The prompt

integrated_multimodal_description:

[Shot 1] Live-action, cinematic. A low wide shot frames a b-boy in his twenties in a baggy cream tracksuit and a black beanie in the middle of a circle of cheering dancers on a sunlit concrete plaza at golden hour. He drops to the ground and spins into fast windmills, legs sweeping wide, dust kicking up off the concrete, as the camera arcs around him at high speed. [Shot 2] At 00:04.500, the camera cuts to a low close shot: he pops up into a one-hand freeze, legs high in the air, and holds it as the circle erupts behind him, hands flying up. A dancer in the crowd, yelling, (S1) says: <d>[English] Let's go!</d>

overall_soundscape:

Sneakers scuff and squeak on the concrete. His track pants whip through the air. The crowd claps on the beat and roars when he freezes.

non_diegetic_music:

A boom-bap hip-hop beat at 92 beats per minute, hard kick and snare with a scratched horn sample, hitting a cymbal crash on the freeze.

One shot, two ways to write it.How to prompt Hailuo.

Hailuo 2.3 reads prose with camera commands in brackets. H3 Max and Hailuo 03 read a script in three parts. Both takes start from this frame.

A rider on a black motorcycle spins her rear wheel on a rainy rooftop parking deck at night and rides off toward the skyline

This format works on Hailuo 2.3 and 2.3 Fast.

The rider in the black leather jacket flips her helmet visor down [Push in], revs the matte black motorcycle as rain bounces off the tank, and spins the rear wheel, throwing a wall of spray and tire smoke across the neon-lit deck [Truck right]. The bike shoots off toward the city skyline [Tracking shot].

  • 1Write plain prose.
  • 2Put a camera command in square brackets at the point in the sentence where the move happens.
  • 3Commands in one bracket happen together. Separate brackets happen in order.
  • 4Use three commands at most.

Every Hailuo model can start from your photo. Hailuo 03, H3 Max, and H3 Max Turbo also take the frame to end on, and find the way between.

The prompt

integrated_multimodal_description:

[Shot 1] Live-action, cinematic product film. A white high-top sneaker stands alone on a black plinth under one hard white spotlight in a dark studio. A beat of stillness, then the sneaker lifts off the plinth and rises into the light as a huge burst of electric blue paint explodes out around it in slow motion, ribbons and droplets of glossy paint flying in every direction and catching the spotlight. The sneaker stays clean white. The camera trucks right a little to center it.

overall_soundscape:

A low studio hum. A deep whoosh as the sneaker lifts, then a heavy wet splash and paint droplets pattering on the floor.

non_diegetic_music:

A single deep bass hit on the burst, then a rising synth swell.
