The full story, plus gentle variants

Prompt library

Zombie love story prompts

Plan a 25-second story across separate model requests. The rainy-city partner storyboard uses six clips (4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 5 seconds), ending the cold scene on brief neck contact before a beach kiss at 16 seconds. Other selections use a 15-second cold clip and a ten-second memory. Choose from five settings and relationship-specific actions for partners, friends, mothers, fathers, dogs and cats.

The main cards share the studio’s current recipe builder. Each native H3 request stays within its supported duration. Our public V3 example is a separate manual edit with extra reference preparation, a replacement shot and sound finishing; copying these automatic-workflow prompts does not reproduce those steps. Inspect every clip and the joined output.

How to use these prompts

Reference image 1 is the adult human; reference image 2 is the loved one or pet. Only the second subject receives fictional zombie styling in the cold opening. Keep this order in every separate request. The main cards request portrait 9:16; inspect the delivered dimensions. The rainy-city plan uses six clips, while other scenes use separate 15-second and ten-second requests.

The rainy-city card contains six separate shot prompts; other full-story cards use a cold scene and a memory prompt. For manual generation, submit each part separately with the same ordered photos, then join the validated clips. “Use in studio” opens that story selection for review. Do not paste all parts into one native H3 request or set its native duration to 25 seconds.

The main story and the gentle variants are different

The five main cards use two different structures. The rainy-city partner story follows six clips: standoff, separate tears, gun lowering and open arms, a lunge, closed eyes, shoulder and neck contact, then a hard cut to a healthy beach kiss and sunset memory. It does not add a recognition-object insert or a gentle cold embrace. The other cards keep the two-part structure with a familiar-detail insert, reunion and a separate warm memory.

The four gentle variants below intentionally omit the raised gun and rushing approach. They are quieter adaptations for a different mood, not evidence that the complete story has been generated. Their ten-second timing and smaller gestures should be assessed on their own terms.

Choose a role and a real recognition detail

Partners can use an affectionate forehead touch and small shared turn. Friends use a shoulder squeeze and relaxed shared laugh. Mom and Dad versions keep both people at their reference ages and use family gestures, with no romance or flirting. Dog and Cat versions have no weapon and preserve the animal’s actual species and natural movement.

An optional recognition detail should describe something actually visible in the second photo: an existing earring, clothing texture, fur marking or collar. The cold prompt gives that detail a dedicated insert. Do not invent a necklace or collar just because another example used one. Without a supplied detail, the prompt asks the model to select a visible feature from the reference.

A character sheet is optional preparation, not an automatic part of the video workflow. If preparing one separately, ask for front, three-quarter and side views with the same face or animal markings, actual clothing and existing detail. Keep the lighting neutral and do not add zombie styling to the identity sheet.

Change the setting without losing the story

Keep the two identities, screen positions and connecting gesture fixed while you change the location. Replace one setting at a time. A kitchen can become a garden, or a balcony can become a train platform, as long as the pose and camera angle still make sense on both sides of the cut.

If the full sequence asks too much of a model, remove camera movement first. Next, reduce the action to a hand offered and a gentle embrace. Save decorative weather, moving vehicles and background crowds for a later version after the faces and edit work.

Choose your scene

Snow cabin · 15-second cold scene + 10-second memory

Complete two-part story: snow cabin

An approximately 25-second plan made from two separate H3 clips. The cold segment has time for a real recognition-detail insert, visible gun lowering, open arms, a running approach and a held embrace. The warm segment adds three small happy moments. Requested actions still need output inspection.

0–2s
The standoff
Image 1 faces Image 2 across a short distance in the cold setting.
2–4s
Unable to fire
The pistol rises into view; tears and shaking hands show hesitation.
4–6s
The familiar detail
A dedicated two-second insert shows a feature actually visible in the second reference.
6–8s
Recognition and lowering
The reaction is followed by a continuous downward movement until the gun leaves the frame.
8–9s
Empty, open hands
Both empty arms open toward the approaching partner.
9–11s
The short run
The partner runs a few strides into the waiting embrace.
11–13s
The embrace
Hands and arms settle into believable, readable contact.
13–15s
Hold the edit point
A steady medium embrace ends the cold clip. No warm scene belongs in this segment.
15–18s
Hard cut to the past
The memory clip begins already warm and healthy in a matching embrace; the joining edit is a hard cut.
18–20s
A small shared moment
The couple share a brief forehead touch. Family and friend versions use platonic gestures instead.
20–22s
A second memory beat
One easy half-turn and a laugh, without changing the location.
22–25s
The remembered smile
Settle into a shared smile and a close view of the second subject.

Full prompt

PART 1 — COLD: SEPARATE 15-SECOND GENERATION
Create a fictional cinematic story using exactly two ordered reference images. Image 1 defines the first subject and image 2 defines the second. Preserve their distinct appearance, hair or fur, visible clothing and actual reference details. Do not add other characters. The two subjects are adult romantic partners. Their reunion is affectionate and gentle. Keep the first subject on screen-left and the second on screen-right in all two-shots. Use consistent camera height and a simple natural composition. Choose one distinctive detail actually visible in reference image 2, such as existing clothing texture, a visible earring or a recognizable facial feature. Keep its shape and color unchanged; never invent jewelry, scars or other accessories. Produce ONLY the 15-second COLD PRESENT clip. Location: Outside a snowbound wooden cabin among dark fir trees, with ice-blue snow, visible breath and a dim kitchen window. Image 1 stays fully human. Only image 2 has subtle theatrical zombie styling: pale cool skin and tired eyes, without blood, wounds, cuts, exposed flesh or deformed teeth. Cold desaturated winter-blue light and restrained handheld shots. Use clear editorial cuts between shot sizes so each action remains readable. Do not include a warm memory, a cure, a dissolve or a location transformation anywhere in this clip. 0–2 seconds: wide two-shot of the human and the recognizable zombie three short strides apart in the cold location. 2–4 seconds: close-up of the human. A small pistol rises from below frame into view, tears collect at the eyes and both hands visibly tremble. The human cannot fire. 4–6 seconds: hold a full two-second insert on the selected recognition detail actually visible in reference image 2. Frame the detail clearly with a little of the face or clothing around it; do not replace this insert with a general face shot when a specific detail was supplied. 6–8 seconds: return to the human as recognition changes their expression. Show one continuous downward motion as the pistol and both hands descend completely below frame. The human chooses not to shoot; no gunfire. 8–9 seconds: medium two-shot showing both EMPTY hands as the human opens their arms. The pistol stays out of sight from this point onward. 9–11 seconds: the second subject runs the three short strides into those open arms, with visibly quicker running steps rather than standing still or shuffling. The human stays planted; this is a reunion, never a bite or strike. 11–13 seconds: the approach ends in an embrace with readable, natural arm and hand contact. 13–15 seconds: lock the final embrace into this exact composition and hold it for the last two seconds: A steady waist-up medium two-shot: first subject screen-left, second screen-right, the second subject’s left cheek near the first subject’s right shoulder, arms naturally around shoulders and back. End still embracing in the cold location; this is the stable editing match point. Do not skip the recognition insert, the visible decision or the readable contact. No extra limbs, blood, text, captions, logos, music or dialogue. Audio: quiet location ambience, breathing and footsteps; no gunshot.

PART 2 — MEMORY: SEPARATE 10-SECOND GENERATION
Create a fictional cinematic story using exactly two ordered reference images. Image 1 defines the first subject and image 2 defines the second. Preserve their distinct appearance, hair or fur, visible clothing and actual reference details. Do not add other characters. The two subjects are adult romantic partners. Their reunion is affectionate and gentle. Keep the first subject on screen-left and the second on screen-right in all two-shots. Use consistent camera height and a simple natural composition. Choose one distinctive detail actually visible in reference image 2, such as existing clothing texture, a visible earring or a recognizable facial feature. Keep its shape and color unchanged; never invent jewelry, scars or other accessories. Produce ONLY a 10-second WARM MEMORY from an earlier time before the fictional infection. Location: Inside the same wooden cabin on an earlier bright summer morning, beside its golden sunlit kitchen window. Both reference subjects are healthy from the first frame. This is a past memory, never recovery or transformation in the present. No zombie makeup or wounds. Warm natural light and a calm camera. An external editor will place this clip after the cold clip with a HARD CUT. Start directly in the warm scene: no fade, dissolve, flash, transformation or establishing wide shot. 0–3 seconds: begin already in the final embrace pose. A steady waist-up medium two-shot: first subject screen-left, second screen-right, the second subject’s left cheek near the first subject’s right shoulder, arms naturally around shoulders and back. Hold a shared breath and then gently separate just enough to reveal both faces. 3–5 seconds: a brief affectionate forehead touch in a medium close-up; keep the two facial structures separate. 5–7 seconds: one easy half-turn together, hands low and natural, followed by a small shared laugh; no fast dance or full spin. 7–10 seconds: settle into a close two-shot, then a relaxed smile from the second subject toward the first. These are several small happy moments in the same earlier memory, not unrelated locations. Preserve the chosen recognition detail. Clear simple cuts between moments; believable hands, faces and species-appropriate anatomy. No weapons, injuries, text, subtitles, logos, music or spoken words. Audio: quiet setting ambience and small natural nonverbal reactions.

Use in studio

At the edit: These are two separate native model requests, not a single 25-second H3 prompt. The studio story mode uses the selected scene and relationship to build both segments. For manual use, copy each labeled part into a separate request and keep the same two reference images. The second generation cannot see the first clip merely because its prompt names a matching pose; inspect the cut and framing.

Rainy city → sunset beach · 6 separate clips (4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 5 seconds)

6-part story: rainy city to sunset beach

A 25-second automatic story plan across 6 separate H3 clips: a ruined-city standoff, two tears, gun lowering and open arms, a lunge and neck contact, then a beach kiss and sunset memory. These prompts describe requested actions. The public V3 example additionally used prepared references, a replacement eye shot, manual selection and sound editing; those steps are not in this automatic plan.

0–4s
The ruined-city standoff
His tearful face, the over-the-shoulder distance and his raised pistol establish the encounter.
4–8s
Two emotional close-ups
Her closed-mouth zombie face and his eye receive separate close-ups with tears.
8–12s
Open arms, then the lunge
He lowers the pistol and spreads his arms; she pauses with her mouth closed before suddenly lunging.
12–16s
Reaction and shoulder contact
He closes his eyes after seeing the attack; she runs in, grips his shoulders and reaches his neck before the cut.
16–20s
The beach kiss and smiles
The healthy couple kiss from the first frame, then each face has a separate smiling close-up.
20–25s
The sunset ending
A hand-in-hand run, a forehead kiss and the seated wide ending complete the memory.

Full prompt

PART 1 — COLD-01-STANDOFF: SEPARATE 4-SECOND GENERATION
A live-action cinematic scene with exactly the two fictional adults from the identity references. Reference image 1 is the healthy adult man; reference image 2 is the adult woman, his partner. Preserve their actual youthful-adult ages, facial proportions, hair color and identity. The man has his original dark curls, short beard, olive overshirt and light T-shirt. The woman has her original copper-brown hair, green eyes and rust-red knitted sweater. Use the references for identity, not their clean portrait styling. No extra people, military uniforms, logos, captions or subtitles. Vertical portrait 9:16. This is intimate tragic horror with restrained, believable human acting, never exaggerated pantomime. Same long-abandoned city street in cold blue-gray rain: burned-out dented cars with missing windows, flat tires, rust and grime, broken storefront glass, peeling facades, scattered rubble, soaked trash, weeds through asphalt cracks and puddles, distant mist. No clean shiny cars, intact cheerful shops, traffic or pedestrians. Both people are drenched; cloth is visibly rain-darkened, muddy and worn. Her rust-red sweater is frayed at cuffs and hem with small torn holes and dirt; hair is wet and stringy, stuck to her temples and cheeks, not a salon blowout. Her face remains the SAME young adult woman, with normal cheek volume and smooth young-adult forehead: translucent sickly gray-green pallor, subtly branching blue-gray veins at temples and neck, bruised violet under-eyes, slightly desaturated irises and dry pale lips. This is realistic subtle prosthetic makeup, not blue face paint, a skull, an old woman, deep forehead wrinkles, sunken skeletal cheeks or enormous black eye circles. No blood, open wounds or exposed flesh. The man remains fully human. Photographed like a high-budget dramatic feature: natural skin pores, wet eyelashes, individual water droplets, physically plausible reflections, soft overcast bounce, subtle film grain and shallow but usable depth of field. Faces and eyes stay optically sharp in close-ups; background falls out of focus. Gentle motivated camera movement only. Real-time natural motion, no slow motion, time lapse, frozen frames, morphing, dissolves or beauty filters. Every specified hard cut is a distinct shot; never substitute a long static portrait for the shot list. FOUR SECONDS, THREE SHOTS. 0.0–1.2s: tight close-up of the man’s devastated face; brows pinch upward with grief, lower lip subtly trembles, wet eyes struggle to focus on his partner, a tear tracks down his cheek. His raised pistol is blurred in the lower foreground. HARD CUT at 1.2s to a 35mm over-the-shoulder view from behind the man, his head and shoulder on the LEFT foreground; the woman stands about six metres ahead on the RIGHT of the ruined wet street, visibly soaked and dishevelled, mouth closed, arms resting down. Clearly show the ruined environment and the distance, until 2.7s. HARD CUT at 2.7s to a frontal chest-up shot of the man holding the pistol in both trembling hands, unable to shoot, struggling for breath with tears in his eyes. Hold through 4.0s. The gun is never fired. He has not lowered it yet. SYNCHRONIZED NATURAL SOUND: soft steady rain on broken cars and puddles, faint distant wind, the man’s restrained unsteady breathing and a tiny involuntary sob. No dialogue, narration, music, gunshot or monster roar in this clip. Keep the ambience subdued and detailed.

PART 2 — COLD-02-TWO-TEARS: SEPARATE 4-SECOND GENERATION
A live-action cinematic scene with exactly the two fictional adults from the identity references. Reference image 1 is the healthy adult man; reference image 2 is the adult woman, his partner. Preserve their actual youthful-adult ages, facial proportions, hair color and identity. The man has his original dark curls, short beard, olive overshirt and light T-shirt. The woman has her original copper-brown hair, green eyes and rust-red knitted sweater. Use the references for identity, not their clean portrait styling. No extra people, military uniforms, logos, captions or subtitles. Vertical portrait 9:16. This is intimate tragic horror with restrained, believable human acting, never exaggerated pantomime. Same long-abandoned city street in cold blue-gray rain: burned-out dented cars with missing windows, flat tires, rust and grime, broken storefront glass, peeling facades, scattered rubble, soaked trash, weeds through asphalt cracks and puddles, distant mist. No clean shiny cars, intact cheerful shops, traffic or pedestrians. Both people are drenched; cloth is visibly rain-darkened, muddy and worn. Her rust-red sweater is frayed at cuffs and hem with small torn holes and dirt; hair is wet and stringy, stuck to her temples and cheeks, not a salon blowout. Her face remains the SAME young adult woman, with normal cheek volume and smooth young-adult forehead: translucent sickly gray-green pallor, subtly branching blue-gray veins at temples and neck, bruised violet under-eyes, slightly desaturated irises and dry pale lips. This is realistic subtle prosthetic makeup, not blue face paint, a skull, an old woman, deep forehead wrinkles, sunken skeletal cheeks or enormous black eye circles. No blood, open wounds or exposed flesh. The man remains fully human. Photographed like a high-budget dramatic feature: natural skin pores, wet eyelashes, individual water droplets, physically plausible reflections, soft overcast bounce, subtle film grain and shallow but usable depth of field. Faces and eyes stay optically sharp in close-ups; background falls out of focus. Gentle motivated camera movement only. Real-time natural motion, no slow motion, time lapse, frozen frames, morphing, dissolves or beauty filters. Every specified hard cut is a distinct shot; never substitute a long static portrait for the shot list. FOUR SECONDS, ONLY TWO EMOTIONAL CLOSE-UPS. 0.0–2.0s: 85mm frontal close-up of the woman, from forehead to collarbone. Her lips stay gently CLOSED, no teeth visible; her expression is quiet, vacant and sorrowful, not snarling. Her gaze fixes softly on the man; lower eyelids redden, one real clear tear wells at the lower lid, spills and visibly rolls down her gray-green cheek. Separate the single teardrop from the fine rain on her face. Keep her young facial structure, wet flat strands of hair, subtle veins and dark violet under-eyes. No angry eyebrow caricature. HARD CUT exactly at 2.0s to a 100mm macro EXTREME close-up of the MAN’S one eye, upper cheek and edge of nose filling the entire frame. His reddened wet eye trembles; a rounded clear tear gathers below the lid and visibly slips down his skin, catching a tiny soft highlight. Hold this eye-and-teardrop shot through 4.0s. It must be a real isolated eye extreme close-up, not another full-face portrait. Do not show the gun, lower it, open arms or start running here. SYNCHRONIZED NATURAL SOUND: same continuous fine rain bed and distant wind. Close, fragile nasal breathing and a restrained human sob under the male eye shot. Almost silent emotional tension, no words, no music, no growl and no scream yet.

PART 3 — COLD-03-OPEN-ARMS-TRIGGER: SEPARATE 4-SECOND GENERATION
A live-action cinematic scene with exactly the two fictional adults from the identity references. Reference image 1 is the healthy adult man; reference image 2 is the adult woman, his partner. Preserve their actual youthful-adult ages, facial proportions, hair color and identity. The man has his original dark curls, short beard, olive overshirt and light T-shirt. The woman has her original copper-brown hair, green eyes and rust-red knitted sweater. Use the references for identity, not their clean portrait styling. No extra people, military uniforms, logos, captions or subtitles. Vertical portrait 9:16. This is intimate tragic horror with restrained, believable human acting, never exaggerated pantomime. Same long-abandoned city street in cold blue-gray rain: burned-out dented cars with missing windows, flat tires, rust and grime, broken storefront glass, peeling facades, scattered rubble, soaked trash, weeds through asphalt cracks and puddles, distant mist. No clean shiny cars, intact cheerful shops, traffic or pedestrians. Both people are drenched; cloth is visibly rain-darkened, muddy and worn. Her rust-red sweater is frayed at cuffs and hem with small torn holes and dirt; hair is wet and stringy, stuck to her temples and cheeks, not a salon blowout. Her face remains the SAME young adult woman, with normal cheek volume and smooth young-adult forehead: translucent sickly gray-green pallor, subtly branching blue-gray veins at temples and neck, bruised violet under-eyes, slightly desaturated irises and dry pale lips. This is realistic subtle prosthetic makeup, not blue face paint, a skull, an old woman, deep forehead wrinkles, sunken skeletal cheeks or enormous black eye circles. No blood, open wounds or exposed flesh. The man remains fully human. Photographed like a high-budget dramatic feature: natural skin pores, wet eyelashes, individual water droplets, physically plausible reflections, soft overcast bounce, subtle film grain and shallow but usable depth of field. Faces and eyes stay optically sharp in close-ups; background falls out of focus. Gentle motivated camera movement only. Real-time natural motion, no slow motion, time lapse, frozen frames, morphing, dissolves or beauty filters. Every specified hard cut is a distinct shot; never substitute a long static portrait for the shot list. FOUR SECONDS, TWO SHOTS WITH A SUDDEN CHANGE. 0.0–2.5s: steady frontal waist-up medium shot of the man. Start with pistol held in both hands toward camera. He visibly lowers it, releases his left hand, then opens his chest and spreads his arms WIDELY in invitation: left arm clearly extends to shoulder height, right arm extends outward lower at about 45 degrees with pistol pointing down at the ground. His wrists and arms finish well clear of his torso, not hanging narrowly by his hips. Show the lowering and wide arm opening as one continuous readable action. No gun vanishing, throw, firing or cut that hides the movement. Tears on his cheeks and his breath catching. HARD CUT at 2.5s to a tight front view of the woman. From 2.5–3.25s she is briefly STILL and quiet, lips fully CLOSED, teeth invisible, sorrowful wet eyes and a lingering tear on her cheek. At 3.25s her gaze snaps fiercely into focus, mouth suddenly opens wide, shoulders jolt forward and she abruptly lunges into her first rapid step TOWARD the man/camera. The shock happens only AFTER the short closed-mouth calm. End at 4.0s with her forward attack already underway; do not reach the man yet. SYNCHRONIZED SOUND DESIGN: low rain and the man’s shaky breath until 3.25s. During the closed-mouth pause briefly pull the rain back. At the exact sudden mouth-opening / forward-lunge moment, one startling deep guttural animal-like female creature roar erupts, rough organic throat texture with breath and an upper rasp, not robotic, cartoonish or a spoken word. One short wet footstep launches under it. The roar is powerful but clean, never clipped or distorted. No musical sting and no dialogue.

PART 4 — COLD-04-GRAB-BITE: SEPARATE 4-SECOND GENERATION
A live-action cinematic scene with exactly the two fictional adults from the identity references. Reference image 1 is the healthy adult man; reference image 2 is the adult woman, his partner. Preserve their actual youthful-adult ages, facial proportions, hair color and identity. The man has his original dark curls, short beard, olive overshirt and light T-shirt. The woman has her original copper-brown hair, green eyes and rust-red knitted sweater. Use the references for identity, not their clean portrait styling. No extra people, military uniforms, logos, captions or subtitles. Vertical portrait 9:16. This is intimate tragic horror with restrained, believable human acting, never exaggerated pantomime. Same long-abandoned city street in cold blue-gray rain: burned-out dented cars with missing windows, flat tires, rust and grime, broken storefront glass, peeling facades, scattered rubble, soaked trash, weeds through asphalt cracks and puddles, distant mist. No clean shiny cars, intact cheerful shops, traffic or pedestrians. Both people are drenched; cloth is visibly rain-darkened, muddy and worn. Her rust-red sweater is frayed at cuffs and hem with small torn holes and dirt; hair is wet and stringy, stuck to her temples and cheeks, not a salon blowout. Her face remains the SAME young adult woman, with normal cheek volume and smooth young-adult forehead: translucent sickly gray-green pallor, subtly branching blue-gray veins at temples and neck, bruised violet under-eyes, slightly desaturated irises and dry pale lips. This is realistic subtle prosthetic makeup, not blue face paint, a skull, an old woman, deep forehead wrinkles, sunken skeletal cheeks or enormous black eye circles. No blood, open wounds or exposed flesh. The man remains fully human. Photographed like a high-budget dramatic feature: natural skin pores, wet eyelashes, individual water droplets, physically plausible reflections, soft overcast bounce, subtle film grain and shallow but usable depth of field. Faces and eyes stay optically sharp in close-ups; background falls out of focus. Gentle motivated camera movement only. Real-time natural motion, no slow motion, time lapse, frozen frames, morphing, dissolves or beauty filters. Every specified hard cut is a distinct shot; never substitute a long static portrait for the shot list. FOUR SECONDS, THREE SHOTS. The woman has ALREADY begun lunging at him just before this clip; the man reacts to seeing that. 0.0–1.35s: tight 85mm full-face close-up of the man, eyes OPEN with grief and alarm, a tear already travelling down his cheek toward his jaw. His breath catches, jaw relaxes in acceptance, both eyelids close SLOWLY and visibly over about 0.7s; hold them fully shut before cutting. Do not start with already closed eyes. HARD CUT at 1.35s to a 35mm over-the-shoulder shot from behind the man, shoulder on LEFT foreground. The woman is a few fast running strides away; she sprints directly toward him, mouth open, both hands reaching forward like tense HUMAN claws, five fingers per hand, no animal paws. Fast wet footfalls, hair and worn sweater moving; natural 180-degree-shutter motion blur on hands, hair and background edges makes the rush feel abrupt and frightening while her face remains readable. Her outstretched hands visibly land on and GRIP BOTH of his shoulders by 2.9s. HARD CUT at 2.9s to a close waist-up side two-shot: man LEFT, woman RIGHT, she already grips his shoulders, he holds his chest open and eyes closed. Her open mouth moves toward the side of his neck; her head turns inward, and the BITE BEGINS right as her mouth makes contact at 3.9–4.0s. End at this first neck-contact instant, no lingering biting, chewing, wound or blood. Make it read as a neck bite, not a kiss on the lips. The following separate clip will hard-cut to the same couple warmly embracing and kissing at the beach. Do not generate the beach in this cold clip. SYNCHRONIZED NATURAL SOUND: a tail of the previous creature roar behind the male reaction, his wet uneven inhale then a small surrendering exhale. Wet running footfalls accelerate, water splashes, a short air rush, a soft heavy shoulder impact and two cloth-grip rustles. The creature’s close guttural breath lands at neck contact. No gunfire, bone-crunch, chewing, dialogue or music. Keep the final contact tight and visceral; its sound will cut instantly to the beach.

PART 5 — WARM-05-MATCH-KISS-SMILES: SEPARATE 4-SECOND GENERATION
A live-action cinematic scene with exactly the two fictional adults from the identity references. Reference image 1 is the healthy adult man; reference image 2 is the adult woman, his partner. Preserve their actual youthful-adult ages, facial proportions, hair color and identity. The man has his original dark curls, short beard, olive overshirt and light T-shirt. The woman has her original copper-brown hair, green eyes and rust-red knitted sweater. Use the references for identity, not their clean portrait styling. No extra people, military uniforms, logos, captions or subtitles. Vertical portrait 9:16. This is intimate tragic horror with restrained, believable human acting, never exaggerated pantomime. An earlier happy memory on an empty beach at golden sunset. Both adults are already healthy at the first frame, wearing the same recognizable clothes now clean and dry, naturally tousled hair, warm realistic skin and joyful eyes. The woman has her normal youthful face and recognizable freckles, never zombie makeup. The ocean and low sun are behind them, softly glowing rim light and gentle surf. No city, weapon, rain, transformation effect or other people. Natural intimate acting, detailed skin and cloth, no beauty-filter plastic skin. Photographed like a high-budget dramatic feature: natural skin pores, wet eyelashes, individual water droplets, physically plausible reflections, soft overcast bounce, subtle film grain and shallow but usable depth of field. Faces and eyes stay optically sharp in close-ups; background falls out of focus. Gentle motivated camera movement only. Real-time natural motion, no slow motion, time lapse, frozen frames, morphing, dissolves or beauty filters. Every specified hard cut is a distinct shot; never substitute a long static portrait for the shot list. FOUR SECONDS, THREE SHOTS. The FIRST FRAME is already a passionate, mutual, non-explicit LIP KISS in a close waist-up SIDE two-shot at golden sunset: man screen LEFT, woman screen RIGHT, her two arms wrapped around his shoulders and neck, his arms securely around her upper back and waist. This embrace is a compositional match to the preceding dark scene’s hands-on-shoulders contact. They draw each other close and kiss warmly with believable gentle lip contact; no approach or delay before the kiss. Hold the kiss and embrace 0.0–1.45s; from 1.45–2.0s they slowly part their lips just slightly, noses close, sharing a relieved loving smile while still holding each other. HARD CUT at 2.0s to the woman’s healthy warm smiling face, looking at him, freckles and eyes catching sunlight; hold until 3.0s. HARD CUT at 3.0s to a separate close-up of the man’s warm smiling face looking back, until 4.0s. Both individual face close-ups are mandatory. Keep the kiss tender and deeply affectionate, with tiny natural head and hand movement, no exaggerated tongue or sexualized action. SYNCHRONIZED NATURAL SOUND: warm soft surf from the FIRST FRAME, a close relaxed breath, gentle clothes moving in the embrace and a very subtle natural lip-kiss sound. Tiny shared breathy laughs as they smile. No monster, rain, gun, dialogue, narration or music. Sound should abruptly feel safe and open, like a happy memory.

PART 6 — WARM-06-RUN-SUNSET: SEPARATE 5-SECOND GENERATION
A live-action cinematic scene with exactly the two fictional adults from the identity references. Reference image 1 is the healthy adult man; reference image 2 is the adult woman, his partner. Preserve their actual youthful-adult ages, facial proportions, hair color and identity. The man has his original dark curls, short beard, olive overshirt and light T-shirt. The woman has her original copper-brown hair, green eyes and rust-red knitted sweater. Use the references for identity, not their clean portrait styling. No extra people, military uniforms, logos, captions or subtitles. Vertical portrait 9:16. This is intimate tragic horror with restrained, believable human acting, never exaggerated pantomime. An earlier happy memory on an empty beach at golden sunset. Both adults are already healthy at the first frame, wearing the same recognizable clothes now clean and dry, naturally tousled hair, warm realistic skin and joyful eyes. The woman has her normal youthful face and recognizable freckles, never zombie makeup. The ocean and low sun are behind them, softly glowing rim light and gentle surf. No city, weapon, rain, transformation effect or other people. Natural intimate acting, detailed skin and cloth, no beauty-filter plastic skin. Photographed like a high-budget dramatic feature: natural skin pores, wet eyelashes, individual water droplets, physically plausible reflections, soft overcast bounce, subtle film grain and shallow but usable depth of field. Faces and eyes stay optically sharp in close-ups; background falls out of focus. Gentle motivated camera movement only. Real-time natural motion, no slow motion, time lapse, frozen frames, morphing, dissolves or beauty filters. Every specified hard cut is a distinct shot; never substitute a long static portrait for the shot list. FIVE SECONDS, THREE SHOTS. 0.0–2.0s: rear medium-long view of the same couple holding hands and RUNNING together away from camera along the waterline. Linked hands, alternating running strides, feet splashing shallow surf and wind moving hair are all visible; not walking or posing. HARD CUT at 2.0s to a side/rear medium two-shot, they stand close with the woman resting her head against him. From 2.0–3.5s the man gently kisses her forehead at the hairline, with clearly visible gentle contact and her small contented closed-eye smile; this is not another lip kiss. HARD CUT at 3.5s to a wide distant rear shot: they are already seated together on sand, his arm around her back, her head resting against him, looking toward the low sun above the ocean horizon. Keep plenty of beach and sky around their small figures. Hold this final seated sunset until 5.0s, with breathing, tiny hair movement and real waves; no extra close-up after it. SYNCHRONIZED NATURAL SOUND: continuous gentle warm surf and sea breeze, light wet footsteps and small happy breathy laughs during the run, soft clothing at the forehead kiss. Settle into peaceful distant waves under the wide sunset. No speech or narration, no horror sounds, no abrupt unrelated music.

Use in studio

At the edit: Submit each labeled part separately using its stated duration and the same two identity references. The current plan uses five four-second requests followed by one five-second request, with the warm memory starting at 16 seconds. Inspect the neck contact and hard cut, both tear close-ups and both smiling portraits. Trim only validated excess footage; do not hide missing shots or short outputs with speed changes or frozen padding. The public edited example required extra reference preparation and finishing beyond these prompts.

Full prompt

PART 1 — COLD: SEPARATE 15-SECOND GENERATION
Create a fictional cinematic story using exactly two ordered reference images. Image 1 defines the first subject and image 2 defines the second. Preserve their distinct appearance, hair or fur, visible clothing and actual reference details. Do not add other characters. The two subjects are adult romantic partners. Their reunion is affectionate and gentle. Keep the first subject on screen-left and the second on screen-right in all two-shots. Use consistent camera height and a simple natural composition. Choose one distinctive detail actually visible in reference image 2, such as existing clothing texture, a visible earring or a recognizable facial feature. Keep its shape and color unchanged; never invent jewelry, scars or other accessories. Produce ONLY the 15-second COLD PRESENT clip. Location: At the end of an abandoned supermarket aisle, with empty carts, broken shelves, creeping vines and cold skylight. Image 1 stays fully human. Only image 2 has subtle theatrical zombie styling: pale cool skin and tired eyes, without blood, wounds, cuts, exposed flesh or deformed teeth. Cold desaturated winter-blue light and restrained handheld shots. Use clear editorial cuts between shot sizes so each action remains readable. Do not include a warm memory, a cure, a dissolve or a location transformation anywhere in this clip. 0–2 seconds: wide two-shot of the human and the recognizable zombie three short strides apart in the cold location. 2–4 seconds: close-up of the human. A small pistol rises from below frame into view, tears collect at the eyes and both hands visibly tremble. The human cannot fire. 4–6 seconds: hold a full two-second insert on the selected recognition detail actually visible in reference image 2. Frame the detail clearly with a little of the face or clothing around it; do not replace this insert with a general face shot when a specific detail was supplied. 6–8 seconds: return to the human as recognition changes their expression. Show one continuous downward motion as the pistol and both hands descend completely below frame. The human chooses not to shoot; no gunfire. 8–9 seconds: medium two-shot showing both EMPTY hands as the human opens their arms. The pistol stays out of sight from this point onward. 9–11 seconds: the second subject runs the three short strides into those open arms, with visibly quicker running steps rather than standing still or shuffling. The human stays planted; this is a reunion, never a bite or strike. 11–13 seconds: the approach ends in an embrace with readable, natural arm and hand contact. 13–15 seconds: lock the final embrace into this exact composition and hold it for the last two seconds: A steady waist-up medium two-shot: first subject screen-left, second screen-right, the second subject’s left cheek near the first subject’s right shoulder, arms naturally around shoulders and back. End still embracing in the cold location; this is the stable editing match point. Do not skip the recognition insert, the visible decision or the readable contact. No extra limbs, blood, text, captions, logos, music or dialogue. Audio: quiet location ambience, breathing and footsteps; no gunshot.

PART 2 — MEMORY: SEPARATE 10-SECOND GENERATION
Create a fictional cinematic story using exactly two ordered reference images. Image 1 defines the first subject and image 2 defines the second. Preserve their distinct appearance, hair or fur, visible clothing and actual reference details. Do not add other characters. The two subjects are adult romantic partners. Their reunion is affectionate and gentle. Keep the first subject on screen-left and the second on screen-right in all two-shots. Use consistent camera height and a simple natural composition. Choose one distinctive detail actually visible in reference image 2, such as existing clothing texture, a visible earring or a recognizable facial feature. Keep its shape and color unchanged; never invent jewelry, scars or other accessories. Produce ONLY a 10-second WARM MEMORY from an earlier time before the fictional infection. Location: In a clean, intact grocery aisle on an ordinary sunny afternoon before the collapse, sharing a familiar shopping memory. Both reference subjects are healthy from the first frame. This is a past memory, never recovery or transformation in the present. No zombie makeup or wounds. Warm natural light and a calm camera. An external editor will place this clip after the cold clip with a HARD CUT. Start directly in the warm scene: no fade, dissolve, flash, transformation or establishing wide shot. 0–3 seconds: begin already in the final embrace pose. A steady waist-up medium two-shot: first subject screen-left, second screen-right, the second subject’s left cheek near the first subject’s right shoulder, arms naturally around shoulders and back. Hold a shared breath and then gently separate just enough to reveal both faces. 3–5 seconds: a brief affectionate forehead touch in a medium close-up; keep the two facial structures separate. 5–7 seconds: one easy half-turn together, hands low and natural, followed by a small shared laugh; no fast dance or full spin. 7–10 seconds: settle into a close two-shot, then a relaxed smile from the second subject toward the first. These are several small happy moments in the same earlier memory, not unrelated locations. Preserve the chosen recognition detail. Clear simple cuts between moments; believable hands, faces and species-appropriate anatomy. No weapons, injuries, text, subtitles, logos, music or spoken words. Audio: quiet setting ambience and small natural nonverbal reactions.

Use in studio

Empty city → summer balcony

Gentle variant: a reunion in the rain

A familiar gesture connects a rainy street and a summer evening. This softer 10-second variant omits the raised gun and rushing approach.

0–3s
Recognition
Two adults face each other across an empty, wet street.
3–6s
The choice
The human opens their arms. The infected partner steps forward.
6–10s
The memory
Their embrace continues on a warm, sunlit balcony.

Full prompt

Creative storyboard, approximately 10 seconds, portrait 9:16. Use reference A for the adult human on the left and reference B for their adult partner on the right. Preserve the two identities, hair, clothing silhouettes and screen positions. 0–3 seconds: a steady medium two-shot on a deserted city street in soft rain. B has pale skin and a tired, non-graphic zombie appearance; no wounds or blood. A recognizes B and relaxes their shoulders. 3–6 seconds: A opens both arms, B takes two slow steps toward A, and they gently embrace. Keep both faces readable before contact. At the embrace, make a hard match cut on the same arm positions and camera angle. 6–10 seconds: flash back to an earlier memory, before the infection. The same couple completes the hug on a small balcony in late-summer sunlight; B is healthy in this past memory, and both breathe out and smile. Make this an earlier happy moment, not a cure or recovery. Cool blue-gray rain becomes warm amber daylight. One calm camera push, natural movement, no extra people, no text, no logos, no violence. Sound, if supported: quiet rain changing to a soft outdoor breeze; no music.

Use in studio

At the edit: For separate clips, save the final rainy embrace as the pose reference for the first balcony frame. Cut on contact; avoid a long dissolve that overlays the faces.

Abandoned cabin → bright kitchen

Gentle variant: the cabin at sunrise

A hand on a familiar jacket connects an anxious reunion and an ordinary morning. This softer 10-second variant omits the raised gun and rushing approach.

0–3s
The doorway
The infected partner appears at a dim cabin door.
3–6s
A familiar touch
The human reaches for their sleeve and draws them close.
6–10s
An ordinary morning
The same gesture continues in a sunlit kitchen.

Full prompt

Plan a fictional 10-second zombie love story with two consenting adult characters, reference A and reference B. Landscape 16:9. A remains human; B has a subtle, non-graphic infected appearance only in the opening scene. Keep A on the left and B on the right throughout. 0–3 seconds: locked medium shot inside a weathered cabin, soft dawn light entering behind B in the doorway. A hesitates, then notices B tilt their head in a familiar way. 3–6 seconds: A gently touches B’s jacket sleeve and invites an embrace. B responds slowly; no lunging or attack. Match cut when A’s hand rests on B’s shoulder. 6–10 seconds: flash back to a morning before the infection, with identical framing and hand placement in a small kitchen flooded with warm morning light. B is healthy in this earlier memory; this is not a cure or recovery. The couple holds the embrace, then shares a quiet smile. Preserve facial identity and jacket colors between scenes. Keep the camera level and the hand movement simple. No weapons, gore, extra limbs, additional characters, captions or watermarks. If the model supports audio, use a creaking doorway followed by quiet morning ambience.

Use in studio

At the edit: The shoulder touch is the edit point. Use similar framing and jacket colors in both clips so the location change carries the story.

Stormy shoreline → golden-hour shore

Gentle variant: afterlight on the beach

Keep the landscape nearly unchanged and let posture carry the memory. This softer 10-second variant omits the raised gun and rushing approach.

0–3s
The shoreline
Two figures stand beside the water under a gray sky.
3–6s
The hand offered
The human offers a hand; their partner accepts it.
6–10s
A warmer world
A cut reveals the same pair embracing in golden light.

Full prompt

A 10-second creative shot plan, portrait 9:16, emotional rather than frightening. Cast the two adult people in references A and B. A is human; B is their infected partner with pale, slightly gray skin and no visible injury. 0–3 seconds: medium-wide two-shot on a quiet beach under an overcast sky. A and B face each other, with the sea behind them and an uncluttered horizon. 3–6 seconds: A offers one open hand. B accepts, takes one step closer, and they begin a gentle hug. Keep the joined hands low and visible. Cut at the moment their shoulders meet, retaining the camera position, horizon and body pose. 6–10 seconds: flash back to the same beach at golden hour before the infection, B healthy in the earlier memory, the couple finishing that same embrace and turning slightly toward the ocean. Show a memory, not a cure or recovery. Use the same clothes and hair in both scenes. Cool desaturated tones become soft gold. Minimal camera movement, consistent horizon, natural anatomy, no crowd, no text, no injury or aggression. If audio is supported, keep gentle surf continuous across the cut.

Use in studio

At the edit: Use the horizon as your alignment guide. A continuous surf track can bridge separately generated shots; use audio you have permission to publish.

Deserted roadside → summer overlook

Gentle variant: one more road trip

A parked car connects an uncertain encounter and a shared travel memory. This softer 10-second variant omits the raised gun and rushing approach.

0–3s
The waiting car
The human spots their infected partner beside a parked car.
3–6s
Welcome back
They recognize each other and move into an embrace.
6–10s
The open road
The hug continues at a sunny mountain overlook.

Full prompt

Create a fictional storyboard targeting 10 seconds, landscape 16:9. The two adult identity references are A, the human, and B, their partner. 0–3 seconds: a still medium two-shot beside a stationary, unbranded car on an empty roadside in cloudy light. A stands left, B stands right. B looks subtly infected, with pale skin and a weary expression, but no wounds. A recognizes B and opens their arms. 3–6 seconds: B walks one step forward; they hold a gentle embrace next to the closed car door. Match cut on the embrace without changing lens, camera height, body positions or the car’s placement. 6–10 seconds: flash back to a summer road trip before the infection, with the same couple and car at a sunny mountain overlook. B is healthy in this past memory; both smile while holding each other. This is an earlier happy moment, not a cure or recovery. Preserve faces, hairstyles and clothes. Keep the car parked, the background simple and all motion slow. Gray light changes to warm afternoon light. No driving, weapons, gore, brands, text or extra people. Optional audio when supported: a quiet breeze and distant birds, no copyrighted song.

Use in studio

At the edit: Keep the car door and shoulder positions aligned across the edit. Do not ask for a moving car as well as the identity and location transition.

Questions about this guide

Can I copy and adapt these prompts?

Yes. These original prompts are free to copy and adapt. You are responsible for permissions for your input photographs, any music you add, and the terms of your chosen generation service.

Link to this answer

Will the actions happen at the exact prompt timestamps?

No exact action timing is promised. Each free prompt lists its intended shot plan and requested clip lengths; those are creative targets, not verified output durations. The gentle variants target ten seconds. Inspect the recognition insert, lowering movement, approach and final edit rather than relying on the prompt timestamps.

Link to this answer

Does the prompt include the popular song?

No. The prompts describe optional natural ambience and do not provide or license a soundtrack. Add music you have permission to use in your editor or through your publishing platform.

Link to this answer

Can I use the same prompt for pets?

The main cards shown here use adult partners. Choose Dog or Cat in the studio for a separate weapon-free branch with the correct species, familiar fur details, kneeling contact and natural animal movement. Changing a name in the human prompt is not enough.
