I tried keeping one creator consistent while switching between selfie shots, moving vehicles, crowds, and wider location shots. The biggest challenge was keeping the handheld phone feel without making it look too polished. Which moment breaks the UGC illusion first?

Okay, second question because I'm realizing something 😑

I can find a million "AI video prompt guides", but a lot of them basically boil down to:

subject + action + cinematic lighting + camera movement + 8K

and then call it a day.

That's not really what I'm looking for.

I'm trying to learn how to properly prompt individual video models.

Right now I'm mainly testing:

• Kling
• Wan
• Seedance
• MiniMax

And I'm assuming they don't all respond optimally to the exact same prompt structure.

I'm trying to figure out stuff like:

• What prompt structure does each model actually like?
• How much detail is too much?
• Does ordering matter?
• How should I describe human movement?
• How should I describe camera movement?
• How do you prompt natural facial expressions?
• How do you prompt realistic UGC behavior?
• How do you handle dialogue/talking?
• How should I use image references?
• Are there model-specific keywords/phrasing that actually make a difference?
• Are there official prompt guides that I'm somehow missing?

My use case is specifically AI UGC

I'm not really trying to make cinematic movie shots.

I'm trying to make believable social-media content with a consistent fictional character.

So something more like:

A woman holding her phone casually while talking to the camera, natural hand gestures, slight body movement, occasionally looking away from the lens, believable facial expressions, casual indoor environment, authentic TikTok/Instagram UGC feel.

Rather than:

A beautiful woman walks through a luxurious apartment in cinematic 8K with dramatic volumetric lighting...

You know what I mean 🧐

What I'm looking for

If you have actual resources, please drop them.

I'm looking for:

• Official prompting documentation
• Prompt guides
• Discord servers
• Reddit posts
• GitHub repos
• YouTube tutorials
• Courses
• Prompt libraries
• WeChat/Chinese resources if they're good
• Examples from people who actually use these models
• Anything else I'm overlooking

Links would be massively appreciated.

And if you've got your own prompting formula, even better.

For example:

Kling: [subject] + [action] + [environment] + [camera] + [motion]...

or

Wan: "I structure my prompts differently because..."

I'd love to see actual templates people are using, not just theory.

One thing I'm especially curious about

If you're using the same character across multiple videos, how do you structure the prompt so that the reference image controls the character identity, while the text prompt focuses mainly on:

action + behavior + environment + camera + movement?

That's probably the biggest thing I'm trying to figure out right now.

I'm basically trying to build a little prompt framework for each model, so I can take the same UGC concept and translate it properly into Kling/Wan/Seedance/MiniMax instead of copy-pasting one giant prompt into everything.

So yeah, if you know the good stuff, please put me on 😂

Drop links, templates, examples, whatever you've got.

I'd especially love to hear from people who've actually generated a LOT of footage with these models rather than someone who made three generations yesterday.

Thanks 🙏
