PixTV can already use MiniMax H3 Image for 4K rendering. As the official partner site of MiniMax, it is one of the first products to plug into this model.

For people who make AI short plays and animated short films, the significance of this thing lies in the first frame.

The quality of Tusheng videos depends largely on the first frame. The first frame is blurry, and every subsequent frame moves based on the blur; the character's face shape and clothing details in the first frame are wrong, and the entire video has to be redone. H3 Image directly outputs 4096×4096 images, and the clarity and details of the first frame are guaranteed.

The second use is role consistency. H3 Image supports up to 16 reference images. When making a short play, the protagonist's front face, side face, whole body, and several sets of costumes can be fed in together. When generating storyboards for different scenes, it is easier for the character to remain the same person. There is content such as "Multiple Views of Costume Character Setting Pictures" in the works section of the PixTV homepage, which is exactly how it is used.

PixTV itself is a video creation platform with unlimited canvas and AI storyboarding functions. Video models are also available such as MiniMax H3, Keling, Seedance, etc. Pictures and videos are on the same canvas, and the process can be as follows:

  1. Use H3 Image to create character setting pictures and key scene pictures
  2. Arranged by storyboard on canvas
  3. Select a video model and generate shots from the storyboards one by one.
  4. For the shots that need to be changed, go back to the picture step and redo them separately.

In the past, these steps often required transferring files between three or four websites. If the image size and format were inconsistent, they had to be adjusted manually.

As a reminder, the first frame of 4K does not mean that the video is also 4K. The output resolution of the video is determined by the video model you choose. The first frame of high definition brings more stable details, not a larger video size.

If you want to see the effect, you can go directly to PixTV to create a new canvas for testing. For e-commerce product images, PixPix, another official partner site of MiniMax, also has access to H3 Image 4K. The site contains PixTV entries, you can read the introduction first.
