Step 3: Craft an Effective Prompt
The heart of your video is the prompt. Follow these guidelines:
-
Be specific: “A close-up of a red sports car driving along a coastal highway at sunset.”
-
Include style cues: “In the style of a 1980s action movie trailer.”
-
Use negative prompts to exclude unwanted elements (e.g., “no text overlay”).
“A sleek red sports car zooms down a coastal road at sunset, camera pans from left to right, cinematic lighting, 24fps.”
Why it matters: Detailed prompts yield more accurate, engaging videos.
Step 4: Configure Video Settings
Fine-tune your output using these options:

Configure Video Settings |
-
Aspect Ratio: Choose 16:9, 9:16, or 1:1 to suit your platform
- Duration: Set between 5–30 seconds
- Mode: “Standard” for quick renders or “Professional” for higher fidelity
Adjusting these settings optimizes your video for YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, or any other channel.
Step 5: Generate and Monitor Your Video
With prompt and settings in place:
-
Click Generate Video.
-
Watch the progress bar or status indicator—most clips render in under two minutes.
-
If you hit a credit limit or queue, you’ll see a notification; consider upgrading or waiting.
Note: Rendering times vary by model and server load.
Step 6: Refine with Multi-Elements Editing
Kling AI’s standout Multi-Elements tool lets you tweak individual items in your scene:
-
After generation, click Elements in the sidebar.
-
Upload or select an existing element (person, object, background).
-
Drag it into your timeline and adjust its position, motion path, or duration.
-
Add new text prompts like “Make the car drift at the cliff edge” to re-render just that segment.
This granular control delivers professional-grade results without restarting your whole project. Tom's Guide
Step 7: Preview, Refine, and Download

Click Preview to watch the full video end-to-end.
-
If you spot any issues, adjust the prompt or elements and re-generate specific segments.

Save to your device or share directly via social-share buttons.
