The MiniMax H3 Capabilities That Change the Workflow

H3 connects multimodal direction, contextual 2K detail, temporal control, and native stereo sound inside one generation system.

Direct Relationships Across Every Reference

H3 does more than collect media inputs. Its Context-IR system interprets how text, images, reference video, and audio relate to the target shot, turning a mixed creative brief into structured direction the generator can follow.

  • Assign references to subjects, environments, motion, camera language, or sound
  • Combine up to 12 files: as many as 9 images, 3 videos, and 3 accompanied audio clips
  • Create with text, frames, or up to nine image references in H3Vid today

Keep the Original Context When Moving to 2K

H3 does not rely on a conventional super-resolution pass. It feeds the base result together with the original prompt and references back into the model, regenerating the shot at 2K with more informed visual detail.

  • Revisit the original creative context instead of blindly enlarging pixels
  • Recover faces, products, small text, and fine details with greater fidelity
  • Generate at 2K by default in the H3Vid workflow

Direct the Full Arc of a Shot

H3 supports text-only generation plus first-frame, last-frame, and first-and-last-frame control. Combine visual endpoints with a time-ordered prompt to define how action, camera movement, and composition should evolve.

  • Anchor the opening, the ending, or both ends of the generated sequence
  • Stage multiple actions, transitions, camera moves, and a deliberate final beat
  • Create 5, 10, or 15 second shots through H3Vid

Generate the Picture and Sound Together

H3 jointly predicts video and audio rather than attaching a separate soundtrack afterward. Dialogue, ambience, effects, and music can emerge with the action, timing, and spatial character of the scene already connected.

  • Output native 32 kHz stereo audio with the generated video
  • Coordinate speech, Foley, ambience, and music with visible events
  • Generate stable dialogue in 11 officially supported languages

Direct a MiniMax H3 Video in Four Steps

Build the shot around relationships and timing, then let H3 generate the audiovisual result as one piece.

01

Choose the Control Mode

Use text for a fresh scene, one frame for a fixed opening, two frames for a directed transition, or references for consistency.

02

Assign the Visual References

Upload the subject, product, setting, or style images you need and state what each one should control in the result.

03

Write the Shot in Time

Describe the action in order, including camera movement, dialogue, sound effects, ambience, and the intended final beat.

04

Set the Delivery Format

Choose a 5–15 second duration and a supported frame shape, generate at 2K, then review the full picture-and-sound result.

Where MiniMax H3 Fits a Real Production Brief

Use H3 when the moving image, identity, direction, and sound need to feel like parts of the same creative decision.

Product Campaigns

Turn product views and brand references into material reveals, launch teasers, and social advertising with coordinated sound.

Character Performances

Carry a recognizable subject into a directed action, expression, or spoken moment using multiple visual references.

Narrative Previsualization

Test blocking, camera paths, transitions, dialogue, and atmosphere before committing a concept to a full production.

Animated Design

Bring posters, title cards, illustrations, interface concepts, and campaign artwork into motion without losing the core art direction.

E-commerce Creative

Build short demonstrations and lifestyle moments from existing product imagery for storefronts, listings, and paid social.

World and Game Concepts

Explore environments, characters, cinematic entrances, and mood-rich action as compact audiovisual concept pieces.

MiniMax H3 Questions Before You Generate

Practical answers about the model, the inputs available on H3Vid, output settings, and generation cost.

1

What inputs can I use on H3Vid?

You can start from text, one opening image, a first-and-last-frame pair, or up to nine reference images. MiniMax documents broader video and audio reference capabilities, but those input types are not currently exposed here.

2

How long can a MiniMax H3 video be?

H3Vid currently offers 5, 10, or 15 second generations. MiniMax's broader H3 specification covers integer durations from 4 to 15 seconds.

3

Does MiniMax H3 generate sound?

Yes. H3 generates native stereo audio with the video, which can include dialogue, effects, ambience, and music when those elements are part of the direction.

4

Which aspect ratios are available?

H3Vid supports 21:9, 16:9, 4:3, 1:1, 3:4, and 9:16. Frame-based generation follows the dimensions of the uploaded source image.

5

How should I prompt MiniMax H3?

Write the shot in a clear sequence. Identify the subject and references, then describe action, camera movement, dialogue, effects, ambience, and how the clip should finish.

6

How many credits does a generation use?

The generator calculates the current credit cost from your selected mode, duration, and settings before you submit the task.

7

What happens if generation fails?

Credits are deducted when you submit. If the task fails, is canceled, or the finished file cannot be saved, the recorded cost is automatically refunded.
