What it does
MiniMax H3-Developer Text-to-Video, in practice.
MiniMax H3-Developer Text-to-Video turns a single text prompt into a smooth, cinematic clip with sound. Generate native 480P or 768P video, or select an ESR tier to enhance the output to a 1080P, 1440P, or 4K short edge. Describe the scene and the action, and the model generates the video together with a synchronized soundtrack (ambient sound, effects, and music) synthesized from what you described.
- Text-driven generation Create a video from nothing but a prompt.
- Native audio A matching soundtrack is generated alongside the video — no separate audio input needed.
- Enhanced resolution output Generate native 480P or 768P video, or use ESR for a 1080P, 1440P, or 4K short edge.
- Flexible aspect ratios Choose 16:9, 9:16, or 1:1 to match your target platform.
- Selectable duration Produce 5–15s clips.
