Text-to-Video Generation with AnimateDiff

Overview

AnimateDiff: Animate Your Personalized Text-to-Image Diffusion Models without Specific Tuning by Yuwei Guo, Ceyuan Yang, Anyi Rao, Yaohui Wang, Yu Qiao, Dahua Lin, Bo Dai.

The abstract of the paper is the following:

With the advance of text-to-image models (e.g., Stable Diffusion) and corresponding personalization techniques such as DreamBooth and LoRA, everyone can manifest their imagination into high-quality images at an affordable cost. Subsequently, there is a great demand for image animation techniques to further combine generated static images with motion dynamics. In this report, we propose a practical framework to animate most of the existing personalized text-to-image models once and for all, saving efforts in model-specific tuning. At the core of the proposed framework is to insert a newly initialized motion modeling module into the frozen text-to-image model and train it on video clips to distill reasonable motion priors. Once trained, by simply injecting this motion modeling module, all personalized versions derived from the same base T2I readily become text-driven models that produce diverse and personalized animated images. We conduct our evaluation on several public representative personalized text-to-image models across anime pictures and realistic photographs, and demonstrate that our proposed framework helps these models generate temporally smooth animation clips while preserving the domain and diversity of their outputs. Code and pre-trained weights will be publicly available at this https URL.

Available checkpoints

Motion Adapter checkpoints can be found under guoyww. These checkpoints are meant to work with any model based on Stable Diffusion 1.4/1.5.

Usage example

AnimateDiffPipeline

AnimateDiff works with a MotionAdapter checkpoint and a Stable Diffusion model checkpoint. The MotionAdapter is a collection of Motion Modules that are responsible for adding coherent motion across image frames. These modules are applied after the Resnet and Attention blocks in Stable Diffusion UNet.

The following example demonstrates how to use a MotionAdapter checkpoint with Diffusers for inference based on StableDiffusion-1.4/1.5.

import torch
from diffusers import AnimateDiffPipeline, DDIMScheduler, MotionAdapter
from diffusers.utils import export_to_gif

# Load the motion adapter
adapter = MotionAdapter.from_pretrained("guoyww/animatediff-motion-adapter-v1-5-2", torch_dtype=torch.float16)
# load SD 1.5 based finetuned model
model_id = "SG161222/Realistic_Vision_V5.1_noVAE"
pipe = AnimateDiffPipeline.from_pretrained(model_id, motion_adapter=adapter, torch_dtype=torch.float16)
scheduler = DDIMScheduler.from_pretrained(
    model_id,
    subfolder="scheduler",
    clip_sample=False,
    timestep_spacing="linspace",
    beta_schedule="linear",
    steps_offset=1,
)
pipe.scheduler = scheduler

# enable memory savings
pipe.enable_vae_slicing()
pipe.enable_model_cpu_offload()

output = pipe(
    prompt=(
        "masterpiece, bestquality, highlydetailed, ultradetailed, sunset, "
        "orange sky, warm lighting, fishing boats, ocean waves seagulls, "
        "rippling water, wharf, silhouette, serene atmosphere, dusk, evening glow, "
        "golden hour, coastal landscape, seaside scenery"
    ),
    negative_prompt="bad quality, worse quality",
    num_frames=16,
    guidance_scale=7.5,
    num_inference_steps=25,
    generator=torch.Generator("cpu").manual_seed(42),
)
frames = output.frames[0]
export_to_gif(frames, "animation.gif")

Here are some sample outputs:

masterpiece, bestquality, sunset.

AnimateDiff tends to work better with finetuned Stable Diffusion models. If you plan on using a scheduler that can clip samples, make sure to disable it by setting clip_sample=False in the scheduler as this can also have an adverse effect on generated samples. Additionally, the AnimateDiff checkpoints can be sensitive to the beta schedule of the scheduler. We recommend setting this to linear.

AnimateDiffSDXLPipeline

AnimateDiff can also be used with SDXL models. This is currently an experimental feature as only a beta release of the motion adapter checkpoint is available.

import torch
from diffusers.models import MotionAdapter
from diffusers import AnimateDiffSDXLPipeline, DDIMScheduler
from diffusers.utils import export_to_gif

adapter = MotionAdapter.from_pretrained("guoyww/animatediff-motion-adapter-sdxl-beta", torch_dtype=torch.float16)

model_id = "stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0"
scheduler = DDIMScheduler.from_pretrained(
    model_id,
    subfolder="scheduler",
    clip_sample=False,
    timestep_spacing="linspace",
    beta_schedule="linear",
    steps_offset=1,
)
pipe = AnimateDiffSDXLPipeline.from_pretrained(
    model_id,
    motion_adapter=adapter,
    scheduler=scheduler,
    torch_dtype=torch.float16,
    variant="fp16",
).to("cuda")

# enable memory savings
pipe.enable_vae_slicing()
pipe.enable_vae_tiling()

output = pipe(
    prompt="a panda surfing in the ocean, realistic, high quality",
    negative_prompt="low quality, worst quality",
    num_inference_steps=20,
    guidance_scale=8,
    width=1024,
    height=1024,
    num_frames=16,
)

frames = output.frames[0]
export_to_gif(frames, "animation.gif")

AnimateDiffVideoToVideoPipeline

AnimateDiff can also be used to generate visually similar videos or enable style/character/background or other edits starting from an initial video, allowing you to seamlessly explore creative possibilities.

import imageio
import requests
import torch
from diffusers import AnimateDiffVideoToVideoPipeline, DDIMScheduler, MotionAdapter
from diffusers.utils import export_to_gif
from io import BytesIO
from PIL import Image

# Load the motion adapter
adapter = MotionAdapter.from_pretrained("guoyww/animatediff-motion-adapter-v1-5-2", torch_dtype=torch.float16)
# load SD 1.5 based finetuned model
model_id = "SG161222/Realistic_Vision_V5.1_noVAE"
pipe = AnimateDiffVideoToVideoPipeline.from_pretrained(model_id, motion_adapter=adapter, torch_dtype=torch.float16)
scheduler = DDIMScheduler.from_pretrained(
    model_id,
    subfolder="scheduler",
    clip_sample=False,
    timestep_spacing="linspace",
    beta_schedule="linear",
    steps_offset=1,
)
pipe.scheduler = scheduler

# enable memory savings
pipe.enable_vae_slicing()
pipe.enable_model_cpu_offload()

# helper function to load videos
def load_video(file_path: str):
    images = []

    if file_path.startswith(('http://', 'https://')):
        # If the file_path is a URL
        response = requests.get(file_path)
        response.raise_for_status()
        content = BytesIO(response.content)
        vid = imageio.get_reader(content)
    else:
        # Assuming it's a local file path
        vid = imageio.get_reader(file_path)

    for frame in vid:
        pil_image = Image.fromarray(frame)
        images.append(pil_image)

    return images

video = load_video("https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/diffusers/animatediff-vid2vid-input-1.gif")

output = pipe(
    video = video,
    prompt="panda playing a guitar, on a boat, in the ocean, high quality",
    negative_prompt="bad quality, worse quality",
    guidance_scale=7.5,
    num_inference_steps=25,
    strength=0.5,
    generator=torch.Generator("cpu").manual_seed(42),
)
frames = output.frames[0]
export_to_gif(frames, "animation.gif")

Here are some sample outputs:

Using Motion LoRAs

Motion LoRAs are a collection of LoRAs that work with the guoyww/animatediff-motion-adapter-v1-5-2 checkpoint. These LoRAs are responsible for adding specific types of motion to the animations.

import torch
from diffusers import AnimateDiffPipeline, DDIMScheduler, MotionAdapter
from diffusers.utils import export_to_gif

# Load the motion adapter
adapter = MotionAdapter.from_pretrained("guoyww/animatediff-motion-adapter-v1-5-2", torch_dtype=torch.float16)
# load SD 1.5 based finetuned model
model_id = "SG161222/Realistic_Vision_V5.1_noVAE"
pipe = AnimateDiffPipeline.from_pretrained(model_id, motion_adapter=adapter, torch_dtype=torch.float16)
pipe.load_lora_weights(
    "guoyww/animatediff-motion-lora-zoom-out", adapter_name="zoom-out"
)

scheduler = DDIMScheduler.from_pretrained(
    model_id,
    subfolder="scheduler",
    clip_sample=False,
    beta_schedule="linear",
    timestep_spacing="linspace",
    steps_offset=1,
)
pipe.scheduler = scheduler

# enable memory savings
pipe.enable_vae_slicing()
pipe.enable_model_cpu_offload()

output = pipe(
    prompt=(
        "masterpiece, bestquality, highlydetailed, ultradetailed, sunset, "
        "orange sky, warm lighting, fishing boats, ocean waves seagulls, "
        "rippling water, wharf, silhouette, serene atmosphere, dusk, evening glow, "
        "golden hour, coastal landscape, seaside scenery"
    ),
    negative_prompt="bad quality, worse quality",
    num_frames=16,
    guidance_scale=7.5,
    num_inference_steps=25,
    generator=torch.Generator("cpu").manual_seed(42),
)
frames = output.frames[0]
export_to_gif(frames, "animation.gif")

Using Motion LoRAs with PEFT

You can also leverage the PEFT backend to combine Motion LoRA's and create more complex animations.

First install PEFT with

pip install peft

Then you can use the following code to combine Motion LoRAs.

import torch
from diffusers import AnimateDiffPipeline, DDIMScheduler, MotionAdapter
from diffusers.utils import export_to_gif

# Load the motion adapter
adapter = MotionAdapter.from_pretrained("guoyww/animatediff-motion-adapter-v1-5-2", torch_dtype=torch.float16)
# load SD 1.5 based finetuned model
model_id = "SG161222/Realistic_Vision_V5.1_noVAE"
pipe = AnimateDiffPipeline.from_pretrained(model_id, motion_adapter=adapter, torch_dtype=torch.float16)

pipe.load_lora_weights(
    "diffusers/animatediff-motion-lora-zoom-out", adapter_name="zoom-out",
)
pipe.load_lora_weights(
    "diffusers/animatediff-motion-lora-pan-left", adapter_name="pan-left",
)
pipe.set_adapters(["zoom-out", "pan-left"], adapter_weights=[1.0, 1.0])

scheduler = DDIMScheduler.from_pretrained(
    model_id,
    subfolder="scheduler",
    clip_sample=False,
    timestep_spacing="linspace",
    beta_schedule="linear",
    steps_offset=1,
)
pipe.scheduler = scheduler

# enable memory savings
pipe.enable_vae_slicing()
pipe.enable_model_cpu_offload()

output = pipe(
    prompt=(
        "masterpiece, bestquality, highlydetailed, ultradetailed, sunset, "
        "orange sky, warm lighting, fishing boats, ocean waves seagulls, "
        "rippling water, wharf, silhouette, serene atmosphere, dusk, evening glow, "
        "golden hour, coastal landscape, seaside scenery"
    ),
    negative_prompt="bad quality, worse quality",
    num_frames=16,
    guidance_scale=7.5,
    num_inference_steps=25,
    generator=torch.Generator("cpu").manual_seed(42),
)
frames = output.frames[0]
export_to_gif(frames, "animation.gif")

Using FreeInit

FreeInit: Bridging Initialization Gap in Video Diffusion Models by Tianxing Wu, Chenyang Si, Yuming Jiang, Ziqi Huang, Ziwei Liu.

FreeInit is an effective method that improves temporal consistency and overall quality of videos generated using video-diffusion-models without any addition training. It can be applied to AnimateDiff, ModelScope, VideoCrafter and various other video generation models seamlessly at inference time, and works by iteratively refining the latent-initialization noise. More details can be found it the paper.

The following example demonstrates the usage of FreeInit.

import torch
from diffusers import MotionAdapter, AnimateDiffPipeline, DDIMScheduler
from diffusers.utils import export_to_gif

adapter = MotionAdapter.from_pretrained("guoyww/animatediff-motion-adapter-v1-5-2")
model_id = "SG161222/Realistic_Vision_V5.1_noVAE"
pipe = AnimateDiffPipeline.from_pretrained(model_id, motion_adapter=adapter, torch_dtype=torch.float16).to("cuda")
pipe.scheduler = DDIMScheduler.from_pretrained(
    model_id,
    subfolder="scheduler",
    beta_schedule="linear",
    clip_sample=False,
    timestep_spacing="linspace",
    steps_offset=1
)

# enable memory savings
pipe.enable_vae_slicing()
pipe.enable_vae_tiling()

# enable FreeInit
# Refer to the enable_free_init documentation for a full list of configurable parameters
pipe.enable_free_init(method="butterworth", use_fast_sampling=True)

# run inference
output = pipe(
    prompt="a panda playing a guitar, on a boat, in the ocean, high quality",
    negative_prompt="bad quality, worse quality",
    num_frames=16,
    guidance_scale=7.5,
    num_inference_steps=20,
    generator=torch.Generator("cpu").manual_seed(666),
)

# disable FreeInit
pipe.disable_free_init()

frames = output.frames[0]
export_to_gif(frames, "animation.gif")

FreeInit is not really free - the improved quality comes at the cost of extra computation. It requires sampling a few extra times depending on the num_iters parameter that is set when enabling it. Setting the use_fast_sampling parameter to True can improve the overall performance (at the cost of lower quality compared to when use_fast_sampling=False but still better results than vanilla video generation models).

Make sure to check out the Schedulers guide to learn how to explore the tradeoff between scheduler speed and quality, and see the reuse components across pipelines section to learn how to efficiently load the same components into multiple pipelines.

Using AnimateLCM

AnimateLCM is a motion module checkpoint and an LCM LoRA that have been created using a consistency learning strategy that decouples the distillation of the image generation priors and the motion generation priors.

import torch
from diffusers import AnimateDiffPipeline, LCMScheduler, MotionAdapter
from diffusers.utils import export_to_gif

adapter = MotionAdapter.from_pretrained("wangfuyun/AnimateLCM")
pipe = AnimateDiffPipeline.from_pretrained("emilianJR/epiCRealism", motion_adapter=adapter)
pipe.scheduler = LCMScheduler.from_config(pipe.scheduler.config, beta_schedule="linear")

pipe.load_lora_weights("wangfuyun/AnimateLCM", weight_name="sd15_lora_beta.safetensors", adapter_name="lcm-lora")

pipe.enable_vae_slicing()
pipe.enable_model_cpu_offload()

output = pipe(
    prompt="A space rocket with trails of smoke behind it launching into space from the desert, 4k, high resolution",
    negative_prompt="bad quality, worse quality, low resolution",
    num_frames=16,
    guidance_scale=1.5,
    num_inference_steps=6,
    generator=torch.Generator("cpu").manual_seed(0),
)
frames = output.frames[0]
export_to_gif(frames, "animatelcm.gif")

A space rocket, 4K.

AnimateLCM is also compatible with existing Motion LoRAs.

import torch
from diffusers import AnimateDiffPipeline, LCMScheduler, MotionAdapter
from diffusers.utils import export_to_gif

adapter = MotionAdapter.from_pretrained("wangfuyun/AnimateLCM")
pipe = AnimateDiffPipeline.from_pretrained("emilianJR/epiCRealism", motion_adapter=adapter)
pipe.scheduler = LCMScheduler.from_config(pipe.scheduler.config, beta_schedule="linear")

pipe.load_lora_weights("wangfuyun/AnimateLCM", weight_name="sd15_lora_beta.safetensors", adapter_name="lcm-lora")
pipe.load_lora_weights("guoyww/animatediff-motion-lora-tilt-up", adapter_name="tilt-up")

pipe.set_adapters(["lcm-lora", "tilt-up"], [1.0, 0.8])
pipe.enable_vae_slicing()
pipe.enable_model_cpu_offload()

output = pipe(
    prompt="A space rocket with trails of smoke behind it launching into space from the desert, 4k, high resolution",
    negative_prompt="bad quality, worse quality, low resolution",
    num_frames=16,
    guidance_scale=1.5,
    num_inference_steps=6,
    generator=torch.Generator("cpu").manual_seed(0),
)
frames = output.frames[0]
export_to_gif(frames, "animatelcm-motion-lora.gif")

A space rocket, 4K.

Using from_single_file with the MotionAdapter

diffusers>=0.30.0 supports loading the AnimateDiff checkpoints into the MotionAdapter in their original format via from_single_file

from diffusers import MotionAdapter

ckpt_path = "https://huggingface.co/Lightricks/LongAnimateDiff/blob/main/lt_long_mm_32_frames.ckpt"

adapter = MotionAdapter.from_single_file(ckpt_path, torch_dtype=torch.float16)
pipe = AnimateDiffPipeline.from_pretrained("emilianJR/epiCRealism", motion_adapter=adapter)
