Expert Usage Tips
1. Adjust the camera movement variable to “Drone Shot” for a more epic, grand reveal of the environment.
2. Use specific color palette keywords like “Monochromatic Red” to achieve a more cohesive and stylistic visual identity.
3. If the AI struggles with identity, use a static reference image of your subject as the starting frame in tools like Runway or Luma.
4. For a more viral social media effect, ensure the “Music Style” is specified as “Lo-fi Chinese Fusion” to match the trending audio aesthetics.
5. Experiment with the “Lens” parameter; switching to an 85mm lens will create a more intimate, portrait-focused video compared to the wide 24mm.
