How do I write a good text-to-video prompt?

To write the best text-to-video prompt possible, be descriptive. Include details about the subject, the action (e.g., “running,” “flying”), the setting, lighting (e.g., “golden hour,” “neon”), and camera style (e.g., “wide angle,” “cinematic”). The more intentional your prompt, the closer the result will be to your vision. You can also refine and iterate to explore different variations and improve results over time. For more prompt-writing tips and techniques, see our article on Improving prompts in the Artlist Help Center.
