Expert Usage Tips
Tip 1: Always specify the camera lens type (e.g., 35mm vs 85mm) to control the depth of field and professional look of your shots.
Tip 2: Use consistent character descriptions across scenes to prevent identity drift when using multi-prompt generation workflows.
Tip 3: Match your lighting style to the time of day described in the environment to ensure physical realism and viewer immersion.
Tip 4: For viral potential, emphasize “high-motion” movements in your prompt to keep viewers engaged during the first three seconds of the video.
Tip 5: If the AI generates jittery movement, reduce the intensity of the camera movement keywords in your prompt and re-run the generation.
