Open-Sora: Democratizing Efficient Video Production for All

We design and implement Open-Sora, an initiative dedicated to efficiently producing high-quality video. We hope to make the model, tools and all details accessible to all. By embracing open-source principles, Open-Sora not only democratizes access to advanced video generation techniques, but also offers a streamlined and user-friendly platform that simplifies the complexities of video generation. With Open-Sora, our goal is to foster innovation, creativity, and inclusivity within the field of content creation.

• Step by step to train or finetune your own model
• Step by step to train and evaluate an video autoencoder
• Visit the high compression video autoencoder
• Reports of previous version (better see in according branch):
  • Open-Sora 1.3: shift-window attention, unified spatial-temporal VAE, etc.
  • Open-Sora 1.2, Tech Report: rectified flow, 3d-VAE, score condition, evaluation, etc.

📍 Since Open-Sora is under active development, we remain different branchs for different versions. The latest version is main. Old versions include: v1.0, v1.1, v1.2, v1.3.

Quickstart

Installation

# create a virtual env and activate (conda as an example)
conda create -n opensora python=3.10
conda activate opensora

# download the repo
git clone https://github.com/hpcaitech/Open-Sora
cd Open-Sora

# Ensure torch >= 2.4.0
pip install -v . # for development mode, `pip install -v -e .`
pip install xformers==0.0.27.post2 --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu121 # install xformers according to your cuda version
pip install flash-attn --no-build-isolation

Optionally, you can install flash attention 3 for faster speed.

git clone https://github.com/Dao-AILab/flash-attention # 4f0640d5
cd flash-attention/hopper
python setup.py install

Text-to-Video Generation

Our model is optimized for image-to-video generation, but it can also be used for text-to-video generation. To generate high quality videos, with the help of flux text-to-image model, we build a text-to-image-to-video pipeline. For 256x256 resolution:

# Generate one given prompt
torchrun --nproc_per_node 1 --standalone scripts/diffusion/inference.py configs/diffusion/inference/t2i2v_256px.py --save-dir samples --prompt "raining, sea"

# Generation with csv
torchrun --nproc_per_node 1 --standalone scripts/diffusion/inference.py configs/diffusion/inference/t2i2v_256px.py --save-dir samples --dataset.data-path assets/texts/example.csv

For 768x768 resolution:

# One GPU
torchrun --nproc_per_node 1 --standalone scripts/diffusion/inference.py configs/diffusion/inference/t2i2v_768px.py --save-dir samples --prompt "raining, sea"

# Multi-GPU with colossalai sp
torchrun --nproc_per_node 8 --standalone scripts/diffusion/inference.py configs/diffusion/inference/t2i2v_768px.py --save-dir samples --prompt "raining, sea"

You can adjust the generation aspect ratio by --aspect_ratio and the generation length by --num_frames. Candidate values for aspect_ratio includes 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 2.39:1. Candidate values for num_frames should be 4k+1 and less than 129.

You can also run direct text-to-video by:

# One GPU for 256px
torchrun --nproc_per_node 1 --standalone scripts/diffusion/inference.py configs/diffusion/inference/256px.py --prompt "raining, sea"
# Multi-GPU for 768px
torchrun --nproc_per_node 8 --standalone scripts/diffusion/inference.py configs/diffusion/inference/768px.py --prompt "raining, sea"

Image-to-Video Generation

Given a prompt and a reference image, you can generate a video with the following command:

# 256px
torchrun --nproc_per_node 1 --standalone scripts/diffusion/inference.py configs/diffusion/inference/256px.py --cond_type i2v_head --prompt "A plump pig wallows in a muddy pond on a rustic farm, its pink snout poking out as it snorts contentedly. The camera captures the pig's playful splashes, sending ripples through the water under the midday sun. Wooden fences and a red barn stand in the background, framed by rolling green hills. The pig's muddy coat glistens in the sunlight, showcasing the simple pleasures of its carefree life." --ref assets/texts/i2v.png

# 256px with csv
torchrun --nproc_per_node 1 --standalone scripts/diffusion/inference.py configs/diffusion/inference/256px.py --cond_type i2v_head --dataset.data-path assets/texts/i2v.csv

# Multi-GPU 768px
torchrun --nproc_per_node 8 --standalone scripts/diffusion/inference.py configs/diffusion/inference/768px.py --cond_type i2v_head --dataset.data-path assets/texts/i2v.csv

Advanced Usage

Motion Score

During training, we provide motion score into the text prompt. During inference, you can use the following command to generate videos with motion score (the default score is 4):

torchrun --nproc_per_node 1 --standalone scripts/diffusion/inference.py configs/diffusion/inference/t2i2v_256px.py --save-dir samples --prompt "raining, sea" --motion-score 4

We also provide a dynamic motion score evaluator. After setting your OpenAI API key, you can use the following command to evaluate the motion score of a video:

torchrun --nproc_per_node 1 --standalone scripts/diffusion/inference.py configs/diffusion/inference/t2i2v_256px.py --save-dir samples --prompt "raining, sea" --motion-score dynamic

Prompt Refine

We take advantage of ChatGPT to refine the prompt. You can use the following command to refine the prompt. The function is available for both text-to-video and image-to-video generation.

export OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-xxxx
torchrun --nproc_per_node 1 --standalone scripts/diffusion/inference.py configs/diffusion/inference/t2i2v_256px.py --save-dir samples --prompt "raining, sea" --refine-prompt True

Reproductivity

To make the results reproducible, you can set the random seed by:

torchrun --nproc_per_node 1 --standalone scripts/diffusion/inference.py configs/diffusion/inference/t2i2v_256px.py --save-dir samples --prompt "raining, sea" --sampling_option.seed 42 --seed 42

Use --num-sample k to generate k samples for each prompt.

Computational Efficiency

We test the computational efficiency of text-to-video on H100/H800 GPU. For 256x256, we use colossalai's tensor parallelism. For 768x768, we use colossalai's sequence parallelism. All use number of steps 50. The results are presented in the format: $\color{blue}{\text{Total time (s)}}/\color{red}{\text{peak GPU memory (GB)}}$

Evaluation

On VBench, Open-Sora 2.0 significantly narrows the gap with OpenAI’s Sora, reducing it from 4.52% → 0.69% compared to Open-Sora 1.2.

Human preference results show our model is on par with HunyuanVideo 14B and Step-Video 30B.
