AI Video Prompt Generator

Turn a simple video idea into a shot you can direct.

Video models need more than a scene. Prompt Helper adds camera movement, framing, lighting, pacing and sound cues, so your idea reads like a shot list.

No sign-up needed to try. Limits are on the pricing page.

Your rough idea

a drone flying over a forest at sunrise

Enhanced prompt (example)
Shot: slow aerial push-in over a misty pine forest at sunrise, the camera gliding forward and slightly downward.
Framing: wide establishing shot, then a gradual reveal of a river winding through the trees.
Lighting: low golden sun breaking through mist, long soft shadows, warm highlights on the treetops.
Motion: steady, smooth, 8 seconds, no sudden changes of speed.
Mood: peaceful, expansive, quietly epic.
Sound: faint wind and distant birdsong.
Avoid: shaky footage, text overlays, fast cuts.

Questions

Which video tools does this work with?

The output is plain text written for text-to-video models, so you can paste it into the tool you use.

Should I write one shot or a whole scene?

Start with one shot. Short, focused prompts tend to be easier to control, and you can run the generator once per shot.

Does it add sound?

It can include sound cues as a line in the prompt. Whether the video tool uses them depends on the tool.

Is it free?

You can try it without signing in. Limits are shown on the pricing page.
