MiniMax H3 text to video prompts to try
These are prompts, not published outputs. Each one names a single action, a time range inside the selected duration, and the sound. Run them on this canvas if you want a real file.
MiniMax H3 prompt for one continuous action
Suggested settings: 16:9, 480p, 6 seconds. The buttons in the canvas can paste the wording. They do not store a finished video.
A ceramic pour-over on a walnut counter in a quiet kitchen. From 0s to 2s a kettle tilts and a thin stream of water hits the grounds. From 2s to 5s steam rises and the camera pushes in slightly. From 5s to 6s the pour stops and the shot holds. Soft room tone, no music, no cuts, no new objects.
MiniMax AI video generator soundtrack notes
Suggested settings: 9:16, 480p, 8 seconds. The buttons in the canvas can paste the wording. They do not store a finished video.
Vertical night market, one cook flips noodles in a wok. From 0s to 3s the flame flares and the noodles leave the pan. From 3s to 6s they land and steam rises. From 6s to 8s the cook looks up and the shot holds. Soundtrack: wok sizzle and nearby chatter, no voiceover, no music, one continuous shot.
MiniMax H3 video generation for a product turn
Suggested settings: 1:1, 768p, 5 seconds. The buttons in the canvas can paste the wording. They do not store a finished video.
Square studio shot of a matte white bottle on a gray sweep. From 0s to 5s the bottle turns 45 degrees on a slow turntable and the key light stays fixed. No label text, no hands, no cut. Quiet room tone only.
- 1. One subject and one verb. A pour, a flip, or a turn. A second event belongs in a second clip.
- 2. Fit the beats to the duration. A 5-second default cannot hold a 12-second shot list. Change the duration control instead of hoping the model compresses the script.
- 3. Write the sound on purpose. Name room tone, a specific effect, or "no music." Native stereo audio follows that description. There is no audio upload.
- 4. Draft at 480p. 768p costs twice the credits. Use it after the action and the frame are right.
What MiniMax H3 text to video generates
This is the text path for MiniMax H3 on RenderFlow AI. The required field is the prompt. Optional controls are aspect ratio, resolution, duration, and seed. The catalog description says the model generates video and native stereo audio from that prompt.
MiniMax H3 choices that change the file
Aspect ratio is 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:3, 3:4, 21:9, 9:21, default 16:9. Resolution is 480p or 768p, default 480p. 768p is the higher-fidelity option and uses twice the credits. 1080p and 2K are not listed. Duration is every whole second from 5 to 15 seconds, default 5. Seed defaults to -1, which the schema describes as a random seed.
MiniMax AI video generator, and where Hailuo sits
Hailuo 02 Standard is a different MiniMax text-to-video model. It offers 6 or 10 seconds at 5 credits per second and has no aspect-ratio control. Use Hailuo 02 Standard for that simpler draft. Stay here when you need 9:16 or 1:1, a 5 to 15 second length, or 480p versus 768p.
MiniMax H3 text to video versus image to video
Pick the page that matches the asset you already have. The image-to-video guide covers first frames and last frames. This page does not repeat that upload workflow.
