Prompt

A prompt is the written instruction you give an AI model describing the image or video you want. It is the main control you have: subject, style, lighting, composition and mood all come from the wording.

Models do not read minds; they read prompts. A useful prompt names the subject, the setting, the light, the lens or framing, and the mood — in plain language. "Nice portrait" leaves everything to chance; "studio portrait, soft window light from the left, 85mm lens, muted grey background" leaves almost nothing.

A concrete example: adding "shot on film, slight grain" to the same prompt visibly changes the output — the model has learned what those words look like across millions of captioned images.

How Hermosso uses it: every tool starts from a prompt — the Create studio for images, Text to Video for clips. If you want real examples to steal from, every item in the Made with Hermosso gallery ships with the full prompt that produced it.
