Help: Minimax Re-imagines Video Angles Instead of Simple Character Replacement
clevenger2002 · reddit · 2026-08-31
A user is attempting to replace Gene Kelly with Tifa Lockhart in a video clip using Minimax's ref2vid model. The goal is a strict identity swap while preserving all original camera angles, movement, environment, and choreography.
However, the output generates entirely new camera angles rather than a simple swap. Despite using detailed prompts defining <Subject 1>, <Video 1> (structural preservation), and retentionanalysis to enforce attributetransfer only, the model continues to re-imagine the video. The user is seeking advice on what might be going wrong.
