Prompt template

Create a [3-5 second] text-free vertical bakery reel plate for [opening hook / transition / closing hold]. Subject [generic flour dust crossing empty marble / warm window light moving over an empty tray / close abstract butter-paper fold], one motion [specific], camera [specific], palette matching [approved footage], protected upper title and lower menu-action zones. This is atmosphere, not a sellable product shot. No pastry not supplied as an approved reference, no hand, bite, steam, glaze pour, oven action, crowd, queue, menu, price, date, allergen symbol, sold-out cue, word, letter, number, logo, sound or watermark.

Step-by-step workflow

1. Freeze the weekend menu by exact item, variant, portion, price, tax handling, quantity, preorder cutoff, pickup or delivery window, location, allergens, dietary labels, substitutions, and sold-out rule.
2. Capture the actual products under consistent light: hero, tray, crumb, packaging, scale, counter, storefront, and safe staff action clips with food and music rights.
3. Storyboard one opening hook, two or three real menu shots, one generated non-evidentiary transition, and a closing action card that can be updated without regenerating footage.
4. Generate only generic atmosphere or transitions and reject invented pastries, toppings, portions, hands, oven techniques, queues, text, or availability cues.
5. Assemble real product footage with editable item names, prices, allergens, dates, pickup details, location, order link, captions, disclosure, and live stock behavior.
6. Test first-frame clarity, vertical crops, silent viewing, captions, long item names, menu changes, sold-out transitions, delayed posts, link accuracy, accessibility, expiry, and takedown.

Example prompt variants

• Three-second vertical opener: warm morning light slides across an empty floured marble counter, locked camera, protected center title zone, no food, hand, text or logo.
• Four-second transition: one sheet of plain unbranded bakery paper folds gently beside an empty cooling rack, shallow depth of field, no pastry, price, bag mark or word.
• Five-second closing plate: soft focus on the real approved storefront window after service with a quiet lower action zone, no queue, customer, menu board, opening-hours text or availability implication.

Quality checklist

• Item, image, portion, price, quantity, cutoff, pickup or delivery window, location, allergens, dietary labels, substitutions, and stock state match the current approved menu.
• Every purchasable pastry shown comes from real current footage; generated plates are generic and cannot be mistaken for inventory or preparation evidence.
• No invented steam, stretch, filling, glaze, ingredient, portion, hand technique, queue, popularity, freshness, availability, or sold-out state appears.
• Names, prices, dates, allergens, captions, location, CTA, order link, disclosure, and stock messages remain editable, localizable, accessible, and removable.
• Menu source, footage rights, prompt, output, food review, edit, publication time, inventory updates, expiry, and rollback remain traceable.

Mistakes to avoid

• Generating a beautiful pastry that is not on the approved menu and placing it between real products.
• Embedding prices, dates, pickup times, allergens, or sold-out language in video pixels.
• Using steam, dripping filling, oven action, or hand finishing to imply freshness, ingredients, or preparation that was not captured.
• Leaving a Friday teaser live after an item sells out, the menu changes, or the pickup window closes.
