Before & after

The old way

With AI

Use MiniMax M3 or M2.7 to generate high-quality text-to-image or video prompts. This AI-to-AI handoff takes about 2-3 minutes.

I want to use Hailuo AI to create a video. Please write a highly detailed, cinematic prompt for a [DESCRIBE YOUR SCENE, E.G., CYBERPUNK STREET IN RAIN]. Include specific camera movements, lighting details, and atmospheric descriptions.

The article highlights various models (M3, M2.7) and specialized video tools like Hailuo AI that bridge the gap between imagination and production. By using the LLM to 'direct' the video model, you get more cinematic results.
