MINIMAX · OMNIMODAL VIDEO MODELMiniMax H3 turns text, images, video, and audio context into coherent AI videos with native stereo sound. Build 4–15 second shots, guide the first and last frame, assemble multimodal references, choose the delivery ratio, and carry one audiovisual idea from prompt to finished sequence.
One multimodal brief for visual continuity, performance, dialogue, ambience, and sound
MiniMax H3 is an omni-modal generative video system that understands text, images, video, and audio, then produces video with native stereo sound. Use text-to-video for prompt-led shots, image-to-video with a required opening frame and optional ending frame, or reference-to-video for larger multimodal reference packages.
For creators, the practical change is a shared audiovisual brief. Character identity, shot composition, reference motion, spoken dialogue, ambience, and music direction can be planned as parts of the same 4–15 second sequence instead of separate disconnected tasks.
Use image-to-video when the opening composition matters and add an optional ending frame when the final composition must be controlled. Use reference-to-video when identity, motion, or sound must travel across assets, then choose 768P or 2K for the intended delivery.
Landscape, square, and portrait ratios cover cinematic frames, product pages, feeds, and vertical social. The output is 24 fps video with native 32 kHz stereo audio, ready for an editing timeline.
The useful difference is not one headline metric. It is the way duration, frames, references, aspect ratio, sound, and language control fit one production brief.
Choose a clip length from 4 to 15 seconds to match a social hook, product reveal, dialogue exchange, performance beat, or connecting shot without forcing every idea into one fixed duration.
Reference-led generation can work with up to nine images, three video clips, and three audio clips within the documented duration and file limits, with as many as twelve mixed files in one package.
Image-to-video uses a required opening frame and an optional ending frame. This gives the shot a fixed visual starting point and, when needed, a deliberate final composition.
Create wide 21:9 and 16:9 frames, classic 4:3, square 1:1, portrait 3:4, or vertical 9:16 output so composition starts with the real delivery surface.
Dialogue, ambience, effects, and music can be generated with the picture as 32 kHz stereo audio. Describe when each sound begins, where it sits, and how it supports visible action.
Eleven stable dialogue languages cover Arabic, Chinese, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish for international audiovisual work.
A strong MiniMax H3 brief makes every input accountable: stills hold identity and design, video demonstrates movement, audio sets performance and rhythm, and the prompt connects them over time.
Use product stills to preserve silhouette and materials, a short motion clip to guide the reveal, and timed sound cues for tactile details and the final brand beat.
Anchor face, wardrobe, and environment with images, define spoken lines and room tone, then direct eye line, reaction timing, camera distance, and the ending frame.
Let reference footage control body rhythm while still images define the final subject and styling. Add music intent, vertical framing, and a readable final hold for the platform.
Start with the delivery format, choose the correct H3 input pattern, assign each reference one job, and direct visuals and audio on the same timeline.
Choose 4–15 seconds and the real output ratio first. State the opening action, the turning point, and what the viewer should see and hear in the final second.
Use text or first/last frames for composition-driven shots. Use multimodal references when identity, demonstrated motion, speaking style, or sound direction must be carried from source assets.
Label one image for identity, another for environment, a video for movement only, and audio for voice or tempo. Remove conflicting assets and stay inside the documented file and duration limits.
Check identity, contact physics, camera motivation, lip timing, dialogue clarity, ambience, music balance, and the final frame before downloading the 768P or 2K result for further editing.
H3 expands the MiniMax video workflow from conventional text/image generation toward omni-modal references and native audiovisual output.
| Workflow | MiniMax H3 | Hailuo 2.3 | Creative impact |
|---|---|---|---|
| Clip duration | 4–15 seconds | 6 or 10 seconds by configuration | H3 provides a wider timing range for short narrative and commercial beats. |
| Input structure | Text, first/last frames, image, video, and audio references | Text-to-video and image-to-video | H3 can express identity, motion, performance, and sound through separate inputs. |
| Audio output | Native 32 kHz stereo audio | Video generation workflow | Picture and sound can be directed and evaluated as one generated sequence in H3. |
| Resolution path | Direct 768P or 2K output | 768p or 1080p configurations | Choose the output resolution as part of the MiniMax H3 generation request. |
Choose the workflow by input needs and delivery requirements: H3 for multimodal audiovisual direction; Hailuo 2.3 for established text-to-video and image-to-video configurations.
A useful prompt describes the visible sequence, reference responsibilities, camera behavior, spoken performance, ambience, effects, music, and the final frame.
State duration, aspect ratio, platform, audience, and shot purpose before style language.
Say exactly which image controls identity, which video controls motion, and which audio controls voice or rhythm.
Break 4–15 seconds into a beginning, development, and final hold with observable subject actions.
Specify framing, lens feel, movement, speed, and the reveal that gives the movement a reason.
Separate dialogue, room tone, effects, and music; give each a start, intensity, and relationship to the picture.
List the identity, product geometry, wardrobe, lighting direction, text, and final-frame details that must not drift.
Every instruction can be checked in the image or soundtrack, making revision more precise.
DELIVERABLE 12-second 16:9 premium product film with native stereo audio. REFERENCE ROLES @Image 1 controls bottle geometry and label-safe front view. @Video 1 controls the slow hand movement only. @Audio 1 controls the speaking tone, not the words. TIMELINE 0–4s — 85mm macro slide across condensation; soft room tone and one glass detail sound. 4–9s — pull back as a hand rotates the bottle 30 degrees; calm voice says: ‘Clarity, held in motion.’ 9–12s — locked hero frame, amber rim light, short musical resolve, one second of clean visual hold. INVARIANTS Keep bottle proportions, cap height, label area, camera axis, and light direction unchanged. No subtitles, extra objects, or unrelated music.
H3 is most useful where a short video needs controlled identity, demonstrated motion, audible performance, or a deliberate first-to-last-frame arc.
Build a compact hook, demonstration, voice line, tactile sound, and final product frame in one 4–15 second asset.
Use product references to preserve shape and materials across macro detail, handling motion, contextual use, and a clean final hold.
