Our method Text2Video-Zero enables zero-shot video generation using (i) a textual prompt (see rows 1, 2), (ii) a prompt combined with guidance from poses or edges (see lower right), and (iii) Video Instruct-Pix2Pix, i.e., instruction-guided video editing (see lower left).
Results are temporally consistent and follow closely the guidance and textual prompts.
- [03/23/2023] Paper Text2Video-Zero released!
- [03/25/2023] The first version of our huggingface demo (containing
zero-shot text-to-video generation
andVideo Instruct Pix2Pix
) released! - [03/27/2023] The full version of our huggingface demo released! Now also included:
text and pose conditional video generation
,text and canny-edge conditional video generation
, andtext, canny-edge and dreambooth conditional video generation
. - [03/28/2023] Code for all our generation methods released! We added a new low-memory setup. Minimum required GPU VRAM is currently 12 GB. It will be further reduced in the upcoming releases.
pip install -r requirements.txt
Download the pose model weights used in ControlNet:
wget -P annotator/ckpts https://huggingface.co/lllyasviel/ControlNet/resolve/main/annotator/ckpts/hand_pose_model.pth
wget -P annotator/ckpts https://huggingface.co/lllyasviel/ControlNet/resolve/main/annotator/ckpts/body_pose_model.pth
Integrate a SD1.4
Dreambooth model into ControlNet using this procedure. Load the model into models/control_db/
. Dreambooth models can be obtained, for instance, from CIVITAI.
We provide already prepared model files for anime
(keyword 1girl
), arcane style
(keyword arcane style
) avatar
(keyword avatar style
) and gta-5 style
(keyword gtav style
). To this end, download the model files from google drive and extract them into models/control_db/
.
To run inferences create an instance of Model
class
import torch
from model import Model
model = Model(device = "cuda", dtype = torch.float16)
To directly call our text-to-video generator, run this python command which stores the result in tmp/text2video/A_horse_galloping_on_a_street.mp4
:
from pathlib import Path
prompt = "A horse galloping on a street"
params = {"t0": 44, "t1": 47 , "motion_field_strength_x" : 12, "motion_field_strength_y" : 12, "video_length": 8}
out_path, fps = Path(f"tmp/text2video/{prompt.replace(' ','_')}.mp4"), 4
if not out_path.parent.exists():
out_path.parent.mkdir(parents=True)
model.process_text2video(prompt, fps = fps, path = out_path.as_posix(), **params)
You can define the following hyperparameters:
-
Motion field strength:
motion_field_strength_x
=$\delta_x$ andmotion_field_strength_y
=$\delta_x$ (see our paper, Sect. 3.3.1). Default:motion_field_strength_x=motion_field_strength_y= 12
. -
$T$ and$T'$ (see our paper, Sect. 3.3.1). Define valuest0
andt1
in the range{0,...,50}
. Default:t0=44
,t1=47
(DDIM steps). Corresponds to timesteps881
and941
, respectively. -
Video length: Define the number of frames
video_length
to be generated. Default:video_length=8
.
To directly call our text-to-video generator with pose control, run this python command:
from pathlib import Path
prompt = 'an astronaut dancing in outer space'
motion_path = Path('__assets__/poses_skeleton_gifs/dance1_corr.mp4')
out_path = Path(f'./{prompt}.gif')
model.process_controlnet_pose(motion_path.as_posix(), prompt=prompt, save_path=out_path.as_posix())
To directly call our text-to-video generator with edge control, run this python command:
from pathlib import Path
prompt = 'oil painting of a deer, a high-quality, detailed, and professional photo'
video_path = Path('__assets__/canny_videos_mp4/deer.mp4')
out_path = Path(f'./{prompt}.mp4')
model.process_controlnet_canny(video_path.as_posix(), prompt=prompt, save_path=out_path.as_posix())
You can define the following hyperparameters for Canny edge detection:
-
low threshold. Define value
low_threshold
in the range$(0, 255)$ . Default:low_threshold=100
. -
high threshold. Define value
high_threshold
in the range$(0, 255)$ . Default:high_threshold=200
. Make sure thathigh_threshold
>low_threshold
.
You can give hyperparameters as arguments to model.process_controlnet_canny
Load a dreambooth model then proceed as described in Text-To-Video with Edge Guidance
from pathlib import Path
prompt = 'your prompt'
video_path = Path('path/to/your/video')
dreambooth_model_path = Path('path/to/your/dreambooth/model')
out_path = Path(f'./{prompt}.gif')
model.process_controlnet_canny_db(dreambooth_model_path.as_posix(), video_path.as_posix(), prompt=prompt, save_path=out_path.as_posix())
To perform pix2pix video editing, run this python command:
from pathlib import Path
prompt = 'make it Van Gogh Starry Night'
video_path = Path('__assets__/pix2pix video/camel.mp4')
out_path = Path(f'./{prompt}.mp4')
model.process_pix2pix(video_path.as_posix(), prompt=prompt, save_path=out_path.as_posix())
Each of the above introduced interface can be run in a low memory setup. In the minimal setup, a GPU with 12 GB VRAM is sufficient.
To reduce the memory usage, add chunk_size=k
as additional parameter when calling one of the above defined inference APIs. The integer value k
must be in the range {2,...,video_length}
. It defines the number of frames that are processed at once (without any loss in quality). The lower the value the less memory is needed.
We plan to release soon a new version that further reduces the memory usage.
To replicate the ablation study, add additional parameters when calling the above defined inference APIs.
- To deactivate
cross-frame attention
: Adduse_cf_attn=False
to the parameter list. - To deactivate enriching latent codes with
motion dynamics
: Adduse_motion_field=False
to the parameter list.
From the project root folder, run this shell command:
python app.py
Then access the app locally with a browser.
