How to get a strong result

Tips for better results

Start with the subject, then add lighting, style, and anything that must stay the same. Upload a reference whenever you want a more controlled edit.

  1. 1

    Direct the whole shot

    Describe subject action, camera movement, lighting, pace, and sound separately.

  2. 2

    Use references intentionally

    Explain what each reference contributes instead of relying on the media alone.

  3. 3

    Start short

    Validate composition and motion with a short clip before increasing duration or resolution.
