ComfyUI Wan2.1-VACE-14B Image to Video Workflow Tutorial

1. Tutorial Introduction

Wan2.1-VACE-14B is an all-round video generation and editing unified model open sourced by the Alibaba Tongyi Wanxiang team on May 15, 2025. The model is based on the Tongyi Wanxiang V2.1 base training and is the industry's first video AI tool that supports flexible combination of multiple tasks. It can complete the full process from video generation to refined editing in one stop. It supports text to video, image to video, first and last frames to video, etc. The related paper results are "Wan: Open and Advanced Large-Scale Video Generative Models".

This tutorial uses a single A6000 card. It takes about 30 minutes to generate a video. We recommend using a higher computing power.

This workflow tutorial uses the following model files:

• wan2.1_vace_14B_fp16.safetensors
• wan_2.1_vae.safetensors
• umt5_xxl_fp8_e4m3fn_scaled.safetensors

2. Project Examples

3. Operation steps

1. After starting the container, click the API address to enter the Web interface

If "Bad Gateway" is displayed, it means the model is initializing. Since the model is large, please wait about 1-2 minutes and refresh the page.

2. Functional Demonstration

How to use

The first time you clone, you need to manually open the workflow in the folder and load it.
