MiniMax H3 Features
Native 2K Video in One Pass
Generate native 2560×1440 at 24fps without separate upscaling. Fine details like text, logos, and fabric weave stay crisp. No smudging, no detail recovery needed.
Synchronized Stereo Audio Built-In
Dialogue, effects, and ambient sound are generated alongside video in one pass, timed to the on-screen action. No separate audio stage or post-sync needed.
Omni-Reference Control
Guide identity, motion, framing, style, and voice using up to 12 reference files (9 images, 3 videos, 3 audio). Point, borrow, and match all in one generation.
Instruction-Based Editing
Describe the change in plain language—"swap the jacket to red," "rewrite the dialogue"—and H3 regenerates only what you asked for. No masks, no keyframes.
Character Consistency Across Cuts
Keep the same character coherent from establishing shot to close-up. Face, styling, motion, and voice all persist across multi-shot sequences.
Every Aspect Ratio, Every Duration
6 aspect ratios (21:9 to 9:16), 6 durations (4–15 seconds), 2 resolutions (768p draft or 2K). One prompt becomes dozens of platform-ready variants.
Real-World Use Cases
E-commerce & Product Marketing
Turn a single product photo into a 360° showcase or feature explainer. Native 2K keeps detail sharp on close-ups where cheaper models blur.
Social Media & Content Creators
Make scroll-stopping vertical clips for TikTok, Reels, Shorts. Dialogue and effects included—nothing needs a separate edit.
Advertising & Brand Teams
Produce campaign variants at scale. Accurate text rendering keeps logos crisp. One asset set feeds 21:9, 16:9, 1:1, and 9:16.
Filmmakers & Previz
Block a shot as a first frame, describe the camera move, and preview before you shoot. 24fps cuts straight into your timeline.
Designers & Motion Artists
Animate posters, title cards, UI mockups with style from your own reference art. Bring static design to life with directed motion.
Educators & Explainer Producers
Build clear, narrated explainers. Native audio carries voiceover timed to visuals automatically. Accurate text keeps labels crisp.

What Creators Say
"Cut fifteen platform variants of one campaign in an afternoon. The 2K text rendering kept our logo crisp where competitors smeared it."
Maya R.
Performance Marketing Lead
"Held my main character's face and voice across a six-shot trailer. Concept board to finished PV in a morning instead of a week."
Devon K.
Indie Game Developer
"Turned a single product photo into a 360 showcase with narration for about two dollars. Plain-language editing beat every tutorial I'd bounced off."
Priya S.
E-commerce Store Owner
"First-and-last-frame control let me previz a crane move before the shoot. Far better than rough animatics, and the 24fps dropped straight into my timeline."
