- Pick your model's tab — the JSON re-shapes itself to that model's block order and limits.
- Click any green value to edit it in place — swap the subject, setting, or style for your own.
- Copy and paste the JSON as your prompt in the tool — links below.

- Native audio: describe dialogue, ambient sound and music directly in the audio field.

- Write the action field as a shot note, not a keyword list.

} - Use a strict block order: CAMERA -> SUBJECT -> ACTION -> ENVIRONMENT -> LIGHTING -> STYLE.
- Keep the camera block to a shot type plus one movement; stacking moves degrades output.

} - Runway recommends clear, direct language; text-to-video should describe both visual elements and motion.
- Image-to-video prompts should focus on describing the motion of the scene.

What each block does
| Block | Purpose |
|---|---|
| camera | Shot framing and movement. One movement per clip reads best on every current model. |
| lighting | Light source, quality and shadow behavior. The single highest-leverage block for realism. |
| style | Aesthetic direction: film stock, color palette, references, tone. |
