Prompt guide MINIMAX · FROM 610 CREDITS PER CLIP

MiniMax H3 prompt examples

MiniMax H3 makes 8-second clips on Motheia, at 768P for drafts or 2K for finals. Eight seconds is enough for two short beats, so these prompts describe a small sequence and the camera. They are starting points, not showcased results: open one in the studio, adjust it, and check the credit cost before you generate.

8 prompts to start from

Each button opens the studio with the model and prompt filled in.

  1. 01 ADS AND LAUNCHES

    Two-beat product story

    START FROM TEXT

    Shot 1: a hand places a glass bottle of cold brew on a sunlit kitchen counter. Shot 2: close-up as condensation runs down the label. Cinematic, warm tones.

    Two labelled beats use the full 8 seconds without crowding.

    Use this prompt: Two-beat product story
  2. 02 B-ROLL AND WALLPAPERS

    Nature detail in 2K

    START FROM TEXT

    A hummingbird hovers at a red flower, wings blurred, petals trembling, background softly out of focus. Camera: locked-off macro.

    Fine motion and texture are where the 2K option pays off.

    Use this prompt: Nature detail in 2K
  3. 03 MUSIC AND MOOD CLIPS

    Rainy city night

    START FROM TEXT

    A rain-soaked neon street at night; a cyclist with a clear umbrella rides through puddles that reflect the signs. Camera: side tracking shot.

    Reflections and rain build atmosphere fast.

    Use this prompt: Rainy city night
  4. 04 PHOTOS INTO SHORT CLIPS

    Animate a pet photo

    START FROM AN IMAGE

    Animate this photo of a dog: it tilts its head, perks up its ears and wags its tail. Keep the background and fur color unchanged.

    A few small actions keep the animal recognisable.

    Use this prompt: Animate a pet photo
  5. 05 PRODUCT AND APP EXPLAINERS

    Explainer B-roll

    START FROM TEXT

    Top-down shot of hands sketching a mobile app wireframe on paper, then sliding a phone with the same screen into frame. Clean desk, daylight.

    A visual before-and-after inside one shot.

    Use this prompt: Explainer B-roll
  6. 06 LOOKBOOKS AND SOCIAL

    Fashion walk

    START FROM TEXT

    A model in a flowing red dress walks toward the camera on a windy beach at dusk, the fabric rippling. Camera: slow dolly back.

    Fabric and wind give the motion something to show.

    Use this prompt: Fashion walk
  7. 07 INTERIORS AND REAL ESTATE

    Room walk-through

    START FROM TEXT

    A slow walk-through of a minimalist living room with oak floors and a large window; morning light shifts across the sofa. Camera: steady gimbal moving forward.

    One steady move and changing light read as a calm tour.

    Use this prompt: Room walk-through
  8. 08 STORYTELLING AND INTROS

    A short story beat

    START FROM TEXT

    An old fisherman pulls a glowing bottle from the sea, uncorks it and looks up in surprise as light spills out. Camera: medium shot pushing in.

    Setup, action and reaction inside eight seconds.

    Use this prompt: A short story beat

How to write your own

01

Use the eight seconds

Two short beats fit: an action and its result, or a wide shot and a close-up. Label them "Shot 1" and "Shot 2" if you want a cut.

02

Give the motion a texture

Fabric, water, wings or rain show movement clearly; name one moving material in the frame.

03

Draft at 768P, finish at 2K

Settle the idea at the lower price, then rerun the prompt you like at 2K.

04

Keep identities fixed from an image

For image-to-video, say which details stay unchanged — face, fur color, label, background.
