The prompt

A high-end, deeply cinematic 30-second 3D motion-graphics sequence in refined steampunk and vintage-miniature style, with continuous fluid orbiting and pass-through camera moves. [0-10s] Macro close-up of an antique brass clock face that unfolds layer by layer into meshing rotating gear rings and volumetric fog. The camera pierces down through the gears; a mechanical ornithopter spirals up from a miniature canyon of stacked weathered old books. [10-20s] The camera glides forward tracking the ornithopter, seamlessly passing into a fast-spinning ornate brass zoetrope projecting galloping mechanical-horse light. The light leaps out and the scene becomes a brass floating cable car on glimmering copper rails through a forest of gears, bathed in cinematic golden-hour light. [20-30s] The camera pans elegantly down; below appears an exquisite clockwork wooden sailing ship cutting deep-blue glass-textured waves, which morph into a glowing giant moon with lantern-holding explorer silhouettes trekking a crystal-vein ridge under stars. The camera spirals smoothly back through ethereal clouds to the ticking brass clock face. Hyper-real mechanical textures, rich brass and gold tones, cinematic shallow depth of field, smooth seamless pass-through camerawork, epic fantastical adventure atmosphere.

Why it works

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.
