What you will get

A 10-second, three-shot suspense scene in a long corridor: a guest walking away, her face as the far lights go out one by one, then a wide shot of a door creaking open and cold mist drifting out, with no gore.

Common mistake

The three shots blend into one or lose their order.

Fix: Keep the “Shot 1, Shot 2, Shot 3” labels and a short line for each. Repeat “three separate shots, in this order”.

Also watch for
  • The face in the close-up looks distorted. Ask for “a calm, natural face, no strange expression”, and generate a few takes. Close-ups are the part most likely to warp.
  • The clip is too scary for the audience. Follow the tip and keep it mild: slow pacing, creaks and hums, and no figures. Check the age rating of the platform before posting.
Try a variation: library at night

Change the place to “an old library aisle between tall wooden shelves”, with the lights dimming and a book falling from a shelf.

Still not right? Add this and run it again

Keep all three shots. Make the lights go out more slowly in shot two and let the mist in shot three be thicker.
