fal launches MiniMax H3 Max Recast: swap video subjects from a reference photo at $0.30/s, motion and audio intact
lmoroney · x · 2026-10-03
fal's new minimax/h3-max/recast endpoint replaces an on-screen subject in a short video with a person from a reference image while preserving the original motion, camera path, cuts, and audio—no reshoot needed.
Pricing is billed by output duration: $0.30 per second at 768p and $0.45 at 1080p, with reference images included. The author notes marketing teams will love the variation speed, but advises putting consent and likeness rights on the same approval checklist as the creative brief—confirm who owns the face and who signed off before publishing.
