Aperçu

À propos de ce modèle

MiniMax H3 Max Image to Video animates a source image into a moving video clip at up to 1080p resolution, guided by a motion prompt. Supply a starting frame with image_url, an optional end_image_url to anchor the final frame, and describe the camera movement and action you want in between. Durations run from 5 to 15 seconds across six aspect ratios, with an optional prompt-expansion pass for richer motion detail. It follows Muapi's standard asynchronous request/poll/webhook pattern. For pure text-to-video generation without a source image, see MiniMax H3 Max Text to Video; to blend multiple image, video, and audio references, see MiniMax H3 Max Reference to Video.

How to Use MiniMax H3 Max Image to Video

Provide a source frame: Set image_url to your starting image, or end_image_url alone to generate up to that frame. At least one of the two is required.
Describe the motion: Write prompt to describe the motion, action, and camera movement you want applied to the image.
Pick resolution and duration: Set resolution to 480p, 768p, or 1080p, and duration to any value from 5 to 15 seconds.
Choose prompt expansion (optional): Set prompt_expansion_mode to disabled, balanced (default), or quality for stronger prompt rewriting before generation.
Submit and retrieve: POST the request, then poll /predictions/{request_id}/result or supply a webhook_url to receive the finished video URL.

Questions courantes

Foire aux questions

What does MiniMax H3 Max Image to Video generate?

It animates a source image into a video clip, using a text prompt to describe the desired motion and camera movement, at up to 1080p resolution.

Do I need both a start and end image?

No. You need at least one of `image_url` or `end_image_url` — using only `end_image_url` generates motion leading up to that frame.

What resolutions and durations are supported?

Resolution can be 480p, 768p, or 1080p, and duration can be any value from 5 to 15 seconds.

What is prompt_expansion_mode?

It controls how much the model rewrites your motion prompt before rendering. `disabled` uses your prompt as-is, `balanced` applies light rewriting, and `quality` applies the most thorough rewrite.

How do I retrieve the finished video?

Poll the request ID returned by the initial POST at `/predictions/{request_id}/result`, or pass a `webhook_url` to be notified when the video is ready.

Can I control the exact end frame of the video?

Yes, supply `end_image_url` alongside or instead of `image_url` to anchor how the clip ends.
