Here is a detailed user guide for using Wan 2.2 Animate in ComfyUI, based on the video you provided.
Introduction to Wan 2.2 Animate
Wan 2.2 Animate is a powerful tool within ComfyUI that allows you to control and animate characters. Its primary function is to take the motion from an input video (like a person dancing) and apply it to a static reference image (your desired character), generating a new video [03:29, 03:53].
You can use it in two main ways:
- Full Scene Replacement: Redreams the entire world, placing your character from the reference image into a completely new, AI-generated scene that follows the camera movement of the original video [09:11].
- Character Inpainting: Replaces only the character from the original video and realistically inpaints your new character back into the original, existing background [03:53, 08:43].
Step-by-Step User Guide
This guide uses the Wan video Wrapper example workflow, which simplifies the process.
1. Get the Workflow:
- This guide is based on the example workflow that comes with the Wan video Wrapper custom node [07:08].
- You can find this specific workflow in the wrapper's example folder, likely named
Wan video one animate pre-process example [07:31].
- The video also provides a direct link to the workflow:
blog.comfy.org (under the "one generator one 2.2 animate" post) [24:35, 01:00:13].
2. Load Your Assets:
- Input Video: Load the video you want to extract the motion from. This can be any video of a person moving, and AI-generated footage from models like Sora or VO works great as a source [08:22, 21:02].
- Reference Image: Load the static image of the character you want to animate. This workflow can even use multiple images to mash up concepts (like a person and specific clothes) [08:29, 09:51].
