Generating high-fidelity visual effects (VFX) typically demands massive datasets and prohibitive computational power due to the intricate coupling of spatial textures and temporal dynamics. In this paper, we introduce EasyVFX, a resource-efficient framework that achieves realistic VFX synthesis under stringent constraints. Our core philosophy lies in frequency-domain decomposition: we observe that the complexity of VFX can be significantly mitigated by decoupling high-frequency components, which represent intricate spatial appearances, from low-frequency components that encapsulate global motion dynamics. This spectral disentanglement transforms a high-dimensional learning problem into manageable sub-tasks, thereby lowering the optimization barrier and reducing data dependency. Building upon this insight, we propose a two-stage training paradigm. First, we design a Frequency-aware Mixture-of-Experts (Freq-MoE) architecture. By utilizing a soft routing mechanism, our model assigns specialized experts to distinct spectral bands, enabling them to cultivate robust priors for appearance and motion dynamics. This specialization allows the model to acquire foundational VFX knowledge with fewer GPU resources. Second, we introduce a Test-Time Training strategy powered by a novel Frequency-constraint Loss. This allows the pre-trained model to swiftly adapt to specific, unseen effects through localized optimizations, requiring only about 100 steps on a single GPU. Experimental results demonstrate that EasyVFX produces structurally consistent and visually stunning effects, proving that frequency-aware learning is a key catalyst for democratizing professional-grade VFX.
High-resolution video generation faces a coupled bottleneck of optimization instability and prohibitive computational costs. The massive expansion of the token sequence not only biases optimization toward local textures at the expense of global coherence, leading to structural collapse, but also imposes prohibitive training costs and severe inference latency. To address this, we propose PixelWizard, a framework that hierarchically decouples global structure modeling from fine-grained detail synthesis. PixelWizard first establishes a compact spatiotemporal anchor to concentrate dense structural priors, which then guides fine-grained generation at high resolution. This mitigates the local optimization bias to ensure structural stability without compromising high-frequency details. Leveraging this structural stability, we introduce Noise-Span Aligned Shortcut Training to break the inference bottleneck. By explicitly modeling the step size, this mechanism allows the model to traverse the generation trajectory with large steps. Crucially, we incorporate Exponential Index-Biased Sampling and Adaptive Noise-Span Calibration to align optimization with the shifted noise schedules of high-resolution grids, ensuring robust few-step inference without incurring the heavy overhead of distillation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that PixelWizard achieves superior visual quality while accelerating the generative sampling of native 2K/4K videos by over 10x.
Diffusion models have been shown to implicitly generate visual content autoregressively in the frequency domain, where low-frequency components are generated earlier in the denoising process while high-frequency details emerge only in later timesteps. This structure offers a natural opportunity for efficient generation, as high-resolution computation on noise-dominated frequencies is largely redundant. We propose Spectral Progressive Diffusion, a general framework that progressively grows resolution along the denoising trajectory of pretrained diffusion models. To this end, we develop a spectral noise expansion mechanism and derive an optimal resolution schedule from the model's power spectrum. Our framework supports training-free acceleration and a novel fine-tuning recipe that further improves efficiency and quality. We demonstrate significant speedups on state-of-the-art pretrained image and video generation models while preserving visual quality.
Video Diffusion Models (VDMs) have demonstrated superior generation quality but suffer from prohibitive computational costs. While recent few-step distillation techniques significantly accelerate inference, they typically enforce a static model architecture across all denoising stages, ignoring the varying computational demands inherent to different noise levels. In this work, we propose a novel post-training acceleration framework that exploits this redundancy by integrating dynamic structural sparsification directly into the distillation process. Unlike conventional post-hoc compression applied to a fixed diffusion pipeline, our approach jointly optimizes the denoising steps and structured model sparsity, transforming a pre-trained VDM into a compact, step-specific Mixture-of-Models (MoM). To address the training instability arising from this joint optimization, we introduce a Progressive Training Strategy coupled with an Output Rollout Mechanism, which ensures the coherent learning of structural decisions across timesteps. Furthermore, we develop a specialized inference engine to deploy the resulting MoM efficiently. Our method is orthogonal to existing acceleration techniques and highly effective: On Wan-14B, it removes 24% of the per-step FLOPs on top of 4-step distillation, adding a 1.2x wall-clock gain and reaching a 30x speedup over the 50-step teacher while preserving competitive generation quality.
