ID-V2V: change the video's style without changing the actor
You edit one frame. The model spreads that look across the entire video — and the face stays the same.
ID-V2V is an open video-to-video model released by Eyeline Labs, Netflix's research lab. It solves a specific problem: changing the look of a video without turning the person being filmed into someone else halfway through.
The workflow is different from what you'd expect from a video generator. You don't describe the scene in text. You upload the original video and edit a single keyframe with the look you want. The model treats that frame as the reference and propagates the change to all the others — keeping the face, expressions, and movement identical to the original clip.
Why this matters
- It's the real bottleneck for anyone making video with AI: generating is easy, keeping the same person in every frame is what's hard.

The microcourse
1.What it changes and what it preserves
2 minWorth understanding the split before spending time installing, because it defines whether the tool fits your case.
- Change: background, lighting, clothing, and overall visual style of the scene.
- Preserves: facial identity, facial expressions, and character movement.
You can change things like the background, lighting, clothing, or overall style, while keeping the character's face, expressions, and movements identical to the original clip.
Translating this into practical terms: ID-V2V is a restyling tool, not a re-enactment one. If you need the person to make a new gesture that isn't in the original video, this isn't the model — the movement comes from the input clip, and that's exactly what it was trained not to invent.
