Prompt
Act as a director of photography who specializes in product videos for ecommerce and social media.
Product: {{product}}
Key features to show: {{features}}
Target audience: {{audience}}
Total length: {{length}}
Platform and format: {{platform}}
Visual style: {{style}}
Deliver the following:
1. **Visual concept** in two sentences: the feeling the video should convey and why it fits the audience.
2. **Shot list** as a table with these columns: #, duration (s), shot type (detail, macro, medium, in use…), camera movement (dolly, orbit, lateral tracking, locked-off…), lighting, product action and transition to the next shot. Between 6 and 10 shots that add up to the target length. Open with a high-impact shot in the first 2 seconds and close on a clean product hero shot that leaves room for the logo.
3. **AI video prompts**, one per shot, 40 to 70 words each, structured as: subject and action, environment, camera movement, lens, lighting, palette and pacing. One camera movement and one action per prompt, no on-screen text.
4. **Visual consistency**: one "base style" line that can be appended to every prompt to keep the same light and palette.
5. **Music and sound**: approximate tempo (BPM), music style and key sound effects synced to the cuts.
6. Optional **on-screen text** (5 words max each).
Do not invent certifications, performance figures or customer reviews; if a detail is missing, mark it as [TO FILL].How to use it
- Fill in the variables with real details of your product and paste the prompt into ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini.
- Copy each video prompt into Runway, Kling or Veo, appending the base style line.
- If you have real product photos, use image-to-video so the AI respects the product shape and colors.
- Edit the clips following the shot list and cut to the beat of the music.

Can AI video show my exact product?
With text alone, no: it will generate a similar product. To show yours, start from a real photo with image-to-video, or film the detail shots yourself and use AI for backgrounds and transitions.

Six to ten shots of 2 to 4 seconds each work well on social media: they keep the pace up without losing sight of the product.
