Flock Lifting Off the Water
A raft of small wading birds on a lagoon bursts into flight, the camera whipping up after them.

The prompt
Resting on a shallow lagoon, a dense raft of small wading birds suddenly bursts upward in one simultaneous wingbeat, splitting into two streams and settling into a tight turning formation. The camera whips up after them, then holds while they bank against the sky. It is the last ten minutes before sunrise: the water is pale grey, the birds dark against a deep blue band. Fast, urgent energy, slight blur on the nearest wings. Audio: a rush of wingbeats, water splashing, thin calls.

Why it works
The burst lasts a fraction of a second, so the prompt describes it as one simultaneous wingbeat rather than a gradual take-off — that is what stops the flock dissolving into birds leaving one at a time. The camera whips up and then holds, which buys the formation screen time, and 480p suits the soft pre-sunrise tones without hiding the wing blur.
Mode
Most cases are text-to-video and need nothing but the prompt. The ones marked "needs one reference image" are image-to-video: you supply a photo and the prompt keeps that subject or product locked while the camera moves.
