CogVideoX
CogVideoX is a text-to-video generation model focused on creating more coherent videos aligned with a prompt. It achieves this using several methods.
a 3D variational autoencoder that compresses videos spatially and temporally, improving compression rate and video accuracy.
an expert transformer block to help align text and video, and a 3D full attention module for capturing and creating spatially and temporally accurate videos.
Load model checkpoints
Model weights may be stored in separate subfolders on the Hub or locally, in which case, you should use the from_pretrained() method.
from diffusers import CogVideoXPipeline, CogVideoXImageToVideoPipeline
pipe = CogVideoXPipeline.from_pretrained(
"THUDM/CogVideoX-2b",
torch_dtype=torch.float16
)
pipe = CogVideoXImageToVideoPipeline.from_pretrained(

Text-to-Video
For text-to-video, pass a text prompt. By default, CogVideoX generates a 720x480 video for the best results.

from diffusers.utils import export_to_video
prompt = "An elderly gentleman, with a serene expression, sits at the water's edge, a steaming cup of tea by his side. He is engrossed in his artwork, brush in hand, as he renders an oil painting on a canvas that's propped up against a small, weathered table. The sea breeze whispers through his silver hair, gently billowing his loose-fitting white shirt, while the salty air adds an intangible element to his masterpiece in progress. The scene is one of tranquility and inspiration, with the artist's canvas capturing the vibrant hues of the setting sun reflecting off the tranquil sea."

Image-to-Video
You’ll use the THUDM/CogVideoX-5b-I2V checkpoint for this guide.

from diffusers import CogVideoXImageToVideoPipeline
from diffusers.utils import export_to_video, load_image
prompt = "A vast, shimmering ocean flows gracefully under a twilight sky, its waves undulating in a mesmerizing dance of blues and greens. The surface glints with the last rays of the setting sun, casting golden highlights that ripple across the water. Seagulls soar above, their cries blending with the gentle roar of the waves. The horizon stretches infinitely, where the ocean meets the sky in a seamless blend of hues. Close-ups reveal the intricate patterns of the waves, capturing the fluidity and dynamic beauty of the sea in motion."
