This ComfyUI workflow, titled 'AnimateDiff - IPAdapters Looping Animation,' is designed to create seamless animated transitions between a series of images. It leverages the power of Stable Diffusion 1.5 (SD1.5) along with custom nodes such as 'comfyui-animatediff-evolved' and 'comfyui_ipadapter_plus' to achieve fluid animations. The workflow uses a combination of nodes like 'VHS_VideoCombine' and 'ImageBatchMulti' to process multiple images in sequence, creating a looping animation effect. By utilizing Weighted IPAdapters, the workflow ensures that each image transition maintains a consistent style and theme, enhancing the overall visual coherence of the animation.
Technically, the workflow begins with loading images into the 'LoadImage' node, which are then scaled appropriately using the 'ImageScaleToTotalPixels' node. The 'ImageBatchMulti' node is crucial for handling multiple images, allowing them to be processed as a batch. The 'VHS_VideoCombine' node plays a pivotal role in merging these images into a continuous video loop. This setup is particularly useful for artists and content creators looking to produce engaging visual content that smoothly transitions between different scenes or concepts. The integration of the 'comfyui-videohelpersuite' further aids in refining the video output, ensuring high-quality animations.
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 "AnimateDiff - IPAdapters Looping Animation" (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("templates_purz_animatediff_simple_weighted_ipadapters_looping_animation_api.json");
const asset = client.assets.fromFile("input.png");
wf.setInput("61", "image", asset); // LoadImage
const job = await client.run(wf);
await job.getOutputs("76")[0].toFile("output.png"); // VHS_VideoCombineThe 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.
