Video Generator
The Video Generator (Director Panel) creates short video clips from a text prompt or from an image. You choose the model (e.g. Cinematic or Premium Motion), describe the scene and motion, and generate.
Creation modes
- Text → Video — Describe the scene, action, and camera. The model generates the full shot.
- Image → Video — Start from a photo or asset; the model animates it (motion, camera, or both).
Prompt structure
Include:
- Subject + action — What (or who) is in the shot and what they do
- Environment — Where it happens
- Lighting — Mood and light quality
- Camera movement — e.g. slow push-in, tracking shot, orbit, pan
- Style / mood — Look and feel
Example:
"Close-up cinematic shot of a woman turning her head toward camera, subtle hair movement, soft studio lighting, slow camera push-in, realistic texture."
Director Prompt Builder
On supported video tools, the Director Prompt Builder panel (below the main prompt) offers templates, style chips, and a preview so you can assemble prompts step by step. See Director Prompt Builder.
Director Controls
Many video models include a Director Controls section (scene consistency, motion strength, camera presets, blur, bokeh, shake, lens effects). See Director Controls for a full guide. Those settings are merged with your prompt when you generate.
Motion and camera keywords
Useful terms for motion and camera (in addition to optional Director Controls):
- slow push-in, pull-out
- tracking shot, dolly
- orbit shot, slow pan
- subtle movement, handheld feel
Tips for realism
- Keep the scene simple (one main subject).
- Use one main motion or camera move per clip.
- Prefer shorter durations when testing.
- Avoid overloading the prompt with too many actions at once.
Generated videos are saved to your Asset Library and can be used in Production Studio or assigned to a project.
