Creating content for a specific identity (ID) has shown significant interest
in the field of generative models. In the field of text-to-image generation
(T2I), subject-driven content generation has achieved great progress with the
ID in the images controllable. However, extending it to video generation is not
well explored. In this work, we propose a simple yet effective subject identity
controllable video generation framework, termed Video Custom Diffusion (VCD).
With a specified subject ID defined by a few images, VCD reinforces the
identity information extraction and injects frame-wise correlation at the
initialization stage for stable video outputs with identity preserved to a
large extent. To achieve this, we propose three novel components that are
essential for high-quality ID preservation: 1) an ID module trained with the
cropped identity by prompt-to-segmentation to disentangle the ID information
and the background noise for more accurate ID token learning; 2) a
text-to-video (T2V) VCD module with 3D Gaussian Noise Prior for better
inter-frame consistency and 3) video-to-video (V2V) Face VCD and Tiled VCD
modules to deblur the face and upscale the video for higher resolution.
  Despite its simplicity, we conducted extensive experiments to verify that VCD
is able to generate stable and high-quality videos with better ID over the
selected strong baselines. Besides, due to the transferability of the ID
module, VCD is also working well with finetuned text-to-image models available
publically, further improving its usability. The codes are available at
