motion model. This enables real-time inference while maintaining high visual fidelity, and naturally generalizes to diverse stylistic characters beyond photo-realistic humans. Furthermore, we introduce an expressive control gate that enables explicit manipulation of emotional expressions for content enrichment. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance in both visual quality and lip-sync accuracy while ensuring real-time inference.
