### **Optimized Dynamic Veo 3 Prompt Template for a Finance App Ad**
This template is structured to give Google Veo maximum context and control, leveraging its capabilities for high-fidelity video generation, character consistency, and understanding of cinematic language. The use of dynamic variables (denoted by `[variable_name]`) allows for easy adaptation for different campaigns, features, or target audiences.

#### **Part 1: Core Directives & Global Style Guide**
**(This section sets the overall tone, quality, and consistent visual elements for the entire video.)**
* **Prompt Type:** Dynamic Video Generation for a 30-second commercial.
* **Target AI Model:** Google Veo 3.
* **Overall Mood & Vibe:** Optimistic, empowering, modern, clean, and trustworthy. The journey should go from a state of mild financial anxiety to a feeling of clarity, control, and confidence.
* **Visual Style:** Cinematic, high-end commercial aesthetic. High resolution (4K), professional lighting, and a shallow depth of field to focus on the character and the app. Avoid a generic “stock video” feel. The world should feel authentic and relatable.
* **Pacing:** Starts slightly frantic or contemplative, transitions to a smooth, confident rhythm, and ends on an inspiring, upbeat note.
* **Color Palette:** A primary color of `[App_Primary_Color]` (e.g., deep teal, navy blue) and a secondary accent color of `[App_Accent_Color]` (e.g., warm gold, vibrant coral). The overall color grade should be bright and airy, especially in the “after” scenes.
* **Audio Direction (for reference):** The visual narrative should align with an upbeat, modern, and light instrumental track with subtle, satisfying UI sound effects (clicks, chimes).
* **Aspect Ratio:** 16:9 for YouTube/web, with a secondary consideration for a 9:16 vertical version (center-framed action).

#### **Part 3: Scene-by-Scene Storyboard**
**(This is the detailed, sequential instruction for Veo.)**
**Scene 1: The “Before” – The Problem (Duration: 6 seconds)**
* **Setting:** A stylish but slightly cluttered home office or living room at dusk. Papers and a laptop are on the table.
* **Character:** `[Target_Audience_Persona]` is sitting at the table, looking at their laptop with a concerned or slightly stressed expression. They are dealing with `[Financial_Pain_Point]`.
* **Cinematography:** Medium shot. The lighting is a bit dim and chaotic, perhaps with the blueish glow of the laptop screen illuminating their face. Use a subtle, slow push-in (dolly zoom) to heighten the feeling of being overwhelmed.
* **VFX/On-screen text:** None.
**Scene 2: The “Discovery” – The Solution (Duration: 4 seconds)**
* **Action:** The character sighs, picks up their smartphone. Their thumb hovers for a moment before tapping on the `[App_Name]` icon on their home screen. As they open the app, a soft, warm light seems to emanate from the phone, subtly brightening their face and their expression shifting from stress to curiosity.
* **Cinematography:** Transition from the medium shot to a close-up on the character’s face, then rack focus to the smartphone in their hands. The app icon should be clearly visible.
**Scene 3: The “After” – Feature 1 in Action (Duration: 8 seconds)**
* **Action:** The character is now confidently interacting with the app. We see their thumb swipe, revealing the `[Key_Feature_1_Name]` interface.
* **Cinematography:** Extreme close-up on the smartphone screen, which is bright and clear. The background is now abstract and blurred.
* **VFX/UI Overlay:** The app’s UI, showing `[Key_Feature_1_UI_Visual]`, becomes a floating, holographic element that expands from the phone. Animated icons and numbers move dynamically to show the feature working. The colors `[App_Primary_Color]` and `[App_Accent_Color]` are prominent.
* **On-screen Text (Animated):** A simple, clean text overlay appears next to the UI element: **`[Key_Feature_1_Name]`**.
**Scene 4: The Real-World Benefit – Feature 2 (Duration: 7 seconds)**
* **Setting:** A completely new, bright, and happy environment. For example, the character is now enjoying a coffee at a sunny cafe, hiking on a beautiful trail, or placing a key into the door of a new apartment. This setting should reflect the successful outcome of using the app.
* **Action:** The character receives a positive notification from `[App_Name]` on their phone or smartwatch related to `[Key_Feature_2_Name]`. For example, a notification saying “Savings Goal Achieved!” or “Portfolio is up 5% this month!” They smile with genuine relief and satisfaction.
* **Cinematography:** Medium shot, warm, natural sunlight. The camera can have a slight, smooth orbiting motion around the character to create a feeling of freedom and happiness.
* **VFX/UI Overlay:** A clean, minimalistic notification showing the `[Key_Feature_2_UI_Visual]` briefly appears on their device screen or as a subtle graphic overlay in the air.
**Scene 5: Call to Action (Duration: 5 seconds)**
* **Setting:** Minimalist, clean background in `[App_Primary_Color]`.
* **Action:** A photorealistic smartphone animates into the center of the screen, displaying the `[App_Name]` logo and home screen.
* **Cinematography:** A clean, centered product shot.
* **VFX/On-screen Text:** The `[App_Tagline]` elegantly types itself out below the phone. The official “Download on the App Store” and “Get it on Google Play” badges appear at the bottom. The `[App_Name]` logo appears prominently at the end.
