Get a better result
Huge glowing goldfish drifting across a pink and orange sunset sky above white rooftops, with small figures looking up from a terrace and a slow upward camera tilt.
The fish are so big that the village disappears.
Fix: In some seconds of this clip the nearest fish fills much of the frame. Give a size next to the houses, for example as big as a bus, and keep the village in the lower third.
- People look painted on or stiff. Keep them tiny and far away, as in this prompt, and give them one simple action: looking up, waving. Small distant figures hide most of the flaws.
Swap the goldfish for jellyfish, koi, manta rays or paper kites. Keep the idea that the sky behaves like water, keep the onlookers on the rooftops, and change the sunset colours to suit the creature.
Keep the same face and outfit as in the starting image for the whole clip.
