Prompt, model, and settings in Higgsfield AI VFX Creation
Enhance should be on for a bit more enhanced prompt. It is always good to have that for clarity.
For the model, choose whichever you want. If you have premium, you can select one of the premium ones, but if you do not, you will have to go with the Higgsfield light. If you need to manage your plan later, you can cancel your Higgsfield AI subscription with this guide.
You also have some advanced settings. You can go with a random seed, select duration to be 3 or 5 seconds, and choose how many steps you would like. More steps will take more time and cost more.
