Tips and Tricks for Generating Videos With Gen-2.
While there are no strict rules for prompting in Gen 2, this formula tends to yield better results: style, shot, subject, action, setting, and lighting.
Begin your prompt with a style keyword, like cinematic, action, animation, black and white, etc.
The shot refers to the camera angle, such as wide, medium, close-up, or extreme close-up.
Then specify the subject, which can be anything from characters to objects or locations you want to include. Keep character descriptions simple, like “man with grey hair wearing sunglasses”
Action should describe what the characters are doing, but remember that Gen-2 is better at simple actions like walking, talking, or running.
The setting describes the environment, such as a city, beach, or spaceship.
Lastly, use keywords like sunset, sunrise, day, night, horror film lighting, or sci-fi lighting for the desired lighting effect.
Using a reference image can help guide Gen 2. Try to create characters and settings within mid-journey and use them as storyboards for Gen 2. Keep descriptions simple for better consistency.
