How to use Yuppie1204/LayerAnimate-Mix with Diffusers:
pip install -U diffusers transformers accelerate
import torch
from diffusers import DiffusionPipeline
from diffusers.utils import load_image, export_to_video
# switch to "mps" for apple devices
pipe = DiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained("Yuppie1204/LayerAnimate-Mix", dtype=torch.bfloat16, device_map="cuda")
pipe.to("cuda")
prompt = "A man with short gray hair plays a red electric guitar."
image = load_image(
"https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/diffusers/guitar-man.png"
)
output = pipe(image=image, prompt=prompt).frames[0]
export_to_video(output, "output.mp4")
LayerAnimate is a novel video diffusion framework with layer-aware architecture that empowers the manipulation of layers through layer-level controls.
