Alright, buckle up buttercups, because we're about to dive headfirst into the wacky world of Wan 2.1 Video Restyle! Think of it as giving your video a makeover, but instead of a bad perm, it's a super stylish transformation!
Wan 2.1 Video Restyle: The "Stylize Me Captain!" Edition
This nifty trick lets you take a regular ol' video and slap on the artistic vibe of a pimped-out first frame. Forget slaving away frame by frame, or just mumbling magic words (text prompts) – this workflow takes the look of that first frame and spreads it like peanut butter on the whole video!
Specifically built for the super-powered Wan 2.1 models, this method is your shortcut to awesome animations, cinematic clips that pop, and artistic makeovers that keep your video looking consistently fabulous.
So, How Do We Unleash This Magic?
It's easier than teaching a cat to play the piano (okay, maybe not THAT easy, but close!).

-
The Steps (So Simple, Even Your Grandma Could Do It!):
- Shove your original video and its super-stylish first frame into the machine.

- Tweak a knob or two (duration, resolution – if you're feeling fancy).
- BAM! Your stylized video lands in your ComfyUI "Outputs" folder, ready to wow the world.
Step 1: Video & First Frame – The Dynamic Duo!
Wan 2.1 Restyled First Frame: Lights, Camera, Action (But First, Upload!)
To kick things off, you need two key players:
- The Video: Your source material. Keep it under 1K resolution for best results, or Wan 2.1 might give you the stink eye.
- The Restyled First Frame: The star of the show! Snag that first frame and give it a makeover using tools like Stable Diffusion or ComfyUI. This becomes the holy grail for the rest of the video.
Wan 2.1 Restyled First Frame: Resize Your Ride!
Make sure that video plays nice with Wan 2.1. A little resizing might be in order!
Step 2: The Positive Prompt – The Secret Sauce!
