What Wan 3.0 does well

01

Twenty seconds, one take, with sound

A red steam train comes out of the fog, sounds its horn, hisses to a stop and pulls away again as the station master raises his flag. Twenty seconds from one generation, with the horn, the brakes and the wind on the same track as the picture. Wan 3.0 goes up to 30.

Prompt

One continuous 20-second shot at a small mountain railway station on a snowy winter dawn, no cuts. The camera starts wide on the empty platform as a red vintage train appears out of the fog with its headlamp on and sounds its horn twice. The train rolls in and stops beside the platform with a long hiss of steam from the brakes while the camera dollies slowly along the carriages. A station master in a dark wool coat and peaked cap walks out of the station office, rings a brass hand bell three times and raises a green flag; the carriage doors close and the train begins to pull away. Sound: the horn, wheels on rails, the brake hiss, footsteps crunching on snow, the bell, wind. No music, no subtitles, no text.

02

From a start frame to lift-off

Give it a still you already like and describe what happens next. The burner roars, the crew let go and the balloon rises into the morning mist, keeping the stripes, the basket and the valley of the start frame, with the burner and the birdsong in the audio.

Prompt

The pilot fires the burner in two long roaring blasts and the envelope glows brighter. The two crew members let go of the basket, and the balloon lifts gently off the grass and rises while the camera tilts up to follow it into the morning sky. Mist drifts across the field and the sun climbs over the hills. Keep the balloon's stripes, the basket and the valley as in the first frame. Sound: the roar of the burner, the creak of the wicker basket, the crew cheering in the distance, birdsong. No music, no subtitles.

03

Three references, one scene

One image sets the beekeeper, one the WILD HONEY jar, one the farmhouse kitchen. Wan 3.0 puts them in one shot: she lifts the jar to the window, lets the honey run off the dipper and says her line out loud, "Straight from our hives this morning." The label stays readable in every frame.

Prompt

The woman from image 1 stands at the oak table in the farmhouse kitchen from image 3. She picks up the honey jar from image 2, holds it up to the sunny window so the honey glows, lifts the wooden dipper and lets a thin ribbon of honey run back into the jar, then smiles at the camera and says: "Straight from our hives this morning." The camera slowly pushes in from a medium shot to a close-up. Keep her face, glasses, straw hat and yellow apron, and the jar with its WILD HONEY label, as in the references. Sound: her voice, birdsong through the open window, the dipper tapping the glass. No music, no subtitles.

What to make with Wan 3.0

Long single-take scenes

Arrivals, departures and reveals that need 20 or 30 seconds of continuous action, without stitching short clips together.

Animated stills with their own sound

Bring an approved photo or illustration to life and get the ambient sound in the same file, ready for a social post.

Spokesperson and product scenes

Combine a character image, a product image and a location image so the same person, pack and set appear in the clip, speaking a line you write.

The technology behind Wan 3.0

How the model works, based on public documentation and sourced evidence.

Wan 3.0 is Alibaba's all-in-one video model. One API covers text-to-video, first-frame and first-last-frame image-to-video, and reference-to-video using ordered image, video, audio, file, or web inputs.

The official contract supports 480P, 720P, and 1080P output, common portrait and landscape ratios, 30 fps video, and output duration from 2 to 30 seconds when no input video is supplied. Reference mode accepts up to 10 images, five video clips, and five audio clips under the documented aggregate limits. Output audio is on by default and does not change the price.

All three modes are open on Vidney with a duration slider from 2 to 30 seconds, 480p, 720p and 1080p output, and a sound switch that does not change the price. A 10-second clip usually comes back in three to four minutes; a 20-second 720p clip takes around ten.

Who reaches for Wan 3.0

Wan 3.0 is Alibaba's video model, released in August 2026, and its headline change is length: one generation runs anywhere from 2 to 30 seconds, where the previous Wan stopped at 15. Sound comes out of the same pass, so engines, footsteps, birdsong and a spoken line arrive with the picture instead of being added later. It can start from a written scene, from a start frame you already approved, or from reference material (up to 10 images, 5 video clips and 5 audio clips) that fixes who appears, what they hold and where it happens. On Vidney it is priced per second: 18 credits at 480p, 36 at 720p and 72 at 1080p, and sound costs nothing extra. Pick it for long single takes and scenes that need their own sound; for a sequence cut into several shots from one prompt, Seedance 2.0 is the closer fit.
