Video Generator Best Practices

This guide explains how Nomi’s video feature works and how to write prompts that produce clearer motion.

What it does

• Creates ~5-second videos from images in your Nomi’s album, including selfies, art, and group images.
• You can start from the art palette by choosing Create Video, or from an enlarged image by selecting Turn This Image Into A Video.

How to create

1. Open your Nomi’s art palette dropdown, choose Create Video, and select a photo.
2. Select Turn This Image Into A Video.
3. Write a short prompt describing the motion you want to see.
4. Choose between Standard Definition (SD) and High Definition (HD).
5. Select Create Video. You’ll receive a notification when it’s finished, and the video will appear in your album.

Prompting basics

• Describe motion or actions rather than static details, such as “turns and waves” or “camera pushes in.”
• Keep it simple!
• If needed, describe motion sequentially, such as “stands up, then waves.”
• Emphasis weights using parentheses or numbers have little effect in video and may introduce distortion.
• Avoid negative prompts, since they may be treated like normal prompt content in video.

Choose a good starting image

• Pick a clear image that already looks close to the scene you want.
• Faces that are too small may look less realistic.

Timing and workflow

• Video generation takes longer than image generation, but you can keep chatting or generating selfies and art while it runs.
• Your finished video will be saved to the album.
