MiniMax H3 AI Video Generator
MiniMax H3 is an open-weights omni-modal video generation model that produces 2K resolution video with native stereo audio up to 15 seconds. H3 accepts text, image, video, and audio inputs simultaneously, enabling multimodal creative workflows including V2V motion transfer, accurate text rendering, and instruction-following generation across advertising, e-commerce, branding, and cinematic content.

MiniMax H3Key Features of MiniMax H3
Omni-Modal Input: Text, Image, Video, and Audio Together
H3 accepts multimodal context in a single generation pass. You can reference a motion style from one video, a character from an image, and a vocal track from an audio file — all described in natural language. H3 resolves the relationships between modalities and produces a coherent output without separate preprocessing steps.
Native 2K Resolution at Industry-Leading Price
H3 delivers 2K resolution by default. Per MiniMax's official pricing, H3's per-second cost at 2K is less than one-third of mainstream models, and at 768p it is less than half the price. This makes high-resolution production accessible for volume workflows including ads, e-commerce content, and social campaigns.
V2V Motion Transfer with Creative Reinterpretation
H3's video-to-video workflow goes beyond style transfer. Upload a reference video to extract its camera language, movement timing, and motion rhythm — then apply that motion logic to a different subject or scene. MiniMax highlights this as one of H3's benchmark-leading capabilities for ad production and creative iteration.
Accurate Text and Brand Rendering in Video
H3 is built for advertising and branding workflows that require legible on-screen text, logo placement, and product labeling. The model generates text overlays, captions, and branded elements with higher accuracy than previous Hailuo-series models, reducing the need for post-production correction.
Native Stereo Audio Generation
H3 generates stereo audio natively alongside video — covering dialogue, music, ambient sound, and effects in one pass. Audio is synchronized to the generated motion and timing rather than added as a separate layer, producing more coherent results for narrative content, music videos, and ad spots.
Up to 15 Seconds Per Generation
H3 supports single-shot generation up to 15 seconds, enabling complete narrative segments, product demos, and ad spots within a single output. This reduces the need for complex multi-clip stitching for short-form content.
Open-Weights Model for Custom Deployment
MiniMax plans to release H3's model weights publicly in the coming days. This makes H3 suitable for teams building custom fine-tuned versions, on-premise deployments, and hardware-optimized inference pipelines. Hardware compatibility has been a core design consideration since the earliest stages of H3's development.
How to Use MiniMax H3 on Seedance
Choose Your Input Type
Select text-to-video for prompt-only generation, or image-to-video to animate a source image. For multimodal workflows, use the reference input to attach video, audio, or additional images.
Write a Production-Ready Prompt
Describe the subject, scene, camera movement, style, audio character, and intended use case. For multimodal inputs, describe how each reference should influence the output — H3 resolves the relationships from natural language.
Generate, Review, and Refine
Generate your video and review for motion quality, text accuracy, audio sync, and brand alignment. Adjust your prompt or references and regenerate as needed before exporting.
What You Can Build With MiniMax H3
Advertising and Brand Campaigns
Generate product ads, spokesperson videos, and brand content with accurate text rendering and consistent visual identity. H3's multimodal input lets you reference existing brand assets directly.
E-commerce Product Videos
Create high-resolution product showcase videos from images. H3's stable object motion and 2K output make it suited for listing videos, unboxing content, and catalog production.
Social Media and Short-Form Content
Produce up to 15 seconds of polished video with native audio for TikTok, Reels, and YouTube Shorts. V2V motion transfer makes it fast to iterate on creative hooks and styles.
Gaming and UI/UX Visualization
MiniMax identifies gaming and UI/UX as target verticals. H3 can generate animated interface mockups, game cinematic concepts, and character motion previews from reference images and prompts.
Music Videos and Audio-Synced Content
Use audio as a direct input reference. H3 can sync motion, rhythm, and expression to an uploaded vocal or music track, producing music video content without manual keyframing.
Custom Model Deployment
When model weights are released, teams can fine-tune H3 on proprietary datasets, deploy on custom hardware, and build product-specific video generation pipelines.
