give me the python code for this workflow
Absolutely! Here’s a modular Python workflow that orchestrates the core steps of a
professional image-to-video pipeline as described above. This code assumes you have the
necessary models and tools installed locally (see notes below for details and links).
1. Image-to-Video Generation (Hunyuan-DiT or Stable Video Diffusion)
# Requires: diffusers, torch, PIL, numpy
from diffusers import StableVideoDiffusionPipeline # Substitute with Hunyuan if availabl
from PIL import Image
import torch
# Load your source image
image = [Link]("input_image.png").convert("RGB").resize((1024, 1024))
# Load the video diffusion pipeline (replace with Hunyuan if you have it)
pipe = StableVideoDiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained("stabilityai/stable-video-diffusion-i
pipe = [Link]("cuda")
# Generate video frames
video_frames = pipe(image, num_frames=64, guidance_scale=12.5, num_inference_steps=100).f
# Save frames as PNGs
for idx, frame in enumerate(video_frames):
[Link](f"frames/frame_{idx:04d}.png")
2. Frame Interpolation (RIFE v4.7)
# Requires: rife-ncnn-vulkan or torch-rife, OpenCV
import cv2
import os
from rife_infer import RIFE
# Initialize RIFE model (torch version)
rife = RIFE(model_path="rife_model.pth", device="cuda")
input_dir = "frames"
output_dir = "interp_frames"
[Link](output_dir, exist_ok=True)
frame_files = sorted([f for f in [Link](input_dir) if [Link]('.png')])
for i in range(len(frame_files) - 1):
img1 = [Link]([Link](input_dir, frame_files[i]))
img2 = [Link]([Link](input_dir, frame_files[i+1]))
# Interpolate intermediate frame
mid = [Link](img1, img2)
[Link]([Link](output_dir, f"frame_{2*i:05d}.png"), img1)
[Link]([Link](output_dir, f"frame_{2*i+1:05d}.png"), mid)
# Save last frame
[Link]([Link](output_dir, f"frame_{2*len(frame_files)-2:05d}.png"), img2)
3. Multi-Stage Upscaling (SD Upscaler + ESRGAN)
A. Stable Diffusion Upscaler
# Requires: diffusers, torch, PIL
from diffusers import StableDiffusionUpscalePipeline
upscale_pipe = StableDiffusionUpscalePipeline.from_pretrained("stabilityai/stable-diffusi
upscale_pipe = upscale_pipe.to("cuda")
interp_dir = "interp_frames"
upscaled_dir = "upscaled_frames"
[Link](upscaled_dir, exist_ok=True)
for frame_file in sorted([Link](interp_dir)):
frame = [Link]([Link](interp_dir, frame_file)).convert("RGB")
upscaled = upscale_pipe(prompt="4k, cinematic texture, sharp edges, no grain, photore
[Link]([Link](upscaled_dir, frame_file))
B. ESRGAN 8K Upscaling
You can use the Real-ESRGAN command-line tool or GFPGAN/ESRGAN Python bindings for this
step. Here’s a simple subprocess call:
import subprocess
final_dir = "final_frames"
[Link](final_dir, exist_ok=True)
for frame_file in sorted([Link](upscaled_dir)):
input_path = [Link](upscaled_dir, frame_file)
output_path = [Link](final_dir, frame_file)
[Link]([
"realesrgan-ncnn-vulkan", "-i", input_path, "-o", output_path, "-n", "realesrgan-
])
4. Assemble Video
import cv2
frame_folder = "final_frames"
video_name = "output_video.mp4"
fps = 60 # After interpolation
frames = sorted([[Link](frame_folder, f) for f in [Link](frame_folder) if [Link]
frame = [Link](frames[0])
height, width, layers = [Link]
fourcc = cv2.VideoWriter_fourcc(*'mp4v')
video = [Link](video_name, fourcc, fps, (width, height))
for frame_path in frames:
img = [Link](frame_path)
[Link](img)
[Link]()
5. Post-Processing (Color Grading & Noise Reduction)
Color Grading: Use DaVinci Resolve’s scripting API to automate grading.
Noise Reduction: Use Neat Video as a plugin in DaVinci or Adobe Premiere.
Automating these steps in Python is possible via scripting, but typically you’ll export the video
and process it in your NLE (Non-Linear Editor) with plugins for best results.
Notes & Recommendations
Hardware: This workflow is GPU-intensive and assumes you have a high-end NVIDIA GPU
(e.g., RTX 4090, RTX 6000 Ada, or A100).
Models: Download and place required model weights for RIFE, Stable Diffusion, and
ESRGAN as per their documentation.
Batch Processing: For large-scale production, consider orchestrating these steps with a
workflow manager (e.g., Airflow, Prefect, or even shell scripts).
Professional Use: For broadcast/film, always review and tweak final color and noise
settings in a professional NLE.
