What you will get

A moody drone pull-back over a black sand beach with powerful waves rolling in, basalt sea stacks rising from the surf, foam trailing over the dark sand and a break of golden light in a grey sky.

Why it works

Black sand, white foam and grey sky make a strong three tone palette, and the prompt keeps it moody with one break of light. Sea stacks give the shot a recognisable shape. The slow drone pull-back starts close to the waves and ends showing the coastline, which is how nature films reveal a place.

Common mistake

The sand looks grey or brown.

Fix: Ask for “jet black volcanic sand, wet and shiny”, so the white foam stands out against it.

Also watch for
  • The sea stacks look like smooth boulders. Mention basalt columns and jagged rock pillars, as the tip says, to get the right shapes.
  • The sky is all one flat grey. Keep the break of golden light, a single gap in the clouds that lights part of the sea.
Try a variation: film it in winter

Ask for snow on the cliffs, ice on the sand and a low pink winter sun just above the horizon.

Still not right? Add this and run it again
