Quick answer

Use real footage for the exact truck, team, permitted location, dish, portion, preparation, service, menu, price, hours, stock, allergen information, and customer experience. Use Veo 3.1 Fast only for generic decorative hooks such as steam above an unbranded plate, ingredient texture, a simple market-light transition, or an abstract color bridge. Assemble the verified special and booking or location details in editable layers; never present a generated dish, queue, sold-out cue, or service scene as today’s reality.

Prompt template

Create one [4-6 second] [9:16 / 1:1] decorative street-food B-roll shot. Subject: [generic unbranded plated food / ingredient texture / market light / neutral truck detail]. Action: [one physically plausible movement]. Camera: [one move], light: [one setup], with a stable edit handle. No identifiable truck, person, vendor, customer, venue, dish name, menu, price, schedule, location, crowd, sold-out cue, portion claim, ingredient, allergen, certification, review, word, logo, sound, or watermark.

Step-by-step workflow

  1. Freeze today’s real dish, portion, ingredients, allergens, price, tax, availability, hours, location permission, service area, staff releases, offer terms, and destination.
  2. Capture real truck, prep, plated special, team, service window, location, queue if permitted, and current menu details with matched vertical framing.
  3. Assign generated footage only to generic hooks or transitions that cannot be mistaken for today’s truck, dish, team, crowd, or measured result.
  4. Generate one food or light event and one camera move per clip, leaving stable opening and closing frames for editorial control.
  5. Assemble real footage, exact menu name, price, qualifiers, hours, location, allergens, captions, disclosure, audio, and CTA in editable layers.
  6. Review food truth, permits, people, claims, accessibility, crop, location, stock, links, weather plan, corrections, and expiry before posting.

Example prompt variants

  • Four-second vertical macro of gentle steam drifting above an unbranded bowl of plain roasted vegetables, camera locked, no dish name, ingredient claim, price, truck, person or word.
  • Five-second close detail of warm market string lights reflecting across a clean dark truck panel with no badge or window, one slow lateral move, no location, vendor, menu or text.
  • Four-second top-down generic street-food texture shot with one small sauce ripple on an unbranded plate, preserve portion and plate geometry, no hand, ingredient list, review, claim or logo.

Quality checklist

  • Truck, staff, dish, portion, ingredients, allergens, price, tax, availability, hours, location, permits, and offer terms are current and approved.
  • Generated clips cannot be read as proof of today’s dish, preparation, crowd, service speed, location, stock, cleanliness, popularity, or customer result.
  • Food geometry, portion, steam, liquid, reflections, utensils, surfaces, camera, and motion remain physically stable.
  • Menu copy, prices, qualifiers, hours, location, allergens, disclosure, captions, links, and CTA are editable and accessible.
  • Permissions, source footage, prompts, outputs, edit, approvals, publication, corrections, and expiry remain traceable.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Generating the special itself and posting it when the real dish, portion, garnish, or availability differs.
  • Inventing a line of customers, festival venue, staff member, truck branding, or sold-out reaction as social proof.
  • Implying health, ingredient, allergen-free, local, authentic, award, popularity, speed, or value claims without evidence.
  • Burning price, location, hours, stock, weather, or menu details into generated frames that cannot be updated.
