conda create -n vgen python=3.8
conda activate vgen
pip install torch==1.12.0+cu113 torchvision==0.13.0+cu113 torchaudio==0.12.0 --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu113
pip install -r requirements.txt -i https://pypi.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/simple
You also need to ensure that your system has installed the ffmpeg command. If it is not installed, you can install it using the following command:
sudo apt-get update && apt-get install ffmpeg libsm6 libxext6 -y
We have provided a demo dataset that includes images and videos, along with their lists in data.
Please note that the demo images used here are for testing purposes and were not included in the training.
git clone https://github.com/ali-vilab/VGen.git
cd VGen
Executing the following command to enable distributed training is as easy as that.
python train_net.py --cfg configs/t2v_train.yaml
In the t2v_train.yaml configuration file, you can specify the data, adjust the video-to-image ratio using frame_lens, and validate your ideas with different Diffusion settings, and so on.
- Before the training, you can download any of our open-source models for initialization. Our codebase supports custom initialization and
grad_scalesettings, all of which are included in thePretrainitem in yaml file. - During the training, you can view the saved models and intermediate inference results in the
workspace/experiments/t2v_traindirectory.
After the training is completed, you can perform inference on the model using the following command.
python inference.py --cfg configs/t2v_infer.yaml
Then you can find the videos you generated in the workspace/experiments/test_img_01 directory. For specific configurations such as data, models, seed, etc., please refer to the t2v_infer.yaml file.
If you want to directly load our previously open-sourced Modelscope T2V model, please refer to this link.
(i) Download model and test data:
!pip install modelscope
from modelscope.hub.snapshot_download import snapshot_download
model_dir = snapshot_download('damo/I2VGen-XL', cache_dir='models/', revision='v1.0.0')
or you can also download it through HuggingFace (https://huggingface.co/damo-vilab/i2vgen-xl):
# Make sure you have git-lfs installed (https://git-lfs.com)
git lfs install
git clone https://huggingface.co/damo-vilab/i2vgen-xl
(ii) Run the following command:
python inference.py --cfg configs/i2vgen_xl_infer.yaml
or you can run:
python inference.py --cfg configs/i2vgen_xl_infer.yaml test_list_path data/test_list_for_i2vgen.txt test_model models/i2vgen_xl_00854500.pth
The test_list_path represents the input image path and its corresponding caption. Please refer to the specific format and suggestions within demo file data/test_list_for_i2vgen.txt. test_model is the path for loading the model. In a few minutes, you can retrieve the high-definition video you wish to create from the workspace/experiments/test_list_for_i2vgen directory. At present, we find that the current model performs inadequately on anime images and images with a black background due to the lack of relevant training data. We are consistently working to optimize it.
(iii) Run the gradio app locally:
python gradio_app.py
(iv) Run the model on ModelScope and HuggingFace:

(i) Subject Learning
Step 1: learn a textual identity using Textual Inversion.
python train_net.py --cfg configs/dreamvideo/subjectLearning/dog2_subjectLearning_step1.yaml
Step 2: train an identity adapter by incorporating the learned textual identity.
python train_net.py --cfg configs/dreamvideo/subjectLearning/dog2_subjectLearning_step2.yaml
Tips:
- Generally, step 1 takes
1500 to 3000training steps, and step 2 takes500 to 1000training steps. For certain subjects (like cats, etc.), excessive training may generate unnatural videos, and using text embedding with fewer training steps or reducing the training steps of step 2 may help. - For some subjects (like dogs, etc.), setting
use_mask_diffusiontoTruemay achieve better results. Make sure to put the binary masks of the subject into the folderdata/images/custom/YOUR_SUBJECT/masks, and you can use SAM to obtain these masks.
(ii) Motion Learning
Train a motion adapter on the given videos.
python train_net.py --cfg configs/dreamvideo/motionLearning/carTurn_motionLearning.yaml
You can customize your own configuration files for subject/motion learning.
Tips:
- Generally, motion learning takes
500 to 2000training steps. - Try setting
p_image_zerofrom0 to 0.5to adjust the effect of appearance guidance during training. - Try increasing training steps or increasing the learning rate for single video motion customization to better align the motion pattern.
(i) Subject Customization
python inference.py --cfg configs/dreamvideo/infer/subject_dog2.yaml
(ii) Motion Customization
python inference.py --cfg configs/dreamvideo/infer/motion_carTurn.yaml
For inference with appearance guidance, make sure to add images of foreground objects (e.g., any image of a bear) to the folder data/images/motionReferenceImgs and modify your test file.
Tips:
- Try setting
appearance_guide_strength_condandappearance_guide_strength_uncondfrom0 to 1to adjust the effect of appearance guidance during inference. - We do not use DDIM Inversion by default. However, for single video motion customization, you can try setting
inverse_noise_strengthto0~0.5to better align the training video. For multi-video motion customization, we recommend settinginverse_noise_strengthto0.
(iii) Joint Customization
python inference.py --cfg configs/dreamvideo/infer/joint_dog2_carTurn.yaml
Tips:
- Try changing
identity_adapter_indexandmotion_adapter_indexfor better results. Typically, increasing identity_adapter_index improves identity preservation, while increasing motion_adapter_index enhances motion alignment. Balance the two for optimal results.
We provide some examples for inference. Before you start, make sure you download the models.
(i) Subject Customization
python inference.py --cfg configs/dreamvideo/infer/examples/subject_dog2.yaml
python inference.py --cfg configs/dreamvideo/infer/examples/subject_wolf_plushie.yaml

(i) Download model:
!pip install modelscope
from modelscope.hub.snapshot_download import snapshot_download
model_dir = snapshot_download('iic/tf-t2v', cache_dir='models/')
Then you might need the following command to move the checkpoints to the "models/" directory:
mv ./models/iic/tf-t2v/* ./models/
(ii) We provide a config file for generating 16-frame video with 448x256 resolution. The command is as follows:
python inference.py --cfg configs/tft2v_t2v_infer.yaml
(If there are environmental problems during operation, we also provide the environment configuration "tft2v_environment.yaml" of TF-T2V for your reference.)
In a few minutes, you can retrieve the videos you wish to create from the workspace/experiments/text_list_for_tft2v directory.

python inference.py --cfg configs/videolcm_vcomposer_infer.yaml
Feel free to reach out ([email protected]) if have questions.
The training of InstructVideo requires video-text pairs to save computational cost during reward fine-tuning. In the paper, we utilize a small set of videos in WebVid to fine-tune our base model. The file list is shown under the folder:
data/instructvideo/webvid_simple_animals_2_selected_20_train_file_list/00000.txt
You should try filtering the videos from your webvid dataset to compose the training data. Another alternative is to use your own video-text pairs. (I tested InstructVideo on WebVid data and some proprietary data. Both worked.)
Concerning the environment configuration, you should follow the instructions for VGen installation.
!pip install modelscope
from modelscope.hub.snapshot_download import snapshot_download
model_dir = snapshot_download('iic/InstructVideo', cache_dir='models/')
You need to move the checkpoints to the "models/" directory:
mv ./models/iic/InstructVideo/* ./models/
Note that models/model_scope_v1-4_0600000.pth is the pre-trained base model used in the paper.
The fine-tuned model is placed under the folder models/instructvideo-finetuned.
You can get access to the provided files on Instructvideo ModelScope Page.
You can leverage the provided fine-tuned checkpoints to generate videos by running the command:
bash configs/instructvideo/eval_generate_videos.sh
This command uses yaml files under configs/instructvideo/eval, containing caption file paths for generating videos of in-domain animals, new animals and non-animals.
Feel free to switch among them or replace them with your own captions.
Although we fine-tuned using 20-step DDIM, you can still use 50-step DDIM generation.
You can perform InstrcutVideo reward fine-tuning by running the command:
bash configs/instructvideo/train.sh
Since performing reward fine-tuning can lead to over-optimization, I strongly recommend checking the generation performance on some evaluation captions regularly (like the captions indicated in configs/instructvideo/eval).
In preparation!!
Our codebase essentially supports all the commonly used components in video generation. You can manage your experiments flexibly by adding corresponding registration classes, including ENGINE, MODEL, DATASETS, EMBEDDER, AUTO_ENCODER, VISUAL, DIFFUSION, PRETRAIN, and can be compatible with all our open-source algorithms according to your own needs. If you have any questions, feel free to give us your feedback at any time.
