A good AI video prompt is not just a description. It is a compact creative brief for multiple models.
Recommended structure
Use this order for most short-video prompts:
- Format and duration
- Subject and environment
- Main action
- Camera movement
- Visual style
- Audio or mood notes
- Safety and brand constraints
Example
A cinematic 10-second vertical short of a neon coffee cart landing on Mars, dust swirling, playful sound design, bold hook in the first two seconds, creator-ready.Why Gemini Omni optimizes to English
Downstream image and video models often respond more consistently to detailed English prompts. Users can write in any supported language, but the generation prompt should be normalized before spending image or video credits.
Keep prompts testable
Avoid asking for too many scene changes in one short clip. One clear subject, one motion, and one visual style usually generate better results.
