Prompting Best Practices for Wan 2.5
- Step 1
Be explicit about camera and subject motion
State the action and the camera path: ‘subject turns toward window; slow push‑in from low angle; soft handheld micro‑shake’. Clear verbs produce clean motion.
- Step 2
Anchor lighting, color, and mood
Short anchors like ‘golden hour rim‑light’, ‘studio softbox’, or ‘neon magenta/cyan’ help maintain consistent tone across frames.
- Step 3
Use audio to set pacing
Uploading VO or music lets Wan 2.5 align motion timing. For speech, keep cadence moderate; for music, favor clear beats over busy percussion.
- Step 4
Iterate with short takes
Validate style and motion with 5–6s drafts, then extend to 10s or render multiple complementary shots for editorial assembly.
- Step 5
Use negatives to suppress artifacts
Try ‘flicker, jitter, warping, compression artifacts’ to curb edge cases without sacrificing detail.
- Step 6
Structure your prompt like a shot list
Subject, action, camera path, lighting, grade. Example: ‘presenter smiles; gentle push‑in; studio key with soft rim; neutral corporate grade’.
- Step 7
Feed I2V with a clean reference frame
Use a sharp, well‑lit portrait or product still with clear silhouette. Avoid motion blur in the start frame to maximize identity retention.
- Step 8
Reserve safe space for captions
For vertical clips, keep important details away from the bottom third to preserve room for subtitles or UI.

About Wan 2.5
Wan 2.5 is Alibaba Cloud’s just‑released image‑to‑video and text‑to‑video model on DashScope, designed to help teams produce short, polished videos at scale. It combines practical outputs (480p/720p/1080p; 5s/10s) with one‑pass audio/video synchronization and multilingual prompt understanding so you can move from idea to publish‑ready clip in minutes.
Why one‑pass A/V sync matters
Traditional workflows require manual voice alignment or separate lipsync passes. Wan 2.5 aligns visuals to voice or music timing during generation, producing natural lip shapes and pacing without extra steps.
Creative control with concise prompts
Use film‑literate language for predictable motion and composition. Combine lens and camera notes (e.g., ‘50mm normal, slow push‑in’) with lighting anchors and a simple grade (‘soft teal‑orange’, ‘studio high‑key’).
A workflow built for iteration
Draft at 5–6s to lock look and motion, then extend or render adjacent coverage. Assemble multiple short shots for a premium feel and fewer artifacts than a single long take.
Responsible use and quality
Respect likeness rights, platform policies, and regional content guidelines. Keep motion simple when syncing to fast speech or dense music so lips remain readable.
Who benefits from Wan 2.5 Video Generator?
Marketing teams ship localized explainers on tight deadlines. Global enterprises roll out multilingual training. Creators craft YouTube intros and shorts. E‑commerce teams produce product loops. If you need fast, polished clips, Wan 2.5 delivers.

Tips for natural lip‑sync
Record VO at moderate pace with clear diction. Avoid heavy sibilance, extreme tempo, or overlapping music vocals. Keep studio lighting neutral for readable mouth shapes.
Small‑screen readability
For vertical formats, prioritize medium framing, stable composition, and high contrast. Reserve lower third for captions. Use subtle camera moves to avoid motion overwhelm.
From prompt to publish
Start with a concise prompt, add audio if needed, choose 720p or 1080p depending on destination, and iterate quickly. Export and add captions or branding in your editor.
