Step-Video-TI2V

Step-Video-TI2V is an advanced text-driven image-to-video generation model capable of producing videos up to 102 frames based on text descriptions and image inputs.

Features

1. Powerful Model Architecture

   • Parameter Scale: Step-Video-TI2V boasts 30 billion parameters, making it one of the largest open-source image-to-video (TI2V) models. This scale allows the model to capture complex visual and motion features, enabling the generation of high-quality video content.

2. High-Quality Video Generation

   • Frame Support: The model supports generating videos up to 102 frames, accommodating diverse content creation needs driven by both text descriptions and image inputs. This feature opens broad potential for creative video production.

3. Dynamic Control Capabilities

   • Motion Score Conditioning: Step-Video-TI2V introduces a motion scoring mechanism, allowing users to control the level of motion dynamics in the generated video. This feature helps balance motion fluidity and stability, reducing common artifacts.

4. New Benchmark Evaluation

   • Step-Video-TI2V-Eval: To measure model performance, the research team established a new benchmark dataset named Step-Video-TI2V-Eval. Compared with other open-source and commercial TI2V engines, Step-Video-TI2V demonstrated outstanding performance in image-to-video generation tasks.

5. Optimized Training Methods

   • Image & Motion Conditioning: The model leverages an image condition for the first frame and motion conditions to enhance generation quality. This approach ensures the produced videos are more visually coherent and natural.

6. Wide Applications

   • Anime-Style Generation: Step-Video-TI2V excels in anime-style video generation, enabling users to create personalized anime content tailored to their creative needs — a valuable feature for various production scenarios.
