This workflow leverages WAN2.1 model for Image-to-Video (I2V) generation, specializing in adding animated wing effects to static images. It processes inputs through text encoding, image embedding, video sampling, and optional frame interpolation to output HD videos. Ideal for character animation and short video production.

4. Workflow Structure

  • Group 1: Text & Image Encoding

    • Inputs: Positive prompt (e.g., "red glowing wings"), negative prompt (e.g., "blurry"), source image (720x480).

    • Outputs: CLIP image embeds + T5 text embeds.

  • Group 2: Video Generation

    • Inputs: Seed 378521426092274, sampler (DPM++, 20 steps).

    • Outputs: Raw video (16FPS).

  • Group 3: Post-Processing (Interpolation) (Optional)

    • Inputs: Raw video + GIMMVFI model.

    • Outputs: Interpolated video (30FPS).


5. Inputs & Outputs

  • Required Inputs:

    • Image: PNG, recommended resolution ≥720P.

    • Prompts: Supports Chinese/English (e.g., "chibang, glowing wings").

  • Output:

    • Video: MP4 (H.264, 16FPS default, 30FPS interpolated).


6. Notes

⚠️ Common Issues:

  • VRAM Overflow: Use GPU with ≥12GB VRAM or reduce resolution to 480x270.

  • LoRA Load Fail: Verify filename WAN2.1 ZOEY 光翼翅膀_Alpha.safetensors.

  • Interpolation Lag: Disable GIMMVFI node if unnecessary.

🔧 Optimization Tips:

  • Use bf16 precision for lower VRAM (if supported).

  • Disable redundant options in ExperimentalArgs.
