ComfyUI: Image-to-video generation with Sora

ComfyUI Try it →Watch full video →Yaroflasher · Nov 2025

Demo summary

A walkthrough of using the Sora 2 workflow to convert a storyboard frame into a 10-second cinematic video clip using a text prompt.

Step-by-step

Navigate to the Image to Video Sora 2 section in the workflow
Upload your chosen storyboard frame as the input image
Type a simple text prompt describing the action
Set the video duration to 10 seconds
Run the generation to produce the stylized animated clip

Watch out for

Users are typically limited to five free runs per day for 10-second videos
Sora does not support real people directly, so the pipeline will convert images into an illustration style

Tips

Prepare shots like close-ups, medium shots, and storyboard frames with consistent styling before starting
Be mindful of the daily generation limit when testing
Use a short description of the action, such as 'music video', for the prompt

Highlights

“The nice part is that this workflow automatically bypasses some of Sora's restrictions.”
