MiniMax Hailuo 2.3 — Image-to-Video (I2V) Standard
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: 1080p
💰 Pricing
| Duration | Resolution | Cost per Job |
|---|---|---|
| 6 seconds | 1080p | $0.28 |
| 10 seconds | 1080p | $0.56 |
🚀 How to Use
- Upload a reference image as your base frame.
- (Optional) Add a prompt describing the desired motion or action. Example: “A motorcycle drives along a winding mountain road, camera panning smoothly to follow.”
- Choose the duration (6 s or 10 s).
- Click Run and wait for processing.
- 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.

Parameters
Task Submission Parameters
Request Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| prompt | string | No | - | The positive prompt for the generation. | |
| image | string | Yes | - | The model generates video with the picture passed in as the first frame.Base64 encoded strings in data:image/jpeg; base64,{data} format for incoming images, or URLs accessible via the public network. The uploaded image needs to meet the following conditions: Format is JPG/JPEG/PNG; The aspect ratio is greater than 2:5 and less than 5:2; Short side pixels greater than 300px; The image file size cannot exceed 20MB. | |
| duration | integer | No | 6 | 6, 10 | The duration of the generated media in seconds. |
| enable_prompt_expansion | boolean | No | false | - | The model automatically optimizes incoming prompts to enhance output quality. This also activates the safety checker, which ensures content safety by detecting and filtering potential risks. |
