MiniMax H3 is the third generation of MiniMax's Hailuo video line. MiniMax describes Hailuo 01 and Hailuo 02 as the two generations before it. Use it for one clear action: a prompt that already describes the take, a frame you want the motion to start from, or several pictures the clip should follow.
What it is good at
MiniMax describes H3 as a general-purpose video model that reads a multimodal brief and generates the clip. On Visxy you direct it with the prompt and the pictures, not with a sound switch.
How to use it on Visxy
Write the shot. Give one picture as the opening frame and an optional second as the closing frame. Or open MiniMax H3 Reference and attach two to five pictures. Those pictures are not named with @ tags.
Where it differs
Wan 2.7 also takes an opening and closing frame, and its reference mode wants the pictures named in the prompt. Kling 3.0 adds a sound switch. H3's reference pictures stand on their own, without @ tags.
FAQ
Can I use reference pictures?
Yes. MiniMax H3 Reference takes two to five pictures. Do not name them with @ tags. Describe what they are in the prompt.
Is there a sound switch?
No. Kling 3.0, Seedance 2.5, Veo 3.1, Flux 3, and PixVerse V6 are among the models where sound is a switch.
Can I set a last frame?
Yes. The second picture is the closing frame.
Is this part of Hailuo?
Yes. MiniMax describes H3 as the generation after Hailuo 01 and Hailuo 02.
