+description: "LiteLLM now supports creating, retrieving, and managing reusable video characters across multiple video generations."
+tags: [videos, characters, proxy, routing]

+---
+
+Upload a video character once, reference it across unlimited generations. LiteLLM now handles character management with full router support.
+
+## What's New
+
+Four new endpoints for video character operations:
+- **Create character** - Upload a video to create a reusable asset
+- **Get character** - Retrieve character metadata
+- **Edit video** - Modify generated videos
+- **Extend video** - Continue clips with character consistency
+
+**Available from:** LiteLLM v1.83.0+
+
+## Quick Example
+
+```python
+import litellm
+
+# Create character from video
+character = litellm.avideo_create_character(
+    name="Luna",
+    video=open("luna.mp4", "rb"),
+    custom_llm_provider="openai",
+    model="sora-2"
+)
+print(f"Character: {character.id}")
+
+# Use in generation
+video = litellm.avideo(
+    model="sora-2",
+    prompt="Luna dances through a magical forest.",
+    characters=[{"id": character.id}],
+    seconds="8"
+)
+
+# Get character info
+fetched = litellm.avideo_get_character(
+    character_id=character.id,
+    custom_llm_provider="openai"
+)
+
+# Edit with character preserved
+edited = litellm.avideo_edit(
+    video_id=video.id,
+    prompt="Add warm golden lighting"
+)
+
+# Extend sequence
+extended = litellm.avideo_extension(
+    video_id=video.id,
+    prompt="Luna waves goodbye",
+    seconds="5"
+)
+```
+
+## Via Proxy
+
+```bash
+# Create character
+curl -X POST "http://localhost:4000/v1/videos/characters" \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk-litellm-key" \
+  -F "video=@luna.mp4" \
+  -F "name=Luna"
+
+# Get character
+curl -X GET "http://localhost:4000/v1/videos/characters/char_xyz123" \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk-litellm-key"
+```
+
+## Key Features
+
+✅ **Full Router Support** - Load balance across multiple model deployments  
+✅ **Character Encoding** - Automatic provider/model tracking in character IDs  
+✅ **Error Handling** - Proper HTTP status checks before response parsing  
+✅ **Backward Compatible** - External providers receive NotImplementedError, not instantiation errors  
+✅ **Multi-Deployment** - Router picks optimal deployment when target_model_names is set
+
+## Best Practices
+
+**Character uploads:**
+- 2-4 seconds optimal
+- Match target resolution (16:9, 9:16, or 1:1)
+- 720p-1080p
+- Clear character isolation
+
+**Prompting:**
+```
+✅ "Luna the fox dances through a cosmic forest, stars trailing her movement"
+❌ "A character that looks like Luna"
+```
+
+Always mention character name verbatim in prompt.
+
+## Implementation Notes
+
+All four handler methods now include:
+- `response.raise_for_status()` - Proper error detection before model parsing
+- Router-first dispatch - Consistent with avideo_edit/extension
+- Async support - Full async/await pattern
+
+## What's Inside
+
+- 8 handler methods (sync + async pairs)
+- Character transformation classes
+- SDK functions + Router wiring
+- Full test coverage
+- Comprehensive error handling
+
+## Common Issues
+
+**Character doesn't appear?**
+- Include character ID in `characters` array
+- Use character name in prompt (exact match)
+- Ensure character occupies meaningful screen space
+
+**Distorted character?**
+- Character video aspect ratio must match target resolution
+- Upload again with matching dimensions
+
+**Want to edit with character?**
+- Use avideo_edit (currently no character support in extensions)
+- Edit preserves original composition
+
