We have developed animal expression-driven nodes for ComfyUI that have the same effect as the source code. ## Introduction This repo, named ComfyUI-LivePortrait_v2, thanks to paper LivePortrait: Efficient Portrait Animation with Stitching and Retargeting Control. We developed a custom_node for Liveportrait_v2 that enables flexible use on Comfyui to drive animal image-based emoji generation from videos. ## Getting Started ### Clone the code and prepare the environment ```bash git clone https://github.com/VangengLab/ComfyUI-LivePortrait_v2.git cd ComfyUI-LivePortrait_v2 ``` In this node, we need dependencies related to XPose. Specifically, it needs to be configured and prepared according to the instructions on https://github.com/KwaiVGI/LivePortrait. The cuda version is preferably 12.1. or you can refer to my environment on https://github.com/VangengLab/Comfyui_Liveportrait_v3/edit/main/README.md ## Download pretrained weights refer to https://github.com/VangengLab/Comfyui_Liveportrait_v3/edit/main/README.md this repo will tell you all details about pretrained weights ## !!!Important reminder Since the node we developed is relatively simple and we hope that users can get started quickly, we did not open a video upload window. We need to put the expression video (of a person) that needs to be driven into ComfyUI-LivePortrait_v2/assets/examples/driving and enter its name in the node. According to the example in the figure, it can be completed. ![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/0711de7e-2336-4eaf-b8d1-7a66a6fa093b)
