SCAIL 2 - Alternative 8 Directional Render Technique

For Sprute, we use Nano Banana Pro for 8-directional character generation. It works but we want an open source alternative.

Discussions:

• This seems to be a valid alternative to using Nano Banana Pro for generating 8-directional views.

• Alternative to using 3x3 driving video, we can probably get by with single character but have SCAIL 2 rotate the character 360 degree.

Next Steps:

• Codify this as a Comfy UI workflow

• Make it part of Sprute.

• Compare difference between using "previous frames" and not using one.

• Adjust the driving video character body proportion to match the character.

  • Thicker Arms

  • Thicker and shorter Legs

• Create overall batch pose workflow

• Make a performant rotate character and extractor.
