What you will get

A cheerful, low camera clip of emperor or king penguins waddling across a bright icy shore, a few sliding on their bellies, chicks huddled together, a distant iceberg and clear cold light, with wind and chirps.

Why it works

Penguins are charming because they look clumsy on land and graceful in water. The prompt focuses on the land side: waddling, belly sliding and huddled chicks. A low camera near the ice puts the viewer at penguin height, and clear cold light with an iceberg in the distance sets the Antarctic scene. Close-ups of waddling, as the tip says, add the humour.

Common mistake

The penguins look the same as cartoon penguins.

Fix: Name the species and its colours, such as “emperor penguins with yellow-orange neck patches”.

Also watch for
  • The belly slide looks like they are swimming. Ask for a penguin dropping onto its belly and pushing with its feet across the ice, flippers out.
  • The chicks are missing or too big. Ask for small, fluffy grey chicks huddled near the adults.
Try a variation: into the sea

Make a second clip of the penguins hopping off the ice edge into the water one after another.
