3. Genre Templates
Action / Sci-Fi
Cyberpunk Chase
"A neon-lit cyberpunk chase scene through rainy streets. A man in a glowing trench coat runs past towering holograms while drones buzz overhead. The camera follows him in a shaky handheld style, lens flares from neon signs bleeding across the frame, with splashes of water hitting the virtual lens as he sprints."
Space Battle
"Spaceships battling above a crimson planet. The shot begins inside a cockpit with HUD screens glowing, then cuts to an exterior wide shot of lasers firing, debris scattering in zero gravity. The camera tracks smoothly across a fleet as an explosion lights up the void."
Fantasy / Adventure
Dragon Soaring
"A sweeping aerial shot of a dragon soaring above snowy mountains. The camera tilts downward to reveal a castle carved into the cliffs, torches glowing in its towers. Clouds swirl around the peaks, and the dragon releases a stream of fire that illuminates the valley below."
Enchanted Forest
"A weary adventurer enters a misty enchanted forest. The scene begins as a wide shot of massive glowing trees, bioluminescent flowers lighting the path. As he steps forward, the camera lowers to ground level, following his boots as fog curls around them."
Horror / Thriller
Haunted Hospital
"A slow dolly shot down an abandoned hospital corridor. Fluorescent lights flicker overhead, broken tiles scatter across the floor, and a shadowy figure appears briefly at the far end before vanishing. The soundless tension builds as the camera creeps closer, capturing the peeling paint and eerie silence."
Candlelit Terror
"A candlelit room with a terrified man sitting alone at a table. The camera circles him slowly as whispers echo faintly in the darkness. Behind him, a shadowy figure emerges out of focus, and the shot ends with a sudden crash as the candle flickers violently."
Romance / Drama
Rain Embrace
"Two lovers stand in the rain on a quiet city street. The neon glow of a diner sign reflects off puddles as the camera closes in on their embrace. Raindrops hit the lens, giving a raw handheld effect, while their faces light up with relief and love."
Cherry Blossom
"A sunlit park in springtime. A couple sits under a cherry blossom tree as pink petals fall gently around them. The camera uses a soft-focus lens effect, creating a dreamy haze, then slowly zooms into their hands clasping together."

5. Pro Tips & Common Fixes
Refining Your Prompts
- Start small: Test with short clips before scaling up
- Use cinematic terms: "tracking shot", "dolly zoom", "lens flare"
- Lock frames: Use first/last frame lock for smooth scenes
- Experiment with tone: "melancholic", "triumphant", "eerie", "hopeful"
Common Pitfalls & Quick Fixes
- Vague camera note → Name the move: "slow push-in", "drone follow"
- Too many actions → Pick one hero action; hint secondary motion only
- No lighting plan → Choose source: "lamp", "window", "neon glow"
- No anchors → Add props: "mic arm", "marble surface", "vinyl wall"

Emotional Portrait Example
Victorian Melancholy
"A strikingly beautiful young woman in her mid-20s, with tousled auburn hair framing her porcelain face, sits curled on a worn velvet chaise in a dimly lit Victorian parlor, rain pattering against fogged antique windows. Her emerald eyes glisten with unshed tears, lips parted in quiet vulnerability as a single droplet traces her cheek - raw heartbreak etched in every quiver. Medium two-shot from a slight low angle, desaturated teal and amber color grading for a melancholic cinematic haze."
Astronaut Reflection
"An astronaut drifts outside a space station, tether floating. The shot begins wide and slowly arcs around him, revealing Earth's glowing curve. Stars shimmer in infinite silence as the camera eases into a steady push-in on his visor reflection showing the blue marble of home."
Desert Caravan Painting
"A sweeping cinematic shot painted in the style of a surreal oil masterpiece. A caravan of riders crosses an endless desert beneath two glowing moons. The camera slowly pushes in, the brushstrokes shimmer with lifelike texture, horses and fabric folds subtly shifting as though painted by living hands. Warm amber tones dominate, contrasted with cool indigo shadows."
Tranquil Pond
"A tranquil pond at dusk, viewed in a wide cinematic frame. Soft golden-orange light from the setting sun reflects across the water. Raindrops fall gently, creating concentric ripples that spread naturally across the surface. A single green lotus leaf floats in the foreground, tilting as droplets slide off its edge and sparkle briefly."
