AI Video Generator

Picture and stereo sound come out of the MiniMax H3 AI video generator in a single render, and one 4-15 second clip can hold several cuts, the pacing a hook or a verse needs.

A captain stands alone on a starship bridge before a window full of gathering warships.

A Teaser Sequence from One Line One sentence for a space-opera teaser produced a wide on the bridge, a close-up of the captain and the empty window once the fleet jumps, the kind of cold open an album trailer needs.

Two models in black and silver outfits pose in mirrored wraparound sunglasses against a white backdrop.

Vertical Fashion Cuts Close-ups, full-length looks and a closing brand card are cut together in 9:16, the same build an artist's eyewear or merch drop needs for Reels and paid social.

A snowboarder in a blue suit jumps a glacier crevasse on a steep slope.

Weight and Speed in Motion Snow sprays, the landing carries real weight and the chase camera stays with the rider, so fast action plays as one unbroken run, useful for high-energy cutaways between verses.

A woman and a man trade looks in a stalled elevator car.

Spoken Scenes Without Dubbing Close coverage and reaction shots arrive with the lines already spoken, so a skit between tracks or a short-drama beat skips the dubbing pass.

A small character in a pink monster hoodie leaps out of an animated poster toward the camera.

Posters That Come Alive The character leaps out of a flat poster layout while the headline, series number and small print stay crisp, a format that works for single and tour announcements.

Key Features of MiniMax H3 for Music Videos

The MiniMax H3 AI video generator reads text, images, video and audio as one brief and answers with a 2K clip and stereo sound. The artist's face, the camera move and the voice can each come from a file you name.

One Brief for Images, Clips and Audio

Number your files and give each a role, for example the camera move from Video 1, the singer from Image 2 and the vocals from Audio 3. H3 reads them together and builds a single performance shot from the set.

Stereo Sound from the Same Render

Dialogue, effects and music are generated with the picture in 32 kHz stereo. Name the ambience, the effects and the score separately and mark when each cue lands, so the swell hits as the baton lifts or the beat drops as the artist steps into frame.
Create a clip with sound

Readable Titles and Credits

On-screen text is drawn into the shot, from Japanese and English title cards to cast credits. Quote every word that should appear, and track titles, artist names and release dates come back ready for openings, lyric cards and posters.

Fine Detail at 2K

At 2K, H3 renders the clip a second time at full size from your original prompt and references, which keeps scales, lashes and small print sharp. Macro shots of jewelry, sneakers and vinyl hold up on big screens.

MiniMax H3 Use Cases for Rap Creators

Put the MiniMax H3 AI video generator to work on rap videos, release promos, skits and social clips. Every clip arrives with sound, so a first draft already plays close to a finished cut.

Sneaker and Merch Drops

Sneaker and Merch Drops

Upload a sneaker or product photo as the first frame, then write a slow turn, a cut to a detail and a pull back out. Shape and materials hold from every angle, ready for drop announcements, product pages and paid posts.

Artist Looks and Fashion Films

Artist Looks and Fashion Films

Add a portrait as a reference image and ask for a quick-cut campaign around her. Face, makeup and styling carry through each shot, with pacing that suits an outfit reveal or a single teaser.

Walkout Scenes and Trailers

Walkout Scenes and Trailers

Write the tunnel, the walkout and the ring as separate shots, each with its own camera move. H3 cuts between them in one clip and keeps the fighter's face and robe consistent, a structure that also fits an artist's entrance in a music video or a pitch reel.

Cartoon Characters and Animated Shorts

Cartoon Characters and Animated Shorts

Upload a style frame or describe the look, such as hand-drawn line art with flat color. The style holds through every cut, so a cartoon character can carry a lyric video or a short episode that closes on a title card.

Game Menus and UI Motion

Game Menus and UI Motion

Describe a start menu, a loadout screen and the drop into gameplay. Buttons, cursor moves and HUD elements stay readable frame to frame, useful for game-themed visualizers, store pages and pitches.

Food and Lifestyle B-Roll

Food and Lifestyle B-Roll

Write the texture, the pour and the sound, like honey over a split croissant and coffee filling a cup. Slow macro shots with matching effects suit social posts, café menus and the slower interludes of a lo-fi video.

MiniMax H3 Directing Controls

Shot timing, opening and closing frames, references and voice are all set from the prompt in the MiniMax H3 AI video generator.

Timed Shots for a Hook

Give each shot a start time, such as 0-4s for the wide of the crowd and 4-9s for the close-up on the artist. H3 cuts in that order within one clip and keeps the characters consistent across cuts.

Opening and Closing Frames

Upload a first image, a last image or both, and describe how the shot travels from one to the other. H3 fills in the motion, so the clip can land exactly on your cover art or pack shot.

A Role for Every Reference

Mix 9 images, 3 videos and 3 audio clips in a single generation and say what each one controls, such as the artist, the location or the look. When two references conflict, say which one takes priority.

Moves and Camera from a Clip

Add a clip of a dance routine, a stunt or a camera move and refer to it in the prompt. H3 carries the movement over to your own character and set.

Voice Samples and Spoken Lines

Add a voice sample, assign it to a character and write every line exactly as it should sound. MiniMax lists stable dialogue in 11 languages, among them English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Spanish.

Length, Resolution and Frame

Set any length from 4 to 15 seconds in 768P or 2K. Use 16:9 or 21:9 for widescreen music videos, 9:16 for TikTok, Reels and Shorts, and 1:1, 4:3 or 3:4 for feed posts.

Clips Made with MiniMax H3

From a single line of text to a scene built on reference clips and audio, the MiniMax H3 AI video generator follows what you write about camera, performance and sound.

A family laughs around a low wooden table as steam rises from a bowl of ramen in the foreground.

Image to video: dinner with steam

First frame: a family dinner photo with a bowl of ramen up front. Shift focus to the people in the background and add more steam rising from the ramen.

A voice taken from a reference clip

Reference video 1 and reference audio 1: the man in the pink suit says, "Follow the wind, live free. Leave worries behind, enjoy the moment." His voice matches the timbre of audio 1.

Knitted felt pigeons peck at a slice of toast on a wooden bench in a busy city square.

Stop-motion pigeons in the square

Stop-motion look: knitted felt pigeons peck at a slice of toast on a wooden bench in a crowded European square. Camera low at bench height, passersby soft in the background, with cooing, footsteps and street chatter.

A breakdancer spins on the concrete under a highway overpass while a crowd watches.

Breaking beneath the overpass

Handheld documentary shot under a highway overpass: a breakdancer drops into windmills and a freeze as a circle of onlookers in dark hoodies watches. A boom-bap beat plays from a speaker, with cheers on the freeze.

A papercut boy holds a kite string in tall paper grass beneath rolling orange hills.

Papercut kite at dusk

Papercut animation at dusk: a small boy holds a kite string in tall paper grass below rolling orange hills. The camera pulls back and rises to reveal a bright kite high in a deep blue sky. Soft wind and rustling paper.

Two hikers lie laughing in the heather as they catch a map on a misty moor.

Wind steals the map

On a misty moor, a gust of wind snatches two hikers' map. A wide shot follows the chase downhill, then a low close-up catches them diving into the heather, laughing, to pin it down. Wind and breathless laughter.

FAQs About the MiniMax H3 AI Video Generator

Answers about using MiniMax H3 for rap and music video work, plus the plans, credits and billing behind it on RapVid.

MiniMax H3 is MiniMax's newest video model, released on July 31, 2026 as the successor to Hailuo 02, and plenty of creators call it Hailuo 3. It treats text, images, video and audio as a single brief and returns video with native stereo sound. On RapVid we've set it up for text to video, image to video, first and last frame video and reference to video, all in one workspace.

Three differences matter. H3 generates sound along with the picture, where Hailuo 2.3 on RapVid gives you silent clips. It accepts 9 images, 3 videos and 3 audio clips as references, against a single image for Hailuo 2.3. And it renders any length from 4 to 15 seconds in 768P or 2K, where Hailuo 2.3 offers 6 or 10 seconds in 768P or 1080P. For a quick silent test from one photo, Hailuo 2.3 uses fewer credits and is still where we'd start.

Anything from 4 to 15 seconds at 24 frames per second, in 768P or 2K. Aspect ratios are 16:9, 21:9, 4:3, 1:1, 3:4 and 9:16, plus Auto, which lets the model choose the fit. Our tip: work out timing and framing at 768P and keep 2K for the take you'll post.

Yes. Each clip carries 32 kHz stereo sound generated with the picture, covering dialogue, ambience, effects and music. Write spoken lines exactly as they should sound and name the speaker. MiniMax lists stable dialogue in 11 languages: Arabic, Chinese, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish. The model has no audio switch, so mute the track in your editor when you want a silent clip, and lay your finished song over the cuts when the clip belongs to a music video.

Up to 9 images, 3 video clips and 3 audio clips per video. All the video clips together can run 15 seconds, and so can all the audio clips together. MiniMax allows 12 files per request in total, and audio needs at least one image or video beside it. Say what each file does in your prompt, for example which image is the artist, which clip sets the camera move and which track sets the voice. Only upload material you have the rights to use.

Partly. MiniMax released the H3 weights on August 3, 2026 under its own community license, which excludes some regions. A local install renders at 768p, because the 2K regeneration step and the prompt preprocessing remain on MiniMax's hosted service. RapVid runs the hosted model, so 2K works with no setup.

MiniMax H3 comes with the Plus and Premium plans, which open up every model on RapVid, Hailuo 2.3 and the Seedance family included. Free and Starter include Seedance 2.0 Fast and Seedance 2.0 Mini, a good place to try ideas before you upgrade.

Yes to both. Cancel from the Membership tab in account settings and every benefit stays active until the end of the period you've paid for, after which the account moves to the Free plan. Monthly and annual orders can be refunded based on how much of the plan you've used, and our team handles requests within 24 hours.
