Reference & editing workflows
AI Video First & Last Frame Workflow
A first frame tells the model exactly where to begin. A last frame gives the shot a destination and can become the next clip’s starting reference.
First frame
Readable pose, environment and camera orientation.
Middle action
One motion path that can plausibly connect start and end.
Last frame
Stable, clean and useful as a future continuation anchor.
Chaining
Extract the accepted last frame and feed it into the next shot prompt.
A practical reference workflow
- Identify the exact role of every reference: identity, product, environment, motion, start frame, end frame or edit target.
- Write down the elements that must remain unchanged before describing motion or edits.
- Describe one primary change at a time: action, camera, lighting, background, style or continuation.
- End with a stable target state that can be reviewed, edited or used as the next clip reference.
