## Sample prompts

- **TikTok / Instagram Reels** — prompt: "Close-up food video of a sharp knife slicing cleanly through a ripe strawberry, juice beading on the blade. The whole fruit sits in frame with space around it, filling roughly half the height, and the blade is fully visible as it enters — never cropped so tight that the fruit or the knife runs out of frame. The cut completes within the shot: the blade passes all the way through and the two halves separate cleanly. Sharp focus across the fruit, shallow background blur, slow deliberate motion, warm backlight light raking across the surface so texture and moisture read. Rich saturated colour, glistening highlights, juice visible on the blade. Locked-off camera, single continuous take, no cuts, no text overlays."

- **TikTok / Instagram Reels** — prompt: "Vertical handheld vlog-style clip. a founder in her 30s in a small studio workspace is mid-way through packing the morning's orders, glances up at the camera and says casually: "Forty-one orders before nine. This is the part nobody posts.". Natural available light, slightly imperfect framing, candid behind-the-scenes feel rather than a produced shot. No text overlays."

  Output: https://d2ngr02qv3hi28.cloudfront.net/preset-samples/v2/day-in-the-life-d0ce3b64d2.mp4
- **Instagram Reels / TikTok** — prompt: "Cinematic vertical teaser. a brushed steel watch revealed by a slow light sweep across the frame against a dark moody set. Slow deliberate camera push-in, shallow depth of field, volumetric light and floating dust, premium colour grade with deep blacks. Single continuous shot, no cuts, no text, no people."

  Output: https://d2ngr02qv3hi28.cloudfront.net/preset-samples/v2/launch-teaser-dcad03a45a.mp4
- **YouTube / X video** — prompt: "Premium cinematic 3D animated scene, modern feature-film quality. CHARACTER: Milo, a small adventurous red panda with soft orange-red fur, cream facial markings, oversized warm brown eyes, a fluffy striped tail, a teal explorer jacket, a small brown utility backpack and cream sneakers — appealing stylised proportions, large expressive head and eyes, tactile detailed fur or surface, realistic fabric with gentle cloth movement. SCENE: A magical lush forest at sunrise — a moss-covered path, enormous leaves, hanging vines, golden light through the canopy, glowing particles and low mist. ACTION, in four beats: 0-2s — he walks into frame from the left, curious and alert, backpack and tail moving with each step; 2-4s — he notices a tiny glowing butterfly, stops, tilts his head and reaches a paw toward it; 4-6s — the butterfly circles his face trailing glowing particles; he follows it with his eyes and smiles with genuine wonder; 6-8s — he looks deeper into the forest, adjusts his backpack strap and takes a confident step onward. CAMERA: a low-angle tracking shot from the side, easing into a push-in at the discovery, a subtle orbit through the middle beat, then a smooth pull-back. MOTION: natural character animation with believable weight and foot placement, subtle secondary motion, natural blinking, expressive facial animation, physically plausible contact with the environment; the environment moves too — a light breeze in the foliage, drifting mist, particles floating naturally. LOOK: cinematic global illumination, volumetric light, atmospheric depth, sophisticated colour grade, beautiful depth of field. IDENTITY: hold the character's exact proportions, clothing, colours and facial features for the entire clip — no morphing, no clothing changes, no extra or missing limbs, no duplicate of the character, no abrupt change of environment. Single continuous take. No text, no subtitles, no logos, no watermark."

- **TikTok / Instagram Reels** — prompt: "Vertical handheld phone video, creator-style. a woman in her late 20s in a sunlit kitchen looks straight down the lens and opens with the hook: "Okay, I have been waiting months for this to launch.". They hold up a refillable travel bottle at chest height, then say: "One bottle, and I have stopped buying plastic entirely.". Natural light, slight handheld movement, direct eye contact throughout, authentic unscripted delivery — not a polished commercial. No text overlays, no music cues."

  Output: https://d2ngr02qv3hi28.cloudfront.net/preset-samples/v2/ugc-launch-ad-99041c4367.mp4
- **TikTok / Instagram Reels** — prompt: "Vertical selfie-style video. a woman in her late 20s holds a skincare serum bottle up to the camera in a bright bathroom and says warmly and naturally: "Honestly, three weeks in and my skin has never looked better.". Handheld phone camera, natural light, unpolished authentic UGC feel, direct eye contact with the lens."
