Original results
MiniMax H3 Max examples made in Made
These examples use media produced for Made. Prompts are included when the production record allows them.
Image-to-video
“Bring the scene to life with a slow orbital camera move, natural fabric motion, and drifting dust in the light.”
Creative scene
“Close-up of espresso pouring into a glass cup in warm morning light, steam curling, a slow push-in on the crema.”
Start-frame control
“Use this image as the opening composition.”
Scene direction
“Establish the framing and light before describing the motion.”
Composition brief
“Plan the shot as a still, then hand the motion to the model.”
Where MiniMax H3 Max fits best
Best uses
- Very fast motion and camera-direction iteration
- Animating a still image with an optional end frame
- Short social clips in wide, square, or portrait formats
- Low-cost drafts before a premium video model pass
Limits to know
- 1080P costs twice the 768P rate per second, so draft at 480P, the default, and render finals at the tier you need.
- Prompt expansion is on by default and can reinterpret terse prompts; set precise motion language for exact control.

Write a prompt on its own, or add a start image — and optionally an end frame — to anchor the clip.
- 2
Describe motion precisely
Name the subject movement, camera path, and pacing; precise language matters with prompt expansion enabled.
- 3
Set format and length
Pick an aspect ratio, a duration between 5 and 15 seconds, and 480P, 768P, or 1080P; Made starts at 480P, the cheapest.
