FAQs

How do I specify shot types like wide or close-up in a prompt?

Include the framing and movement directly in your prompt, for example: ‘text to video of a barista pouring latte art, wide establishing shot, slow push-in, then closeup of the crema, soft morning light.’ You can also add angles (over-the-shoulder, top-down) and pacing (fast cuts, 3–5s per shot). For more inspiration, see these tips on ecommerce video best practices.

Can I combine text prompts with photos, links, or documents?

Yes. Add a product link, upload reference images, or attach a brief as a document. Pippit uses these sources to ground your prompt so the generated shots match your brand and context more closely. You can also follow this quick guide to generate and refine story-driven videos.

What aspect ratios and orientations are supported?

Common formats for social and ads are supported, including 9:16 (vertical), 1:1 (square), and 16:9 (landscape). Choose the ratio that fits your channel and specify it in your prompt or settings.

Can I switch between wide and closeup shots within one video?

Yes. Describe the shot sequence in the prompt (e.g., ‘wide establishing shot → medium → closeup detail’) or use the editing options after generation to reorder, trim, and refine framing.

How should I write better prompts for consistent results?

Be specific about subject, style, shot type, lighting, motion, duration, and tone. Provide references (links or images) and avoid conflicting instructions. Start simple, preview, then iterate by adjusting one variable at a time.

What are the export options and quality?

You can preview, make quick edits, and export in HD. Available resolutions and durations may vary by plan and project settings. Check the export panel for the latest options.

Is the generated content okay for commercial use?

You retain rights to your uploads. Usage of generated outputs should follow Pippit's Terms and applicable laws. For branded or commercial campaigns, review licensing requirements and ensure you have rights to any referenced assets.

Do I need to install software to use Pippit?

No installation is required to get started on the web. Log in, add your prompt and assets, generate, then export and share.
