Animate an image using Wan 2.1 in ComfyUI

Demo summary
The creator demonstrates loading a 'native image to video' workflow in ComfyUI, uploading a source image, and using the Wan 2.1 14B model to generate a high-quality video of a woman walking.
Step-by-step
- Load the Wan 2.1 native image to video 60fps JSON workflow
- Select the 480p 14B image-to-video model in the diffusion loader
- Enter your description in the positive prompt field
- Set the desired video resolution
- Click Upload to select your source image
- Click Run to start the generation process
- Wait for the upscaling and final processing nodes to complete
Options
- Switch to text-to-video models (1.3B or 14B parameters)
- Regenerate the video if the initial result is unsatisfactory
Watch out for
- The workflow will fail if you attempt to run it without first uploading an image
- The first run takes longer as the model must be loaded into memory
Tips
- Use the 14B parameter model for the highest quality results from Wan 2.1
- Expect generation times between 200 to 400 seconds when using the 14B model at 480p
- Use high-quality, non-blurry source images to ensure the final video output is clear
Highlights
“It is insane. I mean really it hasn't changed her face or anything. It is perfectly perfect.”
