Magic / Spell Prompts for Reels & Shorts
Magic / Spell AI Video Prompts
Magic spell AI video prompts produce wizardry-in-motion sequences: glowing runes, swirling energy, spell impact moments. Best prompts specify the magic style (elemental, dark, light, alchemical) and the caster's stance.
Short-form video lives at 9:16 vertical with strong hook framing in the first second. These Magic / Spell video prompts are tuned for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts. Hundreds more in our free Prompt Library.
What makes a Magic / Spell prompt work for Shorts
Short-form Magic / Spell prompts need 9:16 vertical framing, a hook in the first 1.5 seconds, and a single focal subject (no busy backgrounds at the 60% center where the algorithm crops thumbnails). Lean into: swirling glowing particles, runic circles forming mid-air, dramatic upward gust of wind, intense character focus, single-color magical light source, slow-motion peak impact. Most video models accept aspect_ratio: 9:16 directly in the input.

Remix this by changing one element at a time: time of day, camera move, lighting condition, subject action. Single-axis variation keeps the output coherent across runs.
Frequently Asked Questions
What aspect ratio for Magic / Spell TikTok prompts?
9:16 vertical (1080x1920 native). Every modern video model (Veo 3, Kling, Wan, Grok, Hailuo, Seedance) accepts 9:16 as an explicit aspect_ratio parameter. Avoid generating 16:9 and crop-down - the composition gets cropped wrong.
How long should a Magic / Spell Reels clip be?
6-8 seconds is the sweet spot for AI-generated Magic / Spell clips. Long enough to read the visual, short enough to loop natively in Reels/TikTok feeds. Stitch 2-3 generations together if you need 15-30s narrative.
Which model is fastest for Magic / Spell Reels iteration?
Grok Imagine at 480p/6s generates a Magic / Spell Reels clip in ~30-90s end-to-end. Perfect for testing 5-10 hook variations before committing to a finalist. Upgrade winners to 720p or to Veo 3 for the final hero.
