Video prompt examples
A useful prompt separates the desired story from the source material. Provide exact wording and verified facts, then describe pacing, layout and the action at the end.
Product promo
“Create a 15-second product promo for [product]. Use the supplied photos to introduce the item, show [one verified feature] and finish with [exact action]. Keep on-screen text to [words]. Do not add claims, prices or reviews that are not in the supplied materials.”

What a prompt cannot prove
A prompt is a production instruction, not evidence that a feature, result or customer quote exists. Attach the source image or document for every factual claim. Use a reference video to describe rhythm, framing or transition ideas, and label the original creator.
