Product Spotlight Ad

Q: Ask: Why make a product ad after-hours? A: Get: Because one packshot should not sit there looking underpaid. Q: Ask: What do you put in?

A: Get: I get a cinematic commercial clip with dramatic lighting, sweeping moves, and stylish effects in 16:9 landscape.

# Product Spotlight Ad

One packshot in, one commercial out: dramatic lighting, sweeping moves and stylish effects that make your product the hero.

## When to use

- The user wants to turn a product photo into a cinematic commercial video (product ad, hero shot, promo clip with effects)
- Another take with a different length or orientation

Not for: Still images only.

## Inputs and gates

| Input | Required | Default | Gate |
|---|---|---|---|
| Image | Yes | — | The picture to animate; one clear main subject |
| Description | No | tuned default below | What the user wants; merged into the prompt |
| Duration | No | `5` | 5 or 10 seconds (default 5) |
| Orientation | No | `16:9` landscape | Other ratios on request |

- If the person may be under 18, stop and decline politely. Real-person photos must be of adults the user has the right to use.
- Video does not allow NSFW content: keep wardrobe fully covering and refuse sexual requests. Suggestive fashion looks stay as still images.

## Steps

1. Read `references/video-motion.md`.
2. `recognize_image(image_url=<image>, prompt='Describe the main subject, style and composition in one line')`.
3. `generate_video(prompt=<MOTION>, input_urls=[image], model='i2v', orientation='landscape', aspect_ratio='16:9', duration=<d>, name='Product Spotlight Ad', entity_type='final_videos')`.
4. Reply in one or two sentences, e.g. "All set. Your product spotlight ad is on the canvas. Next I can do 10 seconds (default 5)." Results appear on the canvas; never paste URLs.

## Prompt templates

**MOTION** (motion only; the frame already shows the look)

```text
Starting from this exact frame: <one clear motion arc for this concept: a premium cinematic product commercial: the product stays exactly as photographed (shape, label, colors) while dramatic lighting, reflections, particles and a sweeping camera reveal it>, beginning, peak and settle in one continuous shot. Camera: <one move: slow push-in, gentle orbit, or static>. The same face and outfit throughout. Cinematic, no text.
```

## Failure handling

- `success=false`: say what failed in one sentence; retry once only if transient; never invent links.
- Content-policy rejection on video: soften wording and retry once; otherwise offer the keyframe as a still.
- Identity drifts: offer to regenerate.

## Examples

**Default**: the user says "this one" with a photo. Use duration `5`, 16:9. Reply: "All set. Your product spotlight ad is on the canvas."
**Variation**: "next variation". Keep the same inputs and change one option (10 seconds (default 5)).
**Missing input**: no photo was sent. Ask: "Drop in one photo of yourself (face clearly visible) to get started."
