MotionCtrl

MotionCtrl from Tencent (ARC Lab); Verified.
MotionCtrl is a unified, flexible motion controller for video generation: it controls camera motion and object motion independently in one model (SIGGRAPH 2024). In this catalog the runner is verified — the camera-motion demo runs through the Workspace infer path with the staged MotionCtrl checkpoint and in-tree camera-pose fixture.


The recorded paper is arXiv 2312.03641.

motionctrl is the recorded interactive world line. Start here when the job is stepping a world with actions.
Per the publication, a Camera Motion Control Module conditions on camera pose sequences and an Object Motion Control Module on trajectories, attached to an LVDM-family video base. WorldFoundry vendors the LVDM stack, control modules, sampler, default config, and motion fixtures under synthesis/visual_generation/motionctrl/motionctrl_runtime and loads them in-process. It is published by Tencent (ARC Lab).
Catalog tasks include interactive-video.
Recorded evaluation entry points include CameraBench (Camera-motion control adherence).
Runtime contract
Optional prompt, input_path, interactions, frames, and fps; artifacts motionctrl.mp4.
CLI task profiles: interactive-video. WorldFoundry binds MotionCtrlPipeline.
Family status: Verified.
The default camera/object motion fixture parameters are recorded in the runtime profile — start there. The upstream CLI is provenance only; benchmark scoring remains separate.
Runtime code is vendored in-tree; checkpoints remain external assets under the normal hfd/ckpt cache.
The upstream CLI is retained as provenance only; the WorldFoundry runtime loads the vendored architecture in-process and consumes local MotionCtrl checkpoint and condition assets.
Running in WorldFoundry
The catalog launch is worldfoundry-eval run motionctrl --pipeline.task-profile interactive-video. The command builder above switches --pipeline.task-profile among recorded tasks and still emits worldfoundry-eval run.
It runs in the unified environment worldfoundry-unified-cu128 (Python 3.11, CUDA 12.8).
Recorded weight repositories include TencentARC/MotionCtrl and TencentARC/MotionCtrl_SVD. Prepare the environment and check local assets with bash scripts/inference/prepare_model_infer.sh motionctrl. Add --download to fetch missing public checkpoints.
Status: Verified.
