MiniMax Design plugs into Blender via MCP to drive AI video from 3D references

Creator akiyoshisan demoed a hybrid 3D-to-AI video workflow: MiniMax Design (using GPT-6 Astra) connects directly to Blender via MCP. They first build motion and camera references in Blender, then combine them with character images to generate a finished AI video complete with sound.
Key points:
- Motion, camera, character look, background world-building and audio flow through one pipeline, with the 3D animation serving as the foundation for video generation
- Video generation and comparison editing all happen inside MiniMax Design
- The approach deliberately keeps humans in the loop: craft the motion in 3D first, then hand it to the AI, rather than letting AI handle everything
Hailuo AI's official account reshared it as an example of bringing AI into professional 3D workflows.
