A Reddit creator released The Mermaid, a folklore short film made with MiniMax, showing underwater scenes and close-ups with a fairly cinematic look.
The author admits they're still struggling with blocking and color shifts, and that upscaling made things worse rather than better, forcing a 1080p deliverable. It's a candid hands-on data point for anyone attempting narrative short films with video models.
