What Is the Hailuo AI Video Generator?
The Hailuo AI Video Generator is an online tool for creating AI videos from text, images, and multimodal references. Instead of animating a scene frame by frame, describe the action you want and provide the visual or audiovisual references that should guide the result.
Powered by MiniMax H3, the workflow supports Text to Video, Image to Video, First & Last Frame, and Reference to Video generation with text, image, video, and audio inputs. Use it to create social clips, product videos, cinematic concepts, character scenes, storyboards, and other controlled AI video experiments.
Choose Your Starting Point
Choose a Hailuo AI Video Workflow
Hailuo AI Text to Video
Create a new AI video scene from a written prompt. Describe the subject, visible action, environment, camera direction, lighting, and sound when you want to generate a shot without starting from an image.
Hailuo AI Image to Video
Animate an existing portrait, product image, illustration, campaign visual, or environment. Let the image define the opening composition and use the prompt to control motion, camera movement, and scene development over time.
Hailuo AI First and Last Frame Video
Set the opening and ending visual states, then describe the transition between them. This workflow is useful for product reveals, pose changes, scene transformations, storyboard transitions, and controlled camera moves.
Hailuo AI Reference to Video
Use source images, video, and supported audio references to guide character identity, product appearance, motion, camera behavior, visual style, and sound when a text prompt alone is not enough.
Reference Control
Keep Characters and Products More Consistent
Use clear references for the details you want to preserve, including face, hairstyle, clothing, body proportions, packaging, materials, color, and product design. The current browser workspace accepts up to nine image references plus one video and one supported audio reference.
References give the model more context, but they do not guarantee perfect consistency. Review face identity, hands, small objects, product geometry, clothing, text, and background details throughout the finished video before publishing.
Audiovisual Direction
Generate Hailuo AI Videos with Native Audio
Describe sound alongside visible action, including footsteps, city ambience, rain, machinery, dialogue, music, or other scene-specific effects. Connecting audio to what happens on screen—such as an engine starting as a motorcycle pulls away—helps the video feel like one coordinated audiovisual scene.
For production use, review generated dialogue, timing, repetition, and sound continuity before publishing the final clip.
Camera Control
Control Camera Motion with Hailuo AI
Use clear camera directions such as a slow push-in, pullback, pan, tracking shot, orbit, tilt, handheld follow, static camera, close-up, or wide establishing shot.
One deliberate camera movement is usually easier to control than several competing instructions. For example, “slowly orbit clockwise around the product while keeping it centered” gives the model more useful direction than simply asking for “cinematic camera movement.”
Workflow
How to Use the Hailuo AI Video Generator
- 1
Choose Your Video Workflow
Select Text to Video to create a new scene from a prompt, Image to Video to animate an existing image, First & Last Frame to control both endpoints, or Reference to Video when character, product, motion, or style consistency matters.
- 2
Describe the Shot
Write your prompt around Subject → Action → Camera → Environment → Audio. Keep the main action clear, describe how the shot develops over time, and use specific camera directions instead of vague terms like “cinematic.”
- 3
Add References When Needed
Upload references when they communicate something text alone cannot describe reliably, such as a specific character, product design, motion pattern, camera move, visual style, or supported audio direction.
- 4
Adjust Settings, Generate, and Review
Choose the available duration, aspect ratio, resolution, and generation mode for your final use case. Generate the video, then review identity, motion, hands, objects, camera behavior, text, audio, and the final frame before accepting the result.
Use Cases
What Can You Create with Hailuo AI?
Use Hailuo AI for short-form content, product marketing, cinematic concepts, and previsualization. Start from text, images, keyframes, or references depending on the type of video you want to create.
Social Media Videos
Turn prompts, photos, characters, or campaign assets into short-form videos for vertical and horizontal social content, promos, teasers, and visual storytelling.
Product Ads
Animate approved product images into hero shots, reveal sequences, lifestyle scenes, and short ads with controlled camera movement, lighting, and motion.
Cinematic Concepts
Explore character blocking, environments, camera direction, lighting, atmosphere, and shot ideas before committing to a live-action production.
Storyboards and Previsualization
Turn storyboard frames and planned compositions into moving shot concepts. First-and-last-frame generation is especially useful when the opening and ending of the scene are already defined.
Prompt Guidance
Tips for Better Hailuo AI Video Results
- 01
Describe What Changes Over Time
Focus on movement and progression rather than only describing how the scene looks. Explain what the subject does, how the camera moves, and how the shot should develop.
- 02
Give Each Reference a Clear Role
When using multiple references, specify which one controls character identity, product appearance, motion, camera behavior, style, or sound. Avoid adding references that do not serve a clear purpose.
- 03
Treat Text and Product Details Carefully
Exact text, labels, logos, interfaces, and small product details can change during generation. Inspect important frames closely and add critical typography in post-production when accuracy matters.
- 04
Review Audio and Generate Alternatives
Listen to native audio for dialogue accuracy, timing, repetition, and unwanted sounds. Generate alternative versions when an important visual or audio detail does not remain stable.

What is the Hailuo AI Video Generator?
The Hailuo AI Video Generator is an online tool for creating AI videos from text, images, and multimodal references. This page uses MiniMax H3 to support Text to Video, Image to Video, First & Last Frame, and Reference to Video workflows.
Can Hailuo AI generate video from text?
Yes. Use Hailuo AI Text to Video to create a new scene from a written prompt. Describe the subject, action, environment, camera behavior, lighting, and sound to guide how the video develops over time.
Can I turn an image into a video with Hailuo AI?
Yes. Hailuo AI Image to Video can animate portraits, artwork, product images, characters, campaign visuals, and other source images while your prompt controls motion, camera movement, lighting, and sound.
Does Hailuo AI support first and last frames?
Yes. MiniMax H3 supports dedicated First & Last Frame generation. Upload an opening image and an ending image, then describe the motion and transition you want between the two visual states.
Can Hailuo AI use reference videos?
Yes. MiniMax H3 supports image, video, and supported audio references. Video references can provide additional guidance for motion, camera behavior, action rhythm, and other characteristics that may be difficult to describe with text alone.
Can Hailuo AI keep the same character?
Reference images give MiniMax H3 more information about a character's face, hairstyle, wardrobe, body proportions, and overall appearance. Consistency is not guaranteed, so review identity, hands, clothing, and other important details throughout the finished video.
Does Hailuo AI generate videos with sound?
Yes. MiniMax H3 supports native audiovisual generation with stereo audio. Prompts can include dialogue, ambience, sound effects, environmental sounds, and music direction alongside the visual scene.
Which Hailuo AI workflow should I use?
Use Text to Video when starting from a prompt, Image to Video when animating one source image, First & Last Frame when both endpoints need to be controlled, and Reference to Video when character identity, product appearance, motion, camera behavior, or other reference details need additional guidance.
