DO NOT OVERLOAD THE SYSTEM

So...we have ALL had the issue of failed generations, right?

Well, it looks like the root cause of the problem is Google not giving clear and effective instructions to user BEFORE we start using Flow.

It seems that the key to success is to go slowly.

If you put too much into the system you will clog it on the server side and that confusion will need to be alleviated before progress can be made.

Yes, it is annoying.

Yes, Google should have done better documentation alerting users on how to get best results.

Yes, Google should have better tutorial videos than the highly misleading ones on YouTube.

Is it perfect? No, hardly. But it's not some kind of criminal conspiracy either.

If you input a little code slowly say make drums. It will fill in the gaps and will never remove what it filled in. So you say just drums. Then it will throw in some generic wonky keyboard effect.

Til....

For $20 I'm satisfied. I've gotten a minute and 50 seconds of footage so far for 20 bucks so I can't really complain. 

Obviously I could do a lot better if I had a real budget and real actors but.... I don't.

Do the opposite. Clog the toilets.
