FlixyWrite better prompts in 2 minutes
A good prompt describes what you see in your head. Here is the method, before/after examples and ready-to-try ideas.
The simple formula
No need to include everything: 3 or 4 elements are often enough.
1. Be precise about the subject
Colours, materials, age, outfit, emotion: every detail counts.
2. Describe the light
It changes the whole mood: sunrise, neon, studio, candlelight, backlight…
3. Pick a style
Photorealistic, cinematic, illustration, 3D, anime, watercolour… or use the Style menu.
4. Think about framing
Close-up, wide shot, top view, aerial view: say where the camera is.
5. For a video, add movement and sound
Does the camera move in, turn, follow the subject? What can we hear?
6. For an edit, only say what changes
Flixy keeps everything else: faces, framing, colours.
7. Refine in the same conversation
Not quite right? Just write what to change: “more light”, “remove the text”, “same one in vertical”.
8. Text in the image?
Write it in quotes and say where to put it: “title “Sale” at the top, in big white letters”.
