Wan 2.1 I2V LoRA — Character Consistency Training

Professional training script for Wan 2.1 I2V LoRA that actually works for character consistency in video generation.

🔑 Why This Works (vs wavespeed.ai)

Feature	wavespeed.ai	This Script
Data format	Images (zip)	Video clips
Rank	Max 64	128-512
I2V layers	Unknown	add_k_proj, add_v_proj (image cross-attention)
Training type	T2I-style on images	True I2V on video
Temporal consistency	❌ None	✅ Learned from video

TRAINING_GUIDE.md — Detailed setup instructions

🎯 Quick Start

1. Prepare Dataset

bash

mkdir dataset
cp your_videos/*.mp4 dataset/
# Create captions.txt with format: video_name|SKSCHAR your prompt here
cat > dataset/captions.txt << 'EOF'
video_0|SKSCHAR woman walking in park
video_1|SKSCHAR woman talking to camera
EOF

2. Run Training (14B model)

bash

# Requires A100 80GB / L40S / H100 (48GB+ VRAM)
# ~$2-3/hour on RunPod/Vast.ai/Lambda Labs

pip install torch transformers diffusers accelerate peft

3. Inference

python

from diffusers import WanImageToVideoPipeline, AutoencoderKLWan
from transformers import CLIPVisionModel
import torch

model_id = "Wan-AI/Wan2.1-I2V-14B-480P-Diffusers"
pipe = WanImageToVideoPipeline.from_pretrained(
    model_id,
    vae=AutoencoderKLWan.from_pretrained(model_id, subfolder="vae", torch_dtype=torch.float32),
    image_encoder=CLIPVisionModel.from_pretrained(model_id, subfolder="image_encoder", torch_dtype=torch.float32),
    torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
)
pipe.to("cuda")

pipe.load_lora_weights("./output/final", adapter_name="char")
pipe.set_adapters(["char"], [0.8])

from diffusers.utils import load_image
image = load_image("reference.jpg")

output = pipe(
    image=image,
    prompt="SKSCHAR woman dancing gracefully",
    height=480, width=832,
    num_frames=81,
    guidance_scale=5.0,
    num_inference_steps=25,
).frames[0]

from diffusers.utils import export_to_video
export_to_video(output, "result.mp4", fps=16)

📊 Demo Dataset

Ready-to-use test dataset: Useravailablepls/wan-i2v-lora-demo-videos

bash

python3 -c "
import requests, os
os.makedirs('demo_dataset', exist_ok=True)
base = 'https://huggingface.co/datasets/Useravailablepls/wan-i2v-lora-demo-videos/resolve/main/'
for f in ['video_0.mp4', 'video_1.mp4', 'captions.txt']:
    r = requests.get(base + f)
    open(f'demo_dataset/{f}', 'wb').write(r.content)
    print(f'Downloaded {f}')

🔧 Key Parameters

Parameter	Recommended	Why
`rank`	128-256 (14B), 64 (1.3B)	Higher = better consistency
`lora_alpha`	= rank	Standard practice
`lr`	1e-4	Constant schedule
`max_steps`	500-1000	More = overfitting
`grad_accum`	4-8	Effective batch size
`num_frames`	81	(81-1)/4+1 = 21 latent frames
