HeyGen Video 1

by HeyGen

HeyGen Video 1 is HeyGen's general video model, built on MiniMax H3 and post-trained by HeyGen. It renders clips of 5 to 30 seconds from a text prompt, or animates a still image used as the first frame, and generates the soundtrack with the picture. It renders at 480p, 768p, 1080p or 2K, in six aspect ratios for text to video; with an image the frame follows the image. A seed makes a render repeatable. It suits b-roll, product shots and social clips, and pairs with Avatar IV when a presenter video needs cutaways.
