ComfyUI: Cartoon animation with Wan SCAIL

Demo summary

The user shows how to animate a cartoon ballerina using a real-person video as a motion reference via the Wan SCAIL workflow in ComfyUI.

Step-by-step

  1. Download the detection models and place them in the detection folder.
  2. Download the Wan SCAIL model (FP8 or BF-16) and save it in a new 'scale' folder within diffusion models.
  3. Save the LoRA in the 'wan 2.2' folder within the models/loras directory.
  4. Place the control model in the control net folder.
  5. Press 'R' to refresh node definitions in ComfyUI.
  6. Load a cartoon image and a video of a real person with a similar aspect ratio.
  7. Set the resolution to a 9:16 portrait ratio (512 pixels base).
  8. Enter a prompt describing the action and generate the video.

Options

  • Use the BF-16 version of the model instead of FP8 if you have high VRAM
  • Keep the audio from the reference video in the final output

Watch out for

  • The motion reference must be a video of a real person; cartoon references may fail detection.
  • The model is trained on 512px video and cannot handle large resolutions.
  • Generation is slow, typically taking more than 10 minutes.

Tips

  • Use Wan SCAIL specifically for cartoons and non-realistic animations.
  • Use a 9:16 portrait ratio for the best results in testing.
  • Ensure the image and reference video have similar ratios for better alignment.

Highlights

It is quite hard to organize it to make it make sense and also to be easy to use for beginners.
