Image to Video by ArtemisFowl2

Makes a short video from a written scene or from one of your photos by sending the request to its owner's video engines. Needs a free Hugging Face account and a like on the Space.

Made by ArtemisFowl2 on Hugging Face. These notes are Mindket's, written from its Space page and README; the app's own files and license are on Hugging Face.

About

What it is: This Space is a front end for video engines that run elsewhere. You choose one of two tabs and press Generate, and a finished video is returned. Text to Video turns a written scene into a clip of 5 or 10 seconds. Image to Video animates one of your photos into a 10-second clip, keeping the people and objects as in the photo. Use only photos you have the right to use.

Who it suits: Creators who want a quick short clip without a GPU, and developers who want to see a Gradio storefront that hands work to an outside service.

Industry | Who uses it | How they use it | Example
Marketing | Social media teams | Turn a product photo into a short moving clip | Animate a still of a shop front
Media | Video creators | Draft a scene from a written description | Try a 5-second clip in a vertical format
Small business | Shop owners | Make a simple clip from their own photos | Add motion to a photo of a dish
Software | Developers | See how a Space polls an outside service for a finished video | Read app.py to follow the flow

Skip it if you want to keep photos off outside services, since each request is sent to the owner's video engines.

Where to use it:

• A web browser, on the Space's page at Hugging Face
• A Hugging Face account, because sign-in is required

Use case | Who | What they get back
Text to Video | Creators | A clip of 5 or 10 seconds in the shape you choose
Image to Video | Creators and small businesses | A 10-second clip that keeps the photo's content and changes only the motion
Review past clips | Anyone | A history list with a download link for each video

How to set it up:

• A free Hugging Face account
• A like on this Space, using the heart button at the top of its page
• A photo up to 10 MB in JPG, PNG or WebP, for Image to Video
• A prompt up to 2000 characters, for Text to Video

1. Open the Space's page at Hugging Face.
2. Like the Space with the heart button. The app cannot do this for you.
3. Use the Sign in with Hugging Face button.
4. Pick a tab and fill in the form.

pip install -U huggingface_hub
hf download ArtemisFowl2/image-to-video --repo-type space --local-dir image-to-video
cd image-to-video
pip install gradio
pip install -r requirements.txt
python app.py

The commands above fetch the app files. A local copy also needs the owner's bridge key, kept as a secret, so the hosted Space is the practical way to use it.

How to use it: Choose Text to Video or Image to Video, fill in the form and press Generate. While the video is made, the page keeps checking on it. When it is done, the video appears on the page, is saved in History and can be downloaded.

Tool | What it does
Text to Video | Makes a 5 or 10 second clip from a written scene
Image to Video | Makes a 10-second clip from your photo and a motion description
History | Lists your past videos, newest first, with a download link

Example: You open Image to Video, upload a photo of a street cafe and describe a slow camera push forward. After a short wait, a 10-second clip appears with the same scene as your photo, and you can download it.

For newcomers and experts: If you are new, sign in, like the Space, and try Text to Video with one short scene. Check History if you refresh while a clip is still being made.

If you know the field, the Space does no rendering itself. It sends the request, with your Hugging Face username, to outside engines and keeps checking until the result is back. Image to Video is photo-locked, so only motion changes. The image engine takes at most 3 active Space requests at a time.

Good to know:

• License: apache-2
• Cost to run: the page calls it free and asks for a free Hugging Face account, with no GPU quota used
• Data it reaches: your prompt, your photo and your Hugging Face username go to outside video engines, and History is stored in your own browser
• Not for: photos over 10 MB, prompts over 2000 characters, or photos you have no right to use
