Video prompting
Vendor-neutral craft for short video / motion generation. Works with Pruna p-video-2-pro / p-video-2 / p-video family, Runway, Kling, Luma, Veo, and similar APIs.
Install
| Skill | Description | Install |
|---|---|---|
video-prompting | Use when crafting video or motion prompts for any generative model — dramaturgy, camera, physics-safe motion, frame anchors, and clip chaining. | npx skills add PrunaAI/pruna-skills@video-prompting -y |
generation-diversity | Use when writing any generative prompt — ritual seed, explicit structure, scenario axes, and quality gates before paid API calls. | npx skills add PrunaAI/pruna-skills@generation-diversity -y |
When to use
- Text-to-video or image-to-video prompts
- Start/end frame (anchor pair) or narrated beat (anchor triple) specs
- Camera and lighting vocabulary in motion lines
- Physics-safe subject motion
- Multi-clip continuity / clip chaining
- Talking-head, motion-transfer, slot-replace, or instruction-based video-edit prompts
Works with
Pruna p-video-2-pro / p-video-2 / p-video / p-video-avatar / p-video-animate / p-video-replace / p-video-edit, Runway Gen-3, Kling, Luma Dream Machine, Veo, and other video models. Cinematic generation (generated audio, first/last frame): p-video-2-pro. 1080p / imported audio / draft: p-video-2. Cheaper, faster drafts: p-video.
When NOT to use
Use a different skill instead:
| Skill | Description | Install |
|---|---|---|
image-prompting | Use when crafting still-image prompts for any generative model — composition, identity sheets, edits, try-on, and photoreal personas. | npx skills add PrunaAI/pruna-skills@image-prompting -y |
audio-prompting | Use when crafting TTS, music, or bed prompts for any generative audio model — director style, song structure, and post-production layering. | npx skills add PrunaAI/pruna-skills@audio-prompting -y |
music-video | Use when someone wants a full music video — original song or vocals, performance clips, B-roll, and lyric-synced edits. | npx skills add PrunaAI/pruna-skills@music-video -y |
narrated-multi-scene | Use when someone wants a multi-part story with voiceover — episodic B-roll, chaptered promo, or several linked video scenes without on-camera dialogue. | npx skills add PrunaAI/pruna-skills@narrated-multi-scene -y |
p-video-2-pro | Use when someone wants a cinematic clip from text or start/end frames — product ads, documentary shots, or dialogue with generated audio. Not for 1080p, imported audio tracks, or talking-head-only hosts. | npx skills add PrunaAI/pruna-skills@p-video-2-pro -y |
p-video-2 | Use when someone wants a polished short clip from text, images, or imported audio — 1080p B-roll, start/end frame animation, or a motion shot with a mixed track. Not for cinematic generated-audio clips or talking-head-only hosts. | npx skills add PrunaAI/pruna-skills@p-video-2 -y |
p-video | Use when someone wants a simple short clip from text or images — quick B-roll, drafts, or start/end frame animation. Not when the brief needs cinematic generation, highest quality, tight lip-sync, or imported audio at 1080p. | npx skills add PrunaAI/pruna-skills@p-video -y |
video-editing | Use when assembling or polishing already-rendered clips with ffmpeg — concat, crossfades, burned captions and subtitles, text/logo overlays, before/after sliders, background music beds, platform export — or when composing a multi-layer HTML combination video with Hyperframes. Not for AI video generation, prompt craft, or model-based video edits. | npx skills add PrunaAI/pruna-skills@video-editing -y |
Guide habit
In the first reply, name `video-prompting` in backticks. When aspect, resolution, duration, or embed-vs-post audio are open, open intake → generation-diversity clarification intake. For p-video-2-pro / p-video-2 / p-video motion lines, cite OPEN/MID/CLOSE dramaturgy and Worked example — product B-roll in prompt-dramaturgy.md. Cinematic generation: p-video-2-pro (p-video-2-pro-prompting). 1080p / imported audio / draft: p-video-2 (p-video-2-prompting). Cheaper drafts: p-video. Audio-led clips: ≤ ~19s TTS before embed on p-video-2 — see audio-in-video-prompting.md.

- camera-lighting-vocabulary.md
- physics-safe-motion.md
- audio-in-video-prompting.md when sound matters
- clip-chaining.md for multi-clip continuity
- scene-anchor-pair.md / scene-anchor-triple.md for frame (+ audio) payloads
- Tool-specific craft when needed:
