How it works
Use the tool as a repeatable creative workflow: choose a strong input, describe the change clearly, then review and iterate.
1
Start with a clear source image
Use a sharp portrait, product image, character render, or campaign visual. A clean subject and readable background give the video model stronger visual anchors.
2
Describe motion, not only style
Prompts work best when they include camera movement, subject action, mood, and pacing. For example: slow push-in, hair moving in the wind, cinematic light, soft background motion.
3
Review the first seconds
Check identity, hands, product edges, and background stability before iterating. Small prompt changes usually work better than rewriting everything.
Prompt tips
- Mention the main subject first, then the camera movement.
- Use concrete motion verbs such as turning, walking, smiling, zooming, or rotating.
- Keep brand or product details simple when the image contains text or logos.
- Avoid asking for many scene changes in one short clip.
Quality checklist
- The uploaded image is high resolution and not heavily compressed.
- The subject is visible without important details cropped off.
- The motion prompt describes one clear action or camera move.
- The final clip preserves the subject and does not introduce unwanted artifacts.
