Luma ray3: The First Reasoning Generative Video Model
Luma Ray3-a reasoning generative video model with studio grade HDR, physics aware motion, trajectory doodle control.
The Features of Luma ray3
Visual Reasoning and Physics-Aware Motion
Ray3 introduces visual reasoning to generative video AI, enabling consistent characters, coherent action, and cause‑and‑effect sequences. With physics and spatial understanding, Luma ray3 produces realistic motion, scene continuity, and object interactions - ideal for cinematic text‑to‑video, storyboard‑to‑video, and prompt‑to‑video production.
Studio-Grade HDR and Cinematic Fidelity
Designed for studio‑grade HDR, Luma ray3 outputs rich contrast, dynamic highlights, and true‑to‑life color. Whether your pipeline starts with text-to-image prompts, image-to-video references, or direct text-to-video prompts, Ray3 delivers cinematic quality suitable for brand ads, trailers, and social content.
Doodle Trajectory and Fine Motion Control
With trajectory doodles, you can sketch motion paths and block action directly over a frame or reference image, giving precise control over camera movement and subject trajectories. This makes Luma ray3 uniquely strong for image-to-video enhancements, shot planning, and controllable prompt-to-video storytelling.
Character and Spatial Consistency
Ray3’s understanding of identity and layout helps maintain character appearance, scene geography, and temporal continuity across shots. That reliability boosts results for text-to-video, image-to-video, and mixed prompt workflows in professional pipelines.
