MiniMax H3 Fast Reference-to-Video keeps the subjects from your reference materials consistent throughout a clip, at the lowest cost and quickest turnaround in the H3 family.

Sample prompt
The prompt behind the sample.
A futuristic silver Formula-style concept race car rests on an endless mirror-like salt flat beneath a dreamy pastel sunset sky. Massive pink and lavender clouds slowly drift across the horizon, perfectly reflected on the glassy surface below. The camera begins with an extremely low-angle wide shot, slowly dollying toward the car, then smoothly transitions into a cinematic orbit around the vehicle, revealing its sculpted aerodynamic body, polished chrome surfaces, exposed wheels, and flawless reflection. Subtle wind creates delicate ripples across the reflective ground while clouds move slowly
