​
Advanced Techniques

​
Motion Consistency

  • Use specific movement terms
  • Specify speed: “slow, smooth, rapid”
  • Avoid conflicting movements
  • One primary motion per clip
  • Clear action descriptions
  • Realistic physics
  • Natural human motion
  • Avoid impossible movements
  • Wind effects
  • Water movement
  • Particle systems
  • Background activity

​
Style Consistency

For multi-clip projects:
  1. Define Visual Language
    • Color palette
    • Lighting style
    • Camera technique
    • Mood/atmosphere
  2. Maintain Continuity
    • Consistent environments
    • Matching lighting
    • Similar motion speeds
    • Unified color grading
  3. Use Reference Terms

Common Challenges

​
Generation Failures

If generation fails, check these common issues:
  1. Prompt Complexity
    • Simplify descriptions
    • Focus on one main action
    • Remove contradictions
  2. Physics Violations
    • Ensure realistic motion
    • Avoid impossible actions
    • Check gravity/physics

  • Slower camera movements
  • Simpler subject actions
Inconsistent Lighting:
  • Specify exact lighting
  • Use consistent terms
  • Avoid mixed sources
Blurry Results:
  • Add “sharp focus”
  • Specify camera type
  • Include quality markers
