#### **MASTER PROMPT: VEO 3 – DATING APP AD CAMPAIGN**
**1. ROLE & GOAL:**
You are an expert creative director and AI video generator. Your task is to generate a 30-45 second, high-energy, emotionally resonant video advertisement for a new dating app. The goal is to drive app downloads by showcasing a modern, authentic, and desirable dating experience, moving beyond the superficiality of traditional swiping.
**2. CORE THEME:**
“From Digital Spark to Real-Life Connection.” The video must bridge the gap between in-app interaction and the genuine, fun, and meaningful moments that happen in the real world.
**3. TARGET AUDIENCE:**
`[Example: Mindful millennials and Gen Z, aged 24-35, living in urban areas. They are tech-savvy, value authenticity, experiences over material things, and are tired of superficial dating culture. They are looking for genuine connections, whether for serious relationships or meaningful friendships.]`
**4. KEY VARIABLES (User to complete):**
* **[App Name]:** The name of your dating app.
* **[App Slogan]:** The primary tagline (e.g., “Connect Deeper,” “Your Vibe Attracts Your Tribe”).
* **[App’s Unique Selling Proposition (USP)]:** The one key feature that sets your app apart. (e.g., “voice-note-first profiles,” “AI-powered icebreakers based on shared interests,” “video-only profiles,” “community-based group events”).
* **[Video Vibe & Tone]:** (e.g., Uplifting, warm, genuine, energetic, cinematic, authentic, slightly quirky, romantic).
* **[Brand Color Palette]:** Primary and secondary colors to be subtly integrated into the video. (e.g., “Warm terracotta, soft teal, and cream”).
* **[Music Style]:** (e.g., “Upbeat, optimistic indie-pop with a strong beat,” “Chill lo-fi hip hop with a soulful vocal sample,” “Acoustic folk with a driving rhythm”).
**5. OVERALL VISUAL & AESTHETIC STYLE:**
* **Cinematography:** Cinematic, high-quality footage. A mix of handheld shots for intimacy and smooth, stabilized shots for polish. Shot with a shallow depth of field to create a dreamy, focused look on the subjects.
* **Lighting:** Warm, natural lighting. Emphasize golden hour scenes (early morning or late afternoon sun). Interior scenes should be bright and airy or cozy and warmly lit (e.g., a cafe with string lights). Avoid harsh, sterile lighting.
* **Pacing:** Fast-paced and dynamic, with quick cuts synchronized to the music’s beat. The pacing should slow slightly during the most intimate “connection” moments.
* **Color Grading:** Warm and slightly saturated, with soft contrast. The colors should feel vibrant and alive, reflecting the `[Brand Color Palette]`.
* **Aspect Ratio:** 9:16 (Vertical for mobile/social media).
**6. SCENE-BY-SCENE STORYBOARD:**
**(Total Duration: 30-45 seconds)**
**Scene 1: The Relatable “Before” (0-4 seconds)**
* **Setting:** A stylish, sunlit apartment or a cool, minimalist coffee shop.
* **Characters & Action:** A diverse individual (woman, late 20s, creative professional) is on her phone. She swipes listlessly through a generic, boring dating app interface (subtly different from your app). She looks uninspired, sighing softly. The shot is candid, not overly dramatic or sad.
* **Camera:** Medium close-up, slightly handheld to feel personal.
* **On-Screen Text (Animated):** “Tired of the same old story?”
**Scene 2: The Discovery & USP Showcase (4-10 seconds)**
* **Action:** The character’s expression changes to one of curiosity. The phone screen transitions to the clean, vibrant interface of `[App Name]`. We see a hyper-specific, close-up shot of the `[App’s Unique Selling Proposition]` in action.
* *(If USP is voice notes):* We see an audio waveform animate as she listens to a charming, funny voice note. A genuine smile spreads across her face.
* *(If USP is video profiles):* We see a short, authentic video clip of a potential match laughing while hiking.
* **Camera:** Macro shots of the phone screen, focusing on the UI elements. Quick cuts between the user’s reaction and the app interface.
* **UI Element:** A sleek, animated representation of the `[App Name]` logo and the `[App’s Unique Selling Proposition]` feature name.
**Scene 3: The Digital Connection (10-15 seconds)**
* **Action:** A montage of quick, energetic shots showing diverse people genuinely enjoying using the app. A man laughing at a witty bio. A non-binary person animatedly recording a video prompt. A woman typing a thoughtful reply. The key is *active engagement*, not passive swiping.
* **Camera:** Dynamic, fast-paced cuts. Split screens could be used here to show two people interacting simultaneously.
* **On-Screen Text (Animated):** “This is different.”
**Scene 4: The Seamless Transition (15-18 seconds)**
* **Action:** A creative visual transition. A character on the phone screen swipes up on a profile. As they swipe, the scene “pulls back” or “wipes” to reveal that same character is now meeting the person from the profile in real life. For example, a man looks at a woman’s profile picture where she’s holding a coffee; he swipes up, and the camera pulls out to show him standing in front of her at a real coffee shop, both smiling.
* **Camera:** A clever match cut or a whip pan transition.
**Scene 5: The “After” – Real-Life Moments (18-30 seconds)**
* **Action:** A vibrant, high-energy montage of diverse couples and connections enjoying authentic, non-cliché dates. These scenes should feel like captured memories from an indie film.
* A couple laughing while attempting to cook a new recipe in a messy kitchen.
* Two people exploring a quirky vintage market, pointing at interesting objects.
* A pair sharing headphones, sitting on a park bench during sunset.
* A group of people from the app’s “events feature” laughing together at a trivia night.
* **Camera:** A mix of beautiful slow-motion shots and dynamic, candid handheld shots. Lens flares from the golden hour sun.
* **Key Feeling:** Joy, authenticity, comfort, and genuine chemistry.
**Scene 6: The Final Call to Action (30-35 seconds)**
* **Action:** A final, powerful hero shot. One of the couples from the montage shares a quiet, happy moment—a shared glance, a light touch on the arm, a genuine laugh. They look directly at each other, not the camera.
* **Camera:** Close-up or medium shot, beautifully lit, possibly in slow-motion.
* **On-Screen Elements:** The `[App Name]` logo appears cleanly in the center. Below it, the `[App Slogan]` animates in. Finally, “Download Now” with the App Store and Google Play logos.
**7. AUDIO DIRECTION:**
* **Music:** Begin with the specified `[Music Style]`. The music should start off slightly mellow in Scene 1 and build in energy and optimism through scenes 2-5, reaching a crescendo during the montage. It should soften slightly for the final CTA shot.
* **Sound Effects (SFX):** Subtle, satisfying UI sounds (clicks, chimes, whooshes) during the app interaction scenes. In the real-life scenes, include diegetic sounds like laughter, ambient city noise, clinking glasses to make it feel immersive.
**8. NEGATIVE PROMPTS & CONSTRAINTS:**
* **AVOID:** Cheesy stock video aesthetics, overly posed models, cliché date scenarios (e.g., formal dinner with roses), people looking sad or desperate.
* **DO NOT:** Show generic swiping left/right.
* **ENSURE:** The cast is diverse and represents a wide range of ethnicities, body types, and styles, reflecting the `[Target Audience]`. The connections shown should feel natural and platonic as well as romantic.
