# What is latent blending?
|
|
|
|
Latent blending allows you to generate smooth video transitions between two prompts. It is based on [stable diffusion 2.1](https://stability.ai/blog/stablediffusion2-1-release7-dec-2022) and remixes the latent reprensetation using spherical linear interpolations. This results in imperceptible transitions, where one image slowly turns into another one.
|
|
|
|
# Quickstart
|
|
```python
|
|
fp_ckpt = 'path_to_SD2.ckpt'
|
|
fp_config = 'path_to_config.yaml'
|
|
sdh = StableDiffusionHolder(fp_ckpt, fp_config, device)
|
|
lb = LatentBlending(sdh)
|
|
lb.load_branching_profile(quality='medium', depth_strength=0.4)
|
|
lb.set_prompt1('photo of my first prompt1')
|
|
lb.set_prompt2('photo of my second prompt')
|
|
imgs_transition = lb.run_transition()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Example 1: Simple transition
|
|
|
|
To run a simple transition between two prompts, run `example1_standard.py`
|
|
|
|
## Example 2: Inpainting transition
|
|
|
|
To run a transition between two prompts where you want some part of the image to remain static, run `example2_inpaint.py`
|
|
|
|
## Example 3: concatenated transition
|
|
To run multiple transition between K prompts, resulting in a stitched video, run `example3_multitrans.py`

# Installation
|
|
#### Packages
|
|
```commandline
|
|
pip install -r requirements.txt
|
|
```
|
|
#### Download Models from Huggingface
|
|
[Download the Stable Diffusion v2-1_768 Model](https://huggingface.co/stabilityai/stable-diffusion-2-1)
|
|
|
|
[Download the Stable Diffusion 2.0 Inpainting Model (optional)](https://huggingface.co/stabilityai/stable-diffusion-2-inpainting)
|
|
|
|
#### (Optional) Install [Xformers](https://github.com/facebookresearch/xformers)
|
|
With xformers, stable diffusion 2 will run a bit faster. The recommended way of installation is via the supplied binaries (Linux).
|
|
|
|
```commandline
|
|
conda install xformers -c xformers/label/dev
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, you can build it from source:
|
|
```commandline
|
|
# (Optional) Makes the build much faster
|
|
pip install ninja
|
|
# Set TORCH_CUDA_ARCH_LIST if running and building on different GPU types
|
|
pip install -v -U git+https://github.com/facebookresearch/xformers.git@main#egg=xformers
|
|
# (this can take dozens of minutes)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# How does it work

what makes a transition a good transition?
|
|
* absence of movement
|
|
* every frame looks like a credible photo
