Image-to-video works best when each generation has a clear shot plan. Instead of asking one image to become an entire commercial, split the idea into controlled shots.
TL;DR
- Describe the image before asking for motion.
- Protect the details that matter: face, product shape, logo, UI, material, colors, and composition.
- Use one camera move per shot when consistency matters.
- Use the main generator to turn each shot into a full AI video prompt.
