ComfyUI Extension: FizzNodes

FizzNodes Introduction

ComfyUI_FizzNodes is an extension designed to enhance your animation projects within the ComfyUI framework. It provides a set of nodes that allow you to schedule prompts, float/int values, and wave functions, making it easier to create complex animations and utility functions. This extension is particularly useful for AI artists looking to synchronize animations with audio or other time-based events, offering compatibility with tools like FrameSync and the Keyframe String Generator.

How FizzNodes Works

At its core, ComfyUI_FizzNodes operates by allowing you to schedule changes in prompts and values over time. Think of it as a timeline where you can set specific actions to occur at designated points. For example, you can schedule a prompt to change every few seconds or adjust the intensity of an effect gradually over time. This is achieved through nodes that you can place and configure within the ComfyUI interface.

Imagine you are creating an animation where a character's expression changes in sync with a piece of music. You can use ComfyUI_FizzNodes to schedule these changes precisely, ensuring that the animation matches the audio perfectly.

FizzNodes Features

Scheduled Prompts

This feature allows you to change the text prompts at specific times during your animation. You can create a sequence of prompts that change dynamically, adding more depth and variation to your animations.

Scheduled Float/Int Values

With this feature, you can schedule numerical values to change over time. This is useful for animating properties like opacity, scale, or any other numerical attribute that can be animated.

Wave Function Nodes

Wave function nodes enable you to create oscillating effects, such as sine waves, square waves, and more. These can be used to create rhythmic animations or to add a natural, flowing motion to your projects.

Audio Sync Compatibility

ComfyUI_FizzNodes is compatible with FrameSync and the Keyframe String Generator, allowing you to synchronize your animations with audio. This is particularly useful for creating music videos or any project where timing is crucial.

FizzNodes Models

Currently, ComfyUI_FizzNodes does not include different models but focuses on providing versatile nodes that can be used in various ways to achieve the desired effects in your animations.
