Overview

概述

Kling 3.0 is a unified multimodal video model. It understands cinematic direction, not keyword lists. Write prompts like a director — describe what the audience sees, hears, and feels over time.
Core shift: Description → Direction. Think "direct a scene" not "describe an image."
Kling 3.0是一款统一的多模态视频模型。它能理解电影化导演指令,而非关键词列表。要像导演一样撰写提示词——描述观众随时间推移看到、听到和感受到的内容。
核心转变: 描述 → 导演式指令。要思考“执导一个场景”而非“描述一张图片”。

}

Step 1: Determine Generation Mode

步骤1:确定生成模式

Ask the user which mode:
  • Text-to-Video — prompt from scratch
  • Image-to-Video — animate a reference image
  • Multi-Shot Sequence — 2-6 shot storyboard (up to 15s)
  • Keyframe Transition — start frame → end frame with interpolated motion
询问用户选择哪种模式:
  • Text-to-Video — 从零开始生成提示词
  • Image-to-Video — 为参考图片添加动画效果
  • Multi-Shot Sequence — 2-6镜头的故事板(最长15秒)
  • Keyframe Transition — 从起始帧到结束帧的插值运动过渡

Step 2: Gather Scene Details

步骤2:收集场景细节

Ask about each element (adapt questions to mode):
ElementQuestionWhy it matters
SubjectWho/what is the focus? Specific appearance details?Anchors consistency — define distinguishing traits early
ActionWhat happens? Describe the timeline (first → then → finally)Kling 3.0 excels at sequential action over 15s arcs
EnvironmentWhere? Be specific (not "a street" but "narrow Tokyo alley, steam from grates")Grounds the scene physically
CameraShot type and movement? (See camera reference below)Cinematic language produces far better results
LightingWhat light sources? Name them specifically"Flickering neon" beats "dramatic lighting"
Mood/EmotionWhat should the audience feel?Drives color grade, pacing, music
AudioDialogue? Ambient sound? Music?Kling 3.0 generates native audio + lip-sync
DurationHow long? (3-15s)Longer = describe progression over time
Aspect Ratio16:9 / 9:16 / 1:1 / 21:9?16:9 cinematic, 9:16 social, 21:9 ultra-wide
Image-to-Video: Focus on how the scene evolves from the image — movement, camera motion, environmental change. The model preserves identity/layout from the source.
Keyframes: Ask for start and end frame descriptions. Frames should match in color, style, and lighting. Prompt sparingly — Kling infers motion well.
Multi-Shot: Define each shot separately with its own framing, subject, action, and duration. Label shots explicitly.
询问每个元素的相关信息(根据模式调整问题):
元素问题重要性
主体焦点是谁/是什么?有哪些具体的外观细节?确保一致性——尽早定义独特特征
动作发生了什么?描述时间线(首先→然后→最后)Kling 3.0擅长处理15秒时长内的连续动作
环境场景在哪里?要具体(不要说“一条街道”,要说“东京狭窄小巷,下水道口冒着蒸汽”)让场景有真实的物理依托
镜头镜头类型和运动方式?(见下方镜头参考)电影化语言能产出更优质的结果
灯光有哪些光源?具体说出名称“闪烁的霓虹灯”比“戏剧性灯光”效果更好
氛围/情绪观众应该感受到什么?决定色彩分级、节奏和音乐风格
音频有对话?环境音?音乐?Kling 3.0可原生生成音频+唇形同步效果
时长视频时长?(3-15秒)时长越长,越要描述随时间的变化过程
宽高比16:9 / 9:16 / 1:1 / 21:9?16:9适合电影,9:16适合社交平台,21:9为超宽屏
Image-to-Video模式: 重点描述场景如何从图片演变——运动方式、镜头移动、环境变化。模型会保留源图的主体和布局。
关键帧模式: 询问起始帧和结束帧的描述。帧的色彩、风格和灯光要匹配。提示词要简洁——Kling能很好地推断帧间的运动。
多镜头模式: 单独定义每个镜头,包含各自的取景、主体、动作和时长。明确标注每个镜头。

Step 3: Assemble the Prompt

步骤3:组合提示词

Use the Master Formula:
[Scene/Environment] + [Subject & Appearance] + [Action Timeline] + [Camera Movement] + [Audio & Atmosphere] + [Technical Specs]
Writing rules:
  • Use cinematic motion verbs: dolly push, whip-pan, crash zoom, rack focus, tracking shot — NOT "moves" or "goes"
  • Name real light sources: neon signs, candlelight, golden hour, LED panels — NOT "dramatic lighting"
  • Include texture for credibility: grain, lens flares, condensation, fabric sheen, smoke, sweat
  • Describe temporal flow: beginning → middle → end
  • Keep to 1-3 rich sentences per shot (specificity > length)
  • For dialogue: use character labels, assign voice tone/emotion, use transitional words ("Immediately," "Pause")
使用通用公式
[场景/环境] + [主体与外观] + [动作时间线] + [镜头运动] + [音频与氛围] + [技术参数]
撰写规则:
  • 使用电影化运动动词:推进镜头、快速摇镜、急推变焦、焦点切换、跟拍——不要用“移动”或“走”
  • 说出真实的光源名称:霓虹灯、烛光、黄金时刻、LED面板——不要用“戏剧性灯光”
  • 添加细节增强真实感:颗粒感、镜头光晕、冷凝水、织物光泽、烟雾、汗水
  • 描述时间流:开始→中间→结束
  • 每个镜头保持1-3句丰富的描述(具体性>长度)
  • 对话部分:使用角色标签,指定语气/情绪,使用过渡词(“立刻”、“停顿”)

Step 4: Present & Refine

步骤4:呈现与优化

Present the assembled prompt. Ask if they want to:
  • Adjust any element
  • Add a negative prompt
  • Generate variations (different duration, different camera, different mood)
展示组合好的提示词。询问用户是否需要:
  • 调整任何元素
  • 添加负向提示词
  • 生成变体(不同时长、不同镜头、不同氛围)

Start & End Frame Tips

起始帧与结束帧技巧

  • Frames should match in color palette, style, and lighting
  • Identical start/end frames = seamless loop
  • Prompt sparingly — Kling infers motion between frames well
  • Simple camera directions: zoom in/out, pan left/right, tilt up/down
  • 5s for dynamic transitions, 10s for complex transformations
  • Start frame aspect ratio drives the whole clip
  • 帧的调色板、风格和灯光要匹配
  • 完全相同的起始/结束帧=无缝循环
  • 提示词要简洁——Kling能很好地推断帧间的运动
  • 简单的镜头指令:放大/缩小,左右摇镜,上下摇镜
  • 动态过渡用5秒,复杂变形用10秒
  • 起始帧的宽高比决定整个视频的比例
