Hailuo 2.3 — MiniMax's video model for high-dynamic motion and camera work

Hailuo 2.3

What is Hailuo 2.3?

Hailuo 2.3 is MiniMax's high-dynamic-motion tier within the Hailuo line. Vendor and public materials emphasize body performance, camera-move tracking, and range of motion, suited to action-led ads, sports-style shots, and shorts that need clear subject displacement. Clips typically run 6 or 10 seconds, with resolution commonly 768p or 1080p, and support both text-to-video and image-to-video. Compared with the earlier Hailuo 02, motion performance and stability continue to improve. Select Hailuo 2.3 in the iMini video workspace to use it.

High-dynamic motion performance

More willing to commit to running, jumping, airborne motion, tracking shots, and clear displacement. For action-led ads, sports trailers, and shots that need real range of motion, it lands closer to intent in one pass than more static-leaning tiers.

Steadier camera tracking

Spell out push, pull, pan, and subject direction in the prompt, and the camera holds onto the subject more reliably. Suited to tracking shots, orbits, and deliverables that need real camera movement.

Text-to-video and image-to-video, either way

Works from a pure text take or a first-frame image. When you already have an action storyboard still, image-to-video better constrains the starting pose and framing, and you layer motion description on top.

How it splits with Fast / 02

For faster iteration, compare Hailuo 2.3 Fast; if you're still on an older workflow, compare Hailuo 02. For finished-clip-level motion performance, prefer 2.3.

Choosing vs Kling 3.0 and Seedance 2.5

All three can produce shorts. The differences come down to motion orientation, clip length, reference control, and audio-video capability.

Choose Hailuo 2.3 when…

The deliverable depends on high-dynamic displacement and tracking camera work, and a 6–10s clip length is enough.

Choose Kling 3.0 when…

You need complex human motion, ensemble scenes, or multilingual dialogue with A/V sync.

Choose Seedance 2.5 when…

You need a longer single pass, a larger reference budget, and to generate brand storytelling in one go.

Use Hailuo 2.3 on iMini

Three steps from opening the workspace to exporting a finished clip.

01

Open the video workspace

Go to iMini video creation and select Hailuo 2.3.

02

Prompt or upload references

Spell out subject action, camera work, and duration; start from image-to-video if you already have an action storyboard still.

03

Generate and export

Export once range of motion and tracking meet the bar. If motion falls short, revise the action description or swap references first.
