Sora 2 Prompt Generator

Create professional video prompts for OpenAI Sora 2 following official best practices

Video Duration
Shorter videos (4 sec) follow instructions most reliably
Style (most important factor!)
Style should be defined first and determines the entire look

Examples: "90s documentary style", "Epic cinema scene in IMAX format", "Hand-painted 2D/3D animation"

Scene Description
Describe the scene in prose - location, characters, environment, mood
Examples

Be specific: describe colors, textures, light, atmosphere

Cinematography
Camera setting, lens, lighting and mood
Actions
Describe actions as clear beats (e.g. "She turns; dress swings")

For 4-sec clips: 3-5 actions. For 8-sec: 5-8 actions.

Background Sounds
Describe ambient sounds (optional)

Example: "Only natural ambience: light wind, fabric rustling, street noise"
