What Sets Minimax H3 Video To Video Apart

Think of it as a replacement pass over a take you have already locked: everything the shot does right is preserved, and only the identities on screen change.

  • Recasting, not regenerating
    Nothing is built from scratch. The tool works on the take you already captured, so the original look, grain and lighting are never rebuilt.
  • Up to four faces, supplied by photo
    Supply a single clear portrait per newcomer — four at most — and each one inherits an on-screen part, matched left to right and tracked through every shot they appear in.
  • Your footage still does the acting
    Gestures, timing, lighting, lens movement, cutting rhythm and the mixed soundtrack all carry over, which means the output drops straight back into your timeline.

How Minimax H3 Video To Video Works in 3 Steps

Start with a take you are happy with, order your reference photos to match the screen, and let the model handle the rest.

Where Minimax H3 Video To Video Shines

The performance, the cutting rhythm and the soundtrack of your source material are left exactly as they were — only the faces change.

Four new faces, mapped left to right

Four images is the maximum, and each one claims an on-screen part in left-to-right sequence, staying attached to that person across every cut. A short prompt can swap the assignment.

The acting is untouched; the identities are new

Every gesture, beat, expression, lighting cue and camera move originates in your original footage, while the new likenesses and their clothing are pulled from the images you provide.

Editing rhythm and audio come along

Your cutting pace and the mixed soundtrack are carried through unchanged, so the output can be dropped into an approved edit without a rebuild.

Affordable 768p checks, 1080p delivery

Verify the result at 768p before paying for the higher tier, and since the output mirrors your input's runtime, cost scales with how long the clip runs.

Hair and wardrobe arrive with the photo

If your reference image shows more than a head, hairstyle and garments transfer as well — a half-body frame therefore outperforms a cropped headshot.

Made for takes that are already right

Production crews, brand teams, social publishers and fashion or retail studios reach for it whenever a shot is flawless but features the wrong person.

FAQ

Minimax H3 Video To Video: Common Questions

Answers to the questions people ask most about replacing performers in footage that is already shot.

1

What exactly does Minimax H3 Video To Video do?

It substitutes the people visible in an existing video with the individuals shown in your uploaded images. Motion, lens work, cutting and sound are left as they were, and unless you say otherwise each photo inherits a part in left-to-right order across every shot that part appears in.

2

What length of source video is accepted?

Five to thirty seconds in total, with no single shot longer than fifteen, so trim or split longer material first. Whatever you submit comes back at the same duration.

3

How many people can be replaced, and in which order?

Up to four, one image per person, assigned by default to the most prominent on-screen parts in left-to-right sequence. A written instruction such as 'the man on the left becomes person 2' overrides that arrangement.

4

Which reference photos give the best results?

One crisp, front-on, well-lit image per individual. A half-body frame transfers hair and garments more reliably than a close crop. Steer clear of sunglasses, hats, hands covering the face, group shots, and anything low-resolution or heavily filtered.

5

Is 768p or 1080p the right choice?

Run the 768p pass first to confirm the replacement looks right, then finalise in 1080p. Cost is driven mainly by clip length rather than by resolution on its own.

6

When is this the wrong tool?

Look elsewhere if you need fresh movement, new camera work or a different setting. Quality also drops with crowded scenes, tiny or distant faces, rapid action, or subjects hidden after hard cuts — and in long takes or profile turns a likeness may drift back toward the original performer.
