Video generation bots

Prompting tips

1. Be descriptive, rather than instructive. Unlike for text generation bots, the style prompt should describe the desired video, not be an instruction to the bot. The best prompt structure is:

Style, camera angle, description of character/ scene + verb (doing something) + background/ environment/setting + any additional information

For example:

Artistic. Low angle shot. An elderly woman wearing a floral sundress, tending to her vibrant garden. Golden hour lighting. --aspect 1:1

2. Keep prompts concise. Unlike for image generation bots (such as Midjourney), shorter prompts tend to work better.
3. Add camera motions Adding camera motions can produce more cinematic results.

• --zoom (in/out)
• --rotate (cw/ccw)
• --tilt (up/down)
• --pan (left/right)
