36-140Your creative workflow should not stall waiting for a single video generation to finish. Hailuo v2.3 on YouArt gives you two generation paths in one model: Fast mode for quick animated drafts from a first-frame image, and Pro mode for the highest-quality output at 768p or 1080p. Whether you are testing a product concept or refining a scene for a final cut, you can choose the generation speed that matches the moment.
Overview: What Hailuo v2.3 Does
Hailuo v2.3 is a YouArt video model from MiniMax with enhanced prompt optimization for text-to-video and image-to-video generation. It is built for creators who need flexibility in both output quality and generation speed. Pro mode delivers the highest-quality output at 768p or 1080p resolution. Fast mode requires a first-frame image and produces animated results more quickly, making it a practical option for rapid iteration and concept testing. Both modes accept a text prompt to guide the scene, action, and camera behavior.

Best Use Cases
Rapid Concept Testing
Use Hailuo v2.3 Fast mode to quickly animate a product image or a character reference into a short clip. Because Fast mode requires a first-frame image, it is well-suited for workflows where the opening composition is already defined and the goal is to see the scene in motion before committing to a full Pro-quality generation.
High-Quality Social and Marketing Videos
Switch to Pro mode when the output needs to meet a higher quality bar for social publishing, client review, or campaign materials. Write a detailed prompt describing the subject, the environment, the camera movement, and the intended mood. The model's prompt optimization helps translate a clear description into a coherent, polished clip at 768p or 1080p.
Animated Product and Lifestyle Shots
For ecommerce and product marketing teams, Hailuo v2.3 is a practical tool for animating a product still into a short lifestyle clip. Upload the product image as the first frame, describe the environment and the camera behavior, and generate a draft that communicates the product in context. Fast mode gives a quick first look; Pro mode delivers the version ready for review.
How to Use Hailuo v2.3 on YouArt
Hailuo v2.3 is available directly in the YouArt model interface. Decide whether you need a quick animated draft or a high-quality output, then choose the corresponding mode. A useful prompt names the subject, the visible action, the camera behavior, and the setting.
- Open the model. Navigate to the Hailuo v2.3 page in YouArt and sign in if the workspace asks you to.
- Select the mode. Choose Fast mode for a quicker result from a first-frame image, or Pro mode for highest-quality output from text or image.
- Add the input. For Fast mode, upload a first-frame image. For Pro mode, enter a text prompt and optionally add a first-frame image.
- Set the resolution. Select 768p or 1080p depending on the quality level the workflow needs.
- Generate and review. Create the draft, evaluate the motion and composition, then refine the prompt or switch modes for the next iteration.
Inputs & Outputs
Hailuo v2.3 accepts a text prompt and up to one first-frame image. Fast mode requires the first-frame image; Pro mode accepts text alone or text with an image. Output is a video clip at 768p or 1080p resolution.

Prompt and Usage Examples
The most effective Hailuo v2.3 prompts describe the subject, the environment, and the camera movement clearly. For Fast mode, let the first-frame image carry the composition and use the prompt to direct the motion and the atmosphere.
Example 1: Fast Mode Product Animation
Input: First-frame image of a watch on a dark leather surface, plus text.
Prompt: The camera slowly orbits the watch as warm spotlight lighting catches the metal case and the dial details. The motion is smooth and continuous.
Why this fits: The first-frame image establishes the product and the initial composition. The prompt directs the camera movement and the lighting behavior, which is all Fast mode needs to produce a coherent animated draft.
Example 2: Pro Mode Lifestyle Scene
Input: Text prompt.
Prompt: A person walks along a quiet coastal path at golden hour. The camera tracks alongside at a low angle, showing the path, the sea, and the warm light on the subject's face. The motion is steady and cinematic.
Why this fits: This prompt works well in Pro mode because it describes a complete scene with a clear subject, environment, camera angle, and lighting condition. No reference image is needed when the scene can be fully described in text.
Example 3: Pro Mode Social Video Hook
Input: Text prompt.
Prompt: In a 9:16 frame, a barista places a latte on a wooden café table. The camera holds steady as steam rises from the cup. The morning light from a nearby window catches the surface of the drink.
Why this fits: The portrait canvas and the focused single-moment action make this a practical social-video hook. The prompt specifies the camera behavior, the lighting, and the subject clearly enough for the model's prompt optimization to produce a coherent result.
Tips & Limitations
- Use Fast mode when you already have a first-frame image and need a quick animated draft. It is the faster path to a moving reference.
- Use Pro mode when the scene needs to be built entirely from text, or when the output quality needs to meet a higher bar for client review or publishing.
- Specify the camera behavior in the prompt. Terms like 'orbits,' 'tracks alongside,' or 'holds steady' give the model clear motion instructions.
- Match the resolution to the use. A 768p draft is sufficient for concept review; switch to 1080p when the output is intended for final review or publishing.
- Limitation: Fast mode requires a first-frame image. If you do not have a reference image, use Pro mode with a text prompt instead.
- Limitation: The model accepts up to one image input. If you need start-and-end-frame control, consider Kling v3.0 or Seedance 2.0, both of which support two image inputs.

Workflow Context
Hailuo v2.3 fits well into a two-stage creative workflow: use Fast mode to generate a quick animated draft from a reference image, evaluate the motion and composition, then switch to Pro mode for the final output. Use the AI video workflow builder to organize the handoff between these stages.
For ecommerce and product marketing teams, Hailuo v2.3 is a practical starting point for an AI ecommerce product video workflow. Generate a Fast-mode draft to confirm the concept, then produce the Pro-mode version for the campaign review. For social-first campaigns, the model's portrait canvas support makes it a natural fit for an AI UGC ad video workflow.
