MiniMax H3 Max Reference, give your references a leading role.

A text prompt explains the shot; references explain what should stay recognizable. Use H3 Max Reference when a recurring subject, a visual treatment or an audio cue matters more than starting from a blank prompt.

Why MiniMax H3 Max Reference?

One shot. Multiple sources of creative direction.

A practical creative workflow for reference-led product stories and more.

Useful starting points include reference-led product stories, recurring characters across short scenes, music- or motion-guided creative experiments. Choose one specific outcome for the first pass.

The controls below describe what is available in HighReach, not every option in the underlying API. 1080P is refined from 768P, not native 1080P generation.

MiniMax H3 Max Reference capabilities

Turn creative direction into a workable shot.

Explore what MiniMax H3 Max Reference supports in HighReach, with controls and limits that match the current integration.

Visual identity

Anchor the subject, not just the style.

Use image references to communicate the product, wardrobe or character you want to carry into a new scene. Identify what each reference controls, then check those details in the result.

Multimodal direction

Bring motion and sound into the brief.

Add short video or audio references alongside images. HighReach accepts up to nine images, three videos and three audio files, with a combined limit of twelve references.

Resolution choices

Approve the idea before the finish.

Generate 5–15 second clips at 480P or 768P for review. Choose refined 1080P for a later pass, remembering that reference inputs can add to the output cost.

Connected production

Brief, generate, compare, and refine without losing the creative thread.

How it works

Your first video creation, in three decisions.

Prepare the brief, choose the controls that matter, then review a small first pass before a larger production run.

Prepare the creative brief

Upload only the references needed for one shot.

Choose your direction

Explain the role of each reference and describe motion, camera and sound.

Generate, review and refine

Start at 768P, inspect consistency, and revise the shot before producing a full sequence.

Plan your generation

Know the cost before you create.

Normal pricing. No temporary launch discount built into your quote.

Normal output rates are $0.05 / $0.08 / $0.16 per second for 480P / 768P / 1080P, plus $0.02 per 1,000 reference tokens above the shared 4,096-token allowance. HighReach estimates reference tokens before generation; video-heavy requests can cost substantially more than the output-only example.

Credits include HighReach's service margin. The tool recalculates the estimate for your settings and references. Actual token usage and output length can differ from an estimate.

Prompt playbook

Write better MiniMax H3 Max Reference prompts.

A useful prompt behaves like a compact director's brief. Give every detail a job instead of stacking visual adjectives.

Give each reference a specific role.

Describe what should change and what must stay the same.

Review text, identity and fine details before publishing.

Starting brief

Reference-led product stories

Another direction

Direct one character through a new setting

Use the first image for the character's coat and appearance, and the second for the station interior. One continuous medium shot follows the character walking toward the platform. Preserve the coat color and silhouette. Gentle camera movement, natural footsteps, no captions.

Compare MiniMax H3 Max Reference with other video models.

No single model is best for every brief. Compare the controls, cost and results that matter for your production workflow.

Production notes

What to check before the final export.

Check 01

1080P is refined from 768P, not native 1080P generation.

Check 02

Reference similarity is guidance, not a guarantee of exact identity or unchanged product details.

Check 03

Video and audio uploads need known duration metadata. Input tokens beyond the shared allowance cost extra.
