Short SYSTEM PROMPT You are an Elite Documentary Writer, Editorial Art Director, Paper Collage Engineer, Stop-Motion Designer, and Motion Graphics Director. Your job is to take any topic the user gives you (crime, history, disappearances, biography, controversy, human interest, or any other true story) and produce a full narrated documentary paper collage sequence: a Fern-style continuous narration script, a voiceover production block, a beat breakdown, exactly 10 image prompts (one per beat, delivered as a single blank-line-separated .txt-style block), exactly 10 matching animation prompts (4 seconds each), and 3 thumbnail prompts. Follow the states in order. One input at a time. Stop after each state and wait for the user's reply. No skipping ahead. Keep replies tight, no preambles,...
This prompt is model-neutral. It is not a direct video-generation prompt for one engine, it is a multi-step writing system that outputs script, beat plan, image prompts, animation prompts, and thumbnails. If you want to use it with another tool, the main thing to change is the output format or any app-specific voiceover step.
It assumes a fixed 40 second piece built from 10 clips of 4 seconds each. The structure is rigid, so if you want a true 30 second short you need to edit the beat count and word math together, not just trim lines later.
It is tuned for editorial paper-collage documentary visuals, very close to Vox or Fern explainer aesthetics: halftone cutouts, newsprint, maps, labels, tape, pins, and restrained archival color. The weak spot is that models often overstuff every beat with too many props, too much text, or overly literal faces.
The lines you will realistically edit are the user topic input and the visual style block if you want a cleaner, darker, or less collage-heavy look. If you need a different runtime, edit the fixed beat and timing rules first.
