Could you build this?

No This is academic research code for training and running video diffusion models for 3D avatars, which needs large GPU compute, research-level model design, and curated multi-view data.

What it would actually take: The system fine-tunes a large video diffusion model (WAN-Animate-based) to be controllable for viewpoint, neck pose, and expression, and reconstructs multi-view consistent 3D avatars. Reproducing it requires ML research expertise, substantial GPU training runs, and specialized face-tracking and dataset pipelines.
