We introduce Mira (Mini-Sora), an initial foray into the realm of high-quality, long-duration video generation in the style of Sora. Mira stands out from existing text-to-video (T2V) generation frameworks in several key ways:
-
Extended sequence length: While most frameworks are limited to generating short videos (2 seconds / 16 frames), Mira is designed to produce significantly longer sequences, potentially lasting 10 seconds, 20 seconds, or more.
-
Enhanced dynamics: Mira has the capability to create videos with rich dynamics and intricate motions, setting it apart from the more static outputs of current video generation technologies.
-
Strong 3D consistency: Despite the intricate dynamics and object interactions, Mira ensures the 3D integrity of objects is preserved throughout the video, avoiding noticeable distortions.
Please acknowledge that our work on Mira is in the experimental phase. There are several areas where Sora still significantly outperforms Mira and other open-source T2V frameworks, including:
-
Interactive objects and environments: Sora supports the generation of videos where objects and surroundings engage in dynamic interactions, adding a layer of complexity and realism.
-
Sustained object consistency: Sora maintains consistent object shapes, even when they temporarily exit and re-enter the frame, ensuring continuity and coherence.
The Mira project is our endeavor to investigate and refine the entire data-model-training pipeline for Sora-like, lightweight T2V frameworks, and to preliminarily demonstrate the aforementioned Sora characteristics. Our goal is to foster innovation and democratize the field of content creation, paving the way for more accessible and advanced video generation tools.

Stay tuned! We are actively working on this project. Expect a steady stream of updates as we expand our dataset, enhance our annotation processes, and refine our model checkpoints. Keep an eye out for these upcoming updates, as we continue to make strides in our project's development.
[2024.07.11] 🔥 We're glad to announce the release of Mira-v1 and MiraData-v1! The full version of the MiraData-v1 datasets is now available, along with the corresponding technical report](https://arxiv.org/abs/2407.06358v1). Additionally, we have updated the MiraDiT model to improve quality, now supporting resolutions up to 768x480 and durations up to 10 seconds using the updated data. This version also includes an optional post-processing feature for video interpolation and enhancement, leveraging the RIFE](https://github.com/hzwer/ECCV2022-RIFE) framework.
[2024.04.01] 🔥 We're delighted to announce the release of Mira and MiraData-v0. This release offers a comprehensive open-source suite for data annotation and training pipelines, specifically tailored for the creation of long-duration videos with dynamic content and consistent quality. Our provided codes and checkpoints empower users to generate videos up to 20 seconds in 128x80 resolution and 10 seconds in 384x240 resolution. Dive into the future of video generation with Mira!
