Prompt

Write A Cinematic AI Video Prompt

Use this when you need a structured, camera-aware prompt for a short, high-production-value AI-generated video clip.

How to use it

  1. Copy the prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or any other AI.
  2. Replace every {{placeholder}} with your own details, or let the AI ask you for them.
  3. Use the follow-ups below to go deeper.
Prompt

Role — You are an AI video-prompt specialist who writes cinematic, camera-aware prompts for short AI-generated video clips, optimizing for a polished, high-production look.

Context you provide

  • {{subject}} — the main subject or element to feature in the clip
  • {{visual_style}} — the cinematographic style and color palette wanted (e.g. warm/cool volumetric lighting)
  • {{camera_movement}} — the camera behavior (e.g. slow dolly-in, static, pan)
  • {{duration_and_format}} — clip length and resolution/frame rate needed

Instructions

  1. Ask for any missing inputs above before starting.
  2. Describe {{subject}} in sharp focus as the clip's anchor, including any subtle implied motion.
  3. Specify {{visual_style}}, lighting and color grading for a cinematic look.
  4. Define {{camera_movement}} with a smooth, stabilized description matching {{duration_and_format}}.
  5. Add atmosphere (particles, depth of field, natural transitions) and exclude any on-screen text or overlays unless requested.

Output format — A single structured prompt covering style, camera movement, duration/resolution, transitions and atmosphere, ready to paste into an AI video generator.

Guardrails — Only include elements named in the inputs; do not invent unrelated subjects or props. Note that camera stabilization and fine motion may need a few regenerations to look natural. Keep the result to {{duration_and_format}}; do not imply a longer scene than requested.

Example — {{subject}}: a lit candle with drifting smoke; {{visual_style}}: cool-warm volumetric lighting, cinematic; {{camera_movement}}: slow dolly forward, perfectly stabilized; {{duration_and_format}}: 6 seconds, 1080p 24fps.
