Prompt template

Create one [4-6 second] [9:16 / 1:1] text-free decorative hook for a board-game cafe tournament reel. Subject [unmarked wooden tokens / blank geometric grid / neutral tabletop light pattern]. Action [one subtle physical movement], camera [one move], light [one setup], stable edit handles. No recognizable game, board layout, card face, rule text, die result, score, player, hand, cafe, crowd, trophy, prize, date, time, address, price, availability, word, logo, voice or watermark.

Step-by-step workflow

1. Freeze organizer and venue approval, game titles and publisher rules, format, rounds, date, time, timezone, address, entry, age guidance, capacity, access, prizes, food policy and cancellation terms.
2. Capture authorized real exterior, interior, tables, organizers, consented players and approved game components with valid releases and correct event context.
3. Assign generated footage only to neutral hooks and transitions that cannot be mistaken for the real game, venue, participants, attendance or match result.
4. Generate one anonymous tabletop material event and one camera move per clip, leaving stable handles for captions and real footage.
5. Assemble verified venue and game assets, schedule, registration status, entry, rules link, accessibility, capacity, prizes, food policy, captions and CTA in editable layers.
6. Review trademark and publisher rules, participant consent, minors, event facts, accessibility, disclosure, audio, links, expiry, results and correction plan before publishing.

Example prompt variants

• Four-second vertical macro of three unmarked wooden discs settling beside a blank geometric grid, locked camera, no recognizable game, number, score, hand or word.
• Five-second empty tabletop hook with one warm pendant-light reflection moving across a clear caption-safe center, no cafe identity, game component, player or prize.
• Four-second abstract card-edge transition using plain color blocks with no faces or symbols, one slow lateral camera move, no deck identity, rules, text or logo.

Quality checklist

• Organizer, venue, game, publisher permissions, format, schedule, entry, age guidance, capacity, accessibility, prizes, food policy and registration state are current.
• Generated clips cannot be mistaken for the actual game, cafe, organizer, player, crowd, match, score, winner, prize or attendance level.
• Anonymous tokens, grid, card-like blocks, lighting, camera motion and edit handles remain physically stable and text-free.
• Event copy, captions, rules link, registration, accessibility, disclosure, expiry, results and correction path are editable and tested.
• Approvals, releases, source footage, prompts, outputs, edit, publication, changes and takedown remain traceable.

Mistakes to avoid

• Generating a recognizable game board, branded component, fake match, winner or enthusiastic crowd as event proof.
• Inventing a rule, format, prize, sponsor, score, publisher approval or registration availability.
• Burning date, time, address, entry fee or capacity into generated video that cannot reflect changes.
• Publishing participants, especially minors, without current scoped consent and a clear withdrawal path.
