Begin with the main subject and action, then add the setting, composition, camera behavior and visual atmosphere. One coherent shot usually works better than several unrelated events in a short clip.
Step-by-step workflow
- Subject
Name the main person, object or environment with concrete visual details. - Action
Describe one readable movement using direct verbs. - Camera
State the shot size, angle and whether the camera moves. - Look and constraints
Add lighting, color, pace, aspect ratio and anything that should be excluded.

A [shot size] of [subject] [action] in [setting]. The camera [movement]. [Lighting] creates a [mood] atmosphere. Natural motion, consistent details, [aspect ratio], no captions.
Frequently asked questions
Should a prompt describe several scenes?
For a short generation, one focused shot is often more consistent. Create separate clips for separate scenes.
Why specify an aspect ratio?
