50 video prompts you can copy

Everything in this book rests on one skill — the ability to describe a frame. This chapter is a ready collection: take a prompt from the category you need, drop in your own subject and get a clip. Each is written to one formula, so they're easy to remake for yourself.

Copy any prompt below and paste it right here. Video costs more than pictures: a clip is available after signing up and onboarding — which grant starter tokens.

Product and advertising

1. "A slow dolly in on the product, a clean studio background, soft light, a highlight glides across the surface, premium calm".
2. "A camera orbit around the product, a neutral background, even studio light, a seamless loop".
3. "A macro over the material's texture, light movement, soft side light, shallow depth of field".
4. "A hand brings the product into the frame on a flat background, a fast dolly, clean light — an ad hook".
5. "A before/after combo: an inconvenient everyday scene sharply switches to a tidy result with the product".
6. "A camera pass over the product's colour options in a row, soft light, a smooth glide".

Marketplace listing

1. "The product on a clean table, a slow dolly in, even light, a seamless loop; shape, colour and packaging as in the photo".
2. "The product next to a hand for scale, calm movement, a neutral background".
3. "A lamp/object in a stylish interior, warm light from the window, light static dynamics".
4. "Clothing in light movement on a neutral background, soft light, natural fabric".

Real estate and interior

1. "A bright living room, high ceilings, large windows, daylight; the camera slowly pans left to right".
2. "A smooth camera pass forward from the hallway deep into the room, calm, documentary".
3. "A kitchen in morning light, soft shadows, a light dolly along the work zone".
4. "A wide shot of the house outside, a soft pass forward, daylight, a cosy atmosphere".
5. "A view from the window onto the city/yard, a static shot, clouds drift slowly".

Social and hooks

1. "A sharp macro dolly over a stream of coffee into a cup, slow motion, droplets in the air, warm light".
2. "The camera falls from above toward the object, an unexpected angle, a dynamic dolly".
3. "A fast switch of three product angles to the beat, a clean background, energetic".
4. "A zoom into a detail and a sharp cut to a wide shot, contrasty light".
5. "Splashes/steam in slow motion on a dark background, soft backlight".

Nature and landscape

1. "An old lighthouse on a rocky shore, waves crash on the rocks, gulls circle, a drone shot, golden hour".
2. "Fog over a morning forest, a slow orbit, soft diffused light".
3. "A field in the wind, a static shot, grass sways, clouds drift, a seamless loop".
4. "A waterfall in slow motion, splashes, wet rocks, cool light".
5. "Snowy mountains at dawn, a slow pan, long shadows".

Portrait and person

1. "A close-up portrait, light breathing, a barely-there smile, a slow zoom in, soft light by the window".
2. "A person looks into the distance, light wind in the hair, warm sunset light, shallow depth of field".
3. "Hands at work in close-up, soft movement, warm working light".

Food

1. "Steaming coffee on a table, steam rises, warm morning light, a light dolly in".
2. "A drop of honey runs off a spoon, slow motion, soft backlight, macro".
3. "Fresh pastry on a board, light steam, warm light, a slow camera pass".

Atmospheric background and abstraction

1. "A slow dolly in, soft diffused light, light movement of particles — a background for text".
2. "Flowing coloured shapes, smooth dynamics, a seamless loop — an intro".
3. "A neon street at night in the rain, a slow forward dolly, reflections in the puddles, cinematic atmosphere".
4. "Bokeh of city lights, soft movement, defocus — a calm background".

What to do with a prompt if the result is off

• Picture jittery? Remove the extra action — one clear movement per clip.
• Camera behaving strangely? Describe it explicitly: "a slow dolly in", "a static shot", "an orbit".
• Letters drifting? Don't ask for text inside the generation — overlay captions on the finished clip.
• Face/hands fell apart? Shorten the length and simplify the frame; complex physics is still hard.

End of the book

You've come all the way: from how video comes out of text and a photo to concrete tasks — social, advertising, marketplaces, real estate. The sound and pictures for clips are made in the neighbouring guides: voicing and voice, music and image generation.

In the Twelver chat any prompt from this collection is turned into a clip right in the conversation — together with a voice-over, music and subtitles. Starter tokens for video are granted after signing up and onboarding.
