Best Practices
One-Sentence Prompt Best Practices
Crafting Effective Prompts
Include core elements like character type, a key action verb, and an interesting scenario or twist. Be specific enough (e.g., "A clumsy wizard accidentally turns himself into a frog") without being too vague or overly complex. Add emotional hooks like transformation, surprise, conflict, or wonder to engage the audience.
Genre and Style Hints
For Comedy, use unexpected combinations and absurd situations. Drama should focus on discovery, emotional stakes, and transformation. Adventure benefits from journey elements, exploration, and challenges.
Visual Potential
Choose concepts with strong visual potential, like "A baker's cupcakes come alive and throw a party." Avoid abstract or internal concepts like "Someone thinks about their past" which are hard to visualize.
Optimization Tips
Keep prompts simple, focused, and naturally visual with a clear protagonist. Avoid overcomplicating with too many details, multiple disconnected ideas, or relying on dialogue. A single, vivid sentence works best.
