We present a first step towards 4D (3D and time) human video stylization, which addresses style transfer, novel view synthesis and human animation within a unified framework. While numerous video stylization methods have been developed, they are often restricted to rendering images in specific viewpoints of the input video, lacking the capability to generalize to novel views and novel poses in dynamic scenes. To overcome these limitations, we leverage Neural Radiance Fields (NeRFs) to represent videos, conducting stylization in the rendered feature space. Our innovative approach involves the simultaneous representation of both the human subject and the surrounding scene using two NeRFs. This dual representation facilitates the animation of human subjects across various poses and novel viewpoints. Specifically, we introduce a novel geometry-guided tri-plane representation, significantly enhancing feature representation robustness compared to direct tri-plane optimization. Following the video reconstruction, stylization is performed within the NeRFs' rendered feature space. Extensive experiments demonstrate that the proposed method strikes a superior balance between stylized textures and temporal coherence, surpassing existing approaches. Furthermore, our framework uniquely extends its capabilities to accommodate novel poses and viewpoints, making it a versatile tool for creative human video stylization.
