Question

Why does the image and video generation never produce what I need despite very specific prompts and multiple edits?

First off, I use AI tools all day every day. Prompting is not something I’m new to or bad at. 

That said, no matter how specific I am with my prompts. No matter how many times I edit an image or video. No matter what kind of reference photos I upload. Firefly does not produce usable content. 

Is everyone else experiencing similar difficulties? I have a lot of work to do and not a lot of time. Yet, here I am wasting more of it on Firefly...

    Hey ​@TSG+Organic+Marketing 

    1st, since you know how to use AI very well, help us, help you.

    In cases like this, could you post an example of your prompt? your reference image? What model(s) are you using?
     or a short video of your workflow.

    I have found using simple actionable prompts work well. The more complicated the prompt tends to confuse Firefly. 

    Cheers

    Hi Nate, 

     

    Here are my exact prompts from yesterday’s video attempt. There are Canva links for the results of each prompt.

     

    First Prompt:

    There is a cup of water and pouring into that cup is a stream of omega-3 oils. From the top of the screen they are omega-3 oils and then halfway through the pour it turns into a white powder that falls into the glass of water and easily disperses without any weird clumping or falling to the bottom or anything floating on top. It just goes from oil to powder into the glass of water and dissolves perfectly. 

     

    First wrong result: https://canva.link/tcd2m7iptgikbzk

     

    1st Edit Prompt:
    The oil needs to turn into powder before it hits the water. Make the stream of oil less voluminous. Less powder in the water. No clumps of powder. Powder fully dissolves. 

     

    Second wrong result: https://canva.link/5r16r6o8mwljwke

     

    2nd Edit Prompt:

    The powder begins as omega-3 oil. In the upper right corner of the screen, a small trickle of oil begins to pour. Halfway through the oil stream, it turns into a sprinkling of white powder. The sprinkling of white powder hits the water and dissperses, dissolving completely by the end of the clip.
