Rooftop chase action sequence
This prompt builds a short action sequence from three shots, each with one clear move: a tracking run, a slow-motion leap and a landing close-up. Keep the hero's outfit the same in every shot so she stays consistent.
Action sequence, 16:9, 10 seconds, three shots. Shot 1: shaky tracking shot behind [HERO, e.g. a young woman in a black jacket] sprinting across [SETTING, e.g. rooftops in old Delhi at dusk]. Shot 2: low-angle side shot as she leaps the gap between two buildings, slow motion at the peak. Shot 3: frontal close-up as she lands, rolls and looks back, breathing hard. Dust, washing lines, orange sky, high tension, no weapons. No on-screen text.

Action reads best when each shot has one clear move. Keep the same outfit description in every shot so the hero stays consistent.
Get a better result
A tense ten second chase in three shots: a shaky follow behind your hero sprinting across rooftops at dusk, a slow motion leap between buildings, then a landing roll and a look back, with dust, washing lines and an orange sky.
Action reads best when each shot has one clear move, so the prompt numbers them: run, leap, land. Camera sizes are named for every shot, which tells the model how to frame the story. The no weapons line keeps the scene thrilling but safe for a broad audience.
The hero changes clothes between shots.
Fix: Use the same outfit words in every shot, as the tip says, and add a reference image if you have one.
- The jump looks floaty. Ask for slow motion only at the peak and normal speed for the run up and landing.
- The rooftops look like a generic city. Name the setting clearly and add details like water tanks, satellite dishes and laundry lines.
Set it under city lights with neon reflections and a helicopter searchlight sweeping the roofs.
