Full prompt and why it works
Prompt
A short 2D motion graphics animation showing how {{product}} works, for {{use_case}}. The clip explains one simple process in a few clear beats, so each movement has to be easy to follow at a glance, with labels and narration added later in editing. Style: flat vector shapes with soft rounded corners, a limited palette of {{palette}} on a plain {{background}} background, gentle flat lighting with soft drop shadows, and smooth easing on every movement, in the style of a clean product explainer. Camera: a static, front-on wide shot of the whole scene, with no cuts. The camera moves only where a beat below says so, such as a slow push-in on one element. The beats, in order, each saying what moves: {{beats}} Each beat flows into the next without a cut, with the same shapes, colors and positions carried through, and the motion is slow enough for a viewer to follow each step. Timing and format: {{duration_seconds}} seconds, {{aspect_ratio}}. Sound: soft, upbeat instrumental music low in the mix, with light whoosh and click sound effects timed to each movement. No voice-over and no speech, because narration is added in editing. Leave out all text, letters, numbers, labels, interface text, logos and watermarks, because generated lettering comes out garbled; add any words in your editor. If a beat is unclear, keep its motion simple and slow rather than adding new elements. If all the beats do not fit in {{duration_seconds}} seconds at a calm pace, show only as many as fit and leave the rest for a second clip in this same style.
Variables
- {{product}}
- The product or service, for example "our invoice scanning app".
- {{use_case}}
- Where the clip will be used, for example "the how-it-works section of our home page" or "a sales presentation".
- {{palette}}
- Two to four colors, for example "navy, sky blue and a warm orange accent".
- {{background}}
- The background color, for example "off-white".
- {{beats}}
- Three to five lines, each saying what moves, for example "Beat 1: a paper receipt slides in from the left and drops onto a phone screen. Beat 2: the receipt turns into a neat card that slides into a folder." Keep the same objects throughout.
- {{duration_seconds}}
- A clip length your video model supports; check its settings.
- {{aspect_ratio}}
- 16:9 for a web page or slide, 1:1 or 9:16 for social posts.
Why it works
- Length. Three to five beats, each saying what moves, and a static camera keep the clip to one simple process a viewer can follow. Beats that do not fit go into a second clip in the same style, since video models handle one focused moment best.
- What to avoid. No text, numbers or labels in the frame, since video models render lettering poorly; add every word in your editor.
- Background facts. Music and sound effects timed to each movement get their own line, with no voice-over, so narration can be added later.
