Text to video workflow
Create AI videos from text with a practical prompt workflow
Got a video idea but no footage yet? Start with a plain text prompt. Describe the scene, pick a video model, and Omni will turn it into a short clip you can test in an ad, a social post, a landing page, or a product concept.
What text-to-video is best for
Use text-to-video when you have the idea but not the assets. Maybe you need a launch teaser, a social hook, a mood-board shot, or a scene that would cost too much to film. With text prompts, you are not giving the model a fixed image. You are telling it what should exist: the subject, the place, the movement, and the light.
How to write a stronger text prompt
A good prompt does not need to be long. It just needs the parts that matter: subject, setting, action, camera move, lighting, and style. For example, “a compact electric bike riding through a quiet city street at sunrise, low-angle tracking shot, warm light, realistic product commercial style” gives the model more to work with than “electric bike video.” You get fewer random surprises, and the clip is easier to judge for a real ad or product page.
When to choose image-to-video instead
If the exact appearance of a product, face, logo, interior, or artwork matters, start with image-to-video rather than text-to-video. Text prompts are great for exploration, but an uploaded image gives the model a fixed visual reference. Many Omni users create a scene with text first, then use a selected still or product image to generate a more brand-consistent version.
Practical iteration tips
Generate one clear baseline before making variations. If the clip feels chaotic, simplify the action and use a single camera move. If the scene is too generic, add concrete materials, colors, time of day, and lens language. If the subject changes too much, ask for a locked composition or switch to a reference image. Iteration is fastest when you change one part of the prompt at a time.
