The Social Video Prompt

Design a social video.

Platform: [REELS / TIKTOK / SHORTS / STORIES]
Duration: [SECONDS]
Aspect ratio: [SPECIFY]
Goal: [AWARENESS / ENGAGEMENT / CONVERSION]
Subject: [DESCRIBE]

Produce:
1. The opening frame — what stops a scroll in the first half second
2. Shot list: how many shots, how long each
3. The motion in each shot, and how it sustains attention
4. Composition for vertical, if applicable — what changes
5. Where text overlay would sit, so the shot leaves room for it
6. The prompt for each shot
7. The end frame and what it does

Rules:
- Vertical composition is not cropped horizontal. Design for it.
- The first frame does more work than the rest of the video
  combined
- Fast cuts hide generation imperfections; long takes expose them
- Leave clean space where text will sit
- Motion that reads at small size on a phone, not motion that reads
  on a monitor
