Hailuo is MiniMax's high-fidelity AI video generation model designed to create realistic motion, expressive characters, and cinematic visuals. It supports both text-to-video and image-to-video, handling complex movements, lighting changes, and detailed facial expressions with stability and consistency.
High-fidelity image-to-video with 6s or 10s duration, 768P or 1080P resolution. Best for cinematic quality and detailed motion. Note: 10s videos do not support 1080P.
Use this feature →Efficient image-to-video with the same controls: prompt, single image input, 6s/10s duration, 768P/1080P. Balanced quality and speed.
Use this feature →Motion and fidelity: Hailuo brings MiniMax's high-fidelity video generation to a single, easy-to-use workflow. Whether you choose Pro for maximum cinematic quality or Standard for faster iteration, you get realistic motion, expressive characters, and stable, consistent output.
Image-to-video first: Both tiers focus on animating a single input image with a text prompt—ideal for concept art, product shots, character animation, and creative storytelling. No video editing expertise required.
Pro Image to Video
Prompt: Natural language description of the desired video animation; max 5000 characters.
Input image: Single image required; formats JPEG, PNG, WebP; max 10MB.
Duration: 6 seconds (standard) or 10 seconds (extended). Note: 10-second videos do not support 1080P resolution—use 768P.
Resolution: 768P (web and social) or 1080P (full HD; only when duration is 6s).
Use cases: Cinematic clips, character animation, product demos, high-quality social and marketing content.
Standard Image to Video
Same parameters as Pro: prompt (max 5000 characters), single image (JPEG/PNG/WebP, max 10MB), duration 6s or 10s, resolution 768P or 1080P (1080P not available for 10s).
Optimized for speed and cost while maintaining strong motion and visual consistency.
Use cases: Rapid prototyping, batch content, social shorts, and workflows where turnaround time matters.
Social media content: Create short, high-quality clips for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts with 6s or 10s duration and 768P/1080P output.
Advertising and marketing: Animate product shots, brand visuals, and concept art with realistic motion and lighting.
Creative projects: Bring illustrations and character art to life with expressive motion and detailed facial expressions.
Concept validation: Quickly test video ideas from a single image and prompt before committing to full production.
Educational and explainer content: Produce clear, consistent motion for tutorials and visual explanations.
Prompt length: Up to 5000 characters for both Pro and Standard.
Input: Single image; JPEG, PNG, or WebP; max 10MB.
Duration: 6 seconds or 10 seconds. Important: 10-second videos are not supported at 1080P—select 768P when using 10s.
Resolution: 768P (all duration options) or 1080P (6s only).
Output: Video delivered via secure URL or direct download; format and codec follow platform defaults.
Concurrency: Supports parallel requests with queue management; typical generation time varies by resolution and duration.
Choose tier: Select Pro Image to Video for highest quality or Standard Image to Video for balanced speed and quality.
Upload image: Provide one image (JPEG, PNG, or WebP; max 10MB) as the base frame.
Write prompt: Describe the desired animation—motion, lighting changes, character expression, scene evolution (up to 5000 characters).
Set parameters: Pick duration (6s or 10s) and resolution (768P or 1080P; remember 1080P is only for 6s).
Generate: Submit and wait for the result; preview in the result panel and download when ready.
Prompt crafting: Be specific about motion, lighting, and expression. Example: "A graceful geisha performs a traditional Japanese dance indoors. Soft hand movements, sleeves flowing naturally. Warm ambient lighting, cinematic, soft depth of field" yields better results than a generic "person dancing."
Duration and resolution: Use 6s + 1080P for final HD assets; use 10s + 768P when you need longer clips (1080P is not available for 10s).
Image quality: Higher resolution, well-lit input images produce smoother and more consistent animations.
Pro vs Standard: Use Pro for client work, hero content, and when quality is the priority; use Standard for drafts, batch runs, and faster iteration.
