Stories from OpenAI: Sora 2

Sora's key strength is narrative: long, coherent scenes up to 20 seconds, a cohesive story arc, audio, and excellent object consistency over time.

📖 Sora excels at "stories": in 16–20 seconds, describe the setup, development, and finale — it will hold the narrative together.

Writing a prompt

Write for Sora like a screenplay — it loves the full story.

✕ Weak
«Robot on the street»
✓ Strong
«A small robot finds a wilted flower on the sidewalk, gently picks it up, charges it with light from its palms — the flower blooms; passersby stop and smile; warm sunset light, touching mood»
✅ The structure "setup → action → resolution" is the key technique for Sora.
✅ Character emotions and reactions ("smiling", "turning around in surprise") are handled excellently by Sora.
