I put this in the prompt to make an 8 second video. And it will not do it. Keeps giving me an error.

 

Teacher opening classroom door and greeting happy elementary students in morning light, realistic school setting, cinematic camera movement, warm emotional feeling, education commercial style

Text on Screen:
THANK YOU, TEACHERS

Voiceover:
Every day, teachers make a difference.

    Hi Mindeez,

    Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
     

    The reason you weren’t able to generate a video with your prompt is that the scene describes a child environment. Most Firefly models do not generate videos that depict children or child‑like scenes, in order to ensure safe and responsible use of the tool.
     

    While Firefly models and most partner models have restrictions around representing children in video generation, the Runway Gen‑4.5 and Kling 2.5 Turbo models do allow child depiction. Please use these models for your requested generation.
     

    Let us know if you have any other questions, we’ll be glad to help.

    I made a video of a teacher with students and every person in the video was Asian, why?

    Thanks for sharing your experience.

    Firefly generates characters based on a mix of randomness and training data, so if you don’t specify details like diversity or ethnicity, the results may lean in one direction. To guide the output, you can include those details directly in your prompt (for example, “a diverse group of students with different backgrounds”).
     

    If you continue to see results that don’t match your prompt, please share an example, we’d love to look into it further.
