Ray 3.14: Overview
This guide covers the essentials to make your first video. Give Ray3.14 a text description, a still image, or both, and it produces a short cinematic clip!
What Ray3.14 is good for
Quick, cinematic clips. Fast generation with native 1080p quality.
Text-to-video. Describe a scene and Ray3.14 creates it from scratch.
Image-to-video. Bring a still image to life with motion.
Seamless loops. Generate clips that repeat without a visible cut, ideal for backgrounds and social loops.
Please note: Ray3.14 generates video only, so add voiceover, music, or sound effects as a separate step.
Your first video in 3 steps
Write a prompt. Describe the subject, the action, and the setting in one or two sentences. Example: "A lighthouse keeper walks along a cliff path at dawn, coat billowing in the wind, waves crashing below."
Pick your settings. Choose an aspect ratio and duration (see below). The defaults are a good starting point.
Generate and refine. Review the result, adjust your prompt, and try again. Iteration is normal, and small prompt tweaks make a big difference.
Prompt tips that matter most
Use mid-action verbs. Say "running" rather than "begins to run," describing the action already happening.
Add secondary motion. Details like wind in the hair, fabric movement, or reflections make clips feel alive.
Skip hype words. Terms like "vibrant," "whimsical," or "hyper-realistic" tend to lower quality rather than raise it.
Working from an image? Describe only what should change or move, and don't re-describe what's already in the picture.
