Generation modes
Each mode solves a different creative problem. Start with the lightest input that provides enough direction.
| Mode | Input | Creative control | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Text to video | Prompt | Open composition and motion | Ideation and new scenes |
| Image to video | Image + prompt | Art direction and starting frame | Animating existing visuals |
| First & last frame | Start + end images | Transition and destination frame | Directed transformations |
| Subject reference | Image, video or audio references | Identity, movement and sound guidance | Consistent subjects and motion |
How it works
01
Describe the subject, action, camera, environment, lighting and audio without conflicting direction.
02
Add an image, frames or reference assets only when the scene needs tighter control.
03
Inspect motion and identity, save the settings, then change one variable before trying again.
Reproducible workflows
Every published example will record its prompt, inputs, duration, cost, queue time, attempts and known limits.
Measure shape, material, text and logo stability across repeatable product scenes.
Compare identity, clothing, action and framing over several reference-led generations.
Evaluate whether dialogue, ambience and sound timing make an output more usable.

Higher-volume generation for active production workflows.
FAQ
Straight answers about the model, inputs, output and this independent service.
MiniMax H3 is a multimodal AI video model that can create and direct short-form video from text and reference inputs.
The generator interface is live for preview. Real task submission will open after API cost, failure and storage handling complete launch validation.
H3 includes 2K workflows where supported. Available duration, ratio and quality combinations will be shown in the generator.
The planned workflow supports text, images, first and last frames, plus reference image, video and audio where the API permits them.
H3 supports native audio workflows. Results still need review for timing, intelligibility and production suitability.
Commercial use depends on current model and service terms and on your rights to uploaded assets. Review those terms before publishing.
The generator will show estimated credits before submission. Launch pricing will be finalized after real API success-rate and cost testing.
No. This is an independent service and is not affiliated with or endorsed by MiniMax.
