Asset Video Prompt

Generate AI video prompts: $ARGUMENTS

$ARGUMENTS should include:

• Description of the video concept (transition, reveal, transformation, loop)
• Optionally: start frame image path (to use as reference)
• Optionally: end frame image path
• Optionally: target video model (runway, kling, pika, higgsfield)
• Optionally: duration, aspect ratio
• Empty — ask the user for the concept

Before Starting

1. Read src/lib/config/tenant.config.ts for brand context
2. If start/end frame images exist, read them for visual reference
3. Determine the video type from the categories below

Video Types

1. Product Reveal / Deconstruction

Object assembles or disassembles — scroll-stop format.

• Start: assembled product on clean background
• End: exploded view with all components floating
• Or reverse: parts → assembled (equally compelling)

2. Transformation / Before-After

Scene or subject transforms between two states.

• Start: one state (e.g., empty room, closed book, bare landscape)
• End: transformed state (e.g., community gathering, open book with light, flourishing garden)

3. Parallax / Depth Reveal

Camera moves through layers of a scene, revealing depth.

• Static 2.5D image brought to life with subtle camera motion
• Great for hero sections, course intros

4. Zoom / Scale Transition

Macro to micro or micro to macro journey.

• Start: wide establishing shot
• End: extreme close-up detail (or reverse)

5. Loop / Cinemagraph

Seamless looping motion — a single element moves while the rest is still.

• Flickering candle, turning pages, flowing water, breathing animation
• Perfect for website hero backgrounds

6. Kinetic Typography

Text animates into frame with cinematic motion.

• Words reveal, assemble, or transform
• Great for course trailers, social clips

7. Narrative Sequence

Multi-scene storyboard — 2-4 connected shots telling a micro-story.

• Each scene described with transitions between them

Prompt Structure

Every video prompt has 5 sections. Write each explicitly for the target video model.

SECTION 1 — Start Frame

START FRAME:
[Detailed description of the opening image — subject, composition, lighting, colors, mood.
Include camera position, lens, and DOF if photorealistic.]

SECTION 2 — End Frame

END FRAME:
[Detailed description of the final image — what has changed, what remains constant.
Explicitly state what is DIFFERENT and what is the SAME as the start frame.]

SECTION 3 — Transition Choreography

TRANSITION:
[Describe the motion step by step. Include:
- What moves first, second, third (sequencing)
- Speed and easing (slow-in, slow-out, constant, accelerating)
- Direction of motion (up, down, outward, inward, along axis)
- Any rotations or reveals
- Timing: when each motion starts and ends relative to total duration
- What does NOT move (critical for stability)]

SECTION 4 — Style & Constraints

STYLE:
- Photorealistic / Cinematic / Illustrated / Abstract
- Lighting: consistent throughout, no flickering
- Camera: locked tripod / slow dolly / orbit / handheld
- Background: pure white / environmental / gradient
- Color: [palette description]
- Quality: high fidelity, smooth motion, no artifacts

SECTION 5 — Technical Specs

SPECS:
- Duration: [4-10 seconds]
- Aspect ratio: [16:9 / 9:16 / 1:1]
- Frame rate: [24fps / 30fps / 60fps]
- Resolution: [1080p / 4K]

Brand-Aligned Video Concepts for Alan Hirsch Platform

Course Trailer Concepts

• Book opening: A closed book slowly opens, pages fan, text illuminates — camera pushes in
• Community forming: Empty chairs in a circle → people arriving, settling in, conversation beginning
• Seed to tree: Time-lapse of a seed breaking soil, growing into a spreading tree (formation metaphor)
• Map unfolding: A folded map opens and spreads across a wooden table, routes illuminating

Social Content Concepts

• Quote reveal: Warm paper texture, words write themselves in ink — serif typography
• Scroll-stop deconstruction: Book or journal explodes into floating pages, binding, cover
• Candle cinemagraph: Warm scene with a single flickering candle — loopable hero

Hero Section Concepts

• Parallax neighborhood: Layers of a community street scene with subtle depth motion
• Breathing texture: Warm linen or paper texture with barely perceptible motion — alive but calm
• Golden hour shift: Subtle lighting shift from morning to golden hour across a static scene

Model-Specific Tips

Runway Gen-3/Gen-4

• Upload start and end frames as "First Frame" and "Last Frame"
• Keep prompt under 300 words for best results
• Specify camera motion explicitly: "locked tripod, no camera movement"
• Duration: 4-10 seconds
• Use "cinematic, smooth, high quality" as quality markers

Kling

• Supports longer durations (up to 15 seconds)
• Strong at character consistency
• Prompt in clear, sequential sentences
• Add "no sudden movements, smooth transitions" for stability

Pika

• Best for stylized/illustrated looks
• Shorter durations (3-5 seconds) produce better quality
• Good at text animation
• Use "consistent lighting, no flickering" explicitly

Higgsfield

• Excels at product/object animations
• Upload reference images for best consistency
• Strong at physics-based motion (floating, falling, assembling)

Execution

Step 1 — Define the Concept

Work with the user to nail down:

• What type of video (from categories above)?
• What's the subject?
• What's the start state and end state?
• What's the intended use (social, hero, course trailer)?

Step 2 — Generate Start/End Frame Prompts

If the user doesn't have start/end images yet, generate NB2 image prompts first:

• Use /asset-generate or /asset-product-shot for the start frame
• Use /asset-generate or /asset-exploded-view for the end frame
• Ensure both use identical lighting, camera angle, and palette

Step 3 — Write the Video Prompt

Compose the full 5-section video prompt. Show to user for approval.

Step 4 — Generate Variants

Offer 2-3 variants:

1. Standard: As described (e.g., 5 seconds, forward)
2. Reverse: End → Start (assembly instead of deconstruction)
3. Loop: Forward → Reverse seamlessly (for website backgrounds)

Step 5 — Deliver

Present all prompts in chat. If the user wants a polished delivery page, suggest /asset-deliver.

{full 5-section video prompt}

---

### VARIANT — Reverse Assembly
{reverse version}

### VARIANT — Seamless Loop

### Recommended Settings
| Setting | Value |
|---------|-------|
| Duration | 5 seconds |
| Aspect | 16:9 |
| Frame rate | 24fps |
| Resolution | 1080p minimum |
| Model | Any (Runway, Kling, Pika, Higgsfield) |

### Workflow
1. Generate start frame image with `/asset-generate` using the start frame prompt
2. Generate end frame image with `/asset-generate` using the end frame prompt
3. Upload both to your video model with the transition prompt
4. Use `/asset-brand-check` on the frames before generating video
