Prompt

A fast, upbeat explainer about [topic]. [0-2s] The word "[word 1]" appears center screen in bold [color] type over [background]. [2-4s] Cut: "[word 2]" with [visual metaphor]. [4-6s] Cut: "[short phrase]" while [simple animated diagram]. [6-8s] End card: "[call to action]" on [brand color]. Each word appears with a different animated style. Upbeat electronic beat, a soft click on each cut. No dialogue.

Replace everything in [square brackets] with your own details.

Settings & parameters

gemini-omni-1.1-flash, 9:16 for social or 16:9 for slides
Spell out every piece of text in quotes, including background signage, so nothing comes out garbled

Variations

Rapid-fire facts: "every 1s show a different [thing] with a text label".
Swap the music for a calm voiceover line per beat.

Tips

Timecodes don't need strict syntax; "At 5s the chorus starts" also works.
Keep each on-screen phrase under five words.
