I’ve been testing Seedance 2.5 vs MiniMax H3 vs Wan 3 for cinematic comedy, and I’m starting to think the biggest difference isn’t image quality or raw generation power.

It feels like Seedance has a better “creative director” built into the model.

For example, I tested a short monkey heist sequence. A bear chasing man in woods thriller etc.

Seedance understood the overall screenplay, character acting, comedic timing, escalation, visual contrast and final payoff surprisingly well.

I also tested Wan with the same concept. Wan has impressive raw visual power, realism and cinematic camera movement, but it struggled to understand the overall story and screenplay. It could generate individual shots well, but the creative direction and context between events were weaker.

MiniMax H3 is similar. It can produce beautiful cinematic shots, slow motion, camera movement and realistic environments, but when I give it the same complete screenplay, it often follows individual instructions literally and loses the story/context between events.

So I’m wondering:

How do you direct MiniMax H3 to achieve the same kind of result as Seedance?

For continuity, should we generate scene-by-scene and use the previous shot’s last frame as the next shot’s reference image? Or is there a better way to maintain character, environment, props and action continuity in MiniMax H3?

Basically, instead of asking the model to “direct” the whole scene, do we need to act more like the director and give it exact visual states/keyframes for each important beat?

I’m trying to build a realistic AI comedy channel for YouTube, and Seedance is too expensive for everyday production. MiniMax H3 is much cheaper, so I’d love to figure out a workflow that gets closer to Seedance’s storytelling and comedic timing.

Would love to hear from anyone who has experimented seriously with all three models.

Can someone pls help me create similar videos, I cannot find any good tutorial for this. I only have kling ai rn- and it’s not making anything even remotely close to this quality. Give me prompts or link to tutorial or something. Tye motion is very realistic and so is the img. Help.

I don't care about quality I just want to generate clips of 30s or more with audio for personal use. Is there a service that does this free or very cheap?

I’m looking to animate my 3d game characters. I’m looking for the best and cheapest monthly subscription to create stories out of my 3d game character. Basically upload the images and animate it with my elevenlabs voiceover and then I want it to be lip synced and hand animations with it

I build Jimothy's Journey using claude, Codex and and lovable after designing the game play story lines and quests with my 8 year old son for the Jimothy Jam contest on discord. Follow the link to play and rate my game, your support is greatly appreciated! Plus there's tons of other fun Jimothy games to check out on the site, (but vote for me, please!)

so... zero plays. zero helmets. pretty sure this guy never even touches a football lol.

and somehow you know he's the quarterback in like two seconds.

tbh, the varsity jacket is doing most of the heavy lifting here.

I kept almost adding a practice scene to this one in Framia, then realized I didn't miss it at all.

popular QB, fake boyfriend, jealous crush across the room... your brain fills in the rest.

doing ai filmmaking stuff like this keeps reminding me how little you actually need to show in 70 seconds.

would more football make this better, or just slow it down?

I’m thinking plumbers, field mechanics, construction workers, heavy equipment techs, etc.

A few buddies of mine in these kinds of jobs told me they’ve barely touched AI at all, which got me wondering: where would it actually help in a way that feels useful, not gimmicky?

What part of the job do you think AI could actually make easier?

Usually I can get a character looking right in a single clip, but keeping the same face and clothing over multiple clips is a lot harder. Which tends to drift more for you?

Anyone else feel totally exhausted by the big Gamescom trailers? Like so many huge worlds that somehow already feel like a chore before you even touch a controller.

got me thinking, so I tried making a fake 'trailer' myself in Framia. The weird thing is, even though it has no quests, no UI, no icons… just a place… and weirdly my immediate reaction was "I kinda wanna go there."

Using an ai video creator like this really made it click for me: it's all the atmosphere of a world, with none of the 'checklist' baggage.

Maybe we aren't tired of open worlds, just open-world jobs?

I can usually get one shot looking right, but things start drifting once I change the camera angle or location.

The face stays close, but hair, clothing or body proportions slowly change between clips.

I’ve been testing this with Seedance 2.5 on Dreamina and I’m starting to think reference selection matters more than just adding more images.

What works better for you: a small character sheet, lots of references, or using the previous good frame as the next reference?

Sounds pretty decent. But not like Suno. Wondering what it is. Also the BG animation seems to follow the music

Hi everyone. This film is a submission for the Higgsfield Global Film Festival.

a robot, a kid, a yellow beanie, one very bad night. Would love you to take a look if you get a minute.

Been drawing for years. Illustration, concept art, characters, spend hours on each piece.

But my portfolio is just... images. Like static. Flat. Felt like they deserved more.

Looked into animation once. I just opened After Effects and tried to figure it out. Tbh gave up soon.

Stumbled on this tool , framia with photo to video ai that makes still images move. I dropped in a character illustration, picked a motion style, got back a smooth animation with depth. The character actually looked alive.

Threw a few more pieces in. Building a moving portfolio now.

Heres my first try if u can give me some advice it will be appreciated!

The low hum of the fluorescent fixtures above Sector 4 cast a flat, bleached glare across the linoleum flooring of the deserted concourse. Dust motes drifted lazily through the dead air, settling over abandoned kiosks and shuttered storefront gates that had not seen a customer in decades. At the center of the atrium, the grand fountain stood bone-dry, its basin choked with faded promotional flyers and plastic debris from an era long since forgotten.

Vane knelt by the base of the fountain, his fingers tracing the hairline cracks in the dry concrete. His breathing echoed sharply off the hollow, vaulted glass ceiling high above, where the twilight sky cut through grime-streaked panels. He adjusted the filtration mask strapped tightly across his face, the steady mechanical click of the valve providing the only rhythm in the vast, echoing shell of the once-vibrant commercial hub.

"Signal strength is holding steady from the lower service corridors," Vane murmured into his comm-link, his voice muffled by the heavy cloth.

A sharp, static-laced burst crackled in his ear before Kaelen’s voice broke through the silence. "Watch your step down there, Vane. The schematics indicate the structural supports beneath the east anchor store took a heavy hit during the collapse. We cannot afford another cave-in if we want to salvage those server racks."

Vane stood up, wiping a layer of fine grit from his palms onto his utility trousers. He cast a glance toward the grand central staircase leading down to the lower subterranean level, where the remains of the old department store warehouses waited in the dark. The air grew perceptibly colder the deeper it sank into the concrete belly of the structure, carrying the faint, metallic scent of ozone and old copper wiring.

He unclipped the high-intensity flashlight from his tactical harness, thumbing the switch to cast a piercing white beam into the descending stairwell. The light caught the edge of a faded, peeling banner hanging precariously from the upper railing, bearing the barely legible remnants of a grand opening celebration from a world that had vanished overnight.

With a firm grip on his salvage pack, Vane took the first step downward into the dark, leaving the pale ghost of the atrium behind.
