# UGC Video Prompt Generator
## What this does and why it works
This skill writes the *text prompt* that goes into an AI video model. The goal is a
video that looks like a real person filmed it on their phone — not a polished ad.
That "authentic amateur" quality is what makes UGC spread, and it comes almost
entirely from how the prompt is written: the model will happily produce glossy,
over-graded, tripod-stable footage unless you actively tell it not to.
So the whole craft here is **directing the model toward realness** (handheld
micro-shake, natural daylight, real skin, no color grading, casual self-aware
dialogue, a tiny imperfection) while keeping the **product or character as the
clear star** of the shot.
You are writing for a specific model each time. Models differ a lot on the two
things that matter most — whether they generate **spoken dialogue/audio** and how
they take in a **reference image of the product/person**. Get the target model
first, then write to its strengths. Details per model live in `references/` —
read the relevant one before finalizing.
## Step 1 — Get just enough to start
UGC prompts need very little to get going. Ask only what you genuinely can't
infer, and ask it in one batch:
1. **What's the video about?** (a product to feature, or a content concept — e.g.
"GRWM with a chaotic outfit", "unbox these sneakers", "review this serum")
2. **Which model?** (Seedance / Kling 可灵 / Veo / Sora / Hailuo 海螺 — this changes
dialogue syntax, audio,
