🎬 Create on-model clothing clips from Drive photos with Sisif and Sheets

⚡ 0 views · 🎬 Content Creation & Video

Description

Quick overview

Drop a mannequin or flat-lay garment photo into a Google Drive folder and get a 5-second on-model motion clip from Sisif. The workflow animates the exact garment on a model and logs each result (video URL, status, source file) to Google Sheets.

How it works

  1. Triggers when a new file is created in a specified Google Drive folder.
  2. Filters out non-image files based on the Google Drive MIME type.
  3. Downloads the image from Google Drive and converts it to a base64 string for API upload.
  4. Sends the base64 image and an apparel prompt to Sisif to generate an on-model clip.
  5. Polls Sisif every 30 seconds for the video status until it is READY, ERROR/REFUNDED, or 40 checks are reached.
  6. Appends a row to Google Sheets with the file name, Drive file ID, Sisif video ID, status, video/poster URLs, error message, and timestamp (marking TIMEOUT if it never completes).

Setup

  1. Create a Sisif API key at https://sisif.ai/users/api-keys/ and add it to n8n as an HTTP Bearer Auth credential, then select it in the Sisif HTTP Request steps.
  2. Connect your Google Drive OAuth2 account and set the specific folder to watch in the Google Drive trigger.
  3. Connect your Google Sheets OAuth2 account and select the target spreadsheet and sheet in both Google Sheets append actions.
  4. Create the Google Sheet columns file_name, drive_file_id, sisif_video_id, status, video_url, poster_url, error_message, and processed_at to match the appended fields.
  5. Optionally edit the apparel prompt text to control the model, setting, and motion used by Sisif.
