MiniMax Ref2Va Testing: Complex Character Sheets Lose Facial Features
DoctaRoboto · reddit · 2026-08-10
The author shares hands-on experience using MiniMax's video generation model Ref2Va. Currently, to maintain character facial consistency throughout a video, the head and body must be processed separately.
The author also questions the popular "multi-angle complex character sheets" used in the community. In practical testing, even with complex reference sheets, the model often loses facial features during generation. The author asks the community whether resolution (large vs. small images) can effectively improve the consistency of complex character sheets in video generation.
