Hailuo 2.3

Hailuo 2.3 by MiniMax turns a reference image into a high-fidelity AI video with realistic motion, facial micro-expressions, and a range of art styles. It comes in two tiers: Standard, and Pro with enhanced quality, cinematic realism, and more detailed motion. Both generate 6- or 10-second clips at 768p or 1080p (10 seconds at 768p only).

Image-to-Video
Upload one reference image and describe the motion — Hailuo 2.3 animates it into a video. A reference image is required.
Realistic Motion & Micro-Expressions
Lifelike human motion and facial micro-expressions — gestures, emotions, and natural character movement.
Standard & Pro Tiers
Standard for high-fidelity video with realistic motion; Pro for enhanced quality, cinematic realism, and more detailed motion. Both offer 768p and 1080p.
Camera & Style Control
