Setup

1. Download Weights

All pre-trained weights are downloaded to checkpoints/ directory, including the pre-trained weights of Stable Diffusion v1.5, ControlNet 1.0 conditioned on canny edges, depth maps, human poses, and ControlNet 1.1 in here. The flownet.pkl is the weights of RIFE. The final file tree likes:

checkpoints
├── stable-diffusion-v1-5
├── sd-controlnet-canny
├── sd-controlnet-depth
├── sd-controlnet-openpose
├── ...
├── flownet.pkl

2. Requirements

conda create -n controlvideo python=3.10
conda activate controlvideo
pip install -r requirements.txt

Note: xformers is recommended to save memory and running time. controlnet-aux is updated to version 0.0.6.

Inference

To perform text-to-video generation, just run this command in inference.sh:

python inference.py \
    --prompt "A striking mallard floats effortlessly on the sparkling pond." \
    --condition "depth" \
    --video_path "data/mallard-water.mp4" \
    --output_path "outputs/" \
    --video_length 15 \
    --smoother_steps 19 20 \
    --width 512 \
    --height 512 \
    --frame_rate 2 \
    --version v10 \
    # --is_long_video

where --video_length is the length of synthesized video, --condition represents the type of structure sequence, --smoother_steps determines at which timesteps to perform smoothing, --version selects the version of ControlNet (e.g., v10 or v11), and --is_long_video denotes whether to enable efficient long-video synthesis.
