Key features

WAN 3.0 Prime Reference turns reference images into video inside Enhance AI. It produces clips from 5 to 30 seconds at a resolution you choose, 720p by default. On top of that it renders 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:3, 3:4 and adaptive and it accepts up to 10 reference images. WAN 3.0 Prime Reference is built by Alibaba. On Enhance AI it runs on the same account as every other model, with no separate subscription.

Clip length

WAN 3.0 Prime Reference renders clips from 5 to 30 seconds, and you pick the length before you render. Longer clips cost more because video is billed by length, so rough out an idea short and only render the full length once the shot works.

Resolution

Choose 480p, 720p or 1080p before you render. A lower resolution costs less, so test a prompt low and rerender the keeper at the top setting. The studio shows the price for the setting you picked before anything is charged.

Input modes

WAN 3.0 Prime Reference takes a written prompt, reference images, reference videos (optional) and reference audio (optional). Add them in the studio, check the preview and render. Every output lands in your history, ready to download or to pass to another model on the same account.

Reference images

Add up to 10 reference images and WAN 3.0 Prime Reference holds a character, a product or a style steady across shots: the gap between a clip that looks like your brand and one that looks like the model's idea of it. Attach them next to the prompt.

Aspect ratios

WAN 3.0 Prime Reference renders 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:3, 3:4 and adaptive. Pick the ratio for the platform before you render rather than cropping afterwards: 9:16 for Reels and Shorts, 16:9 for YouTube and 1:1 for feeds. The whole frame is generated for that shape.

Audio

WAN 3.0 Prime Reference can generate sound with the picture, so the clip arrives with audio that matches what is on screen rather than silence you have to fill later. You can still mute it and lay your own voice or music track over the top in any editor.
