How to get the best out of Sora 2
Describe motion explicitly: "slow dolly forward", "static shot", "handheld whip pan". Models can't infer camera moves.
Keep prompts under ~200 characters. Most video engines lose track of detail in long prompts.
Start with a strong opening frame description — it anchors the rest of the clip.
Reference real cinematography styles ("Blade Runner", "Wes Anderson", "Roger Deakins") for instant tone.
