## What Hailuo 3 Max is for

Max is the engine for animating stills on a Hobby budget. Give it a first and a last frame and it moves between them — a product turning to face the camera, a character crossing a room, a sky going from dusk to night — in any of six formats, cinematic 21:9 included.

It is also a quick way to find a Hailuo shot: block the camera move and the timing here, then render the keeper on Hailuo 3 at 2K, with sound and your cast.

## How to prompt it

- With frames, describe only the motion between them — the frames already fix the subject, the wardrobe and the set.
- Without frames, your cast and elements ride as text: describe people concretely, the way they should look.
- Name the camera move — crane up, whip pan, slow dolly — or pick one of the director's rack's 24 moves.
- Max renders picture only, so plan the sound elsewhere: a voice-over, music in the edit, or an engine with a soundtrack.
- There is no seed: batch up to 4 takes and keep the best.

## Where it sits in the lineup

Hailuo 3, on Creator, is the full model: 2K, sound, three subject references and a voice sample. On the Hobby plan, pick Max for Hailuo motion between two frames, and Kling 3.0 or Seedance 2.0 Fast when your cast's pictures or sound matter.

## Starting points

- **Dusk to night skyline** — A city skyline seen from a hill as dusk turns to night, windows lighting up one by one, clouds drifting fast overhead, locked-off wide shot, cinematic widescreen
- **Perfume bottle turn** — A glass perfume bottle on a black plinth slowly rotating to face the camera, a single hard key light sliding across the glass, smoke drifting behind, macro lens
- **Red coat hallway** — A woman in a red coat walks down a long marble hallway toward the camera, sunlight falling through tall windows in stripes across her path, slow dolly back ahead of her

## FAQ

### Hailuo 3 Max or Hailuo 3?

Max is the fast tier: 480p or 768p, no reference pictures and no soundtrack, from Hobby. Hailuo 3 renders 2K with sound, three subject references and a voice sample, from Creator. Both take first and last frames and run 5 to 15 seconds.

### Can I use my cast with Hailuo 3 Max?

Yes, as text: Max reads no reference pictures, so your cast's descriptions are written into the prompt. For an exact face, start the clip from a frame of that character.

### Can Hailuo 3 Max render mature content?

No. Hailuo is moderated upstream and serves SFW work only. Mature fiction between adult characters renders on Motion One, eroq's own uncensored engine.
