Start with the guide that matches your current problem: writing prompts, planning references, product clips, campaign concepts, motion control, or credit planning.

They help you plan the prompt, references, and output before you generate.

Use an example as a starting structure. Replace the subject, use case, audience, and visual references so the prompt gives you your own result.

Focus on subject clarity, product shape, lighting, camera movement, and the page or campaign where the clip will run.

They help you write clearer prompts and choose the right settings before you generate, so you stop burning credits on blind retries.

Yes. They give you the prompt structures that work on Kavel's current models, focusing on references, model choice and credit use.
