How to Write a Great Kling 3 Standard Prompt

Kling 3.0 Prompting Guide

Kling 3 Standard performs best with shot-based direction: clear framing, one action per shot, explicit motion, and (if audio is on) short dialogue plus minimal sound cues.

Tip: duration + aspect ratio are set in the UI — your prompt controls subject, action, camera, lighting, style, and sound.

Quick prompt (fast iteration)

Use 1–2 sentences when you want variations.

Quick = variations. Use for fast iteration.

Template (copy/paste)

[One subject] [one visible action] in [setting], [framing + one camera move], [lighting/style].
Audio (optional): [ambience + 1 SFX cue OR one short line].
Negative: no text, no logos, no subtitles/overlays.

Example

Handheld smartphone UGC clip of a woman unboxing a new skincare bottle at a kitchen table. She peels the seal, smiles, and turns the bottle toward camera. Soft window daylight, natural colors, subtle room tone + packaging crinkle.

Structured prompt (best for reliable results)

Separate information so the model can follow it consistently.

Structured = consistency. Use when you need reliable results.

Template (copy/paste)

Scene anchors:
[Subject + wardrobe/props + 2–3 environment anchors.]

Shots (multi-shot):
Shot 1 (0–5s): [framing + action + one camera move]
Shot 2 (5–10s): [framing + action + one camera move]
Shot 3 (10–15s): [final action/reveal + settle or end frame]

Elements (optional):
@Element1 = [main character]
@Element2 = [prop/product]

Audio (optional):
Dialogue: <<<voice_1>>> “Short line.”
Ambience + 1–2 SFX cues. Keep it minimal.

Constraints:
No logos. No readable text. No subtitles/overlays.

Pro prompt (ultra-specific "film crew brief")

Use this when you need a very specific cinematic look or continuity across shots.

Pro = control. Use for precise, repeatable looks.

Template (copy/paste)

Director brief:
[Goal + vibe + intended audience.]

Continuity (repeat across shots):
- Subject identity + wardrobe/props
- Location + time + 3 visual anchors
- Lighting + palette anchors
- Lens feel + one camera move per shot

Multi-shot plan (up to 15s total):
Shot 1: [framing + action + camera]
Shot 2: [framing + action + camera]
Shot 3: [framing + action + camera]
(optional) Shot 4–6: [only if needed]

Elements:
@Element1 = [character]
@Element2 = [product/prop]

Audio (if on):
Dialogue: <<<voice_1>>> “One short line.”
Ambience + 1–2 SFX cues + optional music vibe.

Negative:
No text, no logos, no subtitles/overlays, no jump cuts.

Storyboard prompt (multi-shot / shot list)

Use this when you want a mini-story in one clip. A storyboard prompt (aka multi-shot / shot list prompt) gives clear timing, camera direction, and continuity. Also called shot-list or sequenced prompts.

Storyboard = shot timing. Use for multi-shot beats.

Template (copy/paste)

Duration: [3–15s] • Aspect: [16:9 / 9:16 / 1:1] • Audio: [on/off]

Elements (optional):
@Element1 = [main character/subject]
@Element2 = [prop/product]

Shot 1 (0–3s):
[Framing + action + camera move]

Shot 2 (3–8s):
[Framing + action + camera move]

Shot 3 (8–15s):
[Final action/reveal + camera settle]
End frame (optional): [describe the final frame you want to land on]

Audio (if on):
Dialogue: <<<voice_1>>> “Short line.”
Ambience + 1–2 SFX cues.

Constraints:
No logos. No readable text. No subtitles/overlays. Keep it to one action per shot.

Tips & Limitations

Kling 3 Standard is most predictable when you plan it like a storyboard: simple shots, consistent elements, and short dialogue.

What works best

3–15s clips with 2–4 shots and clear timestamps/shot labels.
Use Elements for characters/props you want to keep stable.
For audio: one short line + ambience + 1 key SFX (keep it minimal).
Use an end frame when you need a clean landing or match cut.

Common problems → fast fixes

Drift across shots → repeat anchors + use @Element references; simplify each shot to one action.
Camera feels chaotic → one move per shot; avoid “dynamic” wording; specify “smooth track” or “tripod-stable”.
Dialogue/lip sync drifts → shorten lines; reduce fast head turns; keep the shot calmer.
Random text/logos → strengthen negative (“no text, no logos, no UI”) and keep signage out of frame.

Hard limits to keep in mind

Short-form only (up to 15s); stitch for longer narratives.
1080p tier in this routing.
Voice IDs are limited (max 2) and audio language behavior depends on routing.
End frame is optional and works best when the final composition is clearly described.
