Reference
This video to prompt generator workflow shows how RefPrompt turns a clip into reusable creative direction. Instead of describing one still frame, RefPrompt extracts camera movement, subject action, timing, shot order, visual style, and uncertainty notes from the video itself.
RefPrompt turns a video into prompt sections: overall scene summary, camera movement, subject action, timing, transitions, style cues, uncertainty notes, model-specific output, and negative constraints.
What this workflow covers
Use this video to prompt generator page when you need a reference image, extracted art direction, a still-image prompt, a video prompt, a Midjourney version, a RefPrompt Video version, and a focused negative prompt in one copy-ready workflow.
Use your own reference
Use this video to prompt generator workflow with an image in the free web tool, or use the Chrome extension on an image or video already open in your browser.
Style Breakdown
The breakdown focuses on what makes video different from image prompting: time, motion, camera behavior, continuity, and shot order.
Image Prompt
The still prompt creates a visual metaphor for the feature.
Dark creator desk with a monitor showing abstract video frame sequences, blank timeline strips, compact control surface, cool monitor glow, professional AI video analysis workflow, no readable text, no logos.Video Prompt
The video prompt describes the feature output.
Analyze a short reference clip and produce a structured AI video prompt. Include overall summary, shot order, camera movement, subject action, timing, transitions, lighting, style, continuity rules, and a focused negative prompt for likely video artifacts.Midjourney Version
Midjourney can create a still visual for the workflow.

Use this as the target output structure for uploaded clips.
Turn this video into a prompt with sections: scene summary, timestamped shot breakdown, camera movement, subject motion, environment, lighting, transitions, style cues, continuity rules, uncertainty notes, and negative prompt.Result & Limits
The reference visual represents a real video workflow: multiple frames, changing scenes, a timeline strip, and a control surface. A video prompt must preserve sequence logic, not just describe one attractive frame.
Prompt used in this case
The prompt asks RefPrompt to extract overall summary, shot order, camera movement, subject motion, atmosphere, timing, transitions, and negative constraints from the uploaded clip.
Result read
The generated workflow visual communicates clip-to-prompt extraction without fake UI labels. It is useful for explaining how a video becomes a structured prompt that can be reused in Kling, Runway, Veo, Pika, or other video models.
Negative Prompt
Protect generated videos from common clip-recreation errors.
jitter, flicker, warped objects, identity drift, changing background, jump cuts, unstable camera, motion blur artifacts, extra objects, fake text, inconsistent lighting, low-resolution frames.CTA
Use the same page structure inside RefPrompt: start from a visual reference, then copy the prompt version that fits the tool and channel.
Try this workflow with RefPrompt.A video to prompt generator analyzes a clip and turns its camera movement, motion, timing, visual style, and continuity into structured prompt language.
Image-to-prompt describes one frame. Video-to-prompt also describes what changes over time: camera movement, subject action, shot order, and transitions.
Yes. RefPrompt is built to turn short video references into reusable prompts for AI video and image generation workflows.
