Unlock Traditional Chinese Costume Transformation with WAN2.1 I2V Model
1. Workflow Overview

This workflow leverages WAN2.1 I2V model to generate videos of traditional Chinese costume transformation. Key features:
Image Input: Processes portrait images (e.g.,
79-花瓣网.jpg
) at1280x720
resolution.Text Guidance: Uses prompts like "gufengbianshen" to control costume effects.
Video Generation: Integrates LoRA (
WAN2.1 I2V 国风戏服变身_V1
) for dynamic transitions.Post-Processing: Optional frame interpolation (GIMMVFI) and upscaling (
2xNomosUni
).
Use Cases: Historical role animation, short video effects, cultural content creation.

4. Workflow Structure
Input Preprocessing
Nodes:
LoadImage
→ImageScale
Input: Source image (auto-resized to
1280x720
).Output: Normalized image.
Feature Encoding
Nodes:
WanVideoTextEncode
+WanVideoImageClipEncode
Input: Text prompts + resized image.
Output: Joint text-image embeddings.
Video Generation
Nodes:

→WanVideoDecode
Params: Seed
797198568875963
, CFG=5, 16FPS.Output: Raw video (costume transformation).
Post-Processing (Optional)
Interpolation: GIMMVFI boosts to 30FPS.
Upscaling:
2xNomosUni
enhances resolution.
5. Inputs & Outputs
Required Inputs:
Image: Full-body portrait (plain background recommended).
Prompts: Must include keywords like "traditional costume".
Output:
Video: MP4 (H.264, 16FPS default, 30FPS interpolated).

6. Notes
⚠️ Common Issues:
VRAM Overflow: Requires ≥10GB GPU. Enable
WanVideoVRAMManagement
for optimization.LoRA Failure: Verify filename includes
_V1.safetensors
.Interpolation Errors: Ensure
gimmvfi_r_arb_lpips_fp32.safetensors
is inmodels/gimmvfi
.
🔧 Optimization Tips:
Disable redundant options in
ExperimentalArgs
for faster generation.Use
ImageUpscaleWithModel
for HD output (requires extra VRAM).
