Expert Usage Tips
Use lower camera movement speeds for more realistic, cinematic weight in your final video.
Combine with a high-quality reference image to lock in character identity and prevent morphing.
Adjust the lighting description to match the time of day; use ‘Golden Hour’ for warmth and ‘Blue Hour’ for mystery.
Specify the lens type (e.g., 85mm for portraits, 24mm for landscapes) to control the perspective and background compression.
If the motion is too fast, reduce the intensity of the action verbs in the prompt to ensure the AI maintains focus on the subject.
