Question

What is wrong with this picture? Firefly generated it from my prompt. I like it very much. But when I try to use it to create a video, FIrefly says NO! I find nothing in the standards info to suggest what is wrong. Any help?

FIrefly generated this image for me. No problem. But when I try to use it to generate a video, FIrefly says NO!. There is nothing in the standards info to suggest what the problem is. Any ideas?

    Oh.N8… Thanks! That did it. I have a lot to learn about writing proper prompts. Is there a usable, easy to read guide anywhere?

    Probably. But also probably of little use. Prompting isn’t a science. There are some common sense suggestions (such as don’t write a detailed two-page script for a five second video, for example, which I see a lot), and it can be helpful to assume that the “intelligence” of AI is at the fourth or fifth grade level, at least when it comes to text to image or video. Be specific...but concise. I once prompted for two beautiful twin sisters and was presented with a pair of identical siamese cats. When making edits to an image (I don’t have a lot of experience when it comes to video), I often qualify my prompts with something along the lines of, “Improve the quality of the man’s hand, with particular emphasis on the fingernails. Leave everything else as is.” If a session goes off the rails (and even the best AI platforms do), delete previous results, refresh the page, and start from scratch.
