Question 1

Is SelfScene the "MiniMax H3 Recast" model?

Accepted Answer

No. MiniMax H3 Recast is a third-party video-to-video model that replaces the people in an existing clip. SelfScene does not offer it and is not affiliated with MiniMax: we only generate new videos from your own photos and a text description.

Question 2

Does this site replace people in my video?

Accepted Answer

No. Swapping a real person in real footage is identity replacement, so we don't offer it. Here you describe a scene and generate a brand-new clip of it from your own photo.

Question 3

How is that different from face swap?

Accepted Answer

Face swap pastes a face onto existing footage. We never edit or reuse your footage: Video to Prompt only reads the clip into text, and Image to Video generates a completely new clip from your photo and that text.

Question 4

Is Video to Prompt free?

Accepted Answer

It will be free for signed-in users, with a daily allowance. It is completing verification and opens soon; Image to Video is available now.

Question 5

Whose photos can I use?

Accepted Answer

Your own, or photos of adults who explicitly agreed. No celebrities or public figures, and no intimate, sexual or deceptive scenes, even with consent.

Question 6

How much does a video cost?

Accepted Answer

Image to Video uses 10 credits per second at 480p and 12 at 768p, so a 5-second 768p clip is 60 credits. Purchases open after payment setup is complete.

Question 7

Which AI models do you use? Is this an official model website?

Accepted Answer

SelfScene is our own independent product. Image to Video runs on the MiniMax H3 reference-to-video model through fal, and Video to Prompt uses Google Gemini. We are not affiliated with, endorsed or sponsored by MiniMax, fal or Google; their names are used only to describe the underlying technology.
