What you will get

A city square crowd counting down under a giant clock, then fireworks in gold and silver over the skyline, falling confetti, hugging and cheering, with a camera sweep and the sound of the crowd.

Common mistake

The numbers on the clock and any countdown digits are jumbled.

Fix: Ask for “a clock face with two hands close to twelve, no written numbers anywhere in the shot”. Moving digits are hard for video models.

Also watch for
  • The fireworks start before the countdown ends. Order it by time: “seconds 1 to 3: the clock and the crowd looking up. From second 4: fireworks burst and the confetti falls”.
  • Close faces in the crowd warp when people hug. Show the crowd from behind or from a distance, with hands in the air. It also feels bigger.
Try a variation: balcony

Replace the square with “a family on an apartment balcony, glasses of juice raised, the city fireworks bursting in the distance”. A smaller scene with fewer people keeps the faces stable.

Still not right? Add this and run it again

Show a clock face with no numbers for the first three seconds, then fireworks from second four, and film the crowd from behind with hands in the air.
