How to prompt with Spark 1.0

A prompt is a text that guides the AI in clipping your video. The Spark 1.0 model allows you to precisely extract the clips you need by simply describing scenes, actions, emotions, or sounds. Explaining the moments you want to the Spark model is one of the most powerful (yet simple) ways to clip whatever you want.

Spark prompts are best when describing the clip content

To clip out anything in your video, focus on writing prompts that clearly describe the specific moments, scenes, actions, characters, or emotions you're looking for.

  • Find a moment/ scene

✓"Find the scene where the dog swims."

✓"Find the sunset scene"

  • Find action

✓"Find the moment where the car crashes"

✓"Find the scene where the dog jumps"

  • Find emotion

✓"Show me the scene where the penguin mother feeding her baby."

✓"Extract emotional moments in the movie"

  • Find character

✓ "Find scenes with [character's name]."

✓"Find Bob minion in the video"

Remember, the more specific and detailed your prompts are, the better results you'll get.

Spark prompts are not conversational

Other AI-centric services you've encountered may encourage you to use a conversational manner of prompting in order to achieve what you want. Spark doesn't require a conversational style of prompting. You can be direct and specific in your requests.

Avoid:

X"Can you clip out the video of dog swimming?"

X"Can you find the funny part?"

Instead,try:

✓"Find the scene where the dog swims."

✓"Extract all the funny moments."

Spark prompts are not command-based

Spark is designed to understand and analyze video content based on your prompts, not to follow direct editing commands.

Some examples of what this may look like:

X "Add B-rolls to this clip."

X "Change the subtitle color to red."

Spark prompts do not yet understand negative prompts

Negative prompts are a common feature in many AI models, allowing users to specify traits they don't want to see in the results. However, Spark currently doesn't support negative prompts.

Here are some examples of negative prompts:

X "Do not clip out boring moments"

X "Avoid low resolution part"
