Wan 2.2 — What’s New & How to Write Killer Prompts

Here’s a frame captured directly from a video generated on Textideo, with no post-processing:

This dramatic transformation can be achieved with a well-crafted prompt—easily try it yourself on Textideo.

Key Features of https://textideo.com/model/wan2-2

Wan 2.2 is a major upgrade from 2.1, featuring a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture, a much larger training dataset, and a new 5B “hybrid” model that can run at 720p @ 24 fps on a single RTX 4090.
I got an early hands-on experience on https://textideo.com/model/wan2-2. If you want to test it online without any local setup, you can check it out there.

MoE Architecture: Dynamically switches between high-noise and low-noise experts, producing clearer details and more consistent results.

Better Motion Handling: Smooth tracking, orbital shots, and multi-object scenes are more stable and fluid.

Lightweight Version: The 5B TI2V model runs on an 8GB GPU, perfect for local prototyping.

Prompt Writing Tips (Wan 2.2 Edition)

Prompt Length: 80–120 words is ideal; shorter prompts often trigger the default “cinematic” style, which can add randomness.

Shot Order: Start with opening shots → camera movements → key scene details.

Common Camera Verbs: pan, tilt, dolly, orbit, crane.

Motion Modifiers: slow-motion, time-lapse, etc.

Lighting & Color Tags: volumetric dusk, neon rim light, kodak portra.

Negative Prompts: Reduce artifacts and distortion, e.g.:

bright colors, overexposed, static, blurred details, ugly, deformed, low quality

Example Prompt

Dark Transformation

“The character transforms into a dark gothic figure, wearing a black-and-red kimono, with an eerie expression and a mysterious Japanese dark-gothic aura. Moody lighting, cinematic composition, subtle lens flare, soft shadows enhancing the sinister atmosphere.”

Try this directly on Textideo and see the results instantly.

Camera Motion Comparison (Wan 2.1 vs Wan 2.2)

Pan: Wan 2.2 offers more precise directional control.

Dolly: Easily handles both dolly in and dolly out.

Tilt: Works flawlessly.

Orbit: Smooth, natural transitions.

Conclusion

Wan 2.2 delivers significant improvements over 2.1 in image quality, motion performance, and prompt control, making it perfect for projects requiring cinematic effects or precise camera movements.
