What makes Hunyuan Video 1.5 stand out

Hunyuan Video 1.5 is a text-to-video generator built for cinematic 5-8 second clips with stable structure, smooth motion, and realistic lighting. Its diffusion transformer design balances temporal coherence with per-frame detail, producing believable subjects and clean camera or object movement on consumer GPUs. Native 480p synthesis enables fast iteration, while a 1080p upscaling step prepares outputs for delivery. Bilingual prompting supports English and Chinese descriptions without sacrificing fidelity. With negative prompts and seeding, Hunyuan Video 1.5 offers precise control and reproducibility. The model focuses on efficient, structure-aware generation for social, product, and editorial content where clarity and motion quality matter most. Key capabilities of Hunyuan Video 1.5:

  • Structure-aware synthesis that preserves layout, pose, and material response across frames.
  • Smooth, artifact-minimized motion for pans, dolly moves, and subject actions.
  • 1080p upscaling pipeline from 480p generation for speed-to-quality workflows.
  • Aspect ratios 16:9 and 9:16 for landscape or vertical formats in Hunyuan Video 1.5.
  • Deterministic seeds and negative prompts for controlled, repeatable outputs.
  • Optional prompt expansion to enrich concise prompts when desired.
  • Efficient performance on consumer GPUs for rapid iterations with Hunyuan Video 1.5.

Prompting guide for Hunyuan Video 1.5

Start with a concise description of subject, environment, motion, and camera behavior. Specify aspect_ratio (16:9 or 9:16) to match the target platform and set num_frames to control duration within the model’s 5-8 second range. Use num_inference_steps to trade speed for detail; increase for complex scenes, decrease for quick drafts. Apply negative_prompt to exclude artifacts or unwanted elements, and set a fixed seed for reproducibility. Hunyuan Video 1.5 supports bilingual inputs; keep phrasing clear and avoid mixing languages mid-prompt. Enable prompt expansion when you want the model to elaborate a sparse description; disable it for strict adherence. Examples for Hunyuan Video 1.5:

  • Aerial wide shot of a coastal town at sunrise, slow dolly forward, soft golden light, gentle ocean waves
  • Close-up of a chrome robot turning its head, studio lighting, shallow depth of field, cinematic grade
  • Night city street in rain, neon reflections, pedestrian walking past camera, subtle handheld motion
  • Macro shot of a blooming flower opening in time-lapse style, dark background, crisp detail
  • Cozy living room, cat jumps onto a sofa, warm lamplight, static camera, natural motion
  • Prompt plus negative prompt example: Futuristic highway drive at dusk, smooth car-to-car motion; negative_prompt: text overlay, watermark, logo Pro tips:
  • Be explicit about motion verbs and camera intent (pan, dolly, static, handheld) to guide temporal dynamics.
  • Limit adjectives to a few strong descriptors; conflicting styles reduce coherence in Hunyuan Video 1.5.
  • Anchor spatial cues (left, right, foreground, background) to stabilize layout across frames.
  • Iterate with seed sweeps and small prompt edits; adjust num_inference_steps for fine detail vs speed.
  • Generate at 480p for speed, review motion, then upscale to 1080p for final delivery with Hunyuan Video 1.5.
