In August 2025 Wan adds their avatar lip sync tool. Wan2.2-S2V is a 14B model made for cinematic, audio-led human animation. It goes past simple talking heads and aims for pro quality used in movies, shows and web stuff. (It’s open-source too.) It keeps movement consistent across long videos. You can guide motion and background with clear instructions.

Prompt:
A close-up of a striking face adorned with delicate golden leaves, showcasing a mesmerizing eye and deep blue lips in 4K detail. Delicate metallic gold leaf vines and leaves intertwine across the face. The eye is hyperreaistic, like in a macro-shot, it subtly moves and blinks, then clear tear appears in its corner and flows down the painted face like a tiny river. As the transparent tear flows down it washes away some white paint revealing normal human skin underneath. This sets off white paint across the whole face and it cracks in multiple places and falls off revealing healthy woman's skin and her blue lips turn coral-pink. Meanwhile golden leaf vines move and transition to green, coming alive and pastel-blue-with-deep-cobalt-blue-center flowers are blooming on them.
A handheld video shot inside a narrow apartment hallway. Realistic lighting, chaotic energy, humorous tone.
Cat standing upright on a small step stool faces an open electrical panel with exposed wires and breakers mounted on the wall.
The cat grips a small screwdriver with both front paws, turns towards the panel and looks at it while carefully poking it with screwdriver in intense concentration.
Suddenly, a sharp electrical flash bursts outward from the panel with a quick white-blue spark which instantly causes the shocked cat to stop poking, jolt and jerk slightly from electrical shock with its electified fur all over its body immediately instantenously explosively puffing and elongating outward in all directions, expanding into an absurd cloud of tricolor fluff covering the cat form head to back paws.
Every strand of hair momentarily stands straight out, massively exaggerated, filling most of the frame. Cat quickly turns shocked face to the viewer, barely visible behind the puffed hairs - just eyes mostly - and stands frozen like that in comically exaggerated surprise. no music. Comedic timing, high visual contrast, exaggerated physical reaction.
A cozy living room scene features a relaxed cat lounging on a vibrant yellow couch, wrapped in a soft purple blanket adorned with playful cat patterns. The cat holds a smartphone, scrolling through messages, embodying a laid-back vibe. The cat decides to lie on the other side of the couch so he grabs the pillow and places it on the right side of couch under his head and lies with his head on the right side of the couch. He adjusts his blanket cozying up in his new position and starts scrolling on his phone again. Cat says: "Happy New Year". Text in middle and white dividing line stay static throughout the video.

Wan gets the essence of this prompt right almost every time. For some reason it sometimes wouldn't generate sound for it though. This gen is sound-driven.
The animation is great, except the bird on her head doesn't really wobble, which could add even more realism. Also, Wan zooms in and crops this one each time.
Bottom right corner - redraw man's arm holding the watch, specifically elbow area removing an artifact which looks like a bag or purse. In center-left, behind horse carriage and directly below boy's knee erase what looks like deformed horse part. Preserve all else intact.
Cheap tourist snapshot, handheld, slightly shaky and crooked angle, as if taken by an unskilled friend. A 30-year-old stylish blonde woman, mid-sentence, looking a little confused and caught off guard, her expression suspended between talking and posing. She’s standing dead center in front of a major tourist landmark, though the framing is awkward and cuts part of it off. Behind her, a random passer-by photobombs the shot — a young man suddenly leaping in from the left, frozen mid-air with a wild, unhinged expression and flailing arms, almost cartoonish. His exaggerated presence clashes with the woman’s seriousness. Lighting is flat, daytime overcast, emphasizing the raw, unpolished snapshot quality. Poor composition, random tourists half-cropped at the edges, and a sense of chaotic realism as if the camera captured a fleeting, messy, and hilarious moment.
Miniature dogs made entirely out of colored paper (labrador, poodle and husky) playing football on a field in urban settings on highly defined green grass field. One storefront reads "AIcreators.tools" it's got various flowers inside behind the glass windows and doors
Crescent Moon Sculpture with a town inside, made of quartz material, features autumn, with lights hanging from houses in the forest, creating a warm and cozy atmosphere. The warm lighting effect enhances the overall scene. The sculpture is set against a white background with a beautifully carved quartz base, showing exquisite details and bright colors, evoking a feeling of warmth and joy. 4k, high definition, clear, sharp, miniature.
Using my own 'role'. Reference video to video. Again, Spanish translation of prompt due to unwise censorship layer banning unknown innocent words. Background music sometimes doesn't get included, and if I add a second actor - a cat - that usually breaks the prompt, might be too complicated for that. But two actors work in principle
Tweaked JSON worked, otherwise there was some confusion. Multi-character dialogue is correct, focus shift works. Man's expression a bit too hilarious))
This multishot worked almost perfectly. Had to translate to Spanish because Wan's loopy censorship layer is triggered by something in the English variant.
Ok so with 'Smart Multi-shot' OFF it still works form a prompt alone and 'No talking' instruction is followed - great! Not as dynamic a video as it could be & face/skin looks plastic.
