spent close to $2k on Seedance last month, mostly for simple ad b-roll and looping backgrounds for websites. it's great for the big hero shots but paying per clip for the basic stuff makes no sense anymore, so I'm switching as much as I can to running models locally. my PC: RTX 3080 10GB, windows 11, 64GB RAM. short clips only (5-8 sec), 720p is plenty, mostly image to video from a start frame. two questions for anyone running this locally: what's the best image model right now? what's the best video model that actually runs on 10GB, and how long does a clip take you in real life? bonus points for a leaderboard or arena site you trust for open models. I'll share what I pick and my real 3080 timings once I've tested, so the next person doesn't have to guess.   submitted by   /u/CoderLuii [link]   [comments]
