## FLUX 3 prompting tips

- BFL says the model "Handles simple or complex prompts"; short prompts can be enough thanks to its world knowledge ([BFL](https://bfl.ai/models/flux-3-video), [BFL](https://bfl.ai/blog/flux-3-video)).
- Use keyframes in order to control how the shot progresses ([BFL](https://bfl.ai/models/flux-3-video)).
- For longer stories, chain clips: use the last frame of one clip as the start frame of the next ([BFL](https://bfl.ai/models/flux-3-video)).
