PROMPT

Create a vertical 9:16 photorealistic opening frame for a short video. From a neighboring safe terrace, an ordinary phone records a rooftop swimming pool cantilevered high above a dense city. The transparent glass outer wall, waterline, metal frame, solid building structure and distant skyscrapers far below are clearly distinguishable.

One adult woman over 25, with wet dark hair tied back and a plain dark one-piece swimsuit, relaxes close to the outer wall. Her head, shoulders and arms are above water; the rest of her body is naturally partially obscured and refracted by the water. Her expression is relaxed, and she is not posing for the camera. The pool is full, the water is contained and the glass panel is completely intact.

Keep the woman and pool large enough to read, while retaining the immense drop and skyline. Soft hazy daylight, natural skin texture, wet hair, realistic water and reflections, ordinary phone-video exposure, subtle compression and slightly imperfect handheld framing. A candid real phone-video look, not a glossy advertisement, a 3D render or a beauty-filtered portrait. No cracks, holes, leakage, spray, falling person, other people, text, logos or watermarks.

Create one continuous 15-second vertical 9:16 photorealistic phone video, beginning with the supplied first frame. A woman is relaxing in a transparent rooftop swimming pool suspended high above the city, seen from a neighboring terrace. Keep the same woman, swimsuit, pool, skyline, daylight and camera throughout; natural skin, wet hair, realistic glass and water, with slight handheld movement.

0–2 seconds: The woman floats calmly close to the intact glass wall. Water stays inside the pool. High-altitude wind and gentle water sounds are audible.

2–5 seconds: A dull creak makes her turn toward the wall. Small, irregular fractures develop within one area of the vertical glass. Her expression changes to genuine alarm; she gasps, then lets out a short frightened scream. The glass buckles and breaks outward into irregular pieces, making a jagged opening. A heavy sheet of water begins rushing through it. She reaches for the pool edge and struggles to keep her grip.

5–8 seconds: Water pressure drives a growing torrent through the same opening. Her hands slip and the moving water pulls her through the broken glass wall and completely out of the pool. She reaches back for the rim but misses, with a clearly audible scream of fear.

8–13 seconds: Gravity pulls her rapidly downward beside the building in the cascading water. She turns with the flow, arms reaching, as the handheld camera tilts down to follow. Her frightened scream continues briefly and fades into the distance under the rushing water and wind.

13–15 seconds: Continue looking down as the woman falls farther away and out of view, while water keeps pouring from the same broken pool. Do not show a landing or injuries.

Keep the event physically plausible: irregular glass fractures and fragments, natural body movement and water flowing downwards. No perfectly radial graphic cracks, no glowing lines, no floating, no jumping deliberately, no duplicated people, no beauty filter, no logos or captions. Audio is part of the scene: wind, glass cracking and shattering, a strong rush of water, and the woman's clearly audible gasp and screams at the specified moments. No music, speech or narration.

Building a high-rise pool failure in timed stages

Filmed from a neighboring terrace, an adult woman relaxes beside the clear glass wall of a pool that juts out above a dense city. The glass cracks near the bottom corner, she turns in alarm and grabs the rim as water starts pouring out. The torrent pulls her through the opening and she falls beside the tower with the cascading water while the camera tilts down to follow. The clip ends with her small in the distance and water still pouring; no landing is shown. The opening image fixes the scale: a large, readable swimmer, an intact glass wall and the drop to the streets below. The video prompt splits the failure into timed stages, from the creak and first fractures to the torrent and the fall, and ties the gasp and screams to those moments. Asking for irregular fractures, natural body movement and downward water keeps the event physically plausible, and the closing instruction keeps it free of a landing or injuries.

How to adapt the method

Change the pool, the swimmer or the city in the first-frame prompt, keeping the glass wall, the drop and the neighboring viewpoint. Keep the timed stages in the video prompt and adjust what breaks and how the water moves. Keep the clip ending before any landing. Owner-supplied prompts: the first-frame prompt and the video prompt used for this clip.

How to use this prompt

1
This is an image-to-video recipe. Create the opening image first, then use that output as the input to the video step. Keep the image prompt and motion prompt separate.
2
Open the selected recipe in Studio with its model and starting settings. Check the available version, frame and resolution before generating; a size written in the source prompt is not an output setting or a guarantee.
3
Use the customization fields below to rewrite the brief: Opening frame / Delivered dimensions / Delivered duration. Keep the composition and other constraints that make this example useful. Check the current credit quote before submitting.

What to check in your result

Watch the entire clip. Compare the main action, camera movement and scene continuity with the brief, and check for changing faces, distorted hands or unexpected cuts. A similar prompt can give a different result; refine the motion rather than assuming an exact copy.
