  Choose 360p, 720p, 1080p, or 4k depending on speed, cost, and output quality needs.

• Landscape and vertical formats
  Use 16:9 for widescreen video or 9:16 for vertical content.

Best Use Cases

• Prompt exploration — Use 360p to test creative direction before generating higher-resolution versions.
• Cinematic short clips — Create short scenes with motion, camera direction, and synchronized sound.
• Social media videos — Generate vertical or landscape videos for posts, ads, shorts, and reels.
• Marketing concepts — Produce campaign clips, product scenes, and promotional video ideas.
• Storyboarding and previsualization — Turn scene descriptions into audiovisual previews.
• High-resolution delivery — Use 1080p or 4k when final output quality matters.

Pro Tips

• Start with 360p for fast prompt testing, then move to 1080p or 4k for final output.
• Include subject, action, camera movement, lighting, mood, and audio cues in the prompt.
• Use 9:16 for mobile-first video and 16:9 for widescreen content.
• Keep the scene focused when generating short clips.
• Mention dialogue, music, ambience, or sound effects directly when audio direction matters.
• Use shorter durations for quick iteration and longer durations when the scene needs more time to develop.
