Luma Dream Machine: Timeline prompting for controlled motion
Demo summary
The narrator demonstrates 'timeline prompting' by breaking a 15-second clip into specific time chunks (0-5s, 5-10s, 10-15s) to ensure deliberate and calm character movements.
Step-by-step
- Break the clip description into specific time chunks (e.g., 0-5s, 5-10s, 10-15s)
- Write a specific description for what happens within each time chunk on its own line
- Tweak individual lines to fix specific moments without altering the rest of the prompt
Tips
- Use timeline prompting to ensure character movements are calmer and more deliberate
- Give each beat room to breathe by separating descriptions rather than grouping them into one big prompt
Highlights
“so much calmer, so much more deliberate. Each beat gets room to breathe instead of everything fighting for the same two seconds.”
