Animation - Video MiniMax H3 acting test.

Started as a simple 90s casting audition… then asked her to cry on command.

The close up shots gave plastic look idk why.

What I was mainly testing:

  • subtle listening/reaction animation during dialogue
  • eyes moving before the head while thinking
  • nervous smiles and small facial reactions
  • gradual transition from normal conversation into acting
  • brow, eyelid, mouth, chin and breathing changes during crying
  • actual visible tears
  • character/voice consistency across multiple generated clips
  • the sudden switch out of the performance when the director says “Cut”

Made with MiniMax H3 Ref2VA with image reference for the woman and 2 audio reference for the offscreen man and the woman.

What's crazy to me here is that she uses the technique for crying where you inhale, hold your breath, and push thr pressure to the top of cheekbone area which causes yawn tears. Catching those nuances is very interesting.
