The 'Luma: Image to Video' workflow in ComfyUI is designed to transform static images into dynamic, high-quality animations effortlessly. This workflow leverages the power of the LumaImageToVideoNode, which is specifically tailored to convert images into video format by applying advanced image processing techniques. It utilizes the Luma model, renowned for its ability to maintain image fidelity and create seamless transitions, ensuring that the resulting animations are both visually appealing and smooth.
Technically, the workflow begins with the LoadImage node, which imports the static image you wish to animate. The LumaConceptsNode can be used to apply specific animation concepts or themes to your video, enhancing the creative possibilities. Once the image is processed through the LumaImageToVideoNode, the SaveVideo node ensures that the output is stored in a usable format. This workflow is particularly useful for creators looking to add motion to digital art, enhance social media content, or create engaging marketing materials without extensive video editing skills.
API
Use this workflow from code
Every Comfy workflow is a JSON graph. The payload below is this workflow, exactly as ComfyUI runs it — fetch it from the URL, keep it in version control, or load it in ComfyUI and run it node by node.
Run it from TypeScript or Python with the Comfy SDK. The same code targets Comfy Cloud or a ComfyUI you host yourself — only the base URL changes.
// Install (beta)
npm i @comfyorg/sdk
// Run "Luma: Image to Video" (TypeScript)
import { Comfy } from "@comfyorg/sdk";
const client = new Comfy({ apiKey: "comfyui-..." });
// This workflow, exported in API format (see note below)
const wf = await client.workflows.fromFile("api_luma_i2v_api.json");
const asset = client.assets.fromFile("input.png");
wf.setInput("9", "image", asset); // LoadImage
const job = await client.run(wf);
await job.getOutputs("8")[0].toFile("output.png"); // SaveVideoThe SDK takes a workflow in API format: open this workflow in ComfyUI and use File → Export Workflow (API).
Comfy Cloud API access requires a plan with an API key.
