TACKL framework introduction
TACKL stands for Tone, Audience, Character, Key moments, and Locations. It is a five-stage framework for writing optimal prompts in Agent Opus.
[00:59]
Stage T: Tone
Prompt the desired tone by typing 'Tone:' followed by adjectives like exciting, educational, passionate. Other options include entertaining, energetic, confident, funny.
[01:39]
Organizing the prompt
Add recorded narration or paste a script at the top, then structure the TACKL sections with capital letters and colons for Agent Opus to understand.
[02:18]
Stage A: Audience
Specify the target audience (e.g., teenagers, entrepreneurs, lawyers) to help Agent Opus make creative decisions.
[02:34]
Stage C: Character
Describe the character's appearance, actions, and emotions. Upload an image or provide detailed text descriptions. Example: red mohawk haircut, Scottish kilt, riding a skateboard, always excited.
[03:56]
Stage K: Key moments
Specify what happens at key moments: intro (e.g., riding down a hill), outro (e.g., thumbs up), and specific points (e.g., playing a game console when a game is mentioned).
[04:51]
Stage L: Locations
List locations for the video, such as Eiffel Tower, Grand Canyon, Great Wall of China, etc.
[05:06]
Result and next steps
The generated video matched the prompts: red mohawk, kilt, skateboarding, game playing, and thumbs up. A user intent screen after generation allows further refinement.
By using the TACKL framework, users can dramatically improve the quality and specificity of AI-generated videos. The creator promises a follow-up video on the user intent screen for even more control.

[00:02] generated with Agent Opus already, just like the ones you're seeing on screen now, created automatically with just a single button click. I've used this tool a lot already, and that's led me to realize that if you just do a little bit
[00:16] of prompting before you press that generate button, you get way more control over how great your created videos are. Like this for example, I can just type in this one line about the locations that should show in my video
[00:29] before I press this generate button here. Agent Opus follows this video back that I asked for. Here I am at the Eiffel Tower, and then the Grand Canyon, Great Wall of China, the Colosseum, Taj Mahal, Leaning Tower of
[00:43] Pisa, and other famous landmarks. And typing in your video's locations L is just one stage of the five stages of the Tackle framework, T A C K L, a framework I realized for writing the best possible prompts when using Agent Opus, and we're
[00:59] going to run through those five stages now. So, the first stage of Tackle, T, is prompting the tone that should be present in your video. I'm going to add the instructions to my video's tone in the prompt by typing in tone with
[01:13] capitals followed by a colon to tell Agent Opus that I'm prompting the tone, and then I'm going to ask for an exciting, educational, and passionate video. And you can prompt for any tone you can think of here. Do you want your
[01:25] videos to be entertaining, energetic, confident, funny? Just feel free to experiment and type in whatever comes to mind. And before I move on to A, the next step in Tackle, I'm just going to show you how to organize this so that
[01:39] everything is formatted in a way Agent Opus can understand. So, you can either add your recorded narration voiceover for your video here. So, for example, I've just added my voiceover recording here, and I've got the tone section
[01:52] starting underneath that recording. Or, you can type in the script for your paste that in at the top here, and you'll see that to add my scripts, I just typed in scripts in that capital letters again with a colon after, and
[02:05] then my script is in quotation marks here, and then tackle begins underneath here with tone written in capitals with a colon after it. And now we're going to move on to the next step in tackle A, which is the stage where we write about
[02:18] see I've instructed that my video should be for teenagers and young adults, but any audience. It could be entrepreneurs, it could be lawyers with an interest in content creation. It could be preschool kids. Stating your audience here just
[02:34] further helps the Agent Opus AI when it's making creative decisions. Okay, after that, the next stage in tackle is character. Here's where we state things like what your character looks like, what they're doing, what emotions
[02:47] they're showing. An easy way to create your character is to simply upload an image of your character here. So, I've just added an image of myself here. So, been added here under the character section. I'm just going to
[03:00] paste in the rest of this prompt now to tell Agent Opus that that image is my describe things that I want to be different from that image. So, I'm going to ask for a red mohawk haircut. I want to be wearing a Scottish kilt all the
[03:13] time. So, that's the instructions around appearance covered. In terms of actions, I'm asking that I'm always riding a skateboard throughout this video as the moving on to emotions, I'm writing that the character should be always excited
[03:26] and passionate. So, make sure to be as detailed as possible about your they're taking, and emotions they're showing. And if you don't have an image to upload to guide the AI, you're going to have to be even more detailed in
[03:39] describing everything you want your character to look and feel like. Okay, moving on to K, the fourth step in the five-step tackle framework. And just a Agent Opus yet, I'll put a link in the video description and pinned comment so
[03:56] you can go ahead and try these prompting frameworks out yourself. The K stage in Tackle, I'll pop this down here, stands for key moments. And this took me a moment to realize you could do this actually. You can tell the Agent Opus AI
[04:08] what you want to be happening at key moments throughout the video. So, you happening in the introduction. So, I'll ask for my main character to be riding down a steep hill on a skateboard. You can prompt for what's happening at the
[04:21] outro. So, I'm saying I want my main character to be giving a thumbs up in a really powerful and took me a while to realize you could do this, too. You can throughout the video. So, there's a moment where I'm talking about like this
[04:37] Tony Hawk's Pro Skater game, I'll just type game in there. And I can simply say when that game is being mentioned, I want the main character to be sat on a sofa playing on a games console. And after that, I'll just add my location
[04:51] information for the video, so stage L of Tackle. And I've now covered all five stages of that prompting framework. So, I'm ready to hit the generate button finished video I got with me with that red mohawk and Scottish kilt skating
[05:06] down that hill at the start. Uh we've got me playing the computer game when I talk about the game. And then me at the end with my thumbs up at that concrete skate park. Not many people realize you can prompt Agent Opus in this way. So, I
[05:19] wanted to just jump on and show you what I have learned from using it. So, I'll pop the Tackle framework example prompt I use in the description to this video so you can use that for guidance. After you've written your prompt, there's a
[05:31] new kind of like user intent screen that will appear on the next screen after you press generate. On that next screen, you can guide Agent Opus even further to get the best possible video. So, we're going to be making a video on that next
[05:44] screen, the user intent screen, really soon. I'll put a link to it here when that's out. Have fun with Azure Opus and I'll see you on the next one. Bye.
