Prompt

Global Directives: Render in 8K, cinematic photorealism, 24fps film aesthetic, high dynamic range, physically accurate lighting, subsurface scattering on skin, detailed fabric textures. Maintain consistent subject identity throughout all scenes.

Scene 1: [duration] duration. [subject] wearing [clothing] stands in [location]. The lighting is [lighting]. Camera: [camera_movement], using a [lens]. The action is [action]. Atmosphere: thick volumetric fog, floating embers, cinematic depth of field.

Scene 2: [duration] duration. Close-up on the face of [subject]. Expressive micro-movements, realistic eye tracking, skin pores and subtle sweat visible. Lighting: [lighting]. Camera: slow rack focus from eyes to [subject]’s hands.

Scene 3: [duration] duration. Wide angle shot of [location]. [subject] moves through the environment. Lighting: [lighting], casting long dramatic shadows. Camera: smooth tracking shot following the movement.

Audio/Music Direction: [music_style], with diegetic foley sounds (footsteps, ambient wind, mechanical hums). Color grading: [color_palette], film grain, subtle lens flare.

Rendering Engine: Unreal Engine 5.4, Octane Render, path-traced, ultra-detailed textures, motion blur, anamorphic bokeh.

Prompt Variations

Variation 1 (Luxury Commercial): Focus on [subject] as a high-fashion model. Use studio lighting, 85mm lens, minimalist white background, slow-motion movement, soft-focus bokeh, and sophisticated orchestral music. Emphasize fabric texture and jewelry reflections.

Variation 2 (Documentary Style): Focus on [subject] in a real-world [location]. Use natural golden-hour lighting, handheld camera movement, 50mm lens, authentic grain, ambient city sounds, and an inspirational acoustic score. Emphasize raw, candid emotion.

Variation 3 (Sci-Fi Action): Focus on [subject] in a high-stakes [action]. Use intense neon lighting, FPV drone camera movement, 24mm wide lens, particle effects, heavy electronic bass music, and high-contrast color grading.

Negative Prompt

low quality, low resolution, compression artifacts, blur, noise, poor anatomy, duplicate subjects, cropped, bad proportions, watermarks, logos, text overlays, incorrect lighting, oversaturated colors, underexposed, overexposed, motion artifacts, render errors, AI hallucinations, extra limbs, extra fingers, incorrect perspective, identity drift, camera jitter, frame flicker, temporal inconsistency, lip sync mismatch, motion warping, scene discontinuity, character inconsistency, object morphing, background instability, audio clipping, music distortion, flat lighting, plastic skin, cartoonish, uncanny valley.

Expert Usage Tips

1. Use a “Global Reference” image in your AI tool to ensure the [subject] remains identical across all scenes.

2. Keep camera movements subtle; extreme movements often lead to AI motion artifacts and warping.

3. Utilize the “negative prompt” field to explicitly exclude “morphing” and “flickering” for cleaner video output.

4. For complex actions, generate in shorter 3-second segments and use a video-to-video tool to blend them seamlessly.

5. If the character changes appearance, re-run the prompt with a fixed seed and the original reference image.
