Meltdown AI Video Effect

Like a candle in the sun, the person starts to melt from the top down into glossy, colorful liquid. The liquid slides downward and pools on the ground in a playful cartoon way. By the last second only a shiny, colorful puddle remains where they stood. The tone is silly and bright, not scary.

In our test runs on MiniMax H3, a white-bearded man in round sunglasses and a yellow raincoat on a pastel-coloured cobbled street sprouted a lit candle wick on his head and began melting from the top down in rainbow wax at second one, sank lower and lower into a spreading puddle, and ended as a glossy multicoloured pool with a tiny flame. In a second run, a curly-haired woman in white cat-eye sunglasses, a lilac glossy raincoat and white rain boots on a pastel street got a candle flame on her head at half a second, was dripping rainbow wax by second two, shrank into a melting candle by second four and ended as a pastel puddle on the pavement.

Works best on a full-body or three-quarter photo with a visible ground, so the puddle has somewhere to collect. Plain floors keep the puddle readable. The person is entirely replaced by the puddle by the end, so it is a comic exit, and their likeness is stylized into liquid while it happens.

It runs on MiniMax H3 for five seconds by default, and H3 itself goes up to 15 seconds and 2K if you want more. Studio also lets you move the same prompt to another model before you generate, such as Seedance 2.0 or Wan 3.0, and the price on the Generate button updates with every change. Our samples were all made on MiniMax H3, so other models will read the prompt in their own way.

Good for jokes, reactions, party content and playful transitions. Use it as a punchline at the end of a clip.

Change "glossy, colorful liquid" to "glossy pink liquid" for a single-color melt, or change "playful cartoon way" to "slow, dramatic way" for a less silly feel.
