Prompt Variations
Section titled “Prompt Variations”Commercial lifestyle shot: [PERSON — e.g., a woman in her 30s in a linen shirt] laughs while [ACTIVITY — e.g., pouring coffee for friends] in a sun-drenched [SETTING — e.g., Scandinavian kitchen], slow dolly-in as morning light blooms through sheer curtains. Warm editorial grade, soft skin tones, gentle lens flare. Ambient noise: warm room tone, soft laughter, an acoustic guitar bed.High-energy commercial shot: [ATHLETE] explodes off the line in [SETTING — e.g., an empty stadium tunnel at dawn], the camera tracking low and fast alongside, breath fogging, fabric of their [PRODUCT/APPAREL] rippling in crisp detail.

Section titled “Tips & Best Practices”- Grade = brand: name the color language (“warm editorial,” “desaturated with one accent color”) — it’s the fastest way to feel on-brand.
- Use product placeholders: AI-rendered logos and labels are unreliable; frame around a
[PRODUCT]stand-in and comp the real pack shot in post. - One emotion per clip: joy, grit, calm, appetite. Montage multiple clips for the full spot arc.
- Foley sells premium: intimate SFX (drizzle, fabric, a click) reads more expensive than wall-to-wall music.
