Find your starting point

Use cases

Choose a useful direction, then adapt the example to your own brief.

Turn your idea into a creation

Give a favorite image a little more life. Try a subtle smile, a head turn or moving hair; add fabric, background and camera movement to an illustration. Start with one clear action in a short clip, then explore different pacing and composition.

Choose the format and length for your clip

MiniMax H3 offers 16:9 landscape and 9:16 portrait. Generate 1–15 seconds at 480p or 768p, or 1–10 seconds at 1080p, with up to 9 references and one video per request. Try a shorter clip to explore motion, then choose the resolution for your next version. Available settings and the credit total appear before you generate.

Real outputs and practical use cases

These examples were generated through this site’s models or effects. Reference people and products are AI-created. Each is one result, not a fixed-output promise; prompts show the exact original wording. A button restores settings for review and never submits or spends credits automatically.

Actual creation examples

A portrait reference brought into motion

One fictional adult portrait guides a restrained turn and expression. Review facial features and movement throughout the clip.

View the exact prompt

An editorial portrait clip of the fictional adult woman in the reference photo. Keep her cream shirt, short black bob, freckles and warm expression. She gently turns her head a few degrees and smiles slightly. Steady camera, soft studio lighting, natural breathing, no dramatic gestures, no text, no cuts.

Start creating in three steps

  1. Step 01

    Bring a clearer brief

    Start with a written scene, one image or up to nine image references.

  2. Step 02

    Select the input and settings

    Choose portrait or landscape and a short duration; 1080p supports up to 10 seconds.

  3. Step 03

    Review, save and reuse

    Test a short clip and inspect every section for shape or face drift.

Write a more useful creative brief

Keep a clear subject and a single goal. The example prompt is a starting point you can edit.

Subject + purpose + composition + light or motion + what to preserve

Open the creation workspace
  1. Subject and input

    A still subject and slow camera push are a useful first test.

  2. Composition and control

    Avoid large rotations and occlusion when recognizable details matter.

  3. Review and refine

    For several references, explain which establishes the person, outfit, object or setting.

Choose the output for its destination

Set the ratio and available output options in the workspace. Inspect the actual result before export. Choose only ratios supported by the selected model. A new ratio can reframe or regenerate the image.

Creative questions

Can I start without a reference image?

Yes. Describe a character, scene and style to begin. With an existing image, choose an image-input model to edit it or create a clip.

Can I see the credit cost before generating?

Yes. The total appears beside Generate after you choose a model and settings. Credits charged for failed generations are returned.

What other visual styles can I explore?

Start with realistic portraits, anime characters, fashion styling and cinematic scenes. For NSFW themes, choose ideas that fit your selected model's content rules.

Can I create from a phone?

You can open the workspace in a mobile browser. Prepare the original image first and review the result at its full size before publishing.

Where can I save the finished result?

After a successful generation, open the result or creation history to save it. Inspect the original file and add exact text or finishing edits where needed.
