Sora AI Video Made Simple

A Step-by-Step Guide to Creating AI Videos with Sora

Miles Draper

You have an idea for a video and a tool that can make it real, but the blank prompt box is where momentum goes to die. Sora AI Video Made Simple is the straight path from that stuck moment to a finished, publishable short film. By the last page, you will write prompts that hold up, generate scenes that stay coherent, and edit your clips into something worth posting. Inside, you will find the anatomy of a Sora prompt broken down piece by piece, a method for keeping characters consistent across shots, practical fixes for artifacts and warping, and a chapter on export settings and platforms so your video actually lands where it needs to. There is also a 30-day playbook of templates and checklists to keep you moving after the book ends. If you are ready to stop guessing and start publishing, this book is the place to begin.
