Tips for Better Kling AI Videos
- Describe motion, not just the scene: Kling needs verbs — “walks”, “turns”, “falls”, “flows”. A prompt with no motion word gives a nearly still video.
- One main motion per prompt: asking for five movements at once usually breaks the video. Keep one hero motion and let the rest stay natural.
- Add a speed word: “slowly”, “gently” or “quickly” controls the pace — slow motion looks premium, quick motion looks viral.
- Start from a sharp photo: blurry or dark photos give shaky motion. Use a clear, well-lit image.
