Features
Hunyuan Video Text-to-Video
Transform your ideas into stunning videos with Hunyuan Video Text-to-Video. This state-of-the-art model from Tencent generates high-quality 720p videos directly from text descriptions — bringing your imagination to life with smooth motion and cinematic visuals.
Why It Stands Out
- Pure text-to-video generation: No source image required — simply describe your vision and watch it unfold.
- HD output: Generate crisp 1280×720 videos with rich detail and visual clarity.
- Prompt Enhancer: Built-in AI-powered prompt optimization helps craft better descriptions for improved results.
- Smooth motion: Advanced temporal modeling ensures natural, fluid movement across frames.
- Flexible sizing: Multiple aspect ratio options to fit your content needs.
- Reproducibility: Use the seed parameter to recreate exact results or explore variations.

Parameters
| Parameter | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| prompt | Yes | Text description of the video you want to generate. |
| size | No | Output resolution (default: 1280×720). |
| seed | No | Set for reproducibility; -1 for random. |
| num_inference_steps | No | Quality/speed trade-off (default: 30). |
How to Use
- Write a prompt describing the scene, characters, action, and style you want. Use the Prompt Enhancer for AI-assisted optimization.
- Select size — choose the aspect ratio that fits your content.
- Adjust inference steps — higher values may improve quality at the cost of speed.
- Set a seed (optional) for reproducible results.
- Click Run and wait for your video to generate.
- Preview and download the result.
Best Use Cases
- Social Media Content — Create viral-worthy video clips for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts.
- Marketing & Advertising — Produce concept videos and promotional content without filming.
- Storytelling & Animation — Generate scenes for short films, music videos, or creative projects.
- Game & App Previews — Create cinematic trailers and gameplay concepts from descriptions.
- Educational Content — Visualize complex concepts and scenarios for learning materials.
Pro Tips for Best Quality
- Be detailed in your prompt — describe subject, action, environment, lighting, mood, and camera movement.
- Include style keywords like “cinematic,” “realistic,” “anime,” or “futuristic” to guide the aesthetic.
- Start with lower inference steps for quick previews, then increase for final renders.
- Fix the seed when iterating to compare the effect of different prompt adjustments.
- Keep prompts focused — overly complex descriptions may dilute the output quality.
Notes
- Processing time varies based on current queue load.
- Please ensure your prompts comply with content guidelines.
