Original abstract

Generating personalized dance videos from a reference image, text prompt, and audio track requires music-conditioned body motion. Singing-and-dancing adds a second requirement: the visible subject must also articulate the vocals. Existing music-conditioned methods focus primarily on choreography, while speech-driven models generally assume that the visible subject produces the input voice, leaving this combined setting largely underexplored. We introduce SingDance, a unified video diffusion framework that formulates controllable vocal articulation as a semantic role: the visible subject is either the source, who produces the vocal signal, or the listener, who receives it from an off-screen performer. Hard-compact routing selects task-relevant speech, music, and role conditions, which are composed through frame-wise joint audio injection; source and listener retain the same speech pathway. Training uses asymmetric supervision: on-screen speaking and curated off-screen conversational-response videos establish role control, while instrumental and song-based dancing-only videos establish music-conditioned body motion. The target Song/Source configuration is never observed during training. At inference, assigning the source role to a song composes separately learned articulation and song-conditioned dance capabilities, enabling compositional zero-shot singing-and-dancing. Experiments demonstrate strong motion--beat alignment and visual fidelity, reliable paired switching of vocal articulation while preserving music-aligned body motion, and highly competitive lip synchronization with substantially fewer generation-time parameters than the strongest speech-driven baseline evaluated.
