How to Use DomoAI: Text, Image and Video Workflows

Choose the workflow from the asset you already have. Use text-to-video when the shot does not exist, image-to-video when motion needs to begin from a still, and video-to-video when the motion is already correct but the look is wrong. Every path becomes easier when the prompt describes subject, action, camera and lighting in that order.

Decision summary

Start with the right input

For a new idea, start with text. For a character or product that must stay recognizable, start with an image. For an existing shot whose movement is already right, start with the clip. Adding more references does not automatically improve a generation; each reference should answer a specific question about identity, style or motion.

  • Three core input paths
  • Four-part prompt structure
  • Draft before upscaling
  • Review identity, motion and text before delivery
Workflow one

How do you generate video from text?

Write one shot per prompt. Begin with the subject and action, add the camera move, then specify the environment and lighting. Keep style references consistent across shots instead of restating a long list of unrelated adjectives.

Generate a short draft first. Check whether the action completes inside the clip, whether the camera move supports the subject and whether the frame has enough room for captions or product copy. Change one variable at a time when retrying.

Prompt pattern: [subject] [action] in [setting], [camera movement], [lens or framing], [lighting], [style constraints].

Workflow two

How do you animate a still image?

Use a clean, well-lit image with a clear subject boundary. Describe only the motion that should happen, such as a slow push-in, fabric moving in wind, a head turn or a product turntable. If the source image is already detailed, avoid asking the model to redesign the scene.

Character work benefits from a prompt that protects identity: same face, same clothing, same hair and same background. Product work benefits from a locked logo area and a simple camera path. Review hands, edges and small lettering first because those details fail most visibly.

Workflow three

How do you restyle an existing clip?

Start with stable footage that is short enough to evaluate quickly. The source clip defines motion and timing, while a style reference or description defines the new look. Keep the style reference consistent across a sequence so several shots read as one production.

Avoid restyling a shot whose timing is wrong unless you also plan an edit. Video-to-video changes the look; it does not automatically fix pacing, performance or continuity. Clean up cuts and select the right takes before the style pass.

Prompt formula

What makes a useful DomoAI prompt?

A useful prompt is a shot direction, not a keyword pile. Name one subject, one main action and one camera behavior. Add style only after the shot is understandable without it.

Before generating

Which settings should you choose first?

Match aspect ratio to the destination before generation. Vertical formats suit Reels, Shorts and TikTok; landscape suits YouTube, presentations and website heroes. Choose the shortest useful duration for drafts, then increase duration only after the composition works.

Use lower-resolution drafts when the platform supports them, and reserve upscaling for approved takes. This keeps iteration cheap and makes quality decisions easier because you are not polishing a shot that still needs a new prompt.

Troubleshooting

Why did the result miss the prompt?

Most misses come from too many competing actions, an unclear subject, contradictory camera directions or references that point to different styles. Shorten the prompt, remove secondary characters and retry one change at a time.

If the composition is right but motion is weak, describe the start and end state. If identity drifts, add or strengthen the character reference. If the output feels generic, address framing and lighting before adding more style adjectives.

  • Subject drifting: reduce competing actions and strengthen the reference.
  • Camera ignored: put one explicit move before style details.
  • Limbs or edges failing: simplify the pose and widen the framing.
  • Text garbled: add typography in the editor instead of generating it in-frame.
  • Shot too slow: generate a shorter action with a clear endpoint.
Frequently asked questions

What buyers ask before choosing a workflow

Is DomoAI beginner friendly?+

The workflow is approachable because each generation starts from a prompt or an uploaded asset. The difficult part is shot planning and iteration discipline, not the first click.

Can I use an image and a video reference together?+

Some workflows support multiple reference types, but limits depend on the selected model and plan. Check the current input controls before planning a shot that depends on several references.

What resolution should I generate first?+

Use the lowest resolution that still lets you judge composition and motion. Upscale only after the shot is approved.

How long should an AI video clip be?+

For social content, start with a single action that fits in a few seconds. Build longer stories from multiple shots rather than expecting one generation to carry every beat.

Do I still need a video editor?+

Usually yes. Generation creates shots; editing controls timing, sound, captions, transitions and final delivery.
