Magi 1 24B

MAGI-1 is a video generation model with exceptional understanding of physical interactions and cinematic prompts

Features

magi-1-24b is a large-scale diffusion-based video generation model built to produce realistic, coherent videos from text prompts, supporting frame lengths up to 4 seconds at high resolution. Developed by Sand AI and released under an open license, it aims to democratize video synthesis with performance on par with or exceeding leading closed-source models.

Its training strategy blends masked video modeling, spatial-temporal consistency learning, and multimodal alignment, making it particularly strong at maintaining identity, structure, and scene logic across time.

Key Features

• Diffusion Video Generation: Built upon denoising diffusion probabilistic models, magi-1-24b generates videos by gradually refining a sequence of noise vectors into photorealistic motion. This method allows for exceptional control over motion dynamics and frame coherence.
• High-Quality, Temporally Consistent Motion: Unlike typical short-sequence models (e.g. 2s), magi-1-24b produces videos up to 64 frames (~4 seconds) while maintaining consistent character identity, background, and action flow.
• Strong Visual and Structural Fidelity: The model excels at rendering detailed scenes, capturing fine-grained textures, object interactions, and realistic human body poses.
• Multimodal Conditioning: magi-1-24b supports text-to-video (T2V) generation with alignment across spatial and temporal dimensions, making prompt-driven video creation more precise and reliable.
• Extensive Benchmark Testing: In public evaluations, magi-1-24b outperformed all tested open-source models across key metrics like FVD (Fréchet Video Distance), human preference, and identity consistency. See benchmark table below.

ComfyUI

magi-1-24b is also available on ComfyUI, providing local inference capabilities through a node-based workflow. This ensures flexible and efficient video generation on your system, catering to various creative workflows.

Limitations

• Fixed Video Duration：Currently supports videos up to 64 frames (~4 seconds). Longer video storytelling may require post-generation stitching or separate tools.
• Single-Prompt Focus：magi-1-24b is optimized for single-prompt outputs. Multi-shot or sequential storytelling requires creative prompt structuring.
• Still Under Open Development：While powerful, Magi-1 is still evolving. Advanced capabilities like consistent character re-use or camera movement controls are limited in this version.

Out-of-Scope Use

The model and its derivatives may not be used in any way that violates applicable national, federal, state, local, or international law or regulation, including but not limited to:

• Exploiting, harming, or attempting to exploit or harm minors, including solicitation, creation, acquisition, or dissemination of child exploitative content.
• Generating or disseminating verifiably false information with the intent to harm others.
• Creating or distributing personal identifiable information that could be used to harm an individual.
• Harassing, abusing, threatening, stalking, or bullying individuals or groups.
• Producing non-consensual nudity or illegal pornographic content.
• Making fully automated decisions that adversely affect an individual’s legal rights or create binding obligations.
• Facilitating large-scale disinformation campaigns.
