🎥 Pro Tip: Credit pricing for each model will differ. The Akool model is the most affordable, while not sacrificing quality!

Step 3: Prompt Your Video

 

  • Be specific – Describe the scene, motion, or emotion clearly (e.g., “woman smiling and waving in slow motion”).

  • Use action words – Add verbs like “walking,” “turning,” “laughing,” or “blinking” for movement.

  • Mention style/tone – Specify if you want something cinematic, realistic, cartoonish, dramatic, etc.

  • Control the mood – Add descriptors like “joyful,” “mysterious,” or “professional” to shape the vibe.

  • Set the context – Include setting elements like “studio lighting,” “sunset background,” or “city street.”

🌐 Pro Tip: Start your prompt with the desired action first, then describe the subject!

Step 4: Choose Audio & Negative Prompts

 

  1. Describe the audio in the prompt or upload your own.
  2.  Use negatives like “no glitch,” “no blur,” or “no distortion” to keep the video clean.
  3. Add phrases like “no extra arms,” “no exaggerated expressions,” or “no cartoon effects” to improve realism and consistency.

Step 5: Generate!

  1. Once satisfied, choose your desired quality!
