GPT-6 Astra + MiniMax H3
Created the kinetic typography effect in Blender using Astra, then used the resulting video as a reference in MiniMax H3 to restyle it.
If you're curious, here's the MiniMax H3 prompt:
Restyle @[video1], the supplied grayscale kinetic typography animation, into a finished, vibrant 15-second 16:9 motion-design film. Use it as the sole reference for typography geometry, animation, composition, camera movement and editing. Replace the grayscale materials and lighting with the treatments below, and create original music and synchronized sound effects.
Preserve the six words exactly, in this order: BREAK / EVERY / RULE / CREATE / PURE / MAGIC. Keep each word in its original 2.5-second section, with its own recognizable font, letter shapes, cutouts and proportions. Inherit the reference's entrances, collisions, elastic deformation, secondary rebounds, connected folds, sliding slices, spiral paths, exits and camera impulses. Preserve the large ! ? + * # = > symbols, their trajectories, depth layers and foreground passes. Keep the central word legible when it resolves. Carry the source choreography through the final MAGIC pose.
Give the sequence bold, carefully separated colors, rich material detail, directional studio lighting, convincing contact shadows and controlled reflections. Each section has its own material identity within one energetic graphic world. Enhance the existing backgrounds with the assigned palette, subtle texture and depth. Use restrained highlight bloom and directional motion blur on fast travel while keeping the resolved letter edges crisp. Preserve the source framing and cut rhythm.
0-2.5s, BREAK: Distressed scarlet-red painted letters against a deep charcoal background. Bright acid-yellow exclamation marks and punctuation explode around the red word. Preserve the rough type contours and dimensional sides. Raking light catches the paint texture; the existing impacts receive brief lighting accents. Dry heavy impacts, a low bass punch and fast outward whooshes follow the assembly and recoil.
2.5-5s, EVERY: Glossy cobalt-blue rubber letters against a warm off-white field, with coral question marks and plus signs. Broad soft reflections travel across the stretching surfaces. Keep the rubber wave and bouncing symbols from the reference. Add tightly synchronized elastic boings, rubber snaps and airy swishes, integrated into the rhythm.
5-7.5s, RULE: Brushed metallic letter faces on dark graphite carriages, with signal-orange pistons and orange punctuation accents. Retain the font's distinctive geometric cutouts. Warm orange edge light separates the machinery from the textured graphite setting. Give the opposing block collisions sharp metallic clacks, short low thuds and small ricochet ticks.
7.5-10s, CREATE: Warm cream paper leaves with deep petrol-blue lettering, coral punctuation and a dark petrol backdrop. Fine paper fibers and grazing light reveal every connected crease. Preserve the opening, traveling refold and spring-back. Add crisp paper flicks, folding rustles and light percussive pops as the symbols leave the folds.
10-12.5s, PURE: Acid-yellow enamel backing strips with glossy black condensed letters and a restrained graphite surround. Preserve the three actual horizontal text slices, opposing slide directions, secondary register slip and clean realignment. Specular streaks slide across the enamel without hiding the seams. Use precise sliding swishes and satisfying mechanical clicks at each registration.
12.5-15s, MAGIC: A rich violet background, pearlescent letter faces with turquoise edge reflections, and luminous turquoise and violet punctuation. Keep the source's orbital slingshot and outward symbol recoil; subtle iridescence shifts with the existing motion. Add a rising spiral whoosh and bright crystalline ticks, ending with a short shimmering chime while MAGIC remains readable and the surrounding symbols continue their source motion.
Create one continuous original instrumental electronic breakbeat across all six sections: punchy kick and snare, rapid hi-hats, syncopated synth bass and compact rising accents. Match strong musical accents to the existing word changes and impacts. Keep the mix energetic and clean, with distinct foreground effects and stereo movement following the symbols. Resolve the music with a decisive final accent and a short chime tail within the 15-second ending. No vocals, spoken words or subtitles. Add no extra words, logos or watermarks.

AI content creation should make things easier, not more complicated, and MiniMax Design really gets that
It saves me so much time and effort, and somehow it’s still finding ways to surprise me
I already thought it worked really well with MiniMax H3
But then MiniMax H3 Max Turbo showed up…
And I was like, wait, what?!
The speed is actually kind of crazy
A 15s video can be generated in around 20s
And then I saw the price
Starting at just $0.018/s
Like… seriously?!
But what makes this even more useful is that MiniMax Design also has GPT Image 2.5
I can generate the visuals with GPT Image 2.5, keep the quality and consistency I want, then take those images straight into H3 Max Turbo and turn them into video
Image → H3 Max Turbo → Video
Fast images, fast video, and I don’t have to keep rebuilding the idea across different tools
And apparently MiniMax Design wasn’t done — GPT-6 Astra is also available now at 92% off
Honestly, MiniMax Design + GPT Image 2.5 + H3 Max Turbo is definitely going on my list of workflows I’ll be using a lot
Every time I think MiniMax Design is done surprising me, there’s something else to try
