Stable Video Diffusion

Stable Video Diffusion is an AI model from Stability AI for generating short videos from text prompts and images, using diffusion-based generation.

What it does

You can turn a written prompt into an animated video sequence, or animate a still image using an image-to-video workflow.

Key capabilities

• Generate videos from text prompts
• Automatically create animated clips
• Adapt or process video with AI-based transformations
• Integrate with other Stability AI tools
• Support multiple formats and resolutions
• Edit existing videos by adding elements or changing style and mood

Access and setup

Stable Video Diffusion is available as a web experience and via Hugging Face. There is currently no standalone download for desktop or mobile. Typical usage includes:

• Create an account at stability.ai
• Enable access to the API or the interface
• Enter a detailed prompt (plot, style, mood, objects, actions)
• Run generation and export the result

You can usually adjust settings such as duration, resolution, and frame rate. Generation time depends on prompt complexity and compute resources, but is typically a few minutes.
