What each part of the prompt does
- Opening line
- Length, format and look. Keeps the model on one 15-second film instead of loose clips.
- Timestamps
- One line per beat. Models drop the wheat-field ending when timing is left open.
- Zombie look
- Ashen skin, clouded eyes, dark veins and an explicit “no blood” keep it emotional, not horror.
- Match cut
- “The same leap lands as a hug” is what makes the ending work. Keep that wording.
- Sound
- Ambience and a soft score without lyrics, so you can add any trending sound later.
- Identity line
- Tells the model to keep both faces exact and never swap or merge them.

Zombie love story, couple version
16:9 · Image 1 holds the gun, Image 2 turns
One continuous 15-second cinematic short film, widescreen film look, dramatic natural light, no text, logos or extra characters. 0-4s: Inside a dim, abandoned wooden cabin, a tearful close-up of the survivor from Image 1 aiming a handgun toward the camera, hands shaking; over the shoulder, the person from Image 2, turned into a zombie staggers closer across the room. 4-6s: Extreme close-up of the zombie: pale grey skin, cloudy white eyes, dark veins, bared teeth. No blood, wounds or gore. 6-10s: The survivor lowers the gun, drops it, opens both arms and closes their eyes. The zombie sprints across the cabin and leaps at them. 10-15s: Match cut in mid-air to a golden wheat field at sunset: the same leap lands as a warm hug, the person from Image 2 healthy and alive again, then a slow spin and a smiling close-up. Sound: tense cabin ambience, breathing and heartbeat, then a soft emotional piano score in the wheat field. No dialogue, no lyrics. Keep both identities exact in every shot: match faces, hair, body build and clothing to the reference photos. Do not swap, merge or redesign them.
Zombie pet version
16:9 · Image 1 is you, Image 2 is your dog or cat
One continuous 15-second cinematic short film, widescreen film look, dramatic natural light, no text, logos or extra characters. 0-4s: Inside a dim, abandoned wooden cabin, a tearful close-up of the survivor from Image 1 aiming a handgun toward the camera, hands shaking; over the shoulder, the pet from Image 2, turned into a zombie animal on all fours staggers closer across the room. 4-6s: Extreme close-up of the zombie: pale grey skin, cloudy white eyes, dark veins, bared teeth. No blood, wounds or gore. 6-10s: The survivor lowers the gun, drops it, opens both arms and closes their eyes. The zombie sprints across the cabin and leaps at them. 10-15s: Match cut in mid-air to a golden wheat field at sunset: the same leap lands as a warm hug, the pet from Image 2 healthy and alive again, then a slow spin and a smiling close-up. Sound: tense cabin ambience, breathing and heartbeat, then a soft emotional piano score in the wheat field. No dialogue, no lyrics. Keep both identities exact in every shot: match faces, hair, body build and clothing to the reference photos. Do not swap, merge or redesign them.

Negative prompt
If your tool has a negative prompt field, paste this in:
Things to avoid
Works with every prompt above.
blood, gore, wounds, missing limbs, extra people, face swap, merged faces, distorted hands, text, captions, logos, watermark, cartoon style, dialogue
Fixing common problems
People swapped roles
Upload in the same order every time and keep “survivor from Image 1” in the first shot.
Faces drift
Use front-facing photos with even light, and keep the identity line at the end of the prompt.
No wheat field
Check the total stays at 15 seconds and the 10–15s line is still there.
Too much gore
Add the negative prompt, or remove “bared teeth” from the close-up line.
