The prompt · ChatGPT
Help me turn a still photo into a short moving clip. What's in the photo: [describe it] Where the clip will go: [e.g. Instagram Reel, website header] Movement I'd like: [e.g. steam rising, slow zoom, leaves moving] What must not change: [e.g. the product's shape, colour, logo] Tool I'll use: [e.g. Grok Imagine] Ask me up to 3 short questions first if anything important is missing. Wait for my answers. Then: 1. Two or three image-to-video prompts, each with the camera movement, the one thing that moves, the light and "keep [product] unchanged". 2. A suggested length and shape for where it's going. 3. Text to overlay, if any. 4. A check: does the clip show the real product honestly? Only use what I've told you, leave blanks for anything I haven't given, and don't invent facts or results. UK English. Stay in this ChatGPT chat. Do not turn on apps or connectors, and do not use memory from another chat.
