Wan 3.0 AI Video Generator

What Is Wan 3.0?

You do not always start a video project with a finished prompt. You may already have a product brief, a presentation, a webpage or a set of images. Wan 3.0 gives these materials a place in the creation process, alongside familiar text-to-video and image-to-video controls.

Choose the source that contains the information you need. A first frame is useful for an exact starting composition; a product document is useful for explaining what the video should communicate. These starting points solve different problems.

Wan 3.0 Key Features

Start with a product brief, not a blank prompt

Use a product document or webpage as reference material, then describe the video you want to create: the audience, the main benefit, the visual sequence and the desired ending. Keep the brief focused on one message so the source material supports the story rather than overwhelming it.

For a PDF or PowerPoint presentation, identify the section or idea that should drive the video. A long deck may cover a company overview, technical specifications and several products. A short video works better as a focused explanation of one of those topics than as an attempt to compress them all.

For a webpage reference, choose a publicly accessible page containing the relevant material. Explain whether you want a product introduction, a visual summary or a scene inspired by the page. A URL supplies context; your directions still define the output you want.

Choose one source route

China AI accepts one document or one webpage in a request, not both together. Document and webpage references cannot be combined with first or last frames. If your priority is a fixed opening composition, use the frame-based workflow instead.

Wan 3.0 document-to-video is best approached as a creative adaptation. After generation, check names, numbers, product details and any visible text against the source. Add exact claims and final brand typography during editing when accuracy is essential.

Animate Images with First and Last Frame Control

Wan 3.0 image-to-video can begin with a product photo, an environment image or a composed opening shot. Describe the movement you want to introduce instead of restating every object already visible in the image.

Add an end frame when the final composition matters. This is useful for a reveal that lands on a product close-up or a camera movement that finishes at a chosen view. Select a start and end that can connect through a coherent action; large changes in subject or layout require the model to invent more of the transition.

Reference images serve a different role: they guide the subject or appearance without occupying the dedicated first/last-frame slots. On China AI, reference images and first/last frames are not combined in one request. Open Image to Video, select Wan 3.0, and choose the input approach that matches the shot.

Plan Your Clip Length and Reference Inputs

Without a reference video, select an output length from 2 to 30 seconds. With reference video, its duration counts toward the same 30-second allowance as the generated clip.

Reference videos themselves are limited to 15 seconds in total across up to five files. Adding more video files does not increase that total. Reference audio also has a combined 15-second input limit.

Select the reference segment that contributes the movement or visual information you actually need. A shorter, focused reference leaves more room for the new output. If the intended video must run for the full 30 seconds, start from text, images or another supported non-video source instead.

For settings, choose 9:16 for a vertical video, 16:9 for a landscape presentation or another available ratio to match the destination. Explore the scene at 480p or 720p, then use 1080p for a higher-resolution version. Decide whether generated audio supports the piece or whether you will add sound separately.

Practical Workflows for Product, Explainer and Social Videos

Product introduction from an existing brief

Select a product document or public product page. Identify one benefit and plan a sequence that moves from the use situation to the product and its final presentation. A 15–20 second first draft gives you a manageable structure to evaluate before adding more content.

State which product details must remain recognizable, and inspect them in the output. If the exact first view matters more than the written source, switch to a product image and frame-based generation. Keep logos and precise label text available as separate editing assets.

A short explainer from presentation material

Choose one concept from a slide deck rather than requesting a video of the entire presentation. Organize the brief around a problem, a visual explanation and a takeaway. Use a landscape ratio for a presentation or a vertical ratio for a mobile-first version.

The source document helps establish the topic, but dense diagrams and small numbers need particular care. Keep exact charts as supplied graphics in your final edit, and use generated footage to illustrate the concept around them.

A social clip from a campaign page

Provide a campaign or destination webpage as context and specify the angle: an opening visual hook, one experience or benefit, and a closing view. Begin with a 10–15 second vertical concept, then lengthen it if the sequence needs more breathing room.

Keep the directions tied to visible scenes rather than broad instructions such as “make it viral.” For instance, decide what should appear first and what should change before the ending. This gives you concrete criteria for reviewing the result.

Wan 3.0 Limitations and Workarounds

A 30-second maximum does not always mean 30 seconds of output. Reference-video input uses part of the shared allowance. Trim the reference or shorten the new clip before submitting.

Source material still needs editorial direction. A long document can contain competing messages. Select the idea to communicate and describe its visual progression instead of relying on the upload alone.

Audio and on-screen text need review. Alibaba identifies audio texture and text-rendering accuracy as areas still being improved. Listen to the result and inspect written details; replace essential titles, figures or branding in your editor when necessary.

1080p is the highest output option here. Choose a 4K-capable model if your final delivery requires native 4K. Do not assume a longer or more detailed prompt changes the resolution setting.

Wan 3.0 Pricing and Access

On China AI Tools, Wan 3.0 runs on credits that scale with duration and resolution, up to 30-second 1080p clips. New accounts receive a free credit allowance to test it; subscriptions and credit packs are on the pricing page.

1. Open Text to Video for a prompt-led project, or Image to Video to begin with an image.
2. Select Wan 3.0 in the model selector.
3. Choose the input route and add your frames, reference media, document or webpage as appropriate.
4. Write the creative direction, select duration, resolution and aspect ratio, and set generated audio on or off.
5. Generate, review the result against your source and creative goal, then download the video.

Wan 3.0 vs Seedance 2.5: Which Fits Your Workflow?

Choose Wan 3.0 when the material you want to work from is a document or webpage. Choose Seedance 2.5 when your project needs a larger collection of image, video or audio references. Both offer output up to 1080p on China AI, so resolution alone does not separate them.

The Seedance 2.5 guide explains how to assign roles to a larger reference set. For 4K and multi-shot controls, see Kling 3.0. You can also compare the broader selection of Chinese AI models.

Wan 3.0 vs Earlier Wan Models

The practical shift is a broader starting point for creation. Alibaba’s Wan 3.0 materials describe document and webpage references alongside text, image, video and audio inputs, with output extending to 30 seconds. The family also includes Wan 2.7; Wan 2.6 is an earlier option still available on China AI, not the immediate predecessor to 3.0.

Keep Wan 2.6 in consideration for an existing short-video workflow that already meets your needs. Choose Wan 3.0 when source documents, webpages, first/last-frame control or a longer output are central to the task.
