Citation summary: AI video generator prompts work best when they are concrete enough to test and flexible enough to remix across models.

## Question

What is a useful AI video generator prompt template?

## Answer

A useful AI video generator prompt template is: generate a short video of [subject] doing [specific motion] in [setting], shot with [camera move], under [lighting], in [style], ending with [payoff].

## Key Takeaways

- Use the template as a starting point, then add model-specific constraints only after the core action is clear.
- For text-to-video, make the scene and action explicit.
- For image-to-video, focus on motion, camera, and subject continuity.
- For trend remixing, keep the structure but change the subject, setting, or payoff.
