Prompt
Every MiniMax H3 workflow starts with a written prompt, even when an image or reference is added. The prompt carries the action, camera direction, and constraints that a source file cannot.

MiniMax H3 Workflow
MiniMax H3 Workflow covers every way to turn a prompt, image, or reference set into a finished video. This page maps the online text-to-video, image-to-video, and reference-to-video paths, explains where ComfyUI and LoRA fit, and helps you pick the right route.
Definition
MiniMax H3 Workflow Explained
A MiniMax H3 workflow is the path from an idea to a finished video: what you provide as input, what settings you choose, and how the result gets back to you.
On this site, that workflow is entirely online: text, image, and reference inputs are submitted through a live generator, tracked as an asynchronous task, and returned as a downloadable video with a visible credit cost. There is no separate installation step and no local rendering queue to manage.
People searching MiniMax H3 Workflow are sometimes comparing this online path against a local, node-based setup such as ComfyUI, or asking how LoRA adaptation fits in. Both are covered further down this page, alongside the three online routes that make up the core generator.
Online workflow
Online MiniMax H3 Workflow
Every online MiniMax H3 workflow, regardless of input type, follows the same five steps.
Input
Choose whether the job starts from text alone, an uploaded image, or a combination of reference image, video, and audio sources.
Settings
Duration, resolution, and aspect ratio are set before generation. The live generator shows exactly what each model supports, so no workflow step relies on guessing an unavailable option.
Generation
The task runs asynchronously. Status is tracked until the provider returns a result, so a slow response does not look like a broken page.
Video
The finished clip is reviewable and downloadable, with the option to keep iterating from the same workflow if the direction needs a second pass.

Input routes
The Three Online MiniMax H3 Workflows
MiniMax H3 Text-to-Video Workflow
Start from a written prompt only. This workflow suits concept testing, campaign variations, and any job without an existing source image.
Open text-to-video →MiniMax H3 Image-to-Video Workflow
Upload one image and describe the motion. Appearance and composition come from the source; the prompt focuses on camera and movement.
Open image-to-video →MiniMax H3 Reference-to-Video Workflow
Combine image, video, and audio references in one generation, assigning identity, motion, and timing roles to each source.
Open reference-to-video →Ecosystem
MiniMax H3 ComfyUI Workflow
MiniMax H3 ComfyUI Workflow is a common search phrase for a local, node-based generation path, separate from the online generator described above.
A ComfyUI workflow runs on your own hardware through a node graph, with its own model files, VRAM requirements, and setup steps. This site does not host or replicate that environment; the online generator above is a different, browser-based path to the same underlying model.
If you are comparing the two, the practical difference is setup cost versus control: ComfyUI workflows require local installation and maintenance in exchange for node-level control, while the online workflow trades that control for immediate access with no setup.
Ecosystem
MiniMax H3 LoRA Workflow
MiniMax H3 LoRA Workflow searches are usually about adapting a model toward a specific subject or style through local training.
A LoRA-based workflow is not part of the online generator on this site today. It typically involves preparing training data, running a local or cloud training job, and loading the resulting adapter into a compatible pipeline such as ComfyUI.
For what MiniMax H3 LoRA covers in more detail, including training and requirements questions, see the dedicated LoRA page.

Online vs Local MiniMax H3 Workflow
| Aspect | Online MiniMax H3 Workflow | Local ComfyUI or LoRA Workflow |
|---|---|---|
| Setup | None; open the generator in a browser | Local install, model files, and dependencies |
| Hardware | Not required on your device | GPU and VRAM requirements apply |
| Inputs | Text, image, and reference routes | Node graph with model, LoRA, and control inputs |
| Cost model | Per-generation credits, shown before submission | Hardware and time cost, plus any paid components |
| Availability here | Live and verified | Not hosted on this site |
Decision guide
Which MiniMax H3 Workflow Should You Use?
No source material yet
Use the text-to-video workflow to test a concept before committing to an image or reference set.
One approved image
Use the image-to-video workflow when composition and identity are already settled and only motion needs direction.
Multiple sources to combine
Use the reference-to-video workflow when identity, movement, and timing each need to come from a different asset.
Camera-led shots
Any of the three online workflows accepts MiniMax H3 Director-style camera prompting; it is a prompting technique, not a separate route.
Local, node-based pipelines
A ComfyUI-based workflow is a separate, self-hosted path with its own requirements, not something this site's online generator replicates directly.
Custom-trained adaptation
A LoRA-based workflow targets a specific subject or style through local training and is not part of the online generator today.
FAQ
MiniMax H3 Workflow FAQ
What is the MiniMax H3 Workflow?
MiniMax H3 Workflow refers to the sequence of steps used to turn a prompt, image, or reference set into a finished video. On this site, that means the online text-to-video, image-to-video, and reference-to-video paths, each with the same prompt, settings, generation, and result steps.
Which MiniMax H3 workflow should I use?
Use text-to-video with no source material, image-to-video with one approved image, and reference-to-video when identity, motion, and timing each need a different source. All three share the same online generator and credit system.
Is there a MiniMax H3 ComfyUI workflow?
ComfyUI workflows are a separate, self-hosted, node-based path with their own setup requirements. This site's generator does not run inside ComfyUI; it is an independent online workflow.
Is there a MiniMax H3 LoRA workflow?
LoRA-based workflows involve local training and are not part of the online generator on this site today. See the LoRA page for what the term covers and the closest available online option.
Do the online workflows cost different amounts?
Each model shows a live credit estimate based on duration, resolution, and settings before you generate, so the actual cost is visible in the workflow itself rather than fixed on this page.
Can I switch workflows mid-project?
Yes. A prompt tested in text-to-video can move to image-to-video once a frame is approved, and to reference-to-video when additional sources are needed. Settings do not carry over automatically, so review them at each step.
