Installing the Custom Node
Go to Manager, install custom nodes, search 'interpolation', and install the ComfyUI Frame Interpolation custom node.
[0:26]
Example Workflow Overview
A two-second video (60 frames) of waving passes through control nets, textual prompts, and Animate Diff to create a short video.

Adding Frame Interpolation Node
Add Node > ComfyUI Frame Interpolation > VFI > Film VFI. Connect to frames and video combine node.
[1:07]
Settings for Smooth Output
Use multiplier of 2 to double frames, set FPS to 60, create preview node, set to H264 for quality.
[1:30]
Result and Comparison
After 40 seconds, 119 frames created (~60 FPS). Side-by-side shows smoother animation compared to original 30 FPS.
[1:56]
Other Interpolation Methods
Multiple methods available; testing showed similar results to Film VFI.
