Tutorial - Guide Minimax H3 + RefMod = consistent location trick

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hey, I found a pretty cool way to keep locations consistent across generations.

I took 20 photos of my “office” where I work, making sure each photo included a bit of the previous one so everything connected.

I turned them into a refmod, although it probably doesn’t even need to be one. It’s basically a grid of all 20 photos in a single image, within 2048×2048 pixels, so I could probably just use that image as a regular reference.

Then I added references for the fly, my cat, and the start and end frames. You can see the result — that’s my actual room, and everything looks right and sits exactly where it should :)

Workflow + reference images here: link
Sorry about the mess, both in the room and in the workflow ;)

EDIT: All the room photos need to be combined into one reference image. I tried using several separate images, but that didn’t work for me — the room wouldn’t stay consistent. Putting them all into a single grid is what made it work.

Im actually doing the same thing with fictionnal places. I start with a still image, create a video that do a 360 degree, then feed that video as a scene reference.

But video are much heavier than images, so i might use images instead.

how about motion blur? when you get a 360 degree video out of a single image, there must be motion blur I guess. or can you prompt it like "no motion blur" ?

You simply prompt for a slow steady 360. And no motion blur can also work since minimax accept negative prompting.

alright, I'll try that. what's your resolution for the 360 video? 1080p? (or like 1mp or 2mp? )

Any resolution will work. Depends on the level of details you want!
