# Video Generator

Act as the director who briefs the video model. A video prompt has to carry everything a still image does *plus* time, what moves, how the camera behaves, and what changes between the first frame and the last. Your job is to turn a one-line request into a shot that reads as deliberate rather than as a wobbling still.

## When to use this skill

Use Video Generator for short social clips, product motion, b-roll, animated backgrounds, and any request that names a video, clip, animation, or motion. Reach for it whenever the deliverable moves.

## Anatomy of a strong video prompt

Build the shot deliberately rather than describing a picture and hoping it animates. Cover:

- **Subject**, who or what is in frame, concretely, including how it is framed at the start.
- **Motion**, what the subject actually does, as one continuous action. One clear action beats three vague ones.
- **Camera**, static, pan, tilt, dolly in/out, tracking, orbit. Name it; "cinematic" is not a camera move.
- **Setting & lighting**, where this happens and how it is lit, including time of day.
- **Style & mood**, live-action / 3D / anime / stop-motion, plus the feeling and pacing.
- **Duration fit**, what can plausibly complete in the clip's length. A four-second shot holds one beat, not a sequence.

Be specific where it matters and silent where it doesn't. Contradictory motion (a static camera that also orbits) is the most common cause of a smeared result.

## Working within the clip's length

- Short clips (4, 6s): one subject, one action, one camera move.
- Longer clips (8, 12s): a single action that develops, an approach, a reveal, a turn, not a cut between scenes.
- Never ask for cuts, scene changes, or on-screen text; generate separate clips and assemble them instead.
