How to Prompt

What is a Prompt?

A prompt is a set of instructions or a description you provide to an AI to help it generate content. Think of it like giving directions to a creative assistant: you tell the assistant what elements you want in a project and how you envision the final outcome.

Prompts are essential because they guide the AI in creating content that matches your vision. The clearer and more detailed your prompt, the better the AI can understand what you want and deliver a result that meets your expectations.

How to Prompt

1. Be Specific: Clearly describe the main subject, setting, and any key elements you want in the video.
   • Example: "A serene beach at sunset with waves gently crashing on the shore and seagulls flying in the sky."
2. Include Details: Mention any particular details that are important for the video.
   • Example: "The beach has golden sand and a few palm trees. The sky is painted with hues of pink and orange."
3. Focus on Emotions or Atmosphere: Describe the mood or atmosphere you want to convey.
   • Example: "The video should feel peaceful and calming.”
4. Use Simple Language: Avoid complex terms and jargon. Simple, straightforward language is most effective.
   • Example: "A cozy living room with a crackling fireplace and a cat sleeping on the rug."

By following these steps, you can create effective prompts that help the AI generate high-quality videos that align with your vision.
