Video Generation Guidelines

Video Generation Guidelines

1. Structure Your Prompt Effectively

Organize your prompt to clearly convey the scene, subject, and camera movement. A recommended structure is:

• Camera Movement: Describe the camera's action.

• Establishing Scene: Outline the setting and context.

• Additional Details: Include specific elements or stylistic choices.

Example:

• Camera Movement: "Low angle static shot."

• Establishing Scene: "The camera is angled up at a woman wearing all orange as she stands in a tropical rainforest with colorful flora."

• Additional Details: "The dramatic sky is overcast and gray."

This structure helps provide consistent results and ensures that the generated video aligns with your concept.

2. Be Descriptive and Specific

Incorporate various elements into your prompt, including the subject, style, composition, lighting, and color palette. Adding technical details such as camera settings and atmospheric conditions can further refine the output. For example:

• Subject: "A serene mountain landscape."

• Style: "In the style of impressionist painting."

• Composition: "With a lone hiker in the foreground."

• Lighting: "Bathed in the golden glow of sunset."

• Color Palette: "Dominated by warm hues of orange and pink."

• Camera Settings: "Captured with a wide-angle lens."

• Atmospheric Conditions: "Under a clear sky with scattered clouds."

3. Utilize Camera and Lighting Keywords

Incorporate specific keywords to define camera styles and lighting techniques, enhancing the visual quality of the generated video. Some examples include:

• Camera Styles:

  • Low angle

  • High angle

  • Overhead

  • FPV (First-Person View)

  • Handheld

  • Wide angle

  • Close-up

  • Macro cinematography

  • Over the shoulder

  • Tracking

  • Establishing wide

  • 50mm lens

  • SnorriCam

  • Realistic documentary

  • Camcorder

• Lighting Styles:

  • Diffused lighting

  • Silhouette

  • Lens flare

  • Backlit

  • Side lit

  • [Color] gel lighting

  • Venetian lighting

4. Describe the Background in Detail

To avoid a blurred or undefined background, provide specific attributes such as texture, color, objects, and depth. For instance:

• "A bustling city street with cobblestone pavement, lined with colorful storefronts, and pedestrians in motion, creating a sense of depth and activity."

5. Prioritize Technical Accuracy

While artistic descriptors are valuable, focusing on technical aspects can enhance the AI's interpretation. Specify camera types, settings, and environmental descriptions. For example:

• "A portrait taken with a 50mm lens at f/1.8 aperture, featuring soft bokeh in the background, under natural daylight."

6. Utilize Text Generation Models for Prompt Refinement

To perfect your prompts, consider using text generation models available within the Neurahub mini app. These tools can help you craft more precise and effective descriptions, leading to better video generation results.

7. Experiment with Different Prompt Structures

Testing various prompt formats can yield diverse outputs. For instance, using a filename-like structure followed by a brief description:

• "VID_1086.mp4, birthday, girl smiling with a cake, indoor lighting, candid shot."

This approach can guide the AI to produce videos resembling personal recordings.

8. Combine Multiple Elements

Incorporate multiple aspects into a single prompt to achieve complex compositions. For example:

• "A vintage car parked on a deserted road, under a starry night sky, with the Milky Way visible, captured in high-resolution."

9. Specify Artistic Styles

If you desire a particular artistic style, mention it explicitly. For instance:

• "A landscape painting in the style of Claude Monet, featuring a lily pond with blooming flowers."

10. Define the Mood and Atmosphere

Convey the desired mood to influence the video's tone. For example:

• "A melancholic scene of an abandoned house, shrouded in fog, with muted colors and soft lighting."

11. Include Temporal and Cultural Context

Adding time periods or cultural references can provide context. For example:

• "A bustling 1920s jazz club, with musicians playing on stage, patrons dancing, and Art Deco interior design."

12. Iterate and Refine

After generating a video, assess the result and adjust your prompt accordingly. Iterative refinement helps in honing the output to better match your vision.

By applying these strategies, you can effectively guide the Neurahub mini app to generate videos that closely align with your creative objectives.
