Most people don’t need “prompt engineering.” They need templates.
So here are 25 practical Wan 2.7 prompt templates you can copy and adapt. They’re written to match what wins in video generation:
- clear action
- clear camera behavior
- simple scene logic
How to Customize Templates (Without Breaking Them)
Change one thing at a time:
- swap the subject
- swap the location
- swap the camera move
- swap the lighting
Don’t rewrite the entire prompt on every attempt. That’s how you lose the signal.
10 Text-to-Video (T2V) Templates
-
Cinematic push-in
A [subject] [action], [environment], the camera slowly pushes in, cinematic lighting, shallow depth of field.
-
Tracking walk
A [subject] walks forward through [location], tracking shot, steady camera, natural motion, realistic lighting.
-
Orbit reveal
The camera orbits around a [subject] as they [action], [time of day], cinematic color grading.
-
Product turntable
A [product] slowly rotates on a turntable, studio lighting, clean background, sharp details, smooth motion.
-
Drone descend
A drone shot slowly descends over [landscape], morning fog, wide shot, smooth cinematic movement.
-
Hands craft close-up
Close-up of hands [action], soft studio light, macro detail, the camera stays steady, smooth motion.
-
Neon rain street
A [subject] [action] on a neon-lit street after rain, reflections in puddles, slow pan right, cinematic.
-
Slow pull back reveal
The camera slowly pulls back to reveal [environment] as a [subject] [action], dramatic lighting.
-
Static camera micro-motion
Static camera portrait of a [subject], subtle breathing motion, natural blink, hair gently moves, soft light.
-
High-energy action (non-graphic)
A fast-paced action sequence of a [subject] [action], handheld camera feel, dynamic lighting, cinematic.
10 Image-to-Video (I2V) Templates
For I2V, assume your image already defines the look. Focus on motion.
- Head turn + push-in
The subject slowly turns to face the camera, hair moves slightly in the wind, the camera slowly pushes in.
- Smile + blink
A soft smile forms, natural blink, subtle breathing motion, static camera, consistent lighting.
- Wind and fabric
A gentle wind moves hair and clothing, small natural shifts, static camera, cinematic atmosphere.
- Camera pan
The camera slowly pans left while the subject remains steady, subtle environmental motion, consistent light.
- Light shift
Sunlight shifts slightly through clouds, soft shadows move, the subject stays consistent, slow push-in.
- Particles
Dust particles float in the air, subtle motion, shallow depth of field, the camera remains steady.
- Eye movement
The subject’s eyes shift to look toward the camera, small facial micro-movements, consistent identity.
- Background parallax
The camera moves slightly to create gentle parallax, subject remains stable, smooth motion.
- Water ripple
Subtle water ripples and reflections move, soft wind, static camera, cinematic.
- Fabric close-up
Close-up motion of fabric as the subject moves slightly, soft lighting, smooth motion.
5 “Fix-It” Templates (When Output Is Bad)
- Stop random camera
Static camera. Only the subject moves. Smooth motion. No sudden zooms.
- Reduce drift
The subject remains the same person throughout. No identity change. Subtle motion only.
- More motion
Clear action with visible movement: [action], [camera move], smooth motion, cinematic pacing.
- Cleaner look
High quality, sharp details, realistic lighting, smooth motion, no text, no watermark.
- Product clarity
Clean studio background, soft box lighting, sharp edges, smooth rotation, premium commercial look.
