480p (default), 540p, 768p or 1080p. Higher tiers cost more per second; the shape always follows your photo.
Durationaffects price
From 3 to 6 seconds (default 3). Three seconds is one clean, frozen turn; longer clips orbit more slowly and people may start to move. Billed per second. no lower than 3 · no higher than 6

One photo in, a full 360° camera orbit around a frozen moment out

Upload a photo and pick a length. Time stops in your picture and the camera circles the scene once, landing back on the frame it started from, so the clip loops. The orbit instruction is built in: there is no prompt to write.

Getting a clean orbit from MiniMax H3 360 Orbit

  • Freeze something in the air

    Hair in the wind, a flared skirt, petals or drops of water: suspended details are what make a frozen-time orbit read at once.

  • Leave room around the subject

    Full body, centred, with some floor and background visible. In a crowded orchard, tree trunks briefly passed in front of the subject on the far side of the turn.

  • Three seconds holds still

    At three seconds people, hair and petals held still for the whole turn. At six the turn is slower and a dancing couple began to drift out of their pose.

  • The back is invented

    The sides and back of the scene are generated from your photo, so details it doesn't show, such as the back of an outfit, can differ from the real thing.

    Bullet time from one photo

    A couple caught mid-spin on a lit carousel, the skirt flared, with the camera circling them: the frozen-moment look without a camera rig.

  • An outfit from every side

    An outfit from every side

    One photo of a coral slip dress in an orchard becomes a turnaround, back, profile and front, with the fabric held as it fell.

  • Clips that repeat without a jump

    Clips that repeat without a jump

    Because the orbit lands on its first frame, a petal toss in a domed bathhouse loops seamlessly on a page or in a feed.

How to call MiniMax H3 360 Orbit

  1. Pick a photo with room around the subject

    Full body and centred, with something suspended in the air if you can. Tight crops leave the model guessing what the back of the scene looks like.

  2. Start at three seconds and 480p

    Check the turn cheaply, then re-run the keeper at 768p or 1080p with the same seed.

  3. Create the task and loop the result

    The call is asynchronous: poll it or take a callback. The MP4's last frame matches its first, so it plays as a loop.

Real results from our test runs

  • Orchard, three seconds

    One photo of a woman in a coral slip dress with her hair blown sideways: front, profile, back and front again, with her hair and the petals held in the air. Trunks pass in front of her for a moment on the far side.

Where it fits

360 Orbit is a one-input effect. To animate a photo with a story of its own, use MiniMax H3 or MiniMax H3 LoRA; to recast a person in footage you already have, MiniMax H3 Character Swap. Everyone in your photo must be an adult, and you need the right to use any real person's likeness.
