Hotshot
Hotshot Prompt Guide - How to Prompt?
Hotshot excels at creating videos of people, animals, and nature.
For the best animal generations, we suggest prefixing animals with anthropomorphic like an anthropomorphic hippo is watching tv.
Hotshot currently struggles to generate things involving extreme motion, like sports, acrobatics, or complex physics.
For the best results, prompt Hotshot like:
[subject] [what they are wearing] [what they are doing] [where they are]. [misc details] .
For example: a man is wearing a blue sweatshirt and headphones and sitting on a subway next to the window and listening to music. the man is smiling.
By default, Hotshot “enhances prompts” by using an LLM to add details to your prompts automatically. After a generation is complete, you can see what the expanded prompt was by hovering over the info icon at the bottom right of a post. Like this:
If the enhanced prompt didn’t capture quite what you were looking for or dropped some of your details, you can always copy it, edit what you want, and paste it back in the search box and re-run your generation.
If you have a really granular, detailed, long prompt already, you can skip enhance prompts altogether by unchecking the “Enhance Prompt” checkbox under the search box. Like this:
In general, you will likely get better results if you’re specific about:
Subject: a bearded 20 year old man, a blonde middle aged woman , a golden doodle
Wardrobe: wearing a blue turtleneck, wearing a pink sweatshirt that says "NYC", wearing a polka dot sundress
Action: walking, baking cookies , laughing
Environment: through a crowded nyc street , in the kitchen , in their messy bedroom
camera shots: fpv drone , close up, high angle , over the shoulder
misc keywords: cinematic
