Playground

MiniMax Hailuo 2.3 Standard is an image-to-video model producing physics-aware 768p output with a 2.5x efficiency improvement. Ready-to-use REST inference API, best performance, no coldstarts, affordable pricing.

Features

Hailuo 2.3 I2V Standard is MiniMax’s latest image-to-video model, designed to animate static images into smooth, cinematic video clips. It combines natural motion synthesis, physical realism, and character consistency — enabling creators to bring still visuals vividly to life.

🎬 Why It Looks Great

• Cinematic Motion – Generates dynamic, camera-like movement such as panning, tracking, and zooming.
• Physics-Aware Animation – Simulates object dynamics (wind, light reflection, motion blur) with realistic precision.
• Consistent Structure – Preserves the original image’s composition, lighting, and character details.
• Flexible Duration Options – Choose between 6-second and 10-second clips.
• Professional Fidelity – Delivers filmic quality suitable for storytelling, ads, or product demos.

⚙️ Limits and Performance

• Input: single reference image (JPEG / PNG)
• Optional Input: text prompt to guide motion and scene behavior
• Duration: 6 seconds or 10 seconds
• Output resolution: 768p

💰 Pricing

🚀 How to Use

1. Upload a reference image as your base frame.
2. (Optional) Add a prompt describing the desired motion or action. Example: “A motorcycle drives along a winding mountain road, camera panning smoothly to follow.”
3. Choose the duration (6 s or 10 s).
4. Click Run and wait for processing.
5. Download your animated video.

💡 Pro Tips

• Keep prompts concise (1–2 sentences) to maintain visual stability.
• Use camera verbs like pan, follow, zoom, or rotate to define motion direction.
• For dynamic results, pick 10 s; for previews or loops, choose 6 s.
• The model preserves fine lighting and depth details — great for cinematic storytelling and concept visuals.
