How to Write Prompts for the Five Modes

Before you write, decide which mode you want: text-to-video (a single description, optionally with a reference image to lock the subject), creative long video (a storyline plus a scene list), manuscript video (a whole article auto-split), poetry video (a poem split line by line) or the digital anchor (a reference portrait plus a voiceover script; narration and subtitles are generated automatically — see the "Narration & Subtitles" guide). Each mode asks for a different emphasis in the prompt. All modes share the same limits: roughly 16 requests per minute, up to 720p, and a maximum of 20 seconds per clip.

Five modes, five approaches

Let the mode decide the focus; then add the general tips below.

General prompting tips

• Be concrete

  Turn a vague idea into something visible. Instead of "a beautiful girl", say "a girl in a red dress running on tiptoe across a rainy platform". If it can't be drawn, it won't be rendered well.

• One shot per sentence

  Use periods and semicolons to break your prompt into shots and beats, one action per sentence. Don't jam a whole story into a single action phrase.

• Describe light, camera and depth

  Say the light source, contrast, depth of field and camera angle, e.g., warm backlight, shallow depth of field, dutch angle. If light and angles work, the frame looks instantly better.

• Set the style in the first line

  Open with one sentence that fixes the whole look, for example cyberpunk neon or ink-painting. Once the style is locked, later shots keep the vibe.

Common pitfalls

• Too many shots in one prompt

  Explosion + car chase + romance packed into a single sentence makes the model grab one randomly. Write one shot at a time; use creative mode for the rest.

• Adjectives instead of pictures

  "Beautiful", "epic", "cool" are reviews, not directions. Translate them into light, framing, action and composition so the model can shoot them.

• Ignoring subject consistency

  If a character keeps changing look across shots, you likely forgot to describe the main subject. Give a reference image or repeat key identity details to anchor them.
