10 Tips for Better AI Video Creation

Whether you're creating podcasts, narration videos, or animated storybooks, these proven tips will help you get the most out of TikTomato's AI video generation tools.

1. Start with Clear Objectives

Before you begin, ask yourself:

  • Who is your target audience?
  • What message do you want to convey?
  • What action do you want viewers to take?

Clear objectives lead to better prompts and better results.

2. Write Descriptive Prompts

The quality of your AI-generated content directly correlates with the quality of your prompts.

❌ Vague prompt:

"Make a video about cooking"

✅ Descriptive prompt:

"Create an engaging narration video about 5 quick breakfast recipes for busy professionals, with a friendly and energetic tone, suitable for Instagram Reels"

3. Choose the Right Video Type

TikTomato offers three video types, each suited for different content:

| Type | Best For | |------|----------| | Podcast | Discussions, interviews, debates, explainers | | Narration | Tutorials, product demos, educational content | | Storybook | Children's content, storytelling, entertainment |

4. Leverage AI Voice Selection

Don't just pick any voice—match the voice to your content:

  • Professional content: Choose mature, authoritative voices
  • Casual content: Opt for friendly, conversational tones
  • Children's content: Select warm, expressive voices

5. Optimize for Your Platform

Different platforms have different requirements:

  • TikTok/Reels: Vertical format, fast-paced, under 60 seconds
  • YouTube: Can be longer, more detailed, horizontal format
  • Podcast platforms: Focus on audio quality, longer duration OK

  • Pacing and flow

Your first generation might not be perfect—and that's OK! Use the regenerate feature to:

While AI does the heavy lifting, you can enhance results by:

  • Editing the generated script before video creation

If you're creating a series, keep consistent:

  • Use the same voices across episodes

Track how your AI videos perform:

  • Which topics get more engagement?

Use these insights to continuously improve your content.
