This workflow transforms static images into cinematic videos with dynamic camera motions, featuring:

  1. 3D Orbital Effects: Convert 2D images to 3D perspectives via LoRA.

  2. Smart Camera Movement: Simulate professional shots (dolly/pan/rotate).

  3. Multi-Style Support: Adapt to cyberpunk, ancient styles, etc.

  4. HD Output: Generate 480P videos (16FPS) via Wan2.1 model.

Use Cases: Product demos, architectural visualization, game trailers, short videos.

4. Workflow Groups

  1. Model Loading Group

    • Load Wan2.1 base model + Orbital LoRA (weight=1).

    • Initialize UMT5 text and CLIP vision encoders.

  2. Input Processing Group

    • Image Input: Static scene (e.g., cyberpunk_city.jpeg).

    • Text Prompts:

      • Positive: "smooth camera rotation around"

      • Negative: Exclude static/low-quality terms.

  3. Video Generation Group

    • Sampling:

      • Sampler: dpm++_sde (20 steps, CFG=5).

      • Fixed seed (1057359483639287) for reproducibility.

    • Resolution: 480x832 (adaptive to landscape/portrait).

  4. Output Group

    • 16FPS MP4 video (CRF=19 for quality/size balance).


5. Inputs & Outputs

  • Required Inputs:

    • Image: ≥1024x1024, clear subject (e.g., building/product).

    • Motion Prompt: English instructions (e.g., "pan left slowly").

  • Output:

    • Video file (default output.mp4) with metadata.


6. Notes

  1. Hardware:

    • ≥12GB VRAM (RTX 3090+), UMT5-XXL requires BF16 support.

  2. LoRA Tuning:

    • Weight >1 enhances 3D effects but may reduce stability.

  3. Troubleshooting:

    • Artifacts: Lower CFG (current=5) or reduce motion range.

    • Flickering: Enable teacache_args VRAM optimization.

  4. Extensibility:

    • Swap LoRAs (e.g., 360_rotation/time_lapse) for different styles.
