LivePortrait Models (safetensors)

Mirror of the LivePortrait model weights, converted from .pth to safetensors format for safe, pickle-free loading. Hosted by Æmotion Studio for use with ComfyUI-FFMPEGA.

What is LivePortrait?

LivePortrait is an AI model for portrait animation — it transfers head pose, facial expressions, eye gaze, and lip movements from a driving video onto a source face image. It produces high-quality results in real-time.

Files

File	Size	Params	Description
`appearance_feature_extractor.safetensors`	3.2 MB	836K	Extracts 3D appearance features from face crops
`motion_extractor.safetensors`	107.3 MB	28.1M	Extracts keypoints, head pose, and expressions
`spade_generator.safetensors`	211.5 MB	55.4M	SPADE decoder — generates output face images
`warping_module.safetensors`	173.7 MB	45.5M	Warps appearance features via dense motion
`stitching_retargeting_module.safetensors`	0.9 MB	227K	Stitching + lip/eye retargeting networks
Total	496.6 MB	130M

⚠️ Conversion Note

Weights were converted from the official .pth checkpoints in KlingTeam/LivePortrait using:

python

from safetensors.torch import save_file
import torch

# For base models (direct state dict)
sd = torch.load("model.pth", map_location="cpu")
save_file(sd, "model.safetensors")

# For stitching module (nested sub-dicts → flat prefixed keys)
# retarget_shoulder → stitching.*
# retarget_mouth   → retarget_lip.*
# retarget_eye     → retarget_eye.*

The stitching/retargeting module uses flat prefixed keys in safetensors format. The module. DDP prefix is stripped from all keys.

Usage

These models are automatically downloaded by ComfyUI-FFMPEGA when the Animate Portrait skill is used. No manual setup required if allow_model_downloads is enabled.

Manual Installation

Download all .safetensors files from this repo
Place them in ComfyUI/models/liveportrait/

Why This Mirror?

Pickle-free: safetensors format eliminates arbitrary code execution risks
Supply chain resilience: first-party mirror ensures availability
Faster loading: safetensors loads faster than pickle-based .pth
