Wan: Open and Advanced Large-Scale Video Generative Models

We are excited to introduce Wan2.2, a major upgrade to our foundational video models. With Wan2.2, we have focused on incorporating the following innovations:

• 👍 Effective MoE Architecture: Wan2.2 introduces a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture into video diffusion models. By separating the denoising process cross timesteps with specialized powerful expert models, this enlarges the overall model capacity while maintaining the same computational cost.
• 👍 Cinematic-level Aesthetics: Wan2.2 incorporates meticulously curated aesthetic data, complete with detailed labels for lighting, composition, contrast, color tone, and more. This allows for more precise and controllable cinematic style generation, facilitating the creation of videos with customizable aesthetic preferences.
• 👍 Complex Motion Generation: Compared to Wan2.1, Wan2.2 is trained on a significantly larger data, with +65.6% more images and +83.2% more videos. This expansion notably enhances the model's generalization across multiple dimensions such as motions, semantics, and aesthetics, achieving TOP performance among all open-sourced and closed-sourced models.
• 👍 Efficient High-Definition Hybrid TI2V: Wan2.2 open-sources a 5B model built with our advanced Wan2.2-VAE that achieves a compression ratio of 16×16×4. This model supports both text-to-video and image-to-video generation at 720P resolution with 24fps and can also run on consumer-grade graphics cards like 4090. It is one of the fastest 720P@24fps models currently available, capable of serving both the industrial and academic sectors simultaneously.

Run Wan-Animate-14B#

Wan-Animate takes a video and a character image as input, and generates a video in either "animation" or "replacement" mode.

1. animation mode： The model generates a video of the character image that mimics the human motion in the input video.
2. replacement mode: The model replaces the character image with the input video.

Please visit our project page to see more examples and learn about the scenarios suitable for this model.

(1) Preprocessing#

The input video should be preprocessed into several materials before be feed into the inference process. Please refer to the following processing flow, and more details about preprocessing can be found in UserGuider.

• For animation

python ./wan/modules/animate/preprocess/preprocess_data.py \
    --ckpt_path ./Wan2.2-Animate-14B/process_checkpoint \
    --video_path ./examples/wan_animate/animate/video.mp4 \
    --refer_path ./examples/wan_animate/animate/image.jpeg \
    --save_path ./examples/wan_animate/animate/process_results \
    --resolution_area 1280 720 \
    --retarget_flag \
    --use_flux

• For replacement

python ./wan/modules/animate/preprocess/preprocess_data.py \
    --ckpt_path ./Wan2.2-Animate-14B/process_checkpoint \
    --video_path ./examples/wan_animate/replace/video.mp4 \
    --refer_path ./examples/wan_animate/replace/image.jpeg \
    --save_path ./examples/wan_animate/replace/process_results \
    --resolution_area 1280 720 \
    --iterations 3 \
    --k 7 \
    --w_len 1 \
    --h_len 1 \
    --replace_flag

(2) Run in animation mode#

• Single-GPU inference

python generate.py --task animate-14B --ckpt_dir ./Wan2.2-Animate-14B/ --src_root_path ./examples/wan_animate/animate/process_results/ --refert_num 1

• Multi-GPU inference using FSDP + DeepSpeed Ulysses

python -m torch.distributed.run --nnodes 1 --nproc_per_node 8 generate.py --task animate-14B --ckpt_dir ./Wan2.2-Animate-14B/ --src_root_path ./examples/wan_animate/animate/process_results/ --refert_num 1 --dit_fsdp --t5_fsdp --ulysses_size 8

(3) Run in replacement mode#

• Single-GPU inference

python generate.py --task animate-14B --ckpt_dir ./Wan2.2-Animate-14B/ --src_root_path ./examples/wan_animate/replace/process_results/ --refert_num 1 --replace_flag --use_relighting_lora 

• Multi-GPU inference using FSDP + DeepSpeed Ulysses

python -m torch.distributed.run --nnodes 1 --nproc_per_node 8 generate.py --task animate-14B --ckpt_dir ./Wan2.2-Animate-14B/ --src_root_path ./examples/wan_animate/replace/process_results/src_pose.mp4  --refert_num 1 --replace_flag --use_relighting_lora --dit_fsdp --t5_fsdp --ulysses_size 8

💡 If you're using Wan-Animate, we do not recommend using LoRA models trained on Wan2.2, since weight changes during training may lead to unexpected behavior.

Computational Efficiency on Different GPUs#

We test the computational efficiency of different Wan2.2 models on different GPUs in the following table. The results are presented in the format: Total time (s) / peak GPU memory (GB).

Image: image

The parameter settings for the tests presented in this table are as follows: (1) Multi-GPU: 14B: --ulysses_size 4/8 --dit_fsdp --t5_fsdp, 5B: --ulysses_size 4/8 --offload_model True --convert_model_dtype --t5_cpu; Single-GPU: 14B: --offload_model True --convert_model_dtype, 5B: --offload_model True --convert_model_dtype --t5_cpu

(--convert_model_dtype converts model parameter types to config.param_dtype);

(2) The distributed testing utilizes the built-in FSDP and Ulysses implementations, with FlashAttention3 deployed on Hopper architecture GPUs; (3) Tests were run without the --use_prompt_extend flag; (4) Reported results are the average of multiple samples taken after the warm-up phase.

Introduction of Wan2.2#

Wan2.2 builds on the foundation of Wan2.1 with notable improvements in generation quality and model capability. This upgrade is driven by a series of key technical innovations, mainly including the Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture, upgraded training data, and high-compression video generation.

(1) Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) Architecture#

Wan2.2 introduces Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture into the video generation diffusion model. MoE has been widely validated in large language models as an efficient approach to increase total model parameters while keeping inference cost nearly unchanged. In Wan2.2, the A14B model series adopts a two-expert design tailored to the denoising process of diffusion models: a high-noise expert for the early stages, focusing on overall layout; and a low-noise expert for the later stages, refining video details. Each expert model has about 14B parameters, resulting in a total of 27B parameters but only 14B active parameters per step, keeping inference computation and GPU memory nearly unchanged.

Image: image

The transition point between the two experts is determined by the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), a metric that decreases monotonically as the denoising step $t$ increases. At the beginning of the denoising process, $t$ is large and the noise level is high, so the SNR is at its minimum, denoted as ${SNR}{min}$. In this stage, the high-noise expert is activated. We define a threshold step ${t}{moe}$ corresponding to half of the ${SNR}{min}$, and switch to the low-noise expert when $t<{t}{moe}$.

Image: image

To validate the effectiveness of the MoE architecture, four settings are compared based on their validation loss curves. The baseline Wan2.1 model does not employ the MoE architecture. Among the MoE-based variants, the Wan2.1 & High-Noise Expert reuses the Wan2.1 model as the low-noise expert while uses the Wan2.2's high-noise expert, while the Wan2.1 & Low-Noise Expert uses Wan2.1 as the high-noise expert and employ the Wan2.2's low-noise expert. The Wan2.2 (MoE) (our final version) achieves the lowest validation loss, indicating that its generated video distribution is closest to ground-truth and exhibits superior convergence.

(2) Efficient High-Definition Hybrid TI2V#

To enable more efficient deployment, Wan2.2 also explores a high-compression design. In addition to the 27B MoE models, a 5B dense model, i.e., TI2V-5B, is released. It is supported by a high-compression Wan2.2-VAE, which achieves a $T\times H\times W$ compression ratio of $4\times16\times16$, increasing the overall compression rate to 64 while maintaining high-quality video reconstruction. With an additional patchification layer, the total compression ratio of TI2V-5B reaches $4\times32\times32$. Without specific optimization, TI2V-5B can generate a 5-second 720P video in under 9 minutes on a single consumer-grade GPU, ranking among the fastest 720P@24fps video generation models. This model also natively supports both text-to-video and image-to-video tasks within a single unified framework, covering both academic research and practical applications.

Comparisons to SOTAs#

We compared Wan2.2 with leading closed-source commercial models on our new Wan-Bench 2.0, evaluating performance across multiple crucial dimensions. The results demonstrate that Wan2.2 achieves superior performance compared to these leading models.
