WAN 2.2 Spicy prompt guide
WAN 2.2 works best when the starting frame is already correct and the prompt describes one clean burst of motion.
Prompt formula
Subject action + short motion sequence + one camera move + one supporting motion
Nine rules
- 1
Keep it short
Aim for one compact paragraph. Remove static details already visible in the image and spend the prompt on motion.
One compact instruction is enough: wave, eye contact, and smile. The image already supplies the room, outfit, and framing.
Prompt: Give a warm, playful wave with natural eye contact, a soft smile, and smooth realistic hand movement.
- 2
Explain the action
Describe the movement as a short process: what starts moving, how it changes, and where it ends.
The movement has a readable order: neutral expression, laugh, glance, return. It is a sequence, not a list of separate scenes.
Prompt: She breaks into a natural laugh, briefly glances away, then looks back to the camera.
- 3
State the camera path
Say exactly how the camera moves. A slow push-in, pullback, left pan, or tracking move is clearer than generic cinematic language.
A tracking path pairs the subject's forward movement with the camera's backward movement, preserving the framing.
Prompt: Camera tracks backward smoothly, keeping her centered as she walks forward.
- 4
Limit competing motion
Use one main action and one supporting environmental motion. Busy scenes are more likely to lose smoothness or prompt adherence.
The lean is the main action. Eye contact, smile, and breathing support it; nothing else competes for the five-second clip.
Prompt: Lean slightly closer with warm eye contact, a subtle smile, and natural breathing.
Copy these patterns
Replace the subject and motion with details from your starting image.
Subtle portrait
He looks up, blinks once, and gives a slight smile. His jacket moves gently in the breeze. The camera slowly pushes closer while the background remains stable.
Walking shot
She walks toward the camera at a steady pace as her hair and coat move naturally. The camera tracks backward smoothly and keeps her centered.
Atmosphere
Neon signs flicker while thin fog drifts across the street. Reflections shimmer on the wet pavement. The camera makes a slow forward push.
Know the limits
- The Remix.Camera WAN 2.2 workflow is fixed at five seconds, so the action must fit inside one short beat.
- Complex scenes and several simultaneous actions can reduce smoothness. Simplify the movement before adding detail.
- Do not expect the prompt to redesign the source frame. Fix identity, pose, framing, and text before animation.
