Tips
- 1Specify the exact species and breed: Instead of 'dog', try 'Golden Retriever puppy' for more accurate results.
- 2Use action verbs to describe behavior: 'Leaping gazelle', 'sleeping cat', 'hunting owl' adds dynamism.
- 3Detail the environment and interaction: 'Lioness stalking prey in tall grass' is more effective than just 'lion in grass'.
- 4Experiment with lighting for mood: 'Golden hour backlight' for warmth, 'dramatic chiaroscuro' for intensity.
- 5Combine animal subjects for compelling narratives: 'A fox and a rabbit sharing a peaceful moment' can create unique scenes.
