MiniMax H3 MaxUse the H3 Max Turbo AI video generator to turn a prompt or image into a 5–15 second video at 480P, 768P, or 1080P. For the standard workflow with reference-to-video support, use the MiniMax H3 Max AI video generator.
If a generation fails, times out, or is canceled, wait until it reaches a final status, then check your balance and generation history. If the balance looks wrong, contact support with the task ID.

H3 Max TurboAn online AI video generator with dedicated text and image workflows.
H3 Max Turbo is a video creation tool that turns a written prompt or uploaded image into a short generated clip. The complete workflow is available in the generator at the top of this page.
Text to Video begins from a prompt and lets you choose the output ratio. Image to Video begins from a required first frame, accepts an optional end frame, and uses the shape of the uploaded image. Both modes support 5–15 second duration, 480P, 768P, or 1080P resolution, and three prompt expansion settings.
The Generate button calculates the selected cost before submission. Turbo uses 1 credit per second at 480P, 2 at 768P, or 4 at 1080P. After submission, the page checks the task and places the finished video in the production preview.
Turbo uses a separate site task route from the standard H3 Max generator and currently offers Text to Video and Image to Video only. Choose the standard generator when you need Reference to Video. Turbo is the dedicated rapid-iteration route; choose between Turbo and Standard by input mode, output controls, and the delivery requirement.
Start with words when the idea is open, or start with an image when the first frame is already defined.
Write the scene you want to see, including the subject, action, camera movement, setting, and light. Text to Video supports clips from 5 to 15 seconds, 480P, 768P, or 1080P resolution, and six aspect ratios: 21:9, 16:9, 4:3, 1:1, 3:4, and 9:16. Use this mode when you want the prompt to define the full opening composition.
Upload a required first frame and add an optional end frame when the last composition needs to be controlled. Describe how the subject, camera, and environment should move between those images. Image to Video uses the input image shape, supports 5–15 second clips, and lets you choose 480P, 768P, or 1080P before generation.
Make short cinematic shots, image-led motion, designed transitions, and clips for horizontal, square, or vertical layouts.
Build a single establishing shot, reveal, close-up, or camera move from a focused text prompt. Keep one main action in each clip so the timing is easy to judge.
Animate an approved illustration, product image, portrait, or concept frame while keeping the first composition as the visual starting point.
Add an optional end image to describe where an Image to Video result should finish. This is useful when two designed frames need a motion bridge.
Use 9:16 for vertical video, 1:1 for square layouts, or another supported ratio when generating from text. Pick the shape before writing camera direction.
Choose any preview or use the arrows to compare five clear motion examples without leaving the page.

Each generation produces one clip between 5 and 15 seconds. Longer sequences need separate generations and a video editor. The available output choices on this site are 480P, 768P, and 1080P.
Text to Video accepts one written scene and a selected aspect ratio. Image to Video requires one starting image and can also use one end image. Keep the main action clear so you can tell which prompt change affected the result.
Balanced is the default prompt expansion mode. Disabled keeps the submitted wording unchanged, while Quality spends more effort expanding the prompt. The selected mode does not change the credit calculation.
Choose a mode, describe one shot, set the output, then generate and review the finished clip.
Use Text to Video when the prompt should create the entire shot. Use Image to Video when you already have the first frame. The Image to Video form also accepts an optional end frame.
Write the subject first, then the action, camera movement, lighting, and setting. Keep the prompt under 50,000 characters. A concise sequence of visual instructions is easier to revise after the first result.
Choose a duration from 5 to 15 seconds. Turbo uses 1 credit per second at 480P, 2 at 768P, or 4 at 1080P on this site. Text to Video also lets you select the aspect ratio. Prompt expansion can be Disabled, Balanced, or Quality.
Submit the task and keep the page open while its status is checked. When the video is ready, review the motion and composition, download the useful result, or adjust one control and generate another version.
Generation cost is based on video length and resolution; credit packs are one-time purchases.

H3 Max Turbo is an online AI video generator available directly on this page. It creates a short video from either a written prompt or an uploaded first frame. You can choose a duration from 5 to 15 seconds and select 480P, 768P, or 1080P output. Text to Video provides six aspect ratios, while Image to Video follows the uploaded image shape. The generator shows the required credits before you submit, checks the task until completion, and displays the finished video in the production preview.
H3 Max Turbo Text to Video starts with a required prompt. Describe the subject, action, camera, light, and setting you want in one short shot. You can then set a 5–15 second duration, choose 480P, 768P, or 1080P, select one of six supported aspect ratios, and pick a prompt expansion mode. The prompt is trimmed before submission and can contain up to 50,000 characters. Once submitted, the tool checks the task status and places the completed result in the preview panel.
H3 Max Turbo Image to Video requires a first-frame image and a written motion prompt. Upload the image, then describe how the subject, camera, and background should move. You may add an end-frame image when the final composition needs a defined destination. Set the duration from 5 to 15 seconds, choose 480P, 768P, or 1080P, and select Disabled, Balanced, or Quality prompt expansion. The generated video follows the shape of the uploaded image rather than using the separate Text to Video ratio selector.
H3 Max Turbo uses 1 credit per second at 480P, 2 credits per second at 768P, and 4 credits per second at 1080P. A 5-second clip therefore uses 5, 10, or 20 credits respectively. The generator calculates the total before the task is sent. These are this site's credit rules, not an external API dollar rate.
H3 Max Turbo supports video durations from 5 to 15 seconds in one-second steps. The available choices on this site are 480P, 768P, and 1080P. They use 1, 2, and 4 site credits per output second respectively. Text to Video supports 21:9, 16:9, 4:3, 1:1, 3:4, and 9:16. Image to Video takes its shape from the uploaded first frame.
Choose Disabled when you want the submitted prompt to remain unchanged. Choose Balanced for the default workflow and a moderate amount of prompt expansion. Choose Quality when you want the tool to spend more effort expanding the prompt before video generation. Prompt expansion changes prompt preparation, not the selected duration, resolution, aspect ratio, or credit rate. If you are comparing versions, keep the expansion mode the same and change only one other prompt or output control at a time.
Choose Text to Video or Image to Video, confirm the visible credit cost, and keep the finished result in the same production workspace.
The generator displays the exact credit total for your selected duration and resolution before you submit.
