Wan2.2 - Tips for Maximizing Video Quality? (Balancing motion amplitude, speed, fidelity with image quality and resolution)

I apologize for the crapload of text I'm about to drop but I've had a lot on my mind, a lot frustration, and not a lot of good places to ask general questions. AI image generation is supposed to be easy but it is extremely confusing and overwhelming for a newbie who is trying to get into it. I've been doing this for about a month now and I've come a long way with Illustrious and Wan2.2 video generation but I still find there is a tremendous lack of guidance. I wanted to share some of the tips that I've learned, and hopefully get pointed in the right direction.
