Start with the whole edit in one prompt. If one part comes back wrong, open that step and use its fixes.

The whole edit in one prompt

Cut my clips into a 60-second art timelapse video for TikTok. Follow this order.
- 0-2s: blank surface, first mark
- 2-40s: the whole session at one speed
- 40-45s: last strokes, same speed
- 45-50s: still of the finished piece
Pacing: one speed, 30x to 120x.
Open with this. None needed beyond the first strokes appearing fast.
Music: ambient or lo-fi, no drop needed.
Avoid these. Hand blocking the piece. Autofocus hunting. Speeding 4 hours into 15 seconds so nothing reads.
When you're done, list what you changed with timestamps so I can check.

One step at a time

What to say when it's off

  • Rough cut. Too long. "Cut it to 45 seconds. Drop the weakest part first."
  • Music. Wrong mood. "Something slower, around 80 BPM, piano, no drums."
