Summary

  • Marey, an AI video model developed collaboratively by Moonvalley and Asteria, is now available for Hollywood studios, filmmakers and brands on an invitation-only basis.
  • Built using licensed and owned data, Marey offers an alternative to existing AI video models that may have been trained on scraped content, thus avoiding copyright issues.
  • The model offers HD generation, extended video length, layer-based editing, storyboard and sketch-based inputs, and increased controllability.
  • Moonvalley has also developed a generative-native video editor as a companion tool for Marey.
  • The company has raised $70m in Series A funding to further develop the model.
  • Moonvalley’s CEO said the focus for the company was on building a “clean,” professional-grade model.
  • “The industry has been loud and clear that in order for them to actually use these models, we need to figure out how to build a clean model,” he said.
