Summary

At $0.082 per second of video it is fairly cheap; a typical video model costs $0.12.

New in Hailuo 2.3 are, according to MiniMax, more precise complex body movement, better response to motion commands, lighting and physics, and finer facial expressions. The general video model runs through API and web access and generates up to 1080p and 10 seconds.

Anime, illustration, ink-wash painting, and game CG are part of its expanded style support. Hailuo 2.3 remains focused on video generation, separate from the explicitly audio-visual approach of MiniMax H3.

Prompt and settings

Generate exactly one continuous five-second 16:9 cinematic video. A fictional bicycle courier in a mustard-yellow raincoat rides a red city bicycle from left to right across a rain-wet Hamburg street at blue hour for the entire clip. The camera tracks her smoothly at waist height. Both hands remain visible on the handlebars, the bicycle geometry stays physically correct, and a transparent umbrella fixed to the bicycle moves naturally in the wind. Wet-street reflections and raindrops follow realistic physics. No cuts, no slow motion, no text, no logos, no subtitles, and no audio.
