How to Use Sora AI: A Step-by-Step Guide for Creators

So you heard about Sora AI and you’re like, "Omo, this thing can make videos from text?" Yup. It’s real, and it’s about to make your content creation life way easier. And yes, we’ll also show you the easiest way to pay for it from Africa without your card being declined (hint: Myaza USD virtual card).
What is Sora AI?
Sora is basically your personal AI filmmaker. You type what you want, and it turns it into a video. No camera crew. No editing nightmare. Just you, your creativity, and some AI magic.
What makes it different:
Videos up to 60 seconds – no more 5-second clips
Multiple characters and objects – chaos? not here
Realistic motion – things move like they actually should
Different ratios – TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, you name it
Style control – cinematic, anime, documentary, whatever you’re feeling
Getting Started With Your First Video
1. Set up your Sora account
Go to the official Sora platform
Sign up with email or Google
Pick a plan (they have free tiers if you’re just trying)
Verify if needed
2. Know the interface
You’ll see:
Prompt box – where the magic words go
Duration – 5s, 10s, 20s… your call
Aspect ratio – 9:16 for Reels/TikTok, 16:9 for YouTube
Style settings – cinematic, dreamy, edgy…
Preview – see your work before you flex
3. Writing your first prompt
Think of prompts like giving directions to a very smart friend: [Subject] + [Action] + [Setting] + [Style/Mood]
Example: "A golden retriever puppy playing with a red ball in a sunny park, cinematic style with warm afternoon lighting"
Subject: golden retriever puppy (specific, not just 'dog')
Action: playing with a red ball
Setting: sunny park
Style: cinematic, warm lighting
Pro Tips for Better Videos
Camera angles: "Drone shot flying over…" or "Close-up of…"
Lighting: golden hour, neon lights, dramatic side lighting
Motion: slow-mo, smooth tracking, quick cuts
Style references: cyberpunk, romantic, anime
Avoid mistakes:
Too vague: "Nice nature video" → meh
Too many ideas: "A beach, city, fireworks, and a spaceship" → confusing
Impossible physics: AI is smart but not magic
