The poster tried official prompting guidelines, used LLMs like Gemini, Grok, and Claude to optimize prompts, and followed YouTube workflow tutorials, but success rates remain inconsistent. The community is investigating whether factors like image-to-video aspect ratio or Turbo LoRAs are impacting the generation results.
