What each part of the prompt does
- Product described by materials
- Shape, glass, liquid colour and cap finish give the model enough to keep the bottle the same from frame to frame, and "no label, no text" avoids invented lettering.
- Slow motion for the splash
- Water is where AI video looks best and worst. Slow motion with "droplets hanging in the air" keeps the splash readable instead of a white smear.
- Rim light on dark slate
- A single light from behind outlines the glass and makes the liquid glow, the standard way to light clear bottles.
- A quarter turn only
- A full orbit in 5 seconds is fast enough to warp the bottle. A quarter turn shows depth and keeps the shape stable.
Variations to try
Same idea, one thing changed. These have no clip yet.
Falling petals instead of water A fictional perfume bottle: a heavy square clear glass bottle with pale amber liquid and a matte black cap, no label, no text. Shot 1: soft pink petals fall slowly around the bottle on a pale stone plinth. Shot 2: the camera orbits a quarter turn as the last petals land and a highlight slides across the glass. Setting and light: cream studio backdrop, soft window light from the left. Style: high-end commercial product film, macro detail, pastel tones. Sound: quiet, a soft breath of air. Duration: 5 seconds, vertical 9:16.
Wide header for a website A fictional perfume bottle: a heavy square clear glass bottle with pale amber liquid and a matte black cap, no label, no text, placed on the right third of the frame. Motion: a thin sheet of water flows across wet black slate and parts around the bottle in slow motion. Camera: locked off, low angle, empty dark space on the left for text. Setting and light: dark studio, soft rim light from behind. Style: high-end commercial product film, crisp focus on the glass. Sound: running water. Duration: 5 seconds, 16:9.
If the result isn't right
- To show your own bottle, upload a clean photo of it as the start frame and replace the first line with "the bottle in the start frame".
- If the bottle bends or melts during the splash, drop the orbit and keep the camera still.
- Change the slate and liquid colour to match your brand palette rather than asking for a logo, which video models still render poorly.
