Now one suggestion that I would have if you want to get to this level of ultra-detailed, I would take this sample, feed it into GPT-5 thinking, ask it to create a general template, and then ramble the scribe using words what I wanted to accomplish with the video, and let it fill in all these details.

So for example, let's say that I was trying to mimic this, but as is the case in reality, I had no idea about things like lighting.

But I could still describe roughly the type of atmosphere that I wanted, or allow the AI to just infer it from my broader ramble about what I was trying to go with overall.

Let it figure out what the bounce is going to look like.

I think that that's a way that you can use AI to help with the prompting itself.

So basically, when it comes to Sora, you have a full range of options.

You can go from extremely loose and letting the AI get creative to extremely detailed, just based on the use case that you're trying to explore.

My guess is that for a lot of use cases, something in the middle

where you follow this type of unit structure with a style reference, a camera setup, a subject action, a camera move, an approach to lighting and a dialogue or sound is going to be the right balance that gets really close adherence to what you're looking for, but also some amount of creative flexibility for the AI to take you in directions that you might not have expected.

Two big keys that I wanted to pull out that ran throughout the prompting guide and which also have been relevant in my own prompting.

First of all, it really does feel like style matters and is going to get you a pretty far away into adherence with what you're looking for.

Think about the style and the vibe that you're trying to set carefully because so much can follow from that.

And secondly, to the extent that you do have a vision in mind, basically what OpenAI's Sora 2 prompting guide is telling us is that there is no such thing as too much specificity.

Be specific, tell it what you want, and see what happens next.

I am super excited to see what you guys all create with Sora 2.

For now, that's going to do it for this episode.

Appreciate you listening as always.

And until next time, be safe and take care of each other.

Peace.
