Commercial Ad Storyboard Layout
A highly structured prompt for generating a six-panel commercial storyboard layout with consistent characters and a narrative progression.
Prompt
Create a cinematic commercial storyboard sheet.
LAYOUT:
- Fixed 6-panel grid (2x3), evenly spaced
- Clean white or neutral background
- Each panel clearly separated, no UI, no clutter
GLOBAL STYLE:
- Cinematic realism, high-end commercial look
- Soft controlled lighting, consistent across all panels
- No character or environment drift
STORY ARC (strict order):
1. Setup
2. Tension
3. Product reveal
4. Product interaction
5. Transformation (impact)
6. Clean closing shot
SCENE CONCEPT:
{argument name="story concept" default="A woman lives in a quiet apartment with a tense, unpredictable tiger. The tiger behaves like a domestic cat but carries constant danger. When she serves the product (cat food), the tiger visibly relaxes and transforms into a calm domestic house cat."}
PANEL REQUIREMENTS (for EACH panel include):
- Cinematic frame (clear composition, subject readable)
- Shot / Action (focused on character + product when applicable)
- Camera (shot type, angle, movement)
PRODUCT RULES:
- Product must be sharp, readable, and well-lit in panels 3, 4, 6
- No distortion, no redesign
- Packaging must remain consistent
VISUAL PRIORITIES:
- Strong contrast between tension (tiger) and relief (cat)
- Clear readability in every frame
- No abstract or surreal distortion, grounded realism
TEXT:
- Minimal, small, professional labels only (panel number + short shot note)
- No extra graphics
