The prompt

A lone knight in weathered plate armour rides through the open gate of a stone castle courtyard at first light, reins loose in one gauntlet, a mud-spattered cloak hanging heavy behind. The camera holds a low wide angle, letting horse and rider cross from shadow into sun, then settles as the horse slows to a walk and stops. Low golden sun rakes across wet cobbles, mist lifting off the well. Wool, oiled leather, cold steel, limestone.

They are the real price of that exact configuration — computed with the same pricing engine the API charges with, at the resolution, duration and audio setting shown on the card. Change any of those in the generator and the price updates with it.

Why it works

Period armour fails when a prompt asks for detail the model cannot resolve, so this one names textures a viewer actually recognises — oiled leather, cold steel, wet cobbles — and keeps the action to a single arrival. Crossing from shadow into sun gives the model a built-in reason to change the image without any cut. Audio is off so the shot stays quiet and processional rather than turning into a noisy charge.

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.
