  4. In the text field, enter a clear and descriptive prompt describing what you want the clip to show.

    • Example: A timelapse of robotic trees emerging from the ground with a ginger cat watching.

  5. (Optional) Turn on Audio Integration if you want the clip to include synchronized, automatically generated sound.

  6. Click Generate Video Clip to start the creation process.


Method 2: Add to an Existing Project

Quick Tips for Better Results

  • Keep your prompts short and descriptive — about one to two sentences works best.

  • Include visual and stylistic cues like “cinematic,” “soft lighting,” or “realistic texture.”

  • Experiment with different prompts to get the best results; small wording changes can create unique variations.

  • Enable Audio Integration for richer results with background sound or ambient effects.

  • Duration varies by prompt, typically 5–10 seconds per clip.
