Why creators choose MiniMax H3 Max Recast

You have a performance you like, with the wrong people in it. Recast keeps everything about the video except who is in it: the movement, the gestures, the camera, the cuts and the sound. Give it the video and one photo of each new person, and it puts them in.

Keeps the original performance

Recast reads motion from the video itself, so a dance, a walk-and-talk or a product demo keeps its timing and body language. The camera moves the way it did, and cuts land where they did.

Tracks each person across cuts

Each new person replaces the same original person in every shot they appear in, so a multi-shot clip stays consistent without a separate pass per shot.

Up to four people in one pass

Swap a whole group at once. Photos replace the main people from left to right, or a one-line prompt says who becomes whom.

Keeps the soundtrack

The returned video carries the original audio, so dialogue, music and ambience stay in sync with the picture.

How to use MiniMax H3 Max Recast in Craze

1. Upload the video you want to recast. Craze cuts anything over 30 seconds into clips and recasts each.
2. Ask Craze to swap the people in it, or to have your character perform it. Share a photo of each new person, or describe them.
3. Craze picks each person's reference. A photo that shows everything the video shows is used as it is. A headshot for a full-body video, or a person you only described, gets a character sheet first, which you review.
4. Choose a resolution and Craze runs the recast.
5. Review the result in the editor.

You can also run it yourself from the Models panel: choose Motion transfer, pick MiniMax H3 Max Recast, add the video and a picture for each person, and generate.

MiniMax H3 Max Recast pricing

Recast is priced by the length of your video at $0.316 per second of source video, at the resolution you pick. The photos are included, so swapping four people costs the same as swapping one.

MiniMax H3 Max Recast vs. other motion transfer models

Kling 3 Standard animates one picture of one character with a video's motion, building the shot from that picture, for well under Recast's price. Recast works the other way round: it keeps the original video's shot and swaps the people in it, up to four at a time, and it reads each photo or character sheet as who the person is rather than as the frame to animate.
