The Loop & Seamless Motion Prompt

Create a shot that loops seamlessly.

Subject: [DESCRIBE]
Duration: [SECONDS]
Where it will be used: [BACKGROUND / SOCIAL / DISPLAY / WEB]

Produce:
1. What kind of motion loops well versus what does not
2. How to describe the motion so the start and end states match
3. Camera treatment — static almost always, and why
4. What to avoid: anything with a clear beginning or end, anything
   entering or leaving frame
5. The prompt text

Then:
6. How to fix a near-loop in post: crossfade, mirror, or trim
7. What length is best for this use case
8. Two subject ideas that would loop better than mine, if mine is
   difficult

Best loops: atmospheric motion, abstract patterns, water, smoke,
light, slow orbits, gentle repeating cycles. Worst loops: anything
with a narrative beat.
