Black Forest Labs' next-generation foundation model. FLUX 3 learns images, video, and audio together — so motion, sound, and structure stay more coherent. Generate clips with native audio (commonly up to about 20 seconds), continue from images or video, and prepare for stronger image synthesis with complex prompts and multilingual typography.
Available on SeedDance — FLUX 3 Video (early access)

FLUX 3 is Black Forest Labs' multimodal foundation model announced in 2026. Unlike earlier FLUX releases that focused mainly on images, FLUX 3 is trained jointly on images, video, and audio in a unified Self-Flow architecture — aiming for a stronger shared understanding of how objects hold together, how they move, and how events sound. Product surfaces roll out as FLUX 3 Video, FLUX 3 Image, FLUX 3 Action, and later FLUX 3 Dev (open weights).
Generate diverse clips with synchronized speech, effects, and ambience in one pass. Official early materials highlight single-generation lengths commonly up to about 20 seconds (resolution and mode depend on the provider API).
Start from a prompt (text-to-video), pin images as frames or references (image-to-video), or continue an existing clip (video continuation) while carrying characters and context forward.
FLUX 3 Image targets better complex-prompt following and high-accuracy multilingual text in-frame — across flexible styles, aspect ratios, and resolutions — with early access rolling out after video.
Joint training across modalities is designed so sound matches impact, motion respects structure, and multi-shot sequences stay more coherent for longer storytelling drafts.
FLUX 3 is positioned for creators and teams who need more than a single beautiful frame — short narrative video with audio, reference-driven continuity, and image work that follows dense prompts.

Core capabilities of FLUX 3 Video on SeedDance. Exact options match the AI video generator (duration, resolution, draft, audio, and inputs).
Describe scene, camera, style, and dialogue in natural language to generate a short video with optional native audio.
One image opens the clip pixel-for-pixel; two set start and end; three to ten act as a storyboard (explicit duration required). Images and start video cannot be combined.
Upload a short mp4 (≤15s, ≤50MB) as start_video to continue from its final frames. Cannot be combined with image inputs.
Generate a fast, lower-cost 720p draft to iterate on prompts before a full-quality 720p or 1080p run.
Audio is on by default (ambience, speech, effects). Turn it off for a silent clip.
FLUX 3 Image aims for wide style range, flexible framing, and better in-image text — with API early access rolling out after the video tier.
