Writing prompts that generate great videos
The AI works from your words. Vague in, generic out — but you don't need to be a writer. A good prompt is just a few concrete details in one or two sentences.
The five ingredients
- Place: "attic library", "beach house porch", "Tokyo side street".
- Time & light: "golden hour", "3 AM neon", "grey winter morning".
- Weather / motion: "heavy rain on glass", "slow snowfall", "steam rising from a mug".
- Mood: "melancholic but safe", "focused and calm", "nostalgic".
- Sound palette (music modes): "soft piano over vinyl crackle", "brushed drums, upright bass".
Weak: "relaxing music video".
Strong: "Rainy night in a 90s Tokyo jazz bar — warm neon through wet glass, soft piano and brushed drums, nostalgic and half-asleep."
Let the AI help
- Enhance rewrites your rough idea into a richer brief.
- Title suggestions generate YouTube-style titles from your idea.
- Surprise me invents a full concept when you're blank.
- Pasting something long? Ideas up to 5,000 characters are auto-condensed into a clean brief.
Avoid naming real artists ("like Nujabes") or copyrighted works — the generators aim for originality and such references are ignored or produce off-target results. Describe the qualities you want instead.
Keep one visual anchor per video ("the window", "the fireplace"). Scenes read as a series when every track's image shares the anchor — that's what makes a channel recognizable.
