PRACTICAL GUIDE

Get a stronger first result

Three concise patterns for directing Motheia image and video creation. These are working guidelines, not promises that every model will interpret a prompt identically.

01

Write a more predictable image prompt

Describe the result in layers so the model knows what matters most.

  1. Start with the main subject and its defining details.
  2. Add the setting, time of day and lighting direction.
  3. Finish with framing, mood and the visual style you want.

EXAMPLE

A ceramic desk speaker on warm limestone, soft window light from the left, premium product photograph, restrained shadows.

02

Direct motion instead of describing a still

A video prompt should explain what changes during the shot.

  1. Name the subject's movement and the camera movement separately.
  2. Keep a short clip to one clear action and one camera idea.
  3. Use a start frame when composition or identity must stay recognizable.

EXAMPLE

The subject turns toward camera as wind moves the coat; the camera makes a slow push-in with subtle handheld movement.

03

Choose quality with the credit cost in mind

Use inexpensive drafts to find the direction before spending more on the final output.

  1. Draft images are useful for testing composition and prompt wording.
  2. Standard images balance detail and iteration cost.
  3. Video cost varies by resolution; the studio shows the exact amount first.

EXAMPLE

If a job fails, its credits normally come back automatically.

Try one of these patterns in the studio, then change one variable at a time so you can tell what improved the result.
