  3. Camera Work: Camera angles and movements
  4. Lighting/Atmosphere: Mood and lighting
  5. Style: Visual aesthetic

A fluffy orange cat playfully batting at a red ball of yarn on a hardwood floor, sunlight streaming through a window creating warm shadows, camera slowly panning right, cozy home atmosphere
Aerial drone shot flying over a misty mountain valley at sunrise, camera moving forward and descending, golden light breaking through clouds, cinematic color grading, 4K quality
Close-up shot of a smartphone rotating on a white surface, studio lighting with soft shadows, camera orbiting around the product, professional commercial style, clean and minimal

Troubleshooting

  • Make prompt more specific
  • Add more descriptive details
  • Try different model
  • Simplify complex scenes
  • Adjust motion intensity
  • Simplify camera movements
  • Use smoother action descriptions
  • Try different duration
  • Increase resolution to 1080p
  • Use quality keywords (4K, cinematic, detailed)
  • Try a higher-tier model
  • Ensure prompt is clear and focused
Start with shorter videos (2-4 seconds) to test your prompts, then increase duration once you’re happy with the results.

Advanced Techniques

Combining Multiple Elements

Creating Loops

For looping videos, describe cyclical actions:
Ocean waves gently rolling onto sandy beach, continuous 
motion, camera static, soft natural lighting, seamless loop
